WARNING

Before using this air conditioner, please read this owner’s manual carefully. This manual is
not a contract and should be used as a reference guide only. We reserve the right to make
technical changes at all times without prior notice.

USE

Thank you for purchasing this 3-in-1 mobile air conditioner. This unit is designed to improve
indoor living and working comfort by providing cooling, dehumidifying and ventilation with mini­mal installation. Unlike traditional portable units, there is almost no tank to empty as the unit
evaporates 80% of the condensate water which is drained through the hot air exhaust hose.
When using this appliance, always take basic safety precautions.

SAFETY NOTES

1. Always place the unit on a flat surface in a cleared out area.

2. The unit must be connected to a grounded power supply properly rated. For your safety, this unit is

grounded through the power cord plug when connected to a grounded wall outlet. Never use an
adapter plug or extension cord, nor plug the unit in a damaged receptacle.

3. Before unplugging the unit, always turn it off. Always unplug the unit before cleaning or servicing it..
When unplugging the unit, never pull on the power cord - always grip the plug.

4. Ensure that removable covers, hoses and other accessories are correctly fitted before running the unit.

5. Do not install or use the unit in the following places :

• near a heat source ;

• an area with possible gas leakage or in an explosive atmosphere ;

• near a bath, shower enclosure, swimming pool, or any other steamy and wet areas ;

• in a greenhouse.

6. Do not apply insecticides or any other flammable products on the unit.

7. Do not start or stop the unit by plugging in or pulling out the power cord.

8. Do not operate with wet hands or spray water or other liquid on the unit, nor immerse

the appliance.

9. This unit is not intended for the use of children and close supervision is necessary when it is operating
near children.

10. Never insert fingers, foreign objects, or anything to obstruct the air inlet and outlet grills. Always
warn children.

11. Do not cover the appliance.

12. Do not expose skin or eyes directly to cool air over a long period of time.

13. If an abnormal odour or smoke comes out of the unit, immediately unplug the unit and contact

SUNRISE TRADEX Customer Service.

14. When opening the filter cover, do not touch the internal metal parts of the unit.

15. Always check the power cord for signs of damage before use. If the power cord is damaged, contact

SUNRISE TRADEX Customer Service.

16. Do not place a plant or allow a pet to be exposed directly to the unit cool air flow.

17. Do not put any combustion appliance in the direct path of the unit airflow ; it could affect the

combustion efficiency.

18. Do not sit on the unit or place anything on the unit.

19. Always store the unit standing up. If the unit is to be moved or carried horizontally, wait 24 hours

before plugging the air conditioner.

20. Before storing the unit in a clean and dry area, drain the water and clean the filter.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

1. The air conditioner must be grounded ; it is equipped with a LCDI

(Leakage Current Detection and Interruption) power cord and plug
This feature will circuit trip the electrical power source if the nominal
current leakage between the cord shield and either load conductor
exceeds a predetermined value. The cord will remain out of power
until the device is manually reset. This is intended to protect against
electric shock and to reduce the risk of a fire in the power cord or
combustible materials nearby. The cord shield is not grounded and
must be considered a shock hazard if exposed. The cord shield
must not be connected to ground or to any exposed metal.

2. Do not cut or bypass the plug ground prong. If you do not have a grounded outlet available
near the air conditioner, have one installed by a qualified electrician.

3. The power supply rated voltage is ± 6%.

4. Do not connect the unit to an outlet being used by other appliances; ideally, connect to a single

grounded 15A circuit (time-delay fuse or circuit breaker).

5. If the power cord or plug is damaged, call SUNRISE TRADEX Customer Service.

• Electrical ratings of the air conditioner are detailed on the rating plate on the back of the unit.

• Basic electrical requirements are listed hereafter. Please make sure to check the following before
installing and connecting your unit.

PREPARING THE AIR CONDITIONER
F

IXING THE CASTERS (Some models only)

To avoid the risk of causing damages to the air conditioner,
you must install the casters before using the appliance.

1. Open the accessory bag and take the 4 casters out.

2. Recline the unit, one side at a time, to insert the unit into

the base holes. Do not recline the unit more than 45°
from the ground.

3. Screw the casters into the base threaded holes.

INSTALLATION OF THE DRAIN HOSE
(Some models only)

You must fix the drain hose before operating the unit.

1. Take out the drain hose, the hose cap and the clamp
from the accessory bag.

2. Insert the drain hose into the drain hole on the lower
back of the unit. Make sure that the drain hose is
correctly inserted into the drain hole.

3. Put the hose cap on the free end of the drain hose.

4. Fix the drain hose on the rear grille with the clamp.

INSTALLATION

CHOOSING THE LOCATION

Place the unit on a level surface in a cleared
out area where the air outlets cannot be
obstructed. For a maximum efficiency, keep
a clearance of at least 50 cm

(20”) front

and rear of the unit (Figure A).

FIXING THE EXHAUST HOSE

• During the operation of an air conditioner,
a large flow of hot air must be exhausted
out of the room. The exhaust hose
supplied with this air conditioner must be
connected at all times (when running in
air conditioning mode) to exhaust the hot
air out.

S

LIDE THE HOSE SQUARE ADAPTOR ALL THE WAY

DOWN OVER THE HOT AIR OUTLET ON BACK OF

THE UNIT

(Figure B).

WALL INSTALLATION

• The hot air must be exhausted outdoor
through a window, a patio door or directly
through the wall.

1. Pick an exterior wall where you will be able

to correctly install the air conditioner and the
hot air outlet.

2. Drill a hole of 13,3 cm (5-1/4”) on the

exterior wall. The hole must be 40 to 130 cm
(16” to 50”) above the floor (Figure C).

3. Fix the external end of the exhaust hose onto

the wall pre-drilled hole.

NOTE :

The hot air exhaust hose must be as short as
possible. To avoid hot air backdraft and
guarantee an efficient exhausting of the hot air,
make sure the hose is not bent, kinked or twisted
(Figure D). In order to do so, please check upon
the following :

• Position the air conditioner as close as
possible to the outside air outlet.

• Unscrew the hose connector, cut the excess
hose and screw the connector back on the hose.

• Do not forget to leave a 50 cm (20”)
clearance all around the air conditioner.

• To maximize the efficiency of the air
conditioner, you may insulate the exhaust hose
with a 6” insulating flexible tube (not included).
