Energy-Saving Tips
This appliance is designed to be highly efficient
in energy savings. Follow these recommendations for greater efficiency.
1)Select a thermostat setting that suits your comfort needs and leave at that chosen setting.
2)The air filter is very effcient in removing airborne particles. Keep the air filter clean at all times.
3)Use drapes, curtains or shades to keep direct sunlight form penetrating and heating room, but
do not allow drapes or curtains to obstruct the air flow around the unit.
4)Start your air conditioner before the outdoor air becomes hot and uncomfortable. This avoids an
initial period of discomfort while the unit is cooling off the room. Use of the automatic start/stop programmable TIMER feature can be a major asset in this regard if utilized to the fullest extent.
5)When outdoor temperatures are cool enough, turn the air conditioner off and use the FAN MODE on HIGH, MED or LOW. This circulates indoor air, providing some cooling comfort and utilizes less electricity.

Window Kit Installation
Your window kit has been designed to fit most
standard "vertical"and "horizontal" window
applications. However, it may be necessary for
you to improvise/modify some aspects of the
installation procedures for certain types of
windows. Please refer to Fig. 2 & Fig. 2a for minimum and maximum window openings.
Water Tank Safety Feature
This unit is equipped with a fail-safe switch mechanism which prevents the unit from condensing water in the event the water tank is accidentally displaced, and/or FULL with water. If this situation occurs, the unit will signal 8 BEEPS and the
WATER FULL indicator light will flash red continuously until the water tank is correctly positioned and/or emptied.
NOTE: The fan motor will continue to operate under this condition. This is normal, but no cooling or dehumidifying will occur until the tank is emptied and/or correctly installed (It may take several minutes before the compressor resumes normal operation).
