GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION

When using electrical appliances, basic precautions

should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire,

electric shock and injury to person, including the following:

5. Do not insert fingers or foreign objects into the fan. Do not
block or tamper with the fan in any manner while it is in
operation. Do not touch the fan while in operation or just after
it has been turned off, as some parts may be hot enough to
cause injury.

2. Make certain that the power source conforms to the electrical
requirements of the fan.

3. The power cord is equipped with a three-prong grounded
plug that must be inserted into a matching receptacle. Under
no circumstances must the grounding prong be cut off the
plug. Where a two-prong wall receptacle is encountered, it
must be replaced with a properly grounded three-prong
receptacle installed in accordance with the National Electric
Code (NEC) and all applicable local codes and ordinances.
This work must be done by a qualified electrician, using
copper wire only.

WARNING: USE OF A THREE-PRONG TO TWO-PRONG

ADAPTER IS NOT RECOMMENDED. IMPROPER CONNECTION
MAY CREATE THE RISK OF ELECTROCUTION. USE OF SUCH
ADAPTERS IS NOT PERMITTED IN CANADA.

4. Where possible, avoid the use of extension cords. If they must
be used, minimize the risk of overheating by ensuring that they
are UL listed and of the proper gage and length. Never use a
single extension cord to operate more than one fan.

6. Unplug power cord before installing or servicing the fan.

WARNING: DO NOT DEPEND UPON THE ON-OFF SWITCH

AS THE SOLE MEANS OF DISCONNECTING POWER WHEN
INSTALLING OR SERVICING THE FAN. ALWAYS UNPLUG THE
POWER CORD.

7. This fan is intended for general use ONLY. It must NOT be
used in potentially dangerous locations such as flammable,
explosive, chemical-laden or wet atmospheres.

WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC

SHOCK, DO NOT USE THIS FAN WITH ANY SOLID STATE SPEED
CONTROL DEVICE.

8. Be sure fan is on a stable surface when operating, to avoid
chance of it overturning.

9. DO NOT use fan in a window. Rain may create an electrical
hazard.
