INSTALLATION GUIDE
1 Contents
The packaging should contain the following:
• Fan
• 2 adapters, 1 x Ø98 mm and 1 x Ø118 mm
• Manual
• Accessory bag with 4 screws and plugs, a pull cord with
toggle, and insulation for the standard cable type (FK).
2 Installation
The fan can be installed on a wall or on a ceiling. See the
diagram below for installation dimensions. The fan must
not be installed in an environment where the temperature
exceeds 50°C. Attach an appropriate adapter to the fan's
chassis, Ø98 (1) for a Ø100 duct or Ø118 (2) for a Ø125 duct.
The fan can also be installed and
used without an adapter, so
that it is mounted completely
on the surface, e.g. in the case
of ducts less than Ø98.
When installing the fan, check that there is a seal between
the pipe/duct and wall/ceiling to prevent humid air from
penetrating the wall or ceiling. Use the accompanying
screw and plug, if necessary.

3 Wiring
• All electrical work must be carried out by a registered
electrician.
• The fan is double insulated and must not be earthed.
• The fan is tted with a multi-pole switch and does not
require a pre-wired external switch.
1 Push the multi-pole switch up to position 0 – OFF.
2 The cable can be installed either along the surface using
entries A in the chassis or concealed using the B inlets
in the chassis. Both options are shown below. Use the
insulating sleeve supplied for the cable.
3 If you use any of the B inlets, remove the concealed
round plastic cover by tapping inside the break-o
notch from the inside out to the back with a screwdriver,
for example.

4 Installation options
The fan can be installed in any of three ways
depending on the desired function, as detailed below:
1 Humidity control only, see diagram 1
The fan is connected to constant phase (L) and
neutral (N) for automatic humidity control.
The timer can be activated manually by installing a pull
cord and pulling it (see page 8).
2 Humidity control + timer with light switch, see
diagram 2
The fan is connected to constant phase (L) and
neutral (N) for automatic humidity control.
Switched live (SL) is connected to activate the fan's
timer, i.e. when the bathroom light is switched on. This
option provides a 90-second start delay.
3 Humidity control + timer with retractive switch, see
diagram 3
The fan is connected to constant phase (L) and
neutral (N) for automatic humidity control.
Switched live (SL) is connected to activate the fan's timer
using a retractive switch.
This option gives direct start-up of the fan.

5 Connecting the pull cord switch
A pull cord can be installed for activating the timer
manually or for pausing the fan. Remove the mounting
plate using a screwdriver, and thread the accompanying
pull cord through the hole.
• Once installation is complete, push the safety switch
down to position I – ON, to make the fan active again.
When the fan is connected to the power supply, it performs a
self-test where electronics, LEDs and operation of the motor
are all tested. The fan is now ready for use.
NB!
Use an ordinary round le to
create a smooth cut-out at
a suitable place in the front
cover.
Do NOT use pliers or similar
tools, as these may cause the
cover to crack.

ADVANCED FUNCTIONS
Selecting humidity sensitivity mode
Bathroom climates may vary depending on a number of
factors: room size, the presence of any natural draught
ventilation, temperature, etc. These factors may aect the
fan humidity response, causing it to start too quickly or
too slowly.
The factory setting is position 2: normal humidity
response, which works best in most cases.
1) Press the Speed + and
Humidity mode buttons
simultaneously (the blue and
yellow LEDs ash quickly).
Press the Humidity Mode button until the desired humidity
sensitivity mode is selected.
Position 1: the Silent LED comes
on – fast humidity response.
Position 2: the Max LED comes
on – normal humidity response.
Position 3: The Silent and Max
LEDs come on together – slow
humidity response.
Position 4: Both the Silent and
Max LEDs stay o – humidity
control is deactivated.
2) Press the Speed + and
Humidity Mode buttons at the
same time (The blue and yellow
LEDs stop ashing).

can reduce its reference values for humidity in the room.
• Yellow LED on
The fan is running – timer control has been activated.
• Yellow ashing LED
Timer control with delayed start has been activated by
the light switch.
The LED ashes for 1.5 min. before the fan starts.

MAINTENANCE
Clean the fan at least twice a year, or as required.
Disconnect the power supply to the fan by pushing the
multi-pole switch up to position O - OFF.
The fan is tted with a removable propeller. Press in the
centre using your thumb, grip the fan wings and pull o
the propeller. The fan's "swing out" function is also useful, as it provides easy access to the duct. Press the motor
mount ring's snap-in catch and swing out the motor/
blades.
When cleaning the fan, pay particular attention to the
blades if these are dirty. Otherwise, there is a risk of
imbalance and hence increased noise and a reduced
life span for the motor bearings.
Clean the fan's blades with a brush or paintbrush.
Clean the fan cover with a polishing cloth moistened
with water and possibly a mild detergent.
NB! Never use solvents or similar products on any part of
the fan, as there is a risk of them damaging the fan's plastic
components!
OFF
13

Never submerge the fan in water, as there is a risk that this
could damage the fan's motor.
After cleaning, swing the motor mount ring back into
position and lock it by securing the snap-in catch.
Switch the multi-pole switch back on by moving the
switch down to position 1 – ON.
If maintenance of the fan is not performed as specied
above, the product warranty will be null and void.

For optimum ventilation, you must ensure that
sucient air can enter the bathroom. This is done
either by creating an opening at the bottom of the door or
by installing an air vent in the door or wall.
It is also important to draw fresh air into the house that is
then expelled through the bathroom or laundry room, for
instance.
In this case, it is a good idea to install fresh air vents in bedrooms and in the living room.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
The fan runs non-stop
The blue LED is on constantly
(If the fan has been running non-stop for at least 24 hours)
Check that it is working by opening the bathroom door
and leaving it open for at least half an hour to equalise
humidity levels.
Disconnect the power supply to the fan – move the safety
switch to position 0 – OFF and then back to position I – ON.
The yellow LED is constantly on
If the fan is connected to an external switch for timer
control, switch this o and wait at least 30 minutes.
Disconnect the power supply to the fan – move the safety
switch to position 0 – OFF and then back to position I – ON.
No LEDs on
This is entirely normal if the fan has been set to
continuous operation. No LEDs are on in this mode.
If the fan has not been set to continuous operation,
disconnect the power supply to the fan – move the safety
switch to position 0 – OFF and then back to position I – ON.
Other faults
The fan stops when the light is switched on.
The fan has probably been programmed to pause
on a momentary switch. See page 11 for
deprogramming
The fan does not work as described
Remove the cover and disconnect the power supply to
the fan by moving the safety switch to 0. Then return the
switch to I (On).
If the fan still does not work as described in this guide,
contact your electrician.
