Safety Precautions For
Your Pedestal Fan
• Do not use outdoors.
• Do not run the cord of the fan under
carpeting. Do not cover the cord with throw
rugs, runners or other floor coverings.
Arrange the cord away from traffic areas so
that it will not be tripped over.
• Do not use this fan in the immediate
surrounds of a bath, shower, laundry area
or swimming pool.
• Be sure the fan is placed on a dry, even
surface. Do not use on soft surfaces, such
as beds, where opening may become
blocked.
• When operating with the oscillation
function, do not place the fan in a position
that may restrict or impede its movement.
• Keep your fan away from heat sources,
corrosive gases and avoid direct sunlight.
• This fan is only to be used with the base
fitted and in good condition.
• Disconnect the power plug before
dismantling, assembling or before cleaning.

• Always unplug the fan when not in use.
• The fan must not be used if the guards are
damaged in any way.
• Do not insert or allow foreign objects to
enter any ventilation or exhaust openings
as this may cause electric shock or fire, or
damage to the fan.
• Never insert fingers or any other objects
through the guards whenever the power
plug is connected, especially while
running.
• Avoid touching mobile parts of the fan.
• Do not attempt to move your fan whilst
it is operating. If your fan needs to be
moved, please ensure that it is turned off
and you use the carry handle on top of the
pedestal.
• When disposing of the fan at the end of its
useful life, follow local regulations.
• Do not coil the power cord too tightly
around the air cooler, as this may damage
the cord.
