ELECTRIC CONNECTION
For your safety please read the following information.
Warning: This appliance must be earthed.
The appliance is supplied with a moulded 13 amp 3 pin mains plug fitted with a 13 amp fuse. Should
the fuse require replacement, it must be replaced with a fuse rated at 13 amp and approved to BS1362.
The plug contains a removable fuse cover that must be refitted when the fuse is replaced. In the event
of the fuse cover being lost or damaged, the plug must not be used until a replacement cover has been
obtained.
If the moulded mains plug is unsuitable for the socket outlet in your home or is removed for any other
reason, then the fuse should be removed and the cut off plug disposed of safely to prevent the hazard
of electric shock.
There is a danger of electric shock if the cut off plug is inserted into any 13 amp socket outlet.

Air flow
On the moment the air conditioner is connected to the mains, the louvres
open and close and stay closed.
• When the ON-button is pressed, the louvres open to maximum and
return to an angle of 75° above the upper plane of the louvres housing.
• Press the
-button, the louvres will swing continuously up and down
between 30° and 80° above the upper plane of the louvres housing.
• By pressing the -button again the movement will stop and the louvres
remain in that position. The direction of the air flow is then constant.
• When the OFF-button is pressed, the louvres close.
This way of directing the air flow is particularly convenient when using
the remote control: a user friendly approach to your comfort.
In order to direct the air flow to a lower angle, raise the louvres housing
by pulling it up only by the centre of its back rim.

and dust. Selected models have the 3M Filtrete™ filter as standard. However, if you
require to add this to your model, or wish to purchase a replacement, call Amcor for details.
2. A screen filter in the lower air inlet, to remove dust particles.
NOTE! The active carbon filter and the 3M Filtrete™ filter are delivered in a plastic packaging. Don’t
forget to install these filters. These filters take away unhealthy particles out of the room environment.
The filter holder on the rear of the unit can be opened. The active carbon filter and 3M Filtrete™
filter can be installed or removed. The screen filter is part of the filter holder ( see illustration).

• - for setting the actual time.
• TIMER ON - for programming the time when the unit is ON.
• TIMER OFF - for programming the time when the unit is OFF.
