During the summer, optimum comfort is achieved with a temperature of around 75°F (24 °C)
and 50% relative humidity.
An air conditioner removes moisture and heat from the room where it is located. One advantage
of portable air conditioning units over fitted models is that they can be moved from one room to
another in the home or even transferred between different buildings.
The hot air in your room is passed through
a coil cooled by refrigerant gas,
removing excess heat and moisture before being discharged
again into the room.
In single unit models, a small
amount of this air is used to
cool the refrigerant gas,
then the hot and moist air is
discharged outside.

Preparation for use
HOW TO USE THE AIRCONDITIONER WITH WATER
These air conditioners can use both air and water to cool the condenser (the hot part) of the air
conditioner.
To utilise the full potential of your air conditioner, the tank needs to be filled with water . The water
is used to increase the cooling power and reduce the noise level and energy consumption of the air
conditioner. The water that is used is then expelled from the machine as water vapour through the
exhaust hose (it does not go into room).
Always use clean top water (which doesn’t contain salts). As a rule the water will usually last about 8
hours however this depends on the conditions within the room, such as temperature, humidity, insulation and aspect and number of people. In cool jet mode the water will also be used more quickly.
You may also use the airconditioner on air cooling only (without filling the water tank. if you only require the lower cooling power.
25
5
A) To open the front panel
grip either side of the
panel and gently pull the
panel towards you and
upwards. Remove the tank
Lifting it forward.
5
3
B) Turn the tank upside down
and remove the plug,
remove the extendible
tube and fill the tank, leaving it on the ground.
C) After completing the fil-
ling procedure, replace
the extendible hose,
replace the cap and
screw it in tightly. Return
the tank to its place, with
the writing FRONT clearly
visible. Carefully hold the
panel in the centre and
lower to its closed position.
During the "water functioning" operation and in particularly silent locations (eg the bedroom) a
slight gurgling sound may be heard. This is completely normal.
IN HIGH HUMIDITY CONDITIONS
Water is extracted from the air in the room, this water is also used to cool the appliance. When the
humidity is particulary high an excess of water may build up in the internal tank. This can be drai-
ned by removing the bung from the drain hose and draining into a suitable receptacle.
9
IMPORTANT: if the room temperature is 90°F (32°C) or over the airconditioner must be operated
with water in the tank.
2
WARNING: Do not use water containing salt, eg. seawater or water treated using softening
systems that utilize kitchen salt.

ENGLISH
Turning on and setting the timer
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
Before plugging in check that:
• the mains supply corresponds to the
power supply shown on the rating plate;
• the socket and the mains lead correspond
to the power requirements of the appliance;
• the socket is suited to the plug, otherwise
have the socket replaced;
• the socket is properly grounded.
The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for any damages due to failure in following normal safety procedures.
Replacement of the power cable must be
carried out by qualified personnel.
SETTING THE TIMER
The programmer/timer , like all clocks,
must be set to the exact time. If for example
it is 4.00 pm., turn the dial in a clockwise direction (following the direction of the arrow) until
the number 4 is lined up with the triangular
pointer (the arrows indicates 4:00 P.M.
approximately ).

N.B.: Never turn the dial in an anti-clockwise
direction!
The timer is in effect, an electric clock
and works only if the plug is connected to
the power supply. Whenever the plug is
disconnected or there is a power failure,
the programmer stops (the clock is then
“slow”) and must be re-set.
PROGRAMMED MODE
1) Set the operating times by pushing out the
notches on the dial corresponding to the
period required (each notch represents 15
mins.)
2) Press the TIMER key , the signal light
will come ON.
3) Make sure that the timer indicates the correct time (see instructions on setting).

Selecting functions
AIR CONDITIONING FUNCTIONS
To turn the unit on in air conditioning mode,
proceed as follows:
1. Press the ON/OFF button (the signal
light will come on).
2. Rotate the function selector dial anticlockwise:
• Place the function selector in the HIGH
pos. to operate the unit in air conditioning
mode at maximum fan speed, after 3
minutes the signal light will come on ).
• Place the function selector in the LOW
pos. to operate the unit in air condtioning
mode at minimum fan speed (the signal
light will come on, and then, after 3
minutes the signal light will come on ).
3. Now set the required temperature by rotating the room thermostat dial .
Note
The temperature is not expressed in degrees.
We recommend that you turn the thermostat
dial to the maximum position. When the desired room temperature has been reached,
slowly turn the thermostat in a clockwise
direction until it arrives at the position where a
click can be heard. The signal lights (or
) will turn off.
The temperature selected in this way will
automatically be regulated and maintained,
and save energy. When regulating the thermostat, the air conditioning function is temporarily interrupted and the unit continues to
operate in fan only mode. In this way, the
appliance keeps the air temperature within
the room even.
Delay on Start Up
1. A special safety device will delay the start
of air conditionig by approximately 3 to 5
minutes when switching between functions or on initial start up.
2. You may also experience a slight delay
between changing from one function to
another.

COOL JET
The cool jet mode was conceived to provide
the appliance with a greater cooling potential. This is particularly useful when you want to
bring the temperature of a very warm room
quickly down to a more comfortable level. In
this case:
Make sure that the tank is full of water (see
page 8);
Make sure that the function selector switch
is in the HIGH position.
Press the Cool jet button .
After reaching the desired temperature, you
can release the Cool jet button and reposition the selector switch to the LOW pos.
Doing so will make the operation quiter.

PROBLEM WARNING LIGHT
The lighted pilot light indicates that
the safety device of the pressure switch has
switched on. In this case the appliance is
deactivated. To restore the proper functioning of the appliance, eliminate the possible
causes of the problem and press the restore
button .
The causes may be:
1) The exhaust hose forms a siphon in which
condensation water has accumulated: in
this case, it is necessary to drain the accumulated out of the machine, outwards
(never towards the air conditioner) and
eliminate the siphon on the hose.
2) The exhaust hose is obstructed: eliminate
the obstacles which obstruct the expulsion
of the air to the outside.
If, after having repositioned the drainage tube,
the machine still does not start up, the problem
might be more complicated (ex.: obstructed
ventilation fan) and could require the assistance of the Authorised Service Centre.

Descaling
When the scale deposits become excessive
(on average, after about 400 hours of operation) or in any case, at least once each season, it is very important to proceed with the
decalcification of the appliance as described
below.
To remove the scale from the appliance, you
need:
• 20% of descaling liquid
• 80% of clean water
(corresponding to a diluted solution of 75%)
Proceed as follows:
1) Remove the tank from the appliance
and drain the water remaining in the col-
lection reservoir by using the drainage hose (fig. I).
2) Close the drainage hose . Pour 500 ml
of decalcifying liquid and
2 litreS of clean water into the collection
reservoir which is found under the tank
(fig. L), on the bottom of the appliance.
3) Operate the air conditioner for about half
an hour.
4) After this, drain out all of the liquid remaining in the collection reservoir and rinse
thoroughly (fig. I). During the rinsing process, the drainage hose must be open
