IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
To prevent injury to the user or other people and property damage, the following instructions must be followed.
Use this appliance only as described in this manual. As with any electrical appliance, the instructions aim to cover as many
eventualities as possible. Caution and common sense should be used when operating and installing this air conditioner.
This appliance has been manufactured to cool, heat and dehumidify domestic environments and should not be used for other
purposes.
The appliance should not be installed where the atmosphere may contain combustible gases, oil or sulphur, or near heat sources.
Always install the portable air conditioner properly. Incorrect assembly or installation may cause failure to operate including injury,
fire and electric shock hazards.
Do not place the power cord near a heater. It may cause fire or electric shock.
Do not use the power cord near flammable gas or combustibles such as gasoline, benzene, thinner, etc. It may cause explosion or
fire.
Do not operate or stop the unit by inserting or pulling out the power plug. It may cause fire or electric shock.
Do not damage or use an unspecified power cord. It may cause electric shock or fire.
Do not modify the length of the power cord. It will cause electric shock or fire due to heat generation.
Use the air conditioner on a single outlet circuit. Do not share the outlet with other appliances. It may cause circuit failure.
Changing the outlet without making the appropriate wiring changes will create an unsafe condition that could result in fire or
electrical shock. Refer all such work to a licensed and qualified electrician.
WARNING: This appliance must be properly grounded. The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a three-prong LCDI
plug. To minimize the risk of electric shock, use the plug with a standard three-slot grounding wall power outlet. If the power outlet
does not include a grounding slot, have a qualified electrician replace the outlet before you use the room air conditioner. Do not
cut or remove the grounding prong from the power plug. If you have doubt whether the air conditioner is properly grounded, have
the wall receptacle and circuit checked by a qualified electrician.
Do not disassemble or modify this appliance. Doing so may cause failure and electric shock.
TEMPORARY USE OF AN EXTENSION CORD. We strongly discourage the use of an extension cord due to potential safety hazards.
For temporary situations, use only CSA and UL certified 3-prong grounded extension cords designed and approved specifically for
air conditioners.
To prevent injury from handling sharp objects, do not touch the metal parts of the unit when removing the filter
Do not block the air inlet or air outlet. It may cause failure of the appliance.
Always store and transport the air conditioner upright to maintain the compressor in a proper condition. Prior to installation, allow
air conditioner to stand upright for 12 hours.
Only operate the unit on a horizontal surface to ensure no water leaks.
The appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack
of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person
responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
Do not use in the socket if it is loose or damaged. It may cause fire and electric shock.
Unplug the unit if strange sounds, odors or smoke come from it.
Hold the plug by the head when unplugging the unit. Do not yank on the cord.
Unplug the air conditioner if it will not be used for a long period to prevent accidental startup and the possibility of injury.
Do not place heavy objects on the power cord and take care so that cord will not be damaged.
Clean the air filters regularly. Contaminated air filter reduces capacity.

Use a soft cloth to clean. Do not use wax, thinners or a strong detergent. The appearance of the air conditioner may deteriorate,
change color or develop surface flaws.
Do not use water to clean inside the air conditioner. Exposure to water can destroy the insulation, leading to possible electric shock.
When water enters the product, turn off the power switch of the main body of the appliance. For repair and maintenance, contact
an Authorized Service Centre. For warranty, refer to the warranty page for details and contact the service center 1-800-4-MYHome.
Being exposed to direct airflow for an extended period of time could be hazardous to your health.
Do not use this air conditioner for non-specified refrigeration purposes (e.g. preserving precision devices, food, pets, plants, and
art objects.) Such usage could cause damages to them.
Due to the possibility of oxygen deficiency, ventilate the room when used together with stoves or other heating devices.
The air conditioner is a consumer comfort appliance, not a precision climate control system.
Always insert the filter securely. Never operate without a filter.
Do not drink water drained from air conditioner. It contains contaminants that may make you sick.
When using the A/C in conditions where the temperature may fall below 10°, the unit must be moved to an area where
temperatures are higher than 10°. Failure to do so can cause severe damage to the unit.

other obstacles such as furniture. The plug should be easily
accessed after the appliance is positioned.
3. If the unit is to be placed outside of the room to be cooled, you
should try to position the unit on a flat solid surface and in an
area protected from rain and sun exposure such as sunroom,
veranda or hallway. You should not operate the unit in moist
areas, such as e.g. saunas or similar areas.
WINDOW KIT INSTALLATION
The Window Kit (included) has been designed to fit most standard vertical and horizontal windows. It may
be necessary to improvise some aspects of the installation procedures for certain types of windows.
Note: If the window opening is less than the mentioned length of the window slider kit, make the Window
Slider Kit shorter by cutting it on the side with a hole to fit the window opening, be careful not to cut off the
hole.
The hose must be attached to the correct side of the unit for the given installation (see operating instructions).
To change the hose to the other side of the unit, gently lift upwards the output vent cover, move hose unit to
the other side then replace the output vent cover on the other side hose was just removed from.
