Window Fan Installation

The window fan has been designed to fit double-hung, slider and casement windows.

  1. Set the fan into your window opening.

    Overview - Part 3
  3. To keep the fan in place, carefully close the window so that the bottom edge of the window rests on the flat area on the top of the window fan.

    Be sure fan is securely installed in your window at all times. Do not lean or push on fan while it is in the window.
    NOTE: For slider windows, set the fan vertically in your window opening, with the left side on the bottom.

INSTALLATION GUIDE
The extender screen can be adjusted by pulling out the extender locks located on the top and bottom of the right side of the fan. Push the locks back into place to secure the extender screen at the desired length.
The extender panels can be secured to the fan by simply sliding the extender panels into the grooves located on the left hand side of the fan.
For 24 inch to 27 inch (61-69cm): Use up to 3 inch (7.6cm) of right side, pull out extender screen.
For 28 inch to 34 inch (71-86cm): Use one 3 inch (7.6cm) extender panel on the left side. Adjust the pull out extender screen on the right side for a tight fit (from 0.5 inch to 7 inch (1.3-17.8cm) ).
Larger than 34 inch (86cm): Additional extender panels will be required.

MANUAL OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE: To operate the fan continuously, make sure that the auto on light located to the left of the control panel is off.

  1. Plug your window fan into any 120V AC electrical outlet.
    NOTE: The temperature display will always be on when the fan is plugged into the electrical outlet.
  2. To turn the fan on press the Speed Control Button.
  3. Set the speed to high, medium (med) or low by pressing the Speed Control Button.
  4. Set the airflow direction to Exhaust (out), Intake (in) or exchange (one blade blowing air in and the second blade blowing air out) by pressing the air flow button.
  5. To turn the fan off press the Speed Control button and cycle through the speeds until the fan turns off or press and hold the Speed Control button until the fan turns off.

AUTOMATIC OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Your window fan is equipped with the digital control thermostat that automatically turns the fan on and off depending upon the preset comfort level. For example, if you have set your thermostat to 75°F (24°C) and the room temperature drops to 74°F (23°C) or lower then the fan will automatically shut off. The fan will then turn on again when the room temperature exceeds 75°F (24°C). In order to take advantage of this feature, make sure your window fan is in automatic mode (this will be indicated by a red light on the left of the control panel).

  1. Set the fan to Automatic Mode by pressing the Mode button located on the Control Panel. The Auto On light will illuminate when the unit is in Automatic Mode.
  2. Press the Temp Set (+,–) buttons on the front of the Control Panel or use the remote control to program the desired temperature.
  3. When you are finished setting the temperature the display will blink. It will then return to displaying the current room temperature.


If the unit will not start in automatic mode, please make sure that the set temperature is below the current room temperature. If the fan is stopped and you would like to turn it back on, lower the set temperature or switch to the manual mode.
