CULER Evaporative Cooler
AC/DC Power Adapter
Quick Step Guide
Owner’s Manual
COOL. EASY. PORTABLE.
Evaporative cooling is the reduction in temperature resulting
from evaporation. When water evaporates, it takes heat from the
immediate air, leaving that air cooler in the process – like a cool,
refreshing breeze off the ocean on a hot day.
Our personal cooling products cool the air by ash-evaporating
water, naturally reducing the temperature of the airow propelled
from the unit. No longer is there a need to cool an entire house
or area to enjoy cool air. CULER’s unique technology allows you
to direct a cool stream of air where you need it most whether
indoors, outdoors, or even on the go.

Tips for Optimized Personal Cooling:
• The units are designed for portable, personal cooling, unlike
xed AC that uses chemical refrigerants to reduce the ambient
temperature (temperature on the thermostat) of entire homes and
rooms
• Place the unit at least 3 feet (0.9m) from you and do not block the
cool breeze, as the maximum cooling effect is felt directly in the
stream of airow
• Do NOT use in an enclosed space (small room with closed
windows and doors), as this will increase humidity / moisture and
reduce cooling effect
• Do NOT place on or blowing directly at electronics
• The temperature change of the projected airow will vary
depending on the temperature, humidity and other variables in
your location / application

Care
MAINTENANCE / FILTERS
NOTE: Each cooler has two lters:
One for water:
And one for air:
The lters are located inside the
lter access doors on each side of
the cooler.
It is only necessary to change your
lters if you notice a difference in
the evaporation / performance of
the cooler.
NOTE: Filter style may differ from
image.
NOTE: High mineral count,
calcium, and/or hard water may
reduce the life of the lters.
Although not required, distilled
water may be used to extend the
life of the lters and system.
