HASF 1522RC 9/00
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS(CONT.)
Fan Head Assembly
You are now ready to assemble the fan head (See figure #3)
Step 1: Position the rear grill over the motor shaft, making certain the 2
notches at the top and bottom of the rear grill fit over the 2 protrud-
ing notches on the motor housing. Please make sure the rear grill fits
securely against the motor housing.
Step 2: Fasten the rear grill in place using the rear grill nut. Turn the nut
clockwise and tighten firmly.
Step 3: Slide the fan blade, with the hollowed interior of the fan blade
facing toward the rear grill firmly onto the motor shaft. Make sure
that the pin on the motor shaft lines up with the recessed grooves in
the back of the fan blade. Also, be sure to the shaft protrudes from
the front of the blade.
Step 4: Secure the fan blade onto the motor shaft by turning the blade
cap counter-clockwise (make sure the blade is firmly in position.)
Step 5: Snap the logo plate on to the front grill, making sure the clips on
the logo plate, fit into the openings on the front grill.
NOTE: SHOULD ANY GRILL CLIPS BREAK; THERE ARE EXTRAS IN THE BOX.
Step 6: Center the front grill, aligning the Holmes logo so it is horizontal
and parallel to the floor, place onto the rear grill, and snap in place
by pushing front grill onto clips while holding clips.
Final Assembly
Step 1: Place the hollow end of the remote control housing (female end)
on to the upper extension pole until it will not go down any further.
Step 2: Tighten the locking nut on the back of the remote control housing
by turning it clockwise until it doesn’t turn any further.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
STEP 1: Set fan on a dry, level surface.
STEP 2: Plug cord into any standard 120V AC outlet.
STEP 3: The speed is adjustable by pushing either the SPD button on the
remote control, or the ON/SPEED button on the touch-key pad. Push
this button first for LOW, again for MEDIUM, and a third time for HIGH.
Push a fourth time to repeat the sequence. To turn the fan OFF, push
the OFF button on the remote control, or on the touch-key pad.
STEP 4: To oscillate the fan head, push the button marked OSC on the
remote, or OSCILLATE on the touch-key pad. Push a second time to stop
OSCILLATION.
STEP5: For a natural breeze movement, push the button marked
BRZ/SLP, or BREEZE on the touch-key pad. This will vary the fan speeds
faster and slower. By pressing the BRZ/SLP button a second time, or
the SLEEP button on the touch-key pad, you activate the SLEEP setting.
This function slows the fan speed down, and when used in conjunction
with the timer settings, will ultimately turn the fan off.
NOTE: Both the BREEZE and SLEEP functions can be used with or without
OSCILLATION, and start off of any initial fan speed.
STEP 6: This fan is equipped with a 4-setting stop timer. (8 hrs, 4 hrs, 2
hrs, and 1 hr) To activate the timer, push the TMR button on the remote
control, or the TIMER button on the touch-key pad. One push will set
the 1 hr, the next push sets the 2 hr, the third push activates the 4 hr,
and the fourth push sets the 8 hr. Push again to begin repeating this
sequence.
NOTE: The timer can be used in conjunction with several other functions.
For example: SLEEP + 4HR. TIMER causes the fan to gradually slow
down over 4 hours and eventually turn off.
