• If the appliance is installed, used or stored in an unven­tilated room, the room must be such as to prevent sta­gnation of possible leaks of refrigerant gas as there
could be a danger of fire or explosion hazard should
the refrigerant come into contact with electric hea­ters, stoves or other sources of ignition.

• The appliance must be stored in such a way as to pre­vent mechanical faults.

• Persons working on or carrying out any operation invol­ving the refrigerant circuit must be in possession of the

uring 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 coil coo­led by refrigerant gas. Excess heat and moi­sture are removed before the air is re­emitted into the room.
In single unit models (Pinguino), a
small part of this air is used to cool
the refrigerant gas and then,
when hot and damp, is
discharged outside.
In models with case (Super­Pinguino), the circuit is coo­led using air from outside.

All Pinguino and SuperPin­guino models can also be
used in fan-only or air
purifying mode.

The Pinguino ECO is a late­st generation environmen­tally-friendly air conditio­ner.
The Pinguino ECO does not,
in fact, contain gases
(CFC/HCFC) dangerous to the
ozone layer or with a marked
greenhouse effect (HFC).
As well as reducing energy con­sumption, the high efficiency of the
appliance also minimises impact on the
greenhouse effect.

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 INST ALLATION

Just a few simple steps and your comfort is
ensured with Pinguino:

• Fit the air exhaust hose in the housing
at the back of the appliance.

Insert as shown in figure A.

• If you have a double window, use the
suckers provided to hold the two parts
of the window together (fig. C).

• Fit the window outlet to the end of the
hose .

• Place the air conditioner near a window
or French window.

• Place the air conditioner near a window or
French window.

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

The power cable must be replaced by a qualified professional only.

AIR-CONDITIONING WITH INSTALLATION

If required, the Pinguino can also be installed
semi-permanently.

• Fit the flange accessory provided in
the hole.

• Fit the hose in the housing at the back
of the appliance (fig. A page 26).

• Fit the end of the hose to the flange

as shown in fig. F.

Proceed as follows:

• Drill a hole in an outside wall or through a
window pane.
Respect the height and dimensions of the
hole as given in figures E and F.

cm

When the hose is not fitted, the hole can
be closed with the flange cap .

NOTE:
When installing the air conditioner semi-per­manently, you should leave a door slightly
open (as little as 1 cm) to guarantee correct
ventilation.

DEHUMIDIFYING

Place the appliance in the room without fit­ting the hose. The dehumidified air will thus be
released directly into the atmosphere.
Cold air will come out of the front grille and
hot air from the back grille (fig. G), thus gua­ranteeing efficient dehumidifying.

Keep the air hoses as short and free of
curves as possible to avoid bottlenecks.
