FEATURES - OPERATIONS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should
always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and
injury to persons, including the following:
1. Read all instructions before using the appliance.
2. To avoid fire or shock hazard, plug the appliance directly
into a 120 V AC electrical outlet.
3. Keep the cord out of heavy traffic areas. DO NOT let the
cord hang over the edge of a table or counter. To avoid
fire hazard, NEVER put the cord under rugs, near heat
registers, radiator, stoves, or heaters.
4. To protect against electrical hazards, DO NOT immerse in
water or other liquids. Do not use near water.
5. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used
by or near children, or by disabled people.
6. Always unplug the fan before moving it, putting on or
taking off parts, cleaning, or whenever the fan is not in
use. Be sure to pull by the plug and not the cord.
7. Avoid contact with moving parts. DO NOT operate without
fan grills properly in place.
8. DO NOT operate any appliance with a damaged cord or
plug, if motor fan fails to rotate, after the appliance
malfunctions, or if it has been dropped or damaged in
any manner. Return appliance to manufacturer for
examination, electrical or mechanical adjustment, or repair.
9. DO NOT operate in the presence of explosive and/or
flammable fumes.
10. Use appliance only for intended household use as described
in this manual. Any other use not recommended by the
manufacturer may cause fire, electric shock, or injury to
persons. The use of attachments not recommended or sold
by The Holmes Group may cause hazards.
11. DO NOT use outdoors.
12. Always use on a dry, level surface.
13. Keep unit away from heated surfaces and open flames.
14. WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, DO
NOT use this fan with any solid-state speed control device.
15. DO NOT attempt to repair or adjust any electrical or
mechanical functions on this unit. Doing so will void
your warranty. The inside of the unit contains no user
serviceable parts. All servicing should be performed by
qualified personnel only.
