J. foot K. fan mounting knob L. shaft pin Unplug from the wall socket! Remove the fan mounting knob (only Vento 12&16) and the grid mount from the motor shaft. Position the rear grid on the appropriate pins. Screw it tight with the grid mount. Push the fan as far as possible onto the motor shaft. Vento 12 and 16: ensure that the pins enter the grooves and tighten the fan with the fan mounting knob by tightening it anti-clockwise. Check that the fan rotates freely if you turn it by hand. Open the grid locking ring a little by loosening the screw a bit. Place the front grid on the rear grid so that the grid locking ring correctly encloses the edges of the grids; the grids firmly against each other! Then tighten the grid locking ring firmly with the screw. Check that everything is properly lined up.13 Run the electric cable through the hole in the foot. Mount the pedestal on the foot, so that the protrusions on the pedestal enter the cut always in the foot. Now screw the pedestal to the foot; the electrical cable will now run through its guides. Important Do not use the fan in a bathroom or wet area. Find a stable, horizontal place for the fan in the vicinity of a wall socket. Ensure that the fan is not within the reach of children. Never stick objects through the grid. Always unplug the fan from the wall socket before you move it or carry out maintenance on it! Operation The fans can be set to different speeds: The Vento 9 has two settings; the Vento 12 & Vento 16 have three settings. All types of fan are equipped with an oscillation function (75°). If you would like to angle the fan upwards or downwards, the motor block can be angled further up or down in relation to the foot. Before doing so, however, turn off the fan and remove the plug from the socket! If - the fan has been fully assembled - all connections have been properly secured - all safety guidelines have been taken into account you can use the fan. I - Insert the plug into the socket. II – Select setting: 0=off, 1=standard, 2=strong (Vento 12&16: 3=extra strong). The output buttons on the (T) models are located on the base; they can be found on the button unit on the (S) models. The fan will now begin to work. III – If required, you may now depress the oscillation button on top of the motor: the fan will now begin to oscillate through an angle of 75°. Depressing and releasing this button will turn the oscillation function off. Make sure that hair, clothes, curtains etc. cannot be sucked into the spinning fan! Press the 0 button to switch the fan off. If you wish to turn the device off for longer than just a few minutes, you must also remove the plug from the socket. Cleaning and maintenance Switch the fan off and remove the plug from the socket if you wish to clean the device or perform maintenance. The fan only needs general, exterior maintenance. Dust it regularly with a soft cloth or duster or use a vacuum cleaner with a soft brush to clean. If it is very dirty, open the grille and clean grilles and blades using a soft, damp cloth and a mild household cleaning agent. Dry everything thoroughly and allow the fan to dry properly before reassembling and using again. Ensure that water does not come into contact with anything other than the grille and blades.14 Never rinse or spray the fan! In order to prevent material discolouration or deformities, never use aggressive or corrosive (cleaning) products. Rub a little oil on the motor shaft at the end of the season to prevent rust. If the fan is to be stored at the end of the season, repack in its original packaging: this offers the best protection. Store it in a safe and dry place that is not subject to extremes of heat or cold. Problems and solutions The fan blades do not rotate even though the device is switched on Is the plug in the socket? Is there power to the socket? Is the blade blocked, e.g. by damage, a deformity on the grille or a foreign object? There is strange noise when starting Check to ensure the blades are placed as far over the motor axle as possible. Check whether the blades have become deformed and are touching the protective grille.

Warning: Repairs must be carried out by qualified engineers. This also applies to
