Basic safety precautions must be observed when using electrical devices. To avoid the danger of burns, electric shocks, fires and/or personal injury, please carefully read through this instruction manual before using the device for the first time and observe all instructions when using the device.

Please keep this instruction manual in a safe place for future reference.

When this device is passed on to another person, please also supply this instruction manual with the device.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

• Only connect the device to a plug that has been installed in accordance with regulations.
  Do not use any desk socket or extension cable.
  The voltage specified on the nameplate of the device must correspond to that of your mains supply.
• Be careful that there is no risk of the power cord causing a trip hazard during operation of the device.
• Be careful that there is no risk of the device itself becoming a trip hazard during operation.
• Keep the device, power cord and mains plug away from hot surfaces and naked flames as well as from sharp edges. Be careful during operation to ensure that the cable does not become jammed (e.g. in doors).
• Never touch the device, power cord and mains plug with moist or wet hands.

• Never immerse the device, power cord and mains plug in water or other liquids. There is a risk of fatal electric shock!

• When you pull out the plug, always grip the plug and never the cable.
  The device is only intended for use in living areas. Do not use it in damp locations or outside.

• Do not use the device near sources of hear or naked flames.
• Never leave the device unsupervised when in operation or when plugged into the mains.
• Do not prop the device on people or animals. Risk of injury!
• Be careful during operation to ensure no hair, loose clothing or body part comes in the vicinity of the rotor blades or other moving parts.
• Do not use the device in a location where there is an open fire e.g. fireplace), naked flames (e.g. candles), flammable gases, liquids or dust. Risk of explosion and fire!
• Never insert any object or body part into the openings! Be careful to ensure that the rotor blades and safety grill do not become blocked by objects or impurities. If blockages are found, do not use the device. Blocked openings can lead to the motor overheating and consequently being damaged.
• Never use the power cord to carry the device.
• Never use the device on uneven surfaces and avoid tilting the device during use (e.g. on stairs).

WHEN USING FOR FIRST TIME / OPERATING THE DEVICE

GB

WHEN USING FOR FIRST TIME

• Take all the device components out of the packaging and remove all packaging material and enclosures.
• Remove the screws from the rest foot parts.
  Assemble the rest foot together in the shape of a cross.
• Place the pedestals with the rest foot connector onto the assembled rest foot. Be careful to ensure the holes in the connector are correctly aligned over the screw threads of the rest foot.
• Insert the screws through the holes and thereby connect the rest foot to the pedestals. Ensure the screws are screwed tightly. CAUTION: the screws must not be canted!
• Loosen the blocking ring by turning anti-clockwise and then pull it completely away from the pedestals. Insert the pedestal cover with the rectangular spaces underneath and over the pedestals. Pull out the inner tube. Now reposition the blocking ring over the pedestals and turn it to secure it (clockwise).
• Push the control firmly onto the inner tube. Use one hand to keep the inner tube steady, to ensure that it does not get pushed downward under the pressure. Turn and secure the fixing screws in place.
• Remove the rubber protection from the motor spindle shaft. Screw in the retaining ring of the motor spindle.
• Position the rear safety guard on the motor. Be careful when doing so to ensure the vertical squares of the safety guard are positioned over the plastic nipples of the motor. Also ensure that the bore in the area of the safety guard is pointing downward. Now screw the retaining ring back onto the motor spindle and ensure it is secured.
• Now insert the impeller onto the motor spindle. Be careful to ensure that the squares on the inner sides of the impeller are positioned over the diagonally situated splint of the motor spindle.

• Screw the fixing screws of the impeller onto the motor spindle. CAUTION: the fixing screws are screwed in an anti-clockwise direction, namely to the left! Keep the impeller secured while doing so.

• Place the front safety guard onto the rear safety guard. To do so, attach a connector to the top of the rear safety guard. Be careful when doing so to ensure both the lower holes of the safety guard are aligned. Insert screws in front through both holes and secure these with the screw nut. Now lock the four clamping devices in place to ensure both safety guards are securely connected.

1. Plug the device into the mains. The operating light (POWER) lights up in red.
2. By loosening the blocking ring on the pedestals, the inner tube can be adjusted to the desired height. Subsequently, ensure the blocking ring is resecured in place.
3. By loosening the side impeller screw under the motor, the tilt angle of the impeller blades can be adjusted. When you have reached the desired angle, secure the impeller screw back in place.
4. The device offers the following functions:

Slow speed
Medium speed
Fast speed
Horizontal motor swing with impeller blade

1. Press the "on / speed" button. The fan starts at a low speed. The speed can be altered by further pressing the "on / speed" button. The chosen speed is then indicated via a red light next to the specified speed, namely "low" (slow), "mid" (medium) and "high" (fast).
2. The swing function is operated by pressing the "swing" button. The swing function can only be activated while the fan is in operation. Pressing the "swing" button again stops the function. The fan remains in the new setting.

1. The time switch function can only be activated while the fan is in operation. The programmable time interval starts at 30 minutes. Pressing the "timer" button again allows various time periods to be selected. The chosen time setting is then indicated via a red light showing the selected time span (0.5 h, 1h, 2h and 4h). Once the time has elapsed, the fan switches itself off.
2. If you wish to switch the fan off manually, press the "off" button.

NOTE: After the fan has been switched off or switched itself off via the time-switch function, the last speed setting made remains in memory. If unplugged, however, the last speed setting made will be erased and the ventilator will restart with slow speed the next time it is used.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
