During the summer, optimum comfort is achieved with a temperature of around 75°F (24 °C)
and 50% relative humidity.
An air conditioner removes moisture and heat from the room where it is located. One advantage
of portable air conditioning units over window models is that they can easily be moved from one
room to another in the home or even transferred between different buildings.
The hot air in your room is passed through
a coil cooled by refrigerant gas,
removing excess heat and moistu-
re before being discharged
again into the room.
In single unit models, the hot
and moist air is discharged
outside.

Preparation for use
HOW TO USE THE AIR CONDITIONER WITH WATER
These air conditioners can use both air and water to cool the condenser (the hot part) of the air conditioner.
To utilize the full potential of your air conditioner, the tank needs to be filled with water. The water is used to increase the cooling power and reduce the noise level and energy consumption of the air conditioner. The water that is used is then expelled from the machine as water vapor through the exhaust hose (it does not go into room).
Always use clean tap water (which doesn’t contain salts). As a rule the water will usually last about 8 hours, however this depends on the conditions within the room, such as temperature, humidity, insula­tion and number of people. In cool jet mode the water will also be used more quickly.
25

A) To open the front panel
grip the side panel and gently pull the panel towards you and upwards. Remove the tank Lift it forward.

B) Turn the tank upside down
and remove the plug. Remove the extendable tube and fill the tank, lea­ving it on the ground.
C) After completing the fil-
ling procedure, replace the extendable hose and the cap and screw it in tightly. Return the tank to its place, with the writing FRONT clearly visible. Carefully hold the panel in the center and lower to its closed position.
During the "water functioning" operation and in particularly silent locations (e.g. the bedroom) a slight gurgling sound may be heard. This is completely normal.
IN HIGH HUMIDITY CONDITIONS Water is extracted from the air in the room, this water is also used to cool the appliance. When the humidity is particulary high an excess of water may build up in the internal tank. This can be drai-
ned by removing the stopper from the drain hose and draining into a suitable receptacle.
9
IMPORTANT: If the room temperature is 90°F (32°C) or over the air conditioner must be operated with water in the tank.

Turning on and setting the timer
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
Before plugging in check that:
• the mains outlet corresponds to the power outlet shown on the rating plate;
• the outlet and the mains lead correspond to the power requirements of the appliance ;
• the plug should fit the outlet, otherwise have the outlet replaced;
• the outlet is properly grounded.
The manufacturer cannot be held
responsible for any damages due to failure
in following normal safety procedures.
Replacement of the power cord must be
carried out by qualified personnel.
SETTING THE TIMER
The programmer/timer , like all clocks, must be set to the exact time. If for example it is 4.00 pm., turn the dial in a clockwise direc­tion (following the direction of the arrow) until the number 4 is lined up with the triangular pointer (the arrows indicates 4:00 P.M. approximately ).

AIR CONDITIONING FUNCTIONS
To turn the unit on in air conditioning mode, proceed as follows:
1. Press the ON/OFF button (the signal
light will come on).
2. Rotate the function selector dial counter-clockwise:
• Place the function selector in the HIGH position to operate the unit in air condi­tioning mode at maximum fan speed, after 3 minutes the signal light will come on.
• Place the function selector in the LOW pos. to operate the unit in air condtioning mode at minimum fan speed after 3 minu­tes the signal light will come on.
3. Now set the required temperature by rota­ting the room thermostat dial .
Note
The temperature is not expressed in degrees. We recommend that you turn the thermostat dial to the maximum position. When the desi­red room temperature has been reached, slowly turn the thermostat in a clockwise direction until it arrives at the position where a click can be heard. The signal lights (or
) will turn off. The temperature selected in this way will automatically regulate and maintain the temperature and save energy. When regula­ting the thermostat, the air conditioning func­tion is temporarily interrupted and the unit continues to operate in fan only mode. In this way, the appliance keeps the air temperatu­re within the room constant.
Delay on Start Up
1. A special safety device will delay the start
of air conditionig by approximately 3 to 5 minutes when switching between func­tions or on initial start up.
2. You may also experience a slight delay
between changing from one function to another.

PROBLEM WARNING LIGHT
The pilot light indicates that the safety device of the pressure switch has swit­ched on. In this case the appliance is deac­tivated. To restore the proper functioning of the appliance, eliminate the possible causes of the problem and press the restore button .
The causes may be:
1) Water has accumulated in the exhaust hose: in this case, it is necessary to drain the water out of the machine, outwards (never towards the air conditioner) and eliminate the water in the hose.
2) The exhaust hose is obstructed: eliminate the obstacles that obstruct the release of air to the outside.
If, after having repositioned the drainage tube, the machine still does not start up, the problem might be more complicated (ex.: obstructed ventilation fan) and could require the assistan­ce of a Delonghi Authorized Service Center.
