FEATURES & OPERATION
ON-OFF SWITCH
The Day/Night PLUS comes with an on-off
switch which is located inside the fan housing.
To operate, gently place your finger on the hub
of the fan until it stops rotating, then just press
the rubber covered switch on or off. Setting the
switch to the off position cuts all current from the
solar array and battery to the fan motor. All the current produced by
the solar array is therefore used to charge the battery.
SHUT-OFF DAMPER
The Day/Night PLUS is equipped with a green water shut-off damper
which can be operated from below. There are two ears on the inside
edge of the fan housing.
