This document describes the Comfort Zone CZHV12B Series 12" High Velocity Fan, an indoor residential and office fan designed for personal cooling.
The fan's primary function is to provide high-velocity airflow for cooling. It features an ON/OFF switch with multiple speed settings, allowing users to adjust the airflow intensity to their preference. The fan also includes an adjustable vertical tilt mechanism, enabling users to direct the airflow precisely where needed, whether for personal cooling or to circulate air throughout a room.
For usage, the fan should always be operated in an upright position. It is designed to be placed in an area of the room that will benefit most from its cooling capabilities. The fan connects directly to a standard 120-volt A.C., 60 Hz wall outlet. It's crucial to ensure the plug fits tightly into the outlet to prevent overheating and potential damage to the plug or fan. To avoid overloading a circuit, it's recommended not to plug the fan into a circuit that is already servicing other electrical needs. To start the fan, the user turns the switch from the OFF position to the desired speed setting. To turn it off, the switch is moved to the OFF position, and the plug is removed from the outlet.
The fan is constructed with all-metal components, including metal fan blades, which contribute to its durability and quiet, vibration-free performance. Safety grilles are also incorporated to protect users from the moving blades.
Maintenance of the Comfort Zone CZHV12B fan is straightforward. Before any cleaning or maintenance, the unit must always be disconnected from the power source. The grille surface can be cleaned with a clean, damp cloth. Harsh chemical or abrasive cleaners should not be used. It's important not to immerse the fan or any wires in water. The front grille should be replaced before using the fan again, and the fan should be allowed to dry completely. Periodic cleaning of the grille with a vacuum can prevent dust buildup. The motor is sealed and does not require any internal maintenance, cleaning, or lubrication, as its internal motor bearings are permanently lubricated at the factory. If the fan malfunctions or becomes damaged in any way, it should not be used. For storage, the original carton is recommended, and the power cord should be coiled and tied to prevent damage.
Some models of this fan may include a plug with a replaceable fuse, which serves as an overload protection mechanism. If the fuse blows, indicating an overload or short-circuit, the product should be unplugged, and the fuse replaced according to the provided instructions. The fuse cover slides open, the old fuse is carefully removed using a small tool, and an identical replacement fuse (2.5 or 5.0 Amp, 125 Volt) is inserted, ensuring it is properly seated. The fuse cover is then slid back to its closed position. If a replacement fuse blows, it suggests a short-circuit may be present, and the product should be discarded or returned for examination and/or repair.
Safety is a key consideration for this fan. It is intended for use only in dry indoor environments and should not be used in bathrooms, laundry areas, near sinks, washing machines, swimming pools, or other water sources. The fan should never be placed where it could fall into a bathtub or other water receptacle. It is not suitable for use in damp environments like flooded basements. Users should avoid touching the fan motor when in use, as it can become hot and cause burns. The fan contains arcing or sparking parts internally, so it should not be used near combustible materials, flammable gases, or heat sources. It is also important not to use it in areas where gasoline, paint, or flammable materials are stored. To prevent fire, air intakes and exhausts should not be blocked, and foreign objects should not be inserted into any ventilation or exhaust opening. The fan should not be operated with a damaged cord or plug, or with a broken blade, safety cage, or any visual imperfections. An adequate, up-to-code electrical system is required. This product should not be used with any solid-state speed control device. Extension cords should be avoided, but if necessary, they must be a minimum of 14 AWG and rated not less than 1875 watts. The power cord should not be run under carpeting or covered with throw rugs, runners, or similar items, and it should be arranged away from traffic areas to prevent tripping hazards. Objects should not be inserted into any fan openings to avoid electric shock, fire, or contact with moving parts. This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory, or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been supervised or instructed on its safe use. Children should be supervised to ensure they do not play with the appliance.
