    but i thought it only done that if light switched on if light is off it’s meant have a timer of 15 mins, see below

    If you have the timer version then it should be turning off. How did you wire it in? You should have three wires going to it: Neutral, Live and Switched Live (from the light switch), is that how you wired it?

    If you have the continuous model (which you appear to have) then my reading of the instruction is that it will run at reduced speed all the time (unless you switch it on, whereby it will run at max sped).
