Automatic
A wall thermostat controls the automatic vent
and power of the fan. The system operates from
12 Volt DC power.
Fan Operation:
Ensure house batteries are on.
Turn on the battery cut-out switch.
Press the vent cover knob into the
Automatic
position.
Use the wall switch to raise the vent
cover. The vent cover must be open at
least 2" before the fan will run.
Turn power knob clockwise to turn fan
on. The power knob also adjusts fan
speed.
NOTE
To override the automatic setting, pull
the vent cover knob out to the manual
position and close vent. The fan blade
will stop spinning when the vent is
closed.

WARNING
DO NOT hold switch after the motor
has stopped. This may cause damage to
the automatic lift system resulting in a
stuck vent.
NOTE
The safety switch built into the fan will
not allow the fan blade motor to operate
unless the vent is open 2
" or more.
Tips for Fan Operation:
Operate the fan to reduce condensation
inside the motorhome. Condensation
occurs naturally from fluctuations in
interior and exterior temperatures,
humidity, steam from cooking. Shower
use is another source of condensation.
If the fan fails to operate, check for a
blown fuse either in the house fuse panel
or the 4 Amp fuse on the fan.
To remove the screen, loosen the screws
holding the screen in place. Use a
non-abrasive soap and water to clean and
reinstall.
Slightly open windows on the shaded
side of the motorhome to create the
most airflow, especially on hot, sunny
days. Direct airflow by slightly opening
selected windows. Maximum airflow is
achieved between an open window and
the Fantastic Vent.

NOTE
DO NOT leave the fan switch in the
active mode while the motorhome is
stored or unattended for extended
periods. High winds, unusual conditions
or obstructions may prevent the fan
cover from fully closing, resulting in
leakage and serious damage.
BeDroom ceIlIng fan (not on all UnItS)
A bi-directional 12 Volt DC powered ceiling
fan is located in the bedroom. Place the
switch in the up position to move the blades
counterclockwise and push air down (for cooling
in summer). Place the switch in the down
position to move the blades clockwise and pull
air up (for warming in winter). Turn the fan off
before reversing fan blade direction.
Fan operation is controlled by a switch next to
the bed and has three positions: Off, High Speed,
and Low Speed. The battery cut-out switch must
be on for the ceiling fan to operate.
Periodic maintenance consists of cleaning the
blades with a soft cloth towel or a vacuum to
remove dust build up.
CAUTION
DO NOT enter into fan
path when on. Serious
injury can occur. 030832k
