Remove the unit from its packaging and check to make sure it is in good condition before using. 

 

Do not let children play with parts of the packaging (such as plastic bags). 

 

Close supervision is necessary when the product is used by or near children or infirm persons. Do 
not allow children to use it as a toy. 

 

Do not operate any product with a damaged cord or plug, or after the product malfunctions, or is 
dropped or appears damaged in any way. Return the complete product to the place of purchase 
for inspection, repair or replacement. 

 

Before unplugging the power cord, be sure to turn the power off. When touching the unit, be 
sure your hands are dry to prevent electrical shock. 

 

Never install the unit where it is exposed to direct sunlight, excessive moisture/rain, dust and lack 
of ventilation near any heat sources. 

 

Avoid making contact with moving parts. Never insert fingers, pencils or any other objects 
through the guards whenever the power plug is connected, especially while the unit is working.

 

 

Always place the fan on a stable, level surface when operating to prevent the fan from 
overturning. Do not run the power cord under carpet. Do not cover the power cord with throw 
rugs or runners. Route the power cord away from walking paths so that nobody can trip over it. 
The cable should be kept away from heat, sharp edges and oil. 

 

To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not immerse or expose the product or flexible cord to 
rain, moisture or any liquid other than those necessary for correct operation of the product.

Switch off and unplug from outlet when not in use, before assembling or disassembling parts and 
before cleaning. Remove by grasping the plug - do not pull on the cord. 

 

Be sure that no other high current appliances are plugged into the same circuit as your fan, as an 
overload can occur. 

 

Avoid the use of an extension cord as the extension cord may overheat and cause a risk of fire. 

 

Do not use the appliance for other than its intended use. 

 

Do not use outdoors. FOR INDOOR USE ONLY.
