Cleaning and Maintenance

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.
