PARTS DESCRIPTION

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

CAUTION: Always be sure that the appliance is switched off and the battery cartridge is removed before adjusting or checking the function on the appliance.

Installing or removing battery cartridge

CAUTION: Hold the appliance and the bat-tery cartridge firmly when installing or removing battery cartridge. Failure to hold the appliance and the battery cartridge firmly may cause them to slip off your hands and result in damage to the appliance and battery cartridge and a personal injury.

To remove the battery cartridge, slide it from the appliance while sliding the button on the front of the cartridge.

To install the battery cartridge, align the tongue on the battery cartridge with the groove in the housing and slip it into place. Insert it all the way until it locks in place with a little click. If you can see the red indicator on the upper side of the button, it is not locked completely.

CAUTION: Always install the battery cartridge fully until the red indicator cannot be seen. If not, it may accidentally fall out of the appliance, causing injury to you or someone around you.
CAUTION: Do not install the battery cartridge forcibly. If the cartridge does not slide in easily, it is not being inserted correctly.

If it is hard to slide the battery cartridge out, push it from the backside while sliding the button on the front of the cartridge.

Indicating the remaining battery capacity

Press the check button on the battery cartridge to indi-cate the remaining battery capacity. The indicator lamps light up for a few seconds.

NOTE: Depending on the conditions of use and the ambient temperature, the indication may differ slightly from the actual capacity.

Appliance / battery protection system

The appliance is equipped with a protection system. This system automatically cuts off power to the motor to extend appliance and battery life. The appliance will automatically stop during operation if the appliance or battery is placed under one of the following conditions.

• Overload protection: When the appliance is operated in a manner that causes it to draw an abnormally high current, the appliance automatically stops without any indication. In this situation, turn the appliance off and stop the application that caused the appliance to become overloaded. Then turn the appliance on to restart.
•  Overheat protection: When the appliance is over-heated, the appliance automatically stops. Let the appliance cool down before turning it on again.
•  Over-discharge protection: When the battery capacity becomes low, the appliance stops automatically. If the appliance does not operate even when the switches are operated, remove the battery cartridge from the appliance and charge it.

OPERATION

Starting / stopping the fan
Press the power switch button to turn on the fan. Press the power switch button again to turn off the fan.

Changing wind speed
Press the wind speed change button while the fan is running. The wind speed increases every time you press the button. The wind speed will return to the lowest speed when running in the highest speed. The cordless fan will start in the same speed as the previous setting.

Adjusting fan head angle
The angle of the fan head can be adjusted manually. The adjustable range of the fan head is as shown in the figure.

NOTICE: Do not turn the fan head beyond the adjustable range.

Oscillating the fan head

CAUTION: When oscillating the fan head, keep obstacles clear of the moving range of the fan head. The cordless fan may be pushed and fall by the oscillation.
CAUTION: Do not stop the oscillation by holding the fan head. Always press the oscillation button to stop.`

Press the oscillation button to oscillate the fan head. Press the button again to stop the oscillation. The fan head begins to oscillate from the current position when the oscillation button is pressed. The fan head oscillates in the range of 90-degrees.

NOTE: Depending on the fan head position, the fan head may not oscillate soon after the oscillation button is pressed because of the oscillation mechanism.

Auto-off timer
Press the auto-off timer button while the fan is running. The duration to activate the auto-off timer changes every time you press the button (1 hour / 2 hours / 4 hours / off). The number under each auto-off timer indicator shows the remaining hour(s) to turn off the fan. The auto-off timer indicator will turn off with time.

NOTE: Depending on the battery cartridge type and its remaining capacity, the auto-off timer may be activated earlier than the set time.

Using AC adaptor

• WARNING: Never use the appliance when the cord or plug is damaged.
• WARNING: Do not handle the plug with wet or greasy hand.
• WARNING: Do not leave the AC adaptor disconnected from the appliance while the power is supplied from the mains. Small children may put the live plugin their mouth and cause injury.
• WARNING: Do not put the live plug or cord into your mouth. Doing so might cause an electric shock.

Insert the 15V DC plug of AC adaptor into the 15V DC socket, and then plug the AC pins into a main power supply. Make sure that the voltage rating of the main power supply corresponds with that of the adaptor.

• NOTE: After the AC adaptor is connected, the appliance may take 3–5 seconds to start.
• NOTE: The adaptor might creak while using it for the power supply. This doesn’t affect normal use.
• NOTE: Even operating in DC power mode, the appliance is automatically changed into AC power mode when plugged in.
• NOTE: When the cordless fan switches the power mode from DC to AC, and vice versa, the wind speed may change temporarily.
• NOTE: The AC adaptor does not charge the battery inserted to the appliance.
