WARNING - THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED
IMPORTANT
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the
following code:
Green and yellow: Earth
Blue: Neutral
Brown: Live
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead may not correspond with
the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed
as follows:
The green and yellow wire must be connected to the terminal in the
plug marked with the letter E or the earth symbol or coloured
green or green and yellow.
The blue wire must be connected to the terminal marked with the letter
N or coloured black.
The brown wire must be connected to the terminal marked with the
letter L or coloured red.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION (U.K. ONLY)
A) If your appliance comes fitted with a plug, it will incorporate a 13
Amp fuse. If it does not fit your socket, the plug should be cut off
from the mains lead, and an appropriate plug fitted, as below.
WARNING: Very carefully dispose of the cut off plug after removing the fuse: do not insert in a 13 Amp socket elsewhere in the
house as this could cause a shock hazard.
With alternative plugs not incorporating a fuse, the circuit must be
protected by a 15 Amp fuse.
If the plug is a moulded-on type, the fuse cover must be re-fitted
when changing the fuse using a 13 Amp Asta approved fuse to BS
1362. In the event of losing the fuse cover, the plug must NOT be
used until a replacement fuse cover can be obtained from your
nearest electrical dealer. The colour of the correct replacement
fuse cover is that as marked on the base of the plug.
B) If your appliance is not fitted with a plug, please follow the instruc-
tions provided below:

INSTALLATION
The sheathing that connects the external to the
internal unit may pass:
a) through a slightly-open window or door;
b) through a small hole (5.5 cm x 2.5 cm) drilled
in the lower part of a door or in a window
frame by using the frame provided.
USE OF RAPID COUPLINGS
In addition to the methods described above, the
sheathing that joins the external to the internal unit
may also be drawn through a hole (about 6 cm. in
diameter) drilled in a wall linked to the outside.
In this case, the hook-ups with the external unit
must be disconnected as follows:
1) Remove the plug from the electric outlet;
2) Remove the handle by loosening the two
screws and then slipping off the facing.
3) Remove the U bolt by loosening the two
screws.
4) Remove the sheath stop by loosening the two
screws.
5) Using a 24-version wrench, unscrew the union
on the coupling. At the same time, hold the end
of the flexible tube tight by using a 21-version
wrench. Repeat this operation for the second
union using a 24- and a 19-version wrench.
6) Disconnect the condensation tube from the
rubber holder.
7) Loosen the shield’s two self-threading screws
and disconnect the electric hook-up unit.
The path of the connecting sheath should be as
straight as possible, without sharp curves or
kinks.

To re-connect the detached ends of the sheath to
the internal unit, you must repeat operations 1
through 7 in reverse order, being careful to
observe the following precautions:
• Before drawing the sheath through the hole in
the wall, you should wrap the threaded ends of
the speedy couplings with friction tape or the
like as a protective measure.
• Fit the upper two cooling junctures into the two
lower ones and hand-screw them several turns
while checking to be certain they are well-fitted, and then tighten them with the wrenches
used earlier.
• After having hooked up the two cooling junctures, tighten the U bolts.
• Check the grip on the cooling junctures by wetting the joints with a little soapy water.
No bubbles should appear.
Caution:
We recommend that the disconnecting and connecting of the rapid couplings be carried out only
by qualified technicians.
INTERNAL UNIT
Install the internal unit inside the room to be airconditioned. This is usually done under a window
or at least close to an outside wall.
The internal unit must be placed “on the level”,
with the help of the castor-stops provided. No
obstacles should block this unit’s in-take (suction
grille) or out-take (outlet grille) areas.
EXTERNAL UNIT
The external unit may be placed on a terrace or
balcony, in which case the brackets need not be
used.
The external unit can be attached to a wall with the
accessories included as follows:
1) Attach the bracket to the
wall while taking care to
place it as indicated in the
drawing. Use the included
template located on the
plastic cover in order to drill
the holes.
2) Screw the support blocks
to the external unit with
the included M4mm
screws while taking care
to place them so that the
hole for the screws is on
the upper side.
3) Attach the external unit to
the bracket by means of
the M6mm screws.
For temporary installation it is possible to hang the
external unit as illustrated in the drawing. In this
case, use the included straps by attaching them to
the eye hooks. Before inserting the eye hooks
remove the rubber plugs.
The external unit may be installed above or at the
same height as the internal unit, on the condition
that the difference is no more than 1.5 m.
The suction and air-delivery portions of external
unit must not be blocked by obstacles of any
nature.
The distance between the back of the appliance
and the wall must be six (6) cm.
The condensation which forms while this appliance is running (summertime operations) is disposed of by evaporation from the external unit.
If the humidity is too high (in special cases), you
must use the drainage coupling provided to get rid
of condensation. This device must be mounted on
the bottom of the
external unit (see
drawing) after the
rubber plug has
been removed.
We strongly recommend that you protect the external unit
from rain, snow,
direct sunlight and
water dripping from
the roof.

MAINTENANCE
Always pull the plug from the electrical outlet
before beginning any cleaning or maintenance
operations.
For safety reasons, never wash the air-conditioner with water.
CLEANING THE UNIT
Clean your air-conditioner with a damp cloth and
then wipe it with a dry cloth.
Precautions:
Never use gasoline, alcohol or solvents to clean
this appliance. Never spray it with insecticide or
similar liquids, because the paint might then peel
away and the plastic portions might lose their true
shape.
CLEANING THE AIR FILTER
• If the air filter gets dirty, it will be difficult for the
air to circulate and the air-conditioner will lose
much of its efficiency, thus leading to about an
8% increase in electrical consumption. For this
reason, it is a good idea to clean the filter
• Remove the air filter as shown below.
• Use a vacuum cleaner to remove the dust on
the filter. If the filter is very dirty, dip it in warm
water (of less than 40° C.) and rinse it several
times. After having washed the filter, let it dry
completely before putting it back in place.
CHECKS TO MAKE AT A SEASON’S
BEGINNING
Check to make certain that the power cable and
the electrical outlet are in perfect condition and
that there is a suitable earthing system.
Give strict observance to all installation norms.
WORK TO BE DONE AT A SEASON’S END
Turn off the air-conditioner.
Clean the filter and dry it before putting it back in
place.
Cover the air-conditioner with a plastic bag to
keep the appliance from getting dusty.
Remove the batteries from the remote control
device.
