PRIOR TO PERFORMING ANY TECHNICAL MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR DISCONNECT THE FAN FROM THE POWER MAINS AND WAIT 

UNTIL ITS ROTATING PARTS COME TO A COMPLETE STOP. 

The technical maintenance includes periodic cleaning of the surfaces from accumulated dust and dirt. 

Use a soft dry brush or a vacuum cleaner to remove dust. The impeller blades require thorough cleaning once in 6 months. 

Detach air ducts from the fan before starting maintenance works. Clean the impeller blades with a soft cloth wetted in mild water 

detergent solution. Avoid liquid dripping on the motor and the temperature controller. In case of any problems related to the fan 

switching or operation, it is recommended to use a troubleshooting table to eliminate the faults.

TECHNICAL MAINTENANCE

DISCONNECT THE UNIT FROM POWER SUPPLY BEFORE ANY MAINTENANCE 

OPERATIONS!

ENSURE THAT THE UNIT IS SWITCHED OFF FROM THE SUPPLY MAINS BEFORE 

REMOVING THE GUARD.

AVOID LIQUID SPILLS ON THE MOTOR! DO NOT USE AGGRESSIVE SOLVENTS AND 

SHARP OBJECTS FOR CLEANING!

PRIOR TO COMMENCING ANY TECHNICAL MAINTENANCE PUT UP A PROHIBITORY 

SIGN ON THE FAN STARTING PANEL: 

“DO NOT SWITCH ON! MEN AT WORK!”

SETTING THE THERMOSTAT (0-90 °C)

Run the heating unit (fireplace) with medium flame intensity (at medium temperature) for some time. 
The factory setting of the thermostat is +45 °C. 
The fan will start running when the air temperature passing through the fan r45 °С. 
At a lower thermostat setting (e.g. +30 °C), the fan will start earlier. 
At a higher thermostat setting (e.g. + 60 °C), the fan will start later, but the air supplied through the diffusers may be too hot. 
When the fire in the fireplace goes out, the temperature of the air passing through the fan drops below the value set on the thermostat, 
and the fan turns off automatically.
