ENGLISH
TROUBLESHOOTING
PROBLEM / POSSIBLE CAUSES
THE AIR CONDITIONER DOES NOT FUNCTION AT ALL
• Is the power cable properly inserted into a functioning, grounded outlet?
• Is there a power failure such as a blown fuse or tripped circuit breaker?
• Is the ambient temperature lower than 61°F (16°C)? A safety device prevents the unit
from cooling the room to even lower temperatures.
INSUFFICIENT COOLING
• Is the unit temperature set properly?
• Is the air filter dirty?
• Are doors or windows open?
• Is the room directly exposed to sunlight or are there other heat sources in the room?
• Are there a large number of people in the room?
–19–
Page 20
ENGLISH
WATER BUILD-UP IN THE UNIT, SPLASHING NOISE
• This is not a problem. This self-evaporative unit is designed allow condensate to
build up in the rear of the unit during cooling and dry modes. The rear fan then runs
through the pool of water, splashing it upon the evaporator coils, helping to cool
them down. This makes the unit more eicient and eliminates the need to hook up a
drain hose.
THE AIR CONDITIONER UNIT STARTS AND STOPS VERY FREQUENTLY.
• Verify the rating of your electrical system and outlets. You may need a qualified electrician to troubleshoot and upgrade your electrical circuits if your air conditioner unit
exceeds the rated capacity.
FOG BLOWS OUT DURING COOLING
• In warm, high humidity environments this may naturally occur. Continued cooling
will remove excess humidity from the room and the fog will disappear.
THE UNIT EMITS A STRANGE SMELL
• This may be caused by residue from cooking and cigarette smoke, etc. that remain in
the air conditioning unit. Eliminated the source of the smell and clean the filter.

CUSTOMER SUPPORT
Before contacting customer support, please see the troubleshooting guide above.
Upon unpacking your air conditioner, please be sure to write down the model and serial
number of your unit. This will be needed should your unit require servicing in the future.
The number is found on a barcode on the right side of the air conditioner and on a similar
barcode on the outside of the box the unit came in.
We recommend holding onto the box, but as many people do throw it away, and the air
conditioner itself gets installed in a window, it can be diicult to access this serial number
later.
Model number: __________________ (One of the numbers mentioned on the cover of
this manual). Your exact number is found on your box or on the rating label sticker on the
right side of the unit.
Serial number (11 digits) __________________
