Full details
The Dimplex DuoCool Smart 2-in-1 Fan in Grey is designed for users seeking versatile and intelligent cooling solutions for their homes. Its key benefit is the combination of powerful airflow with smart features like app control and scheduling, offering both corded and cordless operation for ultimate flexibility. A potential caveat is the 6-hour recharge time for full cordless use. This fan offers six fan speeds, three wind modes (normal, natural, sleep), extensive oscillation and tilt for full-room coverage, a 24-hour timer, and quiet operation as low as 38 dB.

Troubleshooting
Fan does not turn on
Check if the power adapter is securely connected to both the fan and the wall outlet. If using cordless mode, ensure the battery is charged. Try a different power outlet.
Wi-Fi connection fails
Ensure your Wi-Fi network is active and broadcasting on the 2.4GHz band. Restart your router and the fan. Check if the fan is within range of your Wi-Fi router. Re-enter Wi-Fi credentials in the app.
App is unresponsive
Close and reopen the Dimplex app. Ensure your smartphone has an active internet connection. Check for app updates. Restart your smartphone.
Reduced airflow
Ensure the fan grilles are clear of obstructions. Check if a fan speed or mode has been inadvertently set very low. If using cordless, check battery level.
Fan is making unusual noises
Ensure the fan is placed on a stable, level surface. Check for any loose parts or debris that might be obstructing the blades. If the noise persists, discontinue use and contact customer support.
