STORM GUARD
Your new 16" Electronic Window
Fan includes Lasko's exclusive
STORM GUARD™ feature.
STORM GUARD allows you to
close the window without
removing the Fan and is ideal
for unexpected storms and
home security.
Installation with this feature is
optional.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Fan is fully assembled and ready for installation. It has been
designed to fit double hung windows with minimum
openings of 18" High and 25-1/2" Wide.
DETERMINING THE CORRECT INSTALLATION PROCEDURE: The large number of window styles and types make
it impossible to describe one universal installation procedure. The following procedures are for the most common
types of double hung windows.
If you are installing the fan utilizing the STORM GUARD
consider one which will allow the window to be closed easily
behind the Fan.
INSTALLATION
1. Open the window at least 18-1/2".
2. Turn Fan so that the front
faces you. Place the bottom
of the Fan onto the lower window sill. Be sure that the Cord
is inside the house and hanging freely over the inside window sill cap.
3. Holding the Fan in place from
the front, lower the window
sash slowly until it fits between
the Window Grabbers on the top of the Fan.
4. Once the Fan is secure, pull out both Side Panels until
the open space on the sides are fully blocked. These
Side Panels will automatically hold at the desired length.
