9 Operation ECA piano STANDARD On/off with light switch or separate switch (both to be provided by the customer). Fan switches on/off immediately when the switch is pressed. ECA piano TC with adjustable overrun time On/off with light switch or separate switch (both to be provided by the customer). Fan switches off when, after activating the switch, the overrun time has elapsed. Overrun time of approx. 3...25min., factory setting: approx. 6Min. ECA piano H with humidity control and ad- justable overrun time Function different, depending on connection vari- ant. Variant 1: Fan switches on automatically when the relative room humidity in the area of the fan exceeds the preset switching point. Switching off takes place after the humidity has fallen below the switching point and the set overrun time has elapsed. With additional switch S1, the fan can be taken out of operation. Variant 2: Fan switches on automatically via hu- midity control (as in variant 1) or manually via light switch. With a relative room humidity over the switching point, the fan can no longer be switched off, not even with the light switch. The fan switches off when the room humidity in the area of the fan is under the switching point and the overrun time has elapsed. 10 Maintenance The unit is maintenance-free. 11 Cleaning Clean fan regularly, especially after it has not been used for a long time. NOTICE Risk of damage to unit if incorrect cleaning agent is used. Only clean the cover(s) using water. Do not use aggressive cleaning agents.

1. Only use a dry cloth to clean the internal parts

2. If the cover is very dirty, carefully remove it

and clean with water.

12 Fault rectification Fault finding only by qualified electrician. Call on the services of a qualified electrician any time there is a fault. Repairs should only be carried out by a qualified electrician. Fault Cause, measures Fan does not switch on. No mains voltage. Check whether the mains fuse has failed. Switch on if necessary. Fan does not switch off. Overrun time (max. 25 min.). Wait for overrun time and reduce if neces- sary. Motor’s thermal over- load protection switches the fan off. Motor too hot. Wait until the motor has cooled down. Cool-down time can be up to 10 minutes. Unit switches back on automatically after cool- ing down. Fan does not switch off or fan switches on when not wanted. A high-impedance voltage is present at terminal L1 due to a glow lamp in the con- trol switch, cables laid in parallel (induction) or transformers or other electrical com- ponents. Recommenda- tion: Wire X2 capacitor (220 nF/ 250 V) to zero. 13 Spare parts In case of questions, please contact: Maico Elektroapparate-Fabrik GmbH Steinbeisstraße 20 78056 Villingen-Schwenningen, Deutschland Tel.
