THANK YOU
Congratulations on your purchase of this versatile Honeywell Evaporative Air Cooler. For optimum cooling from your cooler, fill the water tank to maximum level and load ice inside the ice compartment before you turn on your air cooler.
Cooler Location – Indoors (Important - Please Read!)
Place the cooler in front of an open door or window. Ensure that there is adequate cross - ventilation in the room by leaving a door or window open opposite the cooler.
Following these guideline will ensure your cooler will work as effectively as possible.
Not an Air Conditioner (Important - Please Read!)
The evaporative air cooler is not an air conditioner as it does not use a compressor or refrigerant gas. It should not be expected to cool as efficiently as a refrigerated air conditioner.

USER TIPS
Energy Efficient, No Compressor
Honeywell Evaporative Air Coolers are built to maximize energy efficiency and keep costs low. Warm air is drawn into the cooler through a dust and odor-reducing carbon filter and enters the Honeycomb Cooling Media. Water pumped from the tank pours over the Honeycomb Cooling Media. As the warm air passes through the Honeycomb Cooling Media, the water absorbs the heat, naturally cooling and humidifying the air. A fan propels the cooled air out into the room. This no-compressor system cools naturally, efficiently and inexpensively.

USER TIPS
Indoor Use
The recommended maximum relative humidity level is 60% or less, which allows a noticeable temperature decrease. The temperature decrease will be greater in drier climates because higher evaporation occurs when the humidity is low.
The evaporative air cooler should not be used in enclosed spaces. It must be kept level and there must be water in the water tank. The room should have doors and windows opened to allow free air flow. The evaporative air cooler works best when placed near an open window, so that outside air is drawn into the evaporative air cooler, the air circulates in the room, then exits via the door. The maximum cooling effect is felt when a person is in the flow of air coming out of the evaporative air cooler.
The evaporative air cooler can also be used to humidify dry air during cool weather. To be used for humidification the windows and doors should be closed to allow the humidified air to accumulate.
Room with open windows & door (RECOMMENDED)
Outdoor Use |

(NOT-RECOMMENDED) |

Unit should be placed a minimum 10 inches away from any wall.
NOTE (Important - Please Read!)
When the product is used for the first time the Honeycomb Cooling Media will have an odor which will dissipate in a few hours or so of initial use.
