Operation of your Animated Airblown

weather conditions, such as a gentle rain or snowfall is
recommended. However, operation of your Animated

10. What if water has soaked my unit while unplugged?
Move the unit to a dry location and plug in the unit. The
fan will dry the Animated Airblown

.
11. My Animated Airblown
TM
has been deflated and it
is covered with snow. Can I simply re-inflate it?
If your Animated Airblown
TM
is covered in a light dusting
of snow, simple re-inflation should not harm the unit.
However, if the deflated unit has been subjected to a
large amount of snow and/or ice, do NOT attempt to
re-inflate. Rather, carefully remove the item from the
extreme condition (i.e. bring it indoors) and allow the
unit to thaw before re-inflating. This helps prevent
cracks and/or tears in the materials.

Operation of your Animated Airblown

heavy snow, rain or windstorms is not recommended
