SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Following these basic precautions will reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock,  injury or death when using your air conditioner. 
1) Air conditioner must be connected to proper electrical outlet with the correct electrical supply. (see table)
2) Proper grounding must be ensured to reduce the risk of shock and fire. DO NOT CUT OR REMOVE THE GROUNDING PRONG. If you do not have a three-prong electric receptacle outlet in the wall, have a certified electrician install the proper receptacle. The wall receptacle MUST be properly grounded.
3) Do not operate air conditioner if power cord is frayed or otherwise damaged. Also avoid using it if there are cracks or abrasion damage along the length or plug connector, or if the unit malfunctions or is damaged in any manner. Contact an authorized service location for examination, repairs or adjustments.
4) DO NOT USE AN ADAPTER OR AN EXTENSION CORD.
5) Do not block airflow around the air conditioner. Also the exhaust hose should be free of any obstructions.
6) Always unplug the air conditioner before servicing it or moving it.
7) Do not install or use the air conditioner in any area where the atmosphere contains combus­tible gases or where the atmosphere is oily or sulphurous. Avoid any chemicals coming in contact with your air conditioner.
8) Do not place any object on the top of the unit.
9) Never operate the air conditioner without the filters in place.
10) Do not use the air conditioners near a bathtub, shower or wash basin.
Note: This unit meets the National Electric Code (NEC), article/section 440.65, which mandates the
use of Leakage Current Detection and Interruption (LCDI).

Installation Instruction
• Air outlet intake on the indoor side should not be blocked by curtains or similar objects.
• The end of the air hose cannot be blocked by shutters or other similar objects.
• Do not bend the air hose when assembling: keep it straight.
• When appliance in cool or dry mode, condensation may concentrate in water box or chassis.
When the box is full, water full indicator lights up (red), and the LCD window shows the error sign E. The appliance will stop running at the same time. Unplug the unit from the outlet, then pull out the rubber plug in drain port located on the bottom of the appliance, drain the water into a prepared container, or drain the water by moving the appliance to a suitable place.
Note: Water should be drained out when the water full light is on. Otherwise, the appliance
will not work.
• Select the best location for your air conditioner. It must be beside a window, door to the outside,
or French window.
• Keep the required distance from the return air outlet to the wall or other obstacles at least 20”.
• Attach one end of each hose to the unit. They will snap in. Connect the other end of each hose to
the window kit that comes with the unit.
• Air outlet or intake cannot be blocked by protective grid or similar object.
• The distance between two ends of the air hose should be kept at 8” at least.
Note: It is not recommended to use only one hose. This will greatly reduce the cooling
capacity of the unit.

Care and Cleaning Guide
• Always unplug your air conditioner before cleaning.
• Air filter needs to be cleaned at least once a week for your unit to operate at optimum efficiency. The filter can be slid out from the back by pulling on the tab. The filter may be washed or vacuumed. Remove the excess water from the filter by gently shaking the filter. This will remove dust and particles trapped in the filter. After cleaning, reinstall the filter. DO NOT use your air conditioner without the air filter in place.
• To clean the cabinet DO NOT use harsh chemicals, abrasives, ammonia, chlorine, bleach, concentrated detergents, solvents or metal scouring pads. Some of these chemicals may dissolve, damage and/or discolor your air conditioner.
• Always use a soft cloth dampened with water or mild soap and water solution to wipe the front of the cabinet. Wipe dry with a soft cloth.
English
Storage
• To store your air conditioner when not being used for a long period of time, drain condensed water using the drain pipe. Remove exhaust hose, clean filters, cover with plastic bag and store away.
Troubleshooting
If air conditioner does not operate:
• Check if unit is plugged in. The plug may have come loose.
• Check if the electrical wall receptacle is of proper voltage.
• Check if the circuit breaker needs to be reset or if the fuse needs to be replaced.
• Check if the unit is in “Off” mode.
• The tank full warning light is on. Call for service.
Air conditioner working but room not cooling:
• Room may have appliances that produce heat. Use an exhaust fan to remove excess heat.
• Check exhaust hose for proper installation.
• Redirect the airflow. Remove any obstacles.
• All doors and windows need to be closed so cool air does not escape the room.
• Air filter may be blocked or may need cleaning.
• Unit BTU may be too low for the required cooling area.
• On extremely hot & humid days air conditioners may take a little longer to cool.
• Unit may be in fan or dry mode. Put air conditioner in cool mode.
