Auto-Off Timer - Makita DCF203 Betriebsanleitung

Appliance / battery protection system
The appliance is equipped with the protection system.
This system automatically cuts off power to the motor
to extend appliance and battery life. The appliance will
automatically stop during operation if the appliance or
battery is placed under one of the following conditions.
• Overload protection : When the appliance is
operated in a manner that causes it to draw an
abnormally high current, the appliance automati-
cally stops without any indication. In this situation,
turn the appliance off and stop the application
that caused the appliance to become overloaded.
Then turn the appliance on to restart.
• Overheat protection : When the appliance is over-
heated, the appliance automatically stops. Let the
appliance cool down before turning it on again.
• Overdischarge protection : When the battery
capacity becomes low, the appliance stops auto-
matically. If the appliance does not operate even
when the switches are operated, remove the
battery cartridge from the appliance and charge it.
Adjusting fan head angle
The angle of the fan head can be adjusted manually. The adjustable range of the fan head is as shown in the figure.
► Fig.6
NOTICE:
Do not turn the fan head beyond the adjustable range.
Oscillating the fan head
CAUTION:
When oscillating the fan head, keep
obstacles clear of the moving range of the fan head.
The cordless fan may be pushed and fall by the
oscillation.
CAUTION:
Do not stop the oscillation by holding
the fan head. Always press the oscillation button to
stop.
Press the oscillation button to oscillate the fan head.
Press the button again to stop the oscillation. The fan
head begins to oscillate from the current position when
the oscillation button is pressed. The fan head oscillates
in the range of 90-degrees.

NOTE: Depending on the fan head position, the fan
head may not oscillate soon after the oscillation but-
ton is pressed because of the oscillation mechanism.

Auto-off timer

Press the auto-off timer button while the fan is running.
The duration to activate auto-off timer changes every
time you press the button (1 hour / 2 hours / 4 hours
/ off). The number under each auto-off timer indicator
shows the remaining hour(s) to turn off the fan. The
auto-off timer indicator will turn off with time.

Using AC adaptor
WARNING:
Never use the appliance when the
cord or plug is damaged.
WARNING:
Do not handle the plug with wet or
greasy hand.
WARNING:
Do not leave the AC adaptor discon-
nected from the appliance while the power is supplied
from the mains. Small children may put the live plug
in their mouth and cause injury.
WARNING:
Do not put the live plug or cord into
your mouth. Doing so might cause an electric shock.
Insert the 15V DC plug of AC adaptor into the 15V DC
socket, and then plug the AC pins into a main power
supply. Make sure that the voltage rating of the main
power supply corresponds with that of the adaptor.
► Fig.9
NOTE: After the AC adaptor is connected, the appli-
ance may take 3–5 seconds to start.
NOTE: The adaptor might creak while using it for the
power supply. This doesn't affect normal use.
NOTE: Even operating in DC power mode, the appli-
ance is automatically changed into AC power mode
when plugged in.
NOTE: When the cordless fan switches the power
mode from DC to AC, and vice versa, the wind speed
may change temporarily.
NOTE: The AC adaptor does not charge the battery
inserted to the appliance.
