THERMOSTAT INSTRUCTIONS:
Your window fan is equipped with a Comfort Control Thermostat that auto-
matically turns the fan ON and OFF depend-
ing on the preset comfort level. This is ideal
for operation at night when the temperature
drops. It is labeled Comfort Control.
• While the Window Fan is on, turn the
Comfort Control Thermostat dial counter-
clockwise towards the smaller dots until
the fan stops (Away from Cooler). This is
the selected comfort level.
• If the fan is stopped and you want to turn it back on, turn the Comfort
Control Thermostat dial clockwise until the fan starts, towards the larg-
er dots (Towards Cooler).
SET DIAL TO DESIRED SHUT-OFF POINT. Turning dial (as noted above)
helps you locate the prevailing temperature on the dial.
IMPORTANT: If you desire continuous running of the fan, the Comfort
Control Thermostat dial should be turned all the way to the right to the
largest dot.
