ENGLISH

During the summer, optimum comfort is achieved with a temperature of between 24 and 27˚C

and about 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 fitted models is that they can 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, losing excess heat and moisture before being discharged again into the room. In single unit models (Pinguino), a small part of this air is used to cool the refrigerant gas before, hot and moist air is being discharged outside. In suitcase models, the circuit is cooled using the air outside.

ECO by Pinguino is the latest generation of ecological air conditioners. Pinguino does not contain gases dangerous to the earth's ozone layer (CFC/HCFC). In addition, thanks to the extreme efficiency of the appliance, not only does it save you money on your electric bills, but it saves the environment by not negatively contributing to the greenhouse effect."

How does your Pinguino work

Pr eparation for use

HOW TO USE THE AIRCONDITIONER WITH WATER

These air conditioners can use both air and water to cool the condenser (the hot part) of the air conditioner.

To utilise 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 in then expelled from the machine as water vapour through the exhaust hose (it does not go into room).

Always use clean top 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 aspect and number of people. In turbo mode the water will also be used more quickly.

You may also use the airconditioner on air cooling only (without filling the water tank . If you only require the lower cooling power.

A) To open the front panel

grip either side of the panel and gently pull the panel towards you and upwards. Remove the tank

Lifting it forward.

B) Turn the tank upside down

and remove the plug, remove the extendible tube and fill the tank, leaving it on the ground.

C) After completing the fil-

ling procedure, replace the extendible hose, replace 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 centre and lower to its closed position.

During the "water functioning" operation and in particularly silent locations (eg the bedroom) a slight gurgling sound may be heard. This is completely normal.

IMPORTANT: if the room temperatur e is 32°C or over the air conditioner must be operated with with water in the tank.
