PARTS LIST
INSTALLATION
This unit can easily be moved from one room to another. While moving
the unit please note that it must always be kept upright and then
placed on an even surface.
Remove any packaging - keeping the air cooler in a vertical position.
Make sure all parts are present and unit is assembled correctly including the castor wheels (these need to be pushed into place on the
base of the unit)

To maximize efficiency, position the Air Cooler
according to the following
guidelines:
Place the cooler in front of an open door or
window. Ensure that there is adequate
cross-ventilation in the room by leaving a door
or window open opposite the cooler.
The air cooler should not be used in enclosed
spaces. It must be kept level and there must
be opened to allow free air flow. The air cooler
works best when placed near to an open wind,
so that outside air is drawn into the air cooler,
circulates in the room, then exits via the flow of
air coming out of the air cooler. The maximum
cooling effect is felt when a person is near the
flow of air coming out of the air cooler. The air
cooler produces moisture and can be used to
humidify dry air. To be used for humidification
the windows and doors should be closed.

Cool mode : To put the frozen ice pack into the water in the
water tank. Turn the humidification function on. The product will blow
out the cool humid air to produce the cooling effect.
Fan mode : Turn on the unit and select the desired fan speed. No
water has been added to the water tank.
Ice Pack: The ice pack can absorb any heat in the water, lowering
the temperature and improving the overall cooling effect.
You can use either use the ice pack that has been chilled in the
freezer for 8 hours or simply use ice cubes.

USER TIPS FOR AIR COOLER
What is Evaporative Cooling?
Air Coolers are built to maximize energy efficiency and keep energy
costs low. Warm air is drawn into the cooler and enters the
Honeycomb filter. Water pumped from the water tank pours over the
Honeycomb filter frame. As the warm air passes through the
Honeycomb filter frame, the water absorbs the heat, naturally cooling
and humidifying the air. A fan propels the cooled air out into the room.
This no-compressor system cools naturally, efficiently and
inexpensively.
During the operation:
When humidifying, the water level must not be lower than the MIN
water line. If you want to increase the cooling effect, you can put ice
or the charged ice packs into the water tank, but be sure that by
adding ice or icepacks the water level does not go over the MAX
limit. Empty some water if necessary.
Make sure filter frame is properly inserted at the back of the unit

Note: If you want to remove the water tank, please turn off the unit
and wait for 2 minutes. It is to let the water inside the honeycomb to
go down to the tank before remove the tank from the unit.
Otherwise, the water in the honeycomb will drop down to the slot for
putting the tank.
Once the water level goes below the minimum level, the device
inside the tank will be triggered and the unit will beep three times.
Stop the unit and pull out the water tank. Add the water to max.
level and replace the tank to the unit. Then restart the unit under
cool mode.
MAINTENANCE
Cleaning
ATTENTION: Please shut off the unit and unplug from
the mains before cleaning or performing any
maintenance.
Cleaning the surface
Clean the plastic housing with a duster or a soft wet cloth.
Do not use chemical solvents (such as benzene, alcohol or gasoline)
as they may cause irreversible damage. Make sure no water enters
the control panel.
Cleaning the water tank
Unplug the power cord, remove the honeycomb filter bracket, and then
remove the water tank.
With a cloth (dipped in a mild detergent), wipe the water tank, rinse it
with water, and then carefully place it back in the unit.
Draining the water reservoir and refilling with fresh water at least once
a week will help reduce any mineral deposits and keep the filters
clean.
Do not run the unit in Humidify mode with stale water in the tank.
We recommend emptying the tank and refilling it with fresh water if
water has been standing in the tank for an extended period of time.
The recommended maximum relative humidity level is 60% or less,
which allows a noticeable temperature decrease. The temperature will
be lower in drier climates because higher evaporation occurs when the
humidity is low.
NOTE : When the product is used for the first time the filter frame may
have an odor which will dissipate in a few hours or so of initial use.
CLEANING THE HONEYCOMB FILTER
• The appliance is supplied with a Honeycomb filter.
• The Honeycomb filter are located inside the Rear grille. See Fig 9 for
instructions on how to remove them from the unit for cleaning and
maintenance.
• Do not run the unit in COOL mode with stale water in the tank. You
must empty the water tank and refill with fresh water, especially if the
tank has not been cleaned in a long time.
• The cleaning frequency for the Honeycomb filter depends on local air
and water conditions. In areas where the mineral content of water is
high, mineral deposits may build up on the Honeycomb filter and
restrict air flow. Draining the water tank and refilling with fresh water at
least once a week will help reduce mineral deposits. If mineral deposits
remain on the Honeycomb filter, the Honeycomb filter should be
removed and washed under fresh water. The Honeycomb filter should
be cleaned every two months or sooner, depending on your needs.
• For best results allow the Honeycomb filter to dry after each use by
turning off the cool mode 15 minutes before turning the unit off.
