OPERATION

The humidity control and fan can be operated separately. Use a 1- or 2-function wall control. Do not use a dimmer switch to operate the humidity control. See “Connect Wiring” for details.

SENSOR OPERATION

The humidity-sensing fan uses a sophisticated humidity sensor that responds to: (a) rapid to moderate increases in humidity or (b) humidity above a set-point. The humidity sensor may occasionally turn the fan ON when environmental conditions change.

MANUAL ON WITH TIMED OFF

The humidity sensing fan has an additional operation feature. For odor or vapor control, the fan can be energized by cycling the power switch. Once the fan has been energized in this manner, it will remain on for 20 minutes.

To manually energize the fan:

1.If fan power switch is already ON, proceed to Step 2; otherwise, turn power switch ON for more than 1 second.

2.Turn fan power switch OFF for less than 1 second.

3.Turn fan power switch back ON and fan will turn ON.

CLEANING & MAINTENANCE

For quiet and efficient operation, long life, and attractive appear- ance - lower or remove grille and vacuum interior of unit with the dusting brush attachment.

The motor is permanently lubricated and never needs oiling. If the motor bearings are making excessive or unusual noises, replace the motor / blower wheel assembly.

SENSOR CLEANING

The humidity sensor is mounted in the control housing. The sensor will operate most reliably when cleaned occasionally as follows:

1.Disconnect power at service entrance.

2.Remove the grille. Use a dry dustcloth, clean toothbrush, or lightly vacuum to clean sensor and grille. DO NOT USE ABRASIVE CLOTH, STEEL WOOL PADS, OR SCOURING POWDERS.
