ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
Before plugging the appliance into the mains socket, check that:
• the mains power supply corresponds to the value indicated on the rating plate on the back
of the appliance;
• the power socket and electrical circuit are adequate for the appliance.
• the mains socket matches the plug. If this is not the case, have the plug replaced;
• the mains socket is adequately earthed. Failure to follow these important safety instructions
absolves the manufacturer of all liability.

WHAT IS THE PINGUINO
During the summer, you feel comfortable at a temperature of between 24 and 27° C with a
relative humidity of about 50%.
An air conditioner removes excess moisture and heat from the room where it is located.
Compared with installed models, portable air conditioners have the advantage that they can
be moved from one room to another in the home or be transported from one building to
another.
Hot air from the room is passed through a heat
exchanger cooled by refrigerant gas. Excess
heat and moisture are removed before
the air is re-emitted into the room.
In single unit models, a small part of
this air is used to cool the refrigerant
gas and then, when hot and damp,
is discharged outside.

PREPARING FOR USE
The instructions below will enable you to prepare your air conditioner for operation as efficiently as possible.
Before use, make sure the air intake and outlet grilles are unobstructed.
AIR-CONDITIONING WITHOUT INSTALLATION
Just a few simple steps and your comfort is ensured with your
appliance:
• Fit the air exhaust hose in the housing at the back of the
appliance (fig. 1).
• Fit the window outlet to the end of the hose.
• Place the air conditioner near a window or French window.
• Adjust the length of the hose to reach the window.
• Make sure the air exhaust hose is unobstructed.
• Open the window or French window slightly and position the
outlet (fig. 2).
• If you have a double window, use the sucker provided to hold
the two parts of the window together (fig. 3).
Keep the air hose as short and free of curves as possible to
avoid bottlenecks.
