☆ HOW TO ASSEMBLE THE BASE

Carefully remove the split base and the tower fan from its packaging.

Pass the power cord between the two halves of the split base at the
centre and fit the two halves’ together by lining up the overlap bosses
on the back half (with the cable exit) with their sockets on the other
half and dropping into place and pressing together.

Bring the assembled base up to the bottom of the tower and line up
the small pillar on the top of the raised centre of the base with the
matching hole in the base socket location of the tower fan, pull the
cable through fully so it doesn’t interfere with them fitting together.

Take the 4 large screws provided and pass them through the holes
in the circular bosses (located around the central hub on the underside
of the base) into the bottom of the tower, screw fix them firmly in place.

Carefully fit the cable through the slot to the back side of the hub and
then through the guide location channel at the outside of the circular
base to exit level with the base through the channel at the back.
Your XPP Cooling Fan is now ready to stand and operate.

☆ NB - THIS IS NOT A FAULT
If the fan speed varies randomly including stopping and starting automatically you have

selected either NATURAL or NIGHTIME Variable Blower Mode which simulate different
breezy conditions. To de-select this mode you must press the button to change back to

constant blowing mode, please refer to section ‘d’ following on how to change modes. To

run in constant speed mode only use the button to select the speed you require, please
refer to section ‘b’ following.

☆ OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

All of the functions of this fan can be controlled from the “soft-touch buttons on the unit’s control
panel” or by use of “the wireless remote control”.

The LED display screen on the control panel of the product illuminates to display what function you
have selected when the fan is operating.

a. Turning on/off the fan: Gently press “ON/OFF” button on the “soft-touch button control

panel” or the “wireless remote control”.

b. Adjusting and Selecting Speed: 3 constant speeds can be selected by pressing the button

either on the control panel or on the remote. Each time you press this button the speed will cycle

from I to II to III and back to ‘I’ again. Where “I” = Low speed, “II” = Medium speed and “III” =

High speed.

c. Oscillating function: Your product can oscillate in an arc from left to right and back again

continuously thus circulating the air flow over a wider area. To start the tower fan oscillating
simply press the oscillation button on the control panel for less than 2 seconds or the
button on the remote and the symbol will light up on the control panel. Press this button a

second time to stop the oscillation.

d. Variable Blower Function Selection: Your product can be set to automatically vary the speed

output to simulate different breezy conditions. It will normally run in constant blowing mode at

whichever speed you selected (see “b.” above). To select a variable blower speed function you

can simply press the button on the remote or press and hold the dual control button on
the control panel for at least 2 seconds. There are two selections available:

1. The first mode activated will be the ‘natural breeze’ selection and the symbol will light up
on the control panel. In this mode the fan speed will continuously and randomly vary
between speed levels (including off) to simulate variable wind conditions.

2. Pressing the on the remote a second time or pressing and holding the dual control
button on the control panel again for at least 2 seconds will activate ‘night time’ selection
and the symbol will light up on the control panel. In this mode the fan speed varies
automatically between speed levels (including off) at a less noticeable rate than the ‘natural
breeze’ selection.

- Pressing the button a third time for more than 2 seconds will change it back to constant
normal blowing mode.

e. Runback Timer function: The product can be set to switch off automatically after running for

one of four user selectable runback periods i.e. 1 hr, 2 hr, 4 hr or 8 hr.

To activate the runback function just simply press the timer button

- Press once and the timer is set to 1hr runback

- Press twice and the timer is set to 2hrs runback

- Press 3 times and the timer is set to 4hrs runback

- Press 4 times and the timer is set to 8 hrs runback

- Press a 5th time and the timer function is switched off.

REMOTE CONTROL
Your remote control comes complete with a CR2025 3V battery fitted.

remove the battery cover on the back and replace the battery, then
carefully refit the cover, snap into place and refit the securing screw.
