WARNING: This fan is equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). The plug is in-
tended to fit into a power outlet only one way, with the wide blade in the wide slot. 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 does not fit, contact
a qualified electrician.
DO NOT DEFEAT THE SAFETY PURPOSE OF THE POLARIZED PLUG.

ASSEMBLY
1. First, put the pillar together (c). The pillar is made of two separate halves. Make sure to pass the power
cord (b) through the middle of the pillar before snapping the pillar pieces together and securing them with
the included screws.
2. Now, attach the pillar (c) to the fan body using the included pillar screws.
3. Next, put the fan base (d) together. Like the pillar the fan base is made up of two separate halves. Make
sure to pass the power cord (b) through the middle of the fan base prior to sliding the base pieces together.
There is a groove on the bottom of the fan base for the power cord. Make sure this groove is aligned with
the back of the fan prior to attaching the fan base to the pillar.
4. Once the groove on the bottom of the fan is aligned, attach the fan base using the included base screws.
5. Last, pass the cord through the groove on the fan base (d).

The numbers in (parentheses) refer to Fig. 2 on the next page.
POWERING ON THE FAN (1)
The fan can be turned on by pressing the POWER button on the fan control panel or using the
supplied remote control. The POWER button is also used to turn the fan off.
FAN SPEED (2)
Press the SPEED button to select Low (L), Medium (M), or High (H) fan speed.
OSCILLATION (3)
The fan can operate in oscillation or stationary mode. Press the OSCILLATE button on the
control panel or remote control to start oscillation. To turn Oscillation off, simply press the
OSCILLATE button once more.
WIND MODES (4)
Press the MODE button on the fan control panel or remote to select one of the three wind
modes. When the fan is initially powered-on, the default wind mode (normal) is selected. Press
the MODE button once to select Natural wind mode (M1), and twice to select Rhythm wind
mode (M2). During Natural wind mode, the fan will simulate the airflow of the wind by
randomly cycling through its 3 fan speeds. Rhythm wind mode will cycle through the fan
speeds in order of Low, Medium, and High.
TIMER (5)
The fan can be programmed to automatically shut-off after a set period of time. The timer can
be set for 30 minute increments. The maximum programmed time is 7.5 hours. To start the
Timer, press the TIMER button on the control panel or the supplied remote. Each press of the
TIMER button will increase the timer by 30 minutes. Once the Timer button is pressed, a green
LED light on the front of the fan will light up according to the selected time. If more than one
LED light is lit, the timer is programmed for the sum of the times represented by the LED
lights. If all timer lights are lit, then the fan will be programmed for the maximum 7.5 hours.

CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
1. Turn the fan off and unplug the unit.
2. Wipe the fan down with a damp cloth for most efficient operation.
3. Air dry the fan completely before use.

housing.
STORAGE
If the fan will not be used for a long period of time, store it in a cool, dry location when not in use. To
prevent dust and dirt build-up, use the original packaging to repack the unit.
OVERHEAT PROTECTION
A thermostat is built-in to the motor to prevent overheating. If the fan temperature exceeds the limit on the
thermostat, the fan will automatically shut-off to prevent overheating and protect the fan components from
damage.

The supplied remote uses 2 “AAA” batteries. The remote will work at a distance of roughly 25 feet, and an
angle of 60°.
