5. Safety
Reverse polarity protection ensures protection of the fan if the input supply is
connected in the reverse way.
Overcurrent protection ensures protection against short circuit or damage to the
motor.
The Sirocco II Elite is equipped with Rotor-Lock protection. This feature protects
the fan from overheating by automatically turning
off
the motor should an object
obstruct the blade from spinning as it would under normal operation. The fan will
automatically restart the motor every 30 seconds until the obstruction to the blade
is removed and the blade is able to rotate normally.
If the fan is operating when a power outage occurs, it will automatically restart at
the lowest speed setting when power is restored.
6. Warnings
To ensure your safety and the life of the fan, please observe the following:
• Do not position the fan too closely to any object or material that may be sucked
or drawn into the blade.
• Do not allow any object to obstruct or stop the spinning of the blade. Inhibiting
the blade’s ability to spin may result in a shortened lifespan.
• Do not use outdoors.
• Do not use on wet surfaces or immerse in water.
• Do not allow water, cleaning products or other liquids to be sprayed onto the
fan’s motor housing or controls.
• Do not use if the power supply cord becomes frayed, brittle or damaged.
• Do not use gasoline, thinners or other harsh chemicals to clean the fan.
• Do not use near
fireplaces,
furnaces, stoves or mechanical equipment that
produce excessive heat.
• This fan is not to be used by persons (including children) with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they
have been given supervision or instruction.
• Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the fan.
