Pro Tip: Use the fan in open spaces with at least 12 inches of clearance around air outlets to ensure smooth airflow.

Preparing a Flat Surface and Accessories

Before beginning:

1. Select a flat, level surface for assembly.
2. Lay down a protective cloth or cardboard.
3. Make sure the power cord runs freely through the fan body.

Step 1: Aligning Front and Back Base

1. Place the front base panel flat on the floor with its cylinders upward.
2. Align the back base panel so its holes fit into the cylinders.
3. Insert until locked securely.

Step 2: Pulling Out and Routing the Power Cord

1. Locate the power cord in the center of the base.
2. Gently pull it out and run it through the base opening.
3. Ensure the cord isn’t twisted or pinched.
4. Leave enough slack for plugging into a wall outlet.

Pro Tip: Routing the cord neatly reduces tripping hazards.

Step 3: Securing the Fan Body with Screws

1. Position the fan body over the assembled base.
2. Align the screw holes in the base with those on the fan body.
3. Insert the tapping screws.
4. Tighten with a screwdriver until secure, do not overtighten.

Troubleshooting Tip: If the fan wobbles, loosen screws, realign, and retighten.

Step 4: Setting the Fan Upright for Use

1. Carefully tilt the fan upright.
2. Check stability on the flat surface.
3. Confirm the power cord is routed through the designated line hole.

Your tower fan is now assembled and ready for operation.

Understanding the Display and Control Panel

The control panel lets you customize airflow.

Pro Tip: Start at medium speed to test airflow before adjusting.

Using the Remote Control and Battery Safety

The remote performs the same functions as the control panel.

• Powered by a CR2025 (3V) lithium button battery.
• Follow these battery precautions:
  • Do not recharge non-rechargeable batteries.
  • Insert with correct polarity (+/-).
  • Do not mix old and new batteries.
  • Remove batteries if storing fans for long periods.
  • Keep away from children; even used batteries can cause harm.

Pro Tip: Replace batteries with lithium type for longer life.

Placement Guidelines for Maximum Airflow

• Place the fan on a stable, flat floor.
• Leave at least 12 inches from walls or curtains.
• Keep air inlets and outlets clear.
• Avoid shaking or knocking during operation.

Everyday Operating Tips

• Use the timer function to save energy.
• Switch between speeds depending on room conditions.
• Oscillation spreads airflow evenly across a room.
• Unplug the fan during extended periods of non-use.

Cleaning and Maintenance Instructions

FAQs

1. Can I use a smart plug or timer switch with my tower fan?

Yes. Most tower fans work well with smart plugs or external timer switches as long as the device supports at least a 60-watt load. This allows you to schedule run times, turn the fan on or off remotely, and integrate it with other smart-home routines.

2. Is the fan compatible with a generator or backup power supply?

Yes. You can safely operate the fan with a generator or UPS as long as it delivers a steady 120 V, 60 Hz output. Avoid generators that produce fluctuating or “dirty” power because this can overheat or damage the motor and internal electronics over time.

3. Can I paint or customize the exterior of the tower fan?

Painting or adding stickers is not advised. Decorative coatings or adhesives can block the ventilation holes and reduce airflow, which traps heat and affects performance. It may also void the product warranty and shorten the life of the fan.

4. How can I reduce noise if the fan becomes louder over time?

First, unplug the unit and clean dust from vents, internal blades, and the base with a soft brush or vacuum. Check and tighten all screws to eliminate rattling, and make sure the fan sits on a level, vibration-free surface to keep operation quiet.
