(one blade is wider than the other). To
reduce the risk of shock, this plug is

still does not fit, contact a qualified
electrician. DO NOT attempt to defeat
this safety feature.

unplug the fan from the outlet when not
in use, when moving the fan from one
location to another and before
cleaning.

to the OFF position, grip the plug and
pull it from the wall outlet. Never pull
by the cord.

8. Do not operate the fan in the presence
of explosive and/or flammable fumes.

9. Do not place the fan or any parts near
an open flame, cooking or other
heating appliance.

10.Do not operate the fan with a damaged
cord or plug or if the product
malfunctions, is dropped or damaged
in any manner (see warranty).

11.Avoid contact with moving fan parts.

12.The use of attachments not

recommended by the manufacturer may
be hazardous.

13.Place the fan on a dry level surface.

14.Do not hang or mount fan on a wall or

ceiling.

15.Do not operate if the fan housing is
removed or damaged.

16.A loose fit between the AC outlet
(receptacle) and plug may cause
overheating and a distortion of the
plug. Contact a qualified electrician to
replace loose or worn outlet.

17.This fan is rated for use as a window
fan, however, we recommend that
during rain, the fan be removed from
the window.

WARNING: To Reduce The Risk of
Fire or Electric Shock, Do Not Use
This Fan With Any Solid-State Speed
Control Device.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

WINDOW

GUIDE

Your fan comes fully assembled and ready for installation. Casement and sliding
windows require a mounting bracket for installation which can be found in the
hardware packet provided.

Your fan has been designed to fit double hung, casement or sliding windows with
minimum openings of 23” wide x 12” high (58cm X 30cm). Casement or sliding
windows require minimum openings of 12” x 23” high (30cm X 58cm).

DOUBLE HUNG WINDOWS

• Open your window at least 12” high (30cm).

• Turn the fan so that the front faces you. With the power cord hanging inside
your room, position the lower edge of the fan in the window. Lower the
window to the top of the fan. NOTE: Be sure the window is seated

between the window guides protruding from the top of the fan
(Fig. 1).

• Pull out each side panel until the space on the sides of the fan are fully blocked.

• To push the side panels back into the fan, pull out each tab on the back
side of the fan (Fig. 2). In this “pulled-out” position you can easily slide the
side panels back into the fan. The tabs should then be returned to the normal
position to secure the side panels in place.

WARNING: To prevent personal injury and/or damage to the fan,
never lean or push on fan while it is sealed in the window or during
operation. Do not lift the window while the fan is operating. Be sure
that the fan is fully secured in the window at all times.

CASEMENT OR SLIDING WINDOWS

• Remove the four “shoulder screws” supplied from the hardware packet.

• Screw two of the four shoulder screws into the holes on the bottom back of the

fan and two into the holes on the bottom front of the fan.

• Remove the mounting bracket from the kit provided.

• Temporarily hook the mounting bracket over the four screws to hold the bracket

in place (Fig. 3).

• Choose a suitable mounting location on the window frame where the fan can
be positioned to direct airflow through the open window. Mark the location of
the bracket with a pencil for placement. NOTE: Since the mounting

bracket will remain attached to the window frame at the marked
location, be sure that the bracket is positioned in a manner that
will allow the window to be closed when the fan is removed.

• Unhook the bracket from the fan. Using the wood screws provided in the
hardware packet, mount the bracket into the frame at the marked location
(Fig. 4). The fan can be mounted onto the bracket within the window and is
ready for use (Fig. 5).

• In rare instances during CASEMENT window installation, your window screen
may not fit in its original position. In that event, it may become necessary to
use an “alternate bracket” will be provided free of charge. This alternate
bracket will enable you to use your window screen in its original position.
Please refer to the PARTS AVAILABLE section of this instruction manual.
