VF400 Warranty Registration
If you experience low fog output, pump noise, or no fog output at all,
disconnect and discontinue use immediately. Do not attempt to con-
tinue pushing the remote control’s activation button as this may dam-
age the fog machine. Check the fluid level, the external fuse, remote
connection, and be sure the wall outlet is sending power. If all of the
above appears to be okay, and the unit fails to operate correctly, the
unit will require service. Please contact ADJ Products, LLC.
VF400 Trouble Shooting
When storing your fog machine be sure to store it in a cool area.
Cover the machine so that dust does not build up on the unit. When
storing the machine for long periods of time, it is highly advised to at
least run the machine every 3-4 months. Long periods of inactivity
can severly shorten the life of your machine. Only run water based
fog juice through your machine. Never run plain water, vinegar, or any
other liquid solution through your machine. Running anything other
then water based fog juice will severly damage your machine.
VF400 Proper Storage and Maintenance
Disconnect the unit from its power source. Remove the power cord
from the unit. Once the cord has been removed, you will find that
the fuse holder is located inside the power socket. Insert a flat-head
screw driver into the power socket and gently pry out the fuse holder.
Remove the bad fuse and replace with a new one. The fuse holder also
has a holder for a spare fuse.
VF400 Fuse Replacement VF400 Remote Operation
Always be sure to maintain an adequate supply of American DJ
Brand Fog Juice in the fluid reservoir. Running the fog machine
dry will cause pump failure and or clogging. This is the largest
cause of failure in fog and haze machines. Only American DJ
Fog Juice is recommended and not all fog juice is created equal.
Remote Operation: Start by connecting the VF400R remote to the
fog machine. Once the machine is plugged in and turned on, a red
power LED on the remote will glow indicating the unit is receiving
power. The unit has a warm up time of about five (5) minutes. After
the unit has warmed up, a GREEN LED on the remote will light indi-
cating the unit is ready to emit fog. To emit fog, simply press the but-
ton on the remote for desired length of time. If the GREEN LED is on
and fog does not come out after holding the button down for 30 sec-
onds, check the fluid tank and make sure you have enough fog juice.
Caution: Before removing or replacing the remote control unit
disconnect the power supply.
