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.
