Vornado Air Circulator
A Vornado circulates all the air in the room so everyone
is comfortable. Air in motion feels cooler than air that is
stagnant. By providing whole room circulation, a Vornado
allows you to turn the thermostat up 5º F - saving energy
and money - without sacrificing comfort.

To turn on unit - rotate knob one position clockwise.
Turn the knob clockwise to decrease airflow. Turn coun-
terclockwise to increase airflow. On models equipped
with push button speed controls: Press Power, then select

Use the feet to protect floors when using your air circulator on uncarpeted
surfaces such as hardwood, vinyl, or tile. The feet are simple to install and will
help maintain the whisper-quiet operation.
Cushion Ring Feet
Multiple Speeds
(Models 723, 745, 783 and 795 only)
The cushion ring feet are packaged separately
in the box. To install, roll or clip all feet onto the
base and space evenly. For balanced support it
is recommended to use 4 ring feet.
Provides movement of air at any angle–up stairs, down a
hallway, room to room and everywhere in between.

How To Use
Summer: Use your Air Circulator with your home’s air conditioning system to
create brisk, comforting air movement. This breeze will eliminate stagnant air
and remove body heat to make you feel cooler.
When To Use – Saves Energy Year-Round
Getting Started
1. Position your Air Circulator so the beam of air has an unobstructed
path from one side of the room to the other.
With Vornado Air Circulators, you can save money on energy bills by raising
your thermostat several degrees and still maintaining the same comfort level.
2. Set speed to medium and allow a few minutes for an airflow pattern
to be established. (Different airflow patterns can be established by
changing the location, angle and speed of the Air Circulator.)
Use with central
or window air
conditioning
Push cool air
up stairs
3. Adjust the speed accordingly until a desired comfort level is
achieved. You will quickly determine the precise amount of circula-
tion required to maintain your personal comfort in a given room
for the prevailing temperature and humidity conditions. Once you
discover the added comfort of air circulation, you will use your
Vornado Air Circulator season after season.
Spring & Fall: Your Air Circulator can make the indoors as fresh and pleasant
as the outdoors. Place the Air Circulator near an open window, sliding door or
French door to take full advantage of mild temperatures and seasonal breezes.

Where to Use
Air Circulator
Ideal Rooms
Winter: Position your Air Circulator in a place with unobstructed upward air
movement. Run it only as fast as necessary to lower the heated air from the
ceiling – but not fast enough to create a draft. Or, use your Air Circulator with
other available heat sources (furnace vents, wood stoves or baseboard heat-
ers) to circulate their warmth, taking full advantage of all available heat in the
room. Do not point the Air Circulator at open flames.

Blade Removal
Cleaning and Maintenance
Because your Air Circulator moves a substantial amount of air, it will need
regular cleaning. To avoid risk of fire, electrical shock, or injury to persons,
unplug the unit before any cleaning activity.
Remove the Nut
It is possible to remove the blade should something
accidentally get wrapped around the motor shaft.
First, remove the nut from the shaft (only necessary on
V102, 133, 270, 573, 533, 633, 673, 679, 743 and 753
models.) Turn the nut clockwise to loosen. Pull the
blade straight out from the shaft. When replacing, the
blade can only go on the shaft one way. Be certain
the flat side of the shaft aligns directly with the cor-
responding flat side on the blade’s socket. Push the
blade all the way on the shaft until it bottoms out. Do
not use a hammer as this could result in bearing dam-
age. Reinstall nut on applicable models.
The motor is permanently lubricated and requires no oiling.
To clean motor cap and inlet ribs: Use a com-
mon household vacuum. Do not use water to
clean these parts of the Air Circulator.
To clean grill: Remove grill (See GRILL RE-
MOVAL instructions) and dust or wash with a
mild dishwashing soap. Do not place grill in the
dishwasher. The excessive heat can distort the
plastic.
To clean blade: Wipe with a damp cloth. If your
Air Circulator is used in a greasy environment,
such as a kitchen, mild soap or a common
household cleaner may be necessary. Do not
use solvents.
To clean base: Wipe with a damp cloth.
