OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS

BACKLIT DISPLAY

This product has a backlit display to improve visibility. The backlit display will go on 
automatically when you first plug in the fan and remain on for about five seconds 
before automatically shutting off. The same thing will happen if you touch any button 
on the unit or remote control.

SETTING THE CLOCK

When you first plug in your fan, the digital clock will read “12:00”. To set to correct 
time, push SPEED button on unit or remote to set the correct hour. Push TIMER 
button on unit or remote to set the correct minute. If power is interrupted for any 
reason, you will need to manually reset the clock to the correct time.

NOTE:

  This is a 24 hour time display. For example, if you want to set the clock to 8pm 

you need to set the display to read “20:00”.

pattern will change cyclically every 30 minutes.

If fan is on HIGH fan speed when SLEEP wind is activated, unit will operate in HIGH 
rhythm airflow pattern for 30 minutes, switch to MEDIUM rhythm airflow pattern for 
30 minutes and to LOW rhythm airflow pattern where it will remain.
If fan is on MEDIUM fan speed when SLEEP wind is activated, unit will operate in 
MEDIUM rhythm airflow pattern for 30 minutes then switch to LOW rhythm airflow 
pattern where it will remain.
If fan is on LOW fan speed when SLEEP wind is activated, unit will operate in LOW 
rhythm airflow pattern where it will remain.

NOTES:  

All three fan speeds will be reached regardless of whether you are in HIGH, 
LOW or MEDIUM rhythm airflow patterns. In addition to the NATURAL and 
SLEEP wind modes, there is also a GENERAL wind mode   which is the 
default when you turn on your fan. In the GENERAL wind mode, there will be 
constant output airflow at the speed you selected.
