You’ll need to access the top of the Mamava pod, so have your ladder handy.
- Use a large Phillips head screwdriver to remove the two screws in both roof panel retaining plates (at the top edge of the curved sides).
- Carefully remove the plates and slide the roof panel to reveal the electrical components.
- If the fan(s) are constantly on, check to make sure they’re plugged into the correct outlet on the roof: one fan is only powered with the motion detector, the other is always on.
- If the fans aren’t running, make sure the plug end is inserted into the motion detector-controlled outlet and the other end is firmly plugged into the fan itself.
- If the fans don’t work when plugged into the motion detector-controlled roof outlet, push the motion detector button to see if it is simply “off” before checking to make sure the motion detector settings are correct.
