• Never use the mains plug as a switch to start and turn off the air conditioning unit. Use
the provided ON/OFF button located on the control panel.
• Always place the unit on a dry and stable surface.
• The appliance should not be installed in laundry or wet rooms.
32
• The appliance must be placed in a room without sources of ignition (for example: open
ames, an operating gas appliance or an operating electric heater).
• R290 refrigerant gas complies with European environmental directives.
• R290 has a low GWP (Global Warming Potential) of 3.
• The ECOSILENT8 / 8E contains about 220 g of R290 refrigerant gas.
• The ECOSILENT10 / 10E contains about 280 g of R290 refrigerant gas.

(ECOSILENT8 / 8E) or 13.4 m2 per unit (ECOSILENT10 / 10E).
• The room must be such as to prevent stagnation of possible leaks of refrigerant gas as
there could be a danger of re or explosion should the refrigerant come into contact
with electric heaters, stoves or other sources of ignition.
• Refrigerant gas may be odourless.
• Do not use the product and contact the retailer for advice, if damage has occurred to
the unit which may have compromised the refrigerant system.
• Any repairs or maintenance must only be carried out on the unit by a suitably qualied
engineer. Before opening and servicing the unit the authorised engineer must be in
possession of a copy of the manufacturer’s service manual and must follow the safety
information contained within it to ensure all hazards are minimized.
• The refrigerant system should not be perforated or punctured.
Energy Saving and Unit Safety Protection Tips
• Do not cover or restrict the airow from the outlet or inlet grills.
• For maximum performance the minimum distance from a wall or objects should be
50cm.
• Keep the lters clean. Under normal conditions, lters should only need cleaning once
every three weeks (approximately). Since the lters remove airborne particles, more
frequent cleaning maybe necessary, depending on the air quality.
• For the initial start-up set the fan speed to maximum and the thermostat to 5 degrees
lower than the current room temperature. After, set appliance to your desired
settings.
• To protect the unit, we recommend not using the cooling function when the ambient
temperature is higher than 35oC.

INSTALLATION OF WINDOW KIT
The window kit (slide bar and shtail) can be used
with sliding windows an d doors. For other type s of
window, the shtail should be used on its own.
1. Partially op en the window and place
the extende d slide bar in position
before closing the window onto it.
2. Fix the shtail adaptor into the
opening on the slide bar
3. Fix the exhaust connector on the
opposite end of the exhaust hose to
the exhaust outlet on the rear of the
air conditioner.

NOTES:
• The window kit is only designed to be installed with sliding or sash windows or doors. The window
kit is not designed to be used with any other st yle of windows.
• The sh tail adaptor can be used without the slide bar with most windows / doors.
• When using the air conditioner ensure that the opening around the shtail adaptor is as small as
possible to ensure the efciency of the unit is not reduced.
• The best form of installation is through a wall duct. By properly venting you expel hot air from your
room while efciently cooling it.
• Your air conditioner should be used without the vent pipe in dry mode. When using dry mode
ensure that an external water tank is used, monitored and regularly emptied before overowing.
Permanent plumbing can be also installed or an external uplif t water pump can be set up to
allow
for uninterrupted use.
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
The length of the soft hose extends from approximately 30 cm to 180 cm. If hose is extended above this
length, the unit may malfunction which can invalidate the warra nty. The outlet vent mu st be well
ventilated and not obs tructed as this will cause the unit to overheat. Keep the hose as s traight and short
as possible and avoid b ending the air hose by more than 3 0 degrees in order not to reduce the
performance of the unit.
