Water drainage:

- During dehumidifying modes, remove the drain

plug from the back of the unit, install the drain

connector(5/8 universal female mender) with

3 4 hose(locally purchased). For the models

without drain connector, just attach the drain

hose to the hole. Place the open end of the

hose directly over the drain area in your

basement floor. Please refer to Fig.23 & 24.

- When the water level of the bottom tray reaches

a predetermined level, the digital display area shows "P1". At this time

the air conditioning/dehumidification process will

immediately stop. However, the fan motor will

continue to operate(this is normal).

Carefully move the unit to a drain location,

remove the bottom drain plug and let the

water drain away(Fig.25). Restart the machine until the "P1" symbol disappears. If the error

repeats, call for service.

CAUTIONS

The air conditioner will not operate if curtains, doors or other materials

block the signals from the remote controller to the indoor unit. Prevent any liquid from falling into the remote controller. Do not expose the remote controller to direct sunlight or heat. If the infrared signal receiver on the indoor unit is exposed to direct sunlight, the air conditioner may not function properly. Use curtains to prevent the sunlight from falling on the receiver. If other electrical appliances react to the remote controller. either move these appliances or consult your local dealer.

Replacing batteries

The remote controller is powed by two dry batteries(R03/LR03X2) housed in the rear part and protected by a cover. (1) Remove the cover by pressing and sliding off. (2) Remove the old batteries and insert the new batteries,placing the(+) and (-) ends correctly. (3) Reattach the cover by sliding it back into position.

NOTE: When the batteries are removed, the remote controller erases all programming. After inserting new batteries, the remote controller must be reprogrammed.

Page 13

CAUTIONS

Do not mix old and new batteries or batteries of a different type. Do not leave the batteries in the remote controller if it is not going to be used for 2 or 3 months. Dispose of the old batteries in the special containers to be found in the sales outlets.
