Overview

This document serves as the owner's manual for the Pelonis 40" Tower Fan, model PSF40T2ABB (SKU# 6211463). It provides essential information regarding the fan's assembly, operation, safety, and maintenance.

The Pelonis 40" Tower Fan is designed to provide air circulation for personal comfort. It features a sleek, vertical design, making it suitable for various indoor environments where space might be a consideration. The fan's primary function is to move air, offering different settings to customize the airflow experience.

Safety Instructions:

Before operating the fan, it is crucial to read and understand the "Important Safety Instructions" and "Rules for Safe Operation" sections. These guidelines are in place to prevent potential hazards such as fire, electric shock, and injury. The fan is equipped with a polarized plug, meaning one blade is wider than the other, designed to fit into a polarized outlet in only one way. If the plug does not fit, it should be reversed. If it still doesn't fit, a qualified electrician should be contacted, and no attempt should be made to modify this safety feature. The appliance is not intended for use by individuals with reduced physical, sensory, or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they are supervised or instructed by a person responsible for their safety. It is important never to leave the fan running unattended and to unplug or disconnect it from the power supply before any servicing.

A key safety feature is the overload protection, which utilizes a fuse. If the fuse blows, it indicates an overload or short-circuit. In such a case, the product should be unplugged, and the fuse replaced according to the user servicing instructions and the product's proper fuse rating. If a replacement fuse blows, it suggests a short-circuit, and the product should be discarded or returned to an authorized service facility for examination and/or repair. The fan should never be operated with a damaged cord or plug. The power cord should not be run under carpeting, throw rugs, runners, or similar coverings, nor should it be routed under furniture or appliances. It should be arranged away from traffic areas to prevent tripping hazards. The fan is designed to be used under its rated voltage and should only be connected to power once fully assembled. To prevent injury, fingers, pencils, or any other objects should never be inserted through the guard while the fan is running. When not in use, or when moving, assembling, or cleaning the fan, it should be unplugged from the outlet. It is essential to ensure the fan is placed on a stable surface during operation to prevent overturning. The fan is not designed for outdoor use or in windows, as moisture can create an electrical hazard.

Assembly Instructions:

The fan requires minimal assembly. The process involves taking the fan body and spare parts out of the box. The front base is placed onto the rear base and joined together. A plastic nut, initially on the fan body, needs to be unlocked. The power cord is then passed through a designated flute in the base, and the fan body is inserted into the base. Finally, the fan body is secured to the base using the plastic nut. Visual aids (Fig. 1, Fig. 2, Fig. 3) are provided in the manual to guide the user through these steps.

Operation Instruction:

The fan is operated via a control panel located on the unit itself, as well as a remote control.

Control Panel (Fig.4):

The control panel features several keys for different functions:

  • ON/OFF Key (Power Button): This key is used to switch the fan on or off.
  • SPEED Key (Fan Icon): Once the fan is on, pressing this key repeatedly cycles through three speed settings (1-2-3).
  • OSC/LOUVER Key (Oscillation Icon): After the fan has started, this key is used to select the oscillation mode, which allows the fan to rotate from side to side, distributing air over a wider area. Lights on the display indicate when oscillation mode is active.
  • MODE Key (Mode Icon): Pressing this key repeatedly cycles through different operating modes: normal, natural, and sleep. Indicator lights show the current mode.
  • TIMING Key (Timer Icon): This key is used to set a timer for the fan's operation. Repeated presses increase the timer setting in increments, up to a maximum of 15 hours (1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-11-12-13-14-15 hours).

Remote Control (Fig.5):

The fan also comes with a remote control for convenient operation from a distance. The remote control mirrors the functions available on the main control panel, including fan speed, oscillation, power, timer, and mode.

Remote Control Battery Installation:

The remote control requires batteries, which are not included in the packaging. To install them:

  1. Slide open the battery compartment cover.
  2. Insert AAA batteries (1.5V) into the compartment, ensuring correct polarity as shown in Fig.6.
  3. Slide the battery cover back into place. It is important to use manganese or alkaline AAA batteries and not rechargeable batteries.

Battery Warnings:

  • Batteries should not be disposed of in fire, as they may explode or leak.
  • Old and new batteries should not be mixed.
  • Alkaline, standard (carbon-zinc), or rechargeable (nickel-cadmium) batteries should not be mixed.

Remote Controller Operation:

To use the remote control, point it towards the receptor on the fan body. It operates effectively at distances up to approximately 16.4 feet and within a 30-degree angle (left and right) from the receptor. When the remote control is no longer needed or before disposal, the batteries should be removed and safely disposed of.

Overheat Protection of the Motor:

The fan is equipped with an overheat protection mechanism. The motor windings contain a thermal-fuse that will burn out if the motor overheats for any unexpected reason. This causes the fan to switch off, preventing the motor's temperature from rising further and protecting the plastic parts of the fan from deformation or burning due to excessive heat.

User Servicing Instructions (Fuse Replacement):

The manual provides detailed instructions for replacing the fuse located in the attachment plug:

  1. Grasp the plug and pull it from the receptacle or outlet; do not unplug by pulling on the cord.
  2. Locate the fuse cover on top of the attachment plug and slide it open towards the blades.
  3. Carefully remove the old fuse by pushing it from the other side.
  4. Replace the fuse only with a 2.5 Amp, 125 Volt fuse (one is provided with the product).
  5. Slide the fuse access cover closed on top of the attachment plug. It is crucial not to replace the attachment plug itself, as it contains a safety device (fuse) that should not be removed. If the attachment plug is damaged, the product should be discarded. When replacing the fuse, avoid sudden or excessive force to prevent damage or accidents. Ensure the new fuse is correctly positioned to avoid operational issues.

Cleaning:

Regular cleaning is important for maintaining the fan's performance and longevity.

  1. Always unplug the power cord from the outlet before cleaning.
  2. Plastic parts should be cleaned with mild soap and a damp cloth or sponge. Any soap residue should be thoroughly removed with clean water. Abrasive detergents or solvents should not be used, as they can scratch the surface. Specifically, gasoline, thinner, or bending agents should not be used as cleaners.
  3. Care must be taken to prevent water or any other liquid from entering the motor's interior.
  4. All parts must be completely dry before plugging the fan back into a socket.
