Care and Cleaning
Follow these instructions to correctly and safely care for your Holmes® fan. Please remember:
- Always unplug the fan before cleaning or disassembling.
- Do not allow water to drip on or into the fan motor housing.
- Do not use any of the following as a cleaner: gasoline, thinner, or benzine.
For desk and pedestal fans:
- Access the fan blade by removing the front grill and the fan blade nut.
- Clean the fan blade, both front and rear grills, with a soft cloth moistened in a mild soap solution.
- Replace blade, tighten the fan blade nut, and securely fasten the front grill.
Fan, head, base, and pole cleaning:
- Using a soft, moist cloth--with or without a mild soap solution-- carefully clean the fan base, pole, and head. Please use caution around the motor housing area. Do not expose the motor or other electrical components to water.
Fan storage instructions:
- Your fan can be stored in the off-season; however, it is important to keep it in a safe, dry location.
- We recommend using the original (or appropriately sized) box.
- If stored, assembled, or partially assembled, remember to protect the fan from dust.
Glossary
Oscillation
When turned on it automatically turns the head of the fan from left to right at either a 90 or 180-degree angle (depending on model), which will disperse the air output over a larger area.
Timer
This will allow you to set your fan to automatically shut off after the set duration of time (1 to 8 hours) expires
Breeze mode
Some Bionaire® tower fans come with this nice added feature. This will make your fan randomly cycle through different speed settings to recreate an outdoor natural breeze.
Sleep mode
This function slows the fan speed down so you can still feel the air flow but you don't hear the fan as much. This will create a more comfortable sleep environment. When used in conjunction with the timer settings, it will ultimately turn the fan off.
Plastic blades
Plastic blades provide a nice air flow and are quieter.
Metal blades
Metal blades provide a stronger and more intense air flow.
