Installation
When you use this portable air conditioner as an air conditioner or a dehumidifier, the
hot air should be exhausted out of the room. When the unit is operating in fan-only
mode, no exhaust is required. You do not need to hookup the window kit and hot air
exhaust hose when you use the unit as a fan.
If you use this portable air conditioner in cooling mode without venting the exhaust
outside the room you are cooling, the net temperature in the room will rise, but the unit
will still cool the area directly in from of its louvers.
This portable air conditioner ships with the accessories for two primary types of
installation: window installation (standard double-hung windows) and wall
installation.
7
1) Exhaust Hose Installation
The exhaust hose must be installed onto the unit before any further installation can
occur.
a) Pull out about 6” of one end of the exhaust hose.
b) Screw the exhaust connector onto the exhaust hose in a clockwise motion.
c) Snap the exhaust connector into place in the back of the unit.

TEMP/ T I ME
TI MER
FAN SPEED
MODE
The six buttons on the remote control are same as the six buttons on the control panel
of the main unit. See the control panel section above for an explanation of how to use
the buttons.
The remote control uses a lithium battery model CR2025. The battery must be installed
prior to using the remote control.
3) Modes
Dehumidifying
1) Plug the power cord into a power outlet.
2) Turn on the unit.
3) Press the Mode button until the LED next to “Dry” lights up.
During the Dehumidifying mode, the unit will condense water out of the air and
exhaust it through the exhaust hose. The ambient temperature in the room will
probably drop by a few degrees while using the Dehumidifying mode.
Notes:
The fan always runs on low speed while in the Dehumidifying mode.
If you do not use the exhaust hose in Dehumidifying mode, you must manually drain
the water from the unit. Additionally, the ambient temperature in the room will
12
probably rise by a few degrees (if you do not use the exhaust hose.)
The Dehumidifying mode will not work in temperatures below 64°F.
Cooling
1) Plug the power cord into a power outlet.
2) Turn on the unit.
3) Press the Mode button until the icon LED next to “Cool” lights up.
4) Select the fan speed by using the Fan button.
5) Set the thermostat using the Temperature / Time buttons. The thermostat is
adjustable between 64°F and 90°F in one degree increments.
Cooling mode cools and dehumidifies your air. If the ambient temperature drops below
the temperature you selected, the compressor turns off and the unit functions with the
fan only. When the temperature rises above the temperature you selected, the
compressor turns on again.
Note:
The exhaust hose must be used in Cooling mode in order to cool a room.
Fan-only
1) Plug the power cord into a power outlet.
2) Turn on the unit.
3) Press the Mode button until the LED next to “Fan” lights up.
4) Select the fan speed by using the Fan button.
Fan-only mode is used to circulate the air in your room. No temperature setting is
needed.
Note:
Fan-only mode does not require that the exhaust hose be attached.
4) Water Drainage
All air conditioners dehumidify the air as they cool. This portable air conditioner is
designed to evaporate and exhaust this condensed water (sometimes called condensate).
When using the Cooling or Dehumidifying modes under extremely humid conditions,
the internal water tray may fill completely. If this happens, the Water Level indicator
on the control panel will light and the compressor will shut off (so that no water is
spilled on the floor.) The unit will continue operating and exhausting water until the
water level lowers. Then the compressor will turn back on and the unit will begin
cooling as normal.
If you want to begin cooling or dehumidifying right away without waiting for the unit
to dispose of the excess condensate itself, you may manually drain the unit.
Manual Drainage
Turn the unit off. Unscrew the cap from the upper drain port. Connect a drain hose to
the upper drain port (one is included with this unit, or you may use a garden hose.) Put
the other end of the drain hose in a bucket. Turn the unit back on. The internal drain
13
pump will pump water into the bucket. When the flow of water stops, you can turn off
the portable air conditioner. Remove the drain hose and reinstall the drain cap. The unit
will now be almost completely drained. If you were draining the unit to allow it to
continue cooling or dehumidifying, simply turn the unit back on to the settings you
want.

Make sure the unit is turned off and unplugged before
performing any maintenance.
Do not immerse the unit in water or other liquids.
Do not pour liquids into the unit.
Some parts may have sharp edges. Be careful to avoid
cutting yourself.
1) Filter
This portable air conditioner has a washable pre-filter that filters contaminants out of
the air. This pre-filter should be cleaned about once every two weeks or as needed. If it
becomes clogged with dust, the efficiency of the unit will be lowered.
1) Remove the filter from the filter compartment in the front of the portable air
conditioner.
2) Wash the filter by immersing it in warm water and lightly scrubbing it with a
gentle soap. Do not put the filter in water warmer than 104°F.
3) Rinse the filter thoroughly and dry it. The filter must be completely dry before
it can be put back into the portable air conditioner.
4) Once the filter is completely dry, reinsert it into the unit.
2) Cleaning the Exterior
Wipe the plastic parts with a slightly damp cloth to clean them.
Use stainless steel cleaner to clean the stainless steel panels.
15
3) Long Term Storage
Do wn Dr a i n
Po r t
1) On a warm day, run the unit in Fan-only mode for a few hours to
exhaust all condensate and to completely dry out the interior.
2) Turn off the unit and unplug it.
3) Empty any residual condensate water by unplugging the lower
drain port and allowing any water accumulated there to drain
out. Reinstall the rubber stopper after doing this.
4) Detach the exhaust hose and collapse it to its smallest size.
5) Take out the filter. Clean and dry it (see the instructions above),
and reinstall it.
6) Cover the portable air conditioner to protect it from dust. It is
generally a good idea to store the unit in its original box and
packaging.
7) Store the unit in a cool, dry place. Do not stack heavy things on
top of it.
