OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Your fan is equipped with the technologically advanced 1Touch™

thermostat. You can set the fan from either the main housing or the

remote control to run continuously in manual mode or set the

1Touch™ thermostat to your desired temperature setting. The

1Touch™ thermostat will automatically turn the fan ON or OFF

depending on the preset comfort level. The comfort level ranges

between 60° and 80° Fahrenheit. 
• Plug the fan into a 120V AC electrical outlet
• Set the individual fan motors on either INTAKE, EXHAUST or for AIR

EXCHANGE have one lever on intake and one lever on exhaust

housing or on the remote control once for the High setting and press

either button twice for the Low setting

1 TOUCH THERMOSTAT INSTRUCTIONS

Thermostat, continue to press the

button until the desired temperature is reached. When ambient

temperature drops below the set temperature, the fan will stop. When

the outside temperature rises above the set point, the fan will turn on

automatically.

preset temperature. To prevent the unit from cycling, you need

to raise the thermostat setting.

vious temperature setting after the unit has been turned off. However
