Important Safeguards
Warning!
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always
be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and injury to
persons, including the following:
• READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS APPLIANCE.
• To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, DO NOT use this fan with any solid-
state speed control device.
• Keep unit away from heated surfaces and open flames.
• Keep the cord away from heavy traffic areas. DO NOT let the cord hang over
the edge of a table or counter. To avoid fire hazard, NEVER put the cord under
rugs, near heaters, radiators or stoves.
• To avoid fire or shock hazard, plug the appliance directly into a 120 Volt AC
electrical outlet.
• To protect against electrical hazards, DO NOT immerse in water or other liquids.
Do not use near water or place near a window where rain may enter and come
in contact with the unit.
• Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children, or
by disabled persons.
• DO NOT operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug, if motor fan fails
to rotate, after the appliance malfunctions, or if it has been dropped or damaged
in any manner.
• DO NOT attempt to repair or adjust any electrical or mechanical functions on this
unit. Doing so will void your warranty. Return the appliance to the manufacturer
for examination, electrical or mechanical adjustment, or repair.
• DO NOT operate in the presence of explosive and/or flammable fumes.
• Use appliance only for its intended household use as described in this manual.
Any other use not recommended by the manufacturer, such as commercial or
industrial use, may cause fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.
• DO NOT use outdoors.
• Always unplug the fan before assembly or disassembly, when moving from one
location to another, before cleaning, or whenever the fan is not in use.
• To disconnect, grip the plug and pull it from the wall outlet. Never pull on the
cord.
• Always use on a dry, level surface.
• Avoid contact with moving parts. DO NOT operate without fan grills properly in
place.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!
WARNING
: This fan is equipped with a polarized alternating current line plug (one
blade is wider than the other). This plug fits into the power outlet only
one way. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug
fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug still fails to fit,
contact an electrician to replace the obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the
safety purpose of the polarized plug.
