SPECIFICATIONS

CONTROLS & OPERATION

INSTALLATION METHOD

After the product is taken out of the package, it can be used immediately by just plugging it in.

Use of each function

• When it is first powered on, the buzzer beeps twice and the device will enter standby mode, with all function indicators off. All buttons will be inactive except for the "On/Off" button.

• “On/Off”:

In standby mode, press this key to turn the unit into working mode. The power indicator and speed indicator light will turn on at the same time, and the current speed will be displayed. When the unit is first turned on, the setting is at low speed and wind mode is in the normal mode. When the power is on, press this button to shut down. The buzzer will beep. When the device is shut down, the system will return to the standby state without any output or display.

• “Left-Right” Oscillation

In working mode, press to turn on/off the horizontal oscillation, and the corresponding LED indicator will light up.

• “Up-Down” Oscillation

In working mode, press to turn on/off the vertical oscillation, and the corresponding LED indicator will turn on.

Note: After powering on for the first time, the motor needs to swing downward to find the original point first. The horizontal blades may close for about 10 seconds and then swing upwards, which is normal.

When no oscillation is not turned on, the horizontal blade will swing to the horizontal position and stop.

• “Timer”

This is used to activate the timing function with a time range of 1-9 hours. The time duration increases by hours and is shown on the digital display. In working mode, press this key to set the power off time of the unit. The timer indicator and time indicator will turn on and the digital display will flash to show the set time, indicating that the timer is activated. At this moment, you can press the timer key to set a different timing and press any button (except On/Off) or wait 5 seconds to exit the setting. After setting the timer, the digital display will alternately show the set timing and the current wind speed at 10 seconds intervals, and the wind speed indicator and time indicator will light on accordingly. When the time lapse set reaches its end, the unit will shut down and enter standby mode.

• “Mode”

Press to select different wind modes in the following sequence: normal → natural → sleep, and the corresponding LED indicator will turn on. There is no indicator for normal mode.

Normal mode: the fan runs at a fixed speed selected without any change.

Natural mode: the fan speed fluctuates between low, medium and high on a random pattern.

In the natural mode, the LED indicator shows the selected mode; the speed indicator will only show the initial wind speed; other changes during natural mode will not show (i.e., if the natural mode is turned on high speed, the speed indicator will only show the high indicator without switching).

Sleep mode: Regardless of the speed set before selecting sleep mode, the sleep wind mode will start on the current setting. The wind speed will start lowering in 30 minutes intervals, and the speed LED indicator will show the speed changes at the same time until the lowest speed is reached. If there is a timer set at the same time, once the timing interval is over the unit will shut down.

• “Cooling”

In working mode, press to turn on/off the cooler function, and the corresponding LED indicator will turn on.

• "Screen off” (only on remote)

In working mode press for all the LED indicators to turn off.

Press again on the remote or press any button on the unit’s control panel when the LED display is off to turn it back on, then press any other button to execute the corresponding function.

Notes

• There is a low water level sensor and alarm: After the water pump works for 60s, and the software detects that the water level is low for 5 consecutive seconds (65 seconds in total), the water pump will stop working and unit will beep 10 times.
• If there is no activity on the control panel while in working mode for 1min the indicator lights will dim automatically and will return to regular brightness once you press any button on the control panel again.
• In case of power loss, the unit’s memory function will restart the unit with the previous setting once energy it’s recovered.
• If the unit is turned off and on manually, it will restart on medium wind speed and then switch to the previous speed setting after 3 seconds.
• If the unit is in sleep mode before turning off (manually or by power outage), the memory function will not restart on previous mode, but will restart in normal mode.

Water filling

• If the cooling and humidification functions are turned on, please add water to the water tank. Before adding water, unlock the water tank knob by rotating the knob to a horizontal position. After the water tank is half drawn out, slowly pour the water into the water tank (Fig. 1, Fig. 2, Fig. 3). After adding the water, return the water tank into its original position, and then lock the water tank knob rotating it to its original vertical position.

When adding water manually, please pay attention to the water level displayed on the water tank (Fig.5).

• When adding water, please be careful not to fill above the maximum water level or below the minimum water level. Be careful when using an ice pack since it can affect the water level on the tank.
• Be sure to use clean water.
• Tip: It is normal if there is a slight smell and the water is slightly colored when the unit is used for the first time. It is non-toxic and harmless, and will not affect your health.

Use of remote control

• First, open the battery cover on the back of the remote control and install a 3V CR2032 battery.
• When using the remote, point it toward the control panel, which has a receiver on the far right of the panel.
• When the battery is low, please replace it immediately. Dispose of batteries properly and keep them away from children. Please note that even used batteries could be hazardous.

Caster Wheels Installation

• Step 1: Lay unit on its back
• Step 2: Push in the caster wheels with even pressure into the openings

Note:

The wheels can be hard to slide in, make sure to use enough force to slide fully into place.
