Energy Saving Tips

• Please use the unit in the recommended room size. (Refer to SPECIFICATIONS).

• Do not locate the air conditioner where furniture or other objects can obstruct

the airflow.

• Keep blinds/curtains closed during the sunniest part of the day.

• Close the fireplace damper and floor or wall grills so that cool air does not escape

through the chimney or ductwork.

• Keep the filters clean.

Set the unit to maximum cooling and high speed fan initially, then adjust the unit to a
comfortable setting.

NOTE: It is recommended to turn on the air conditioner when the room temperature
is around 75°F. Do not wait until the room is excessively hot.

Before Use

Setting the Temperature

Turn the THERMOSTAT to regulate the temperature you desire: range 64°F to 90°F.

Setting the Timer

Set the TIMER to the desired operating time (1 to 8 hours).
When the set time has elapsed, the machine will shut off automatically.

Regulating the Airflow Direction

Turn the roller on the air vent to control
the airflow direction from the vertical louvres.

NOTICE!

• The compressor will start approximately 3 minutes after the unit is turned on (this
will help prolong the life of the compressor). After switching the unit off, please wait
at least 3 minutes before turning the unit back on.

• The cooling system will switch off if the room temperature is lower than set.
The fan, however, keeps working at the set level. If the ambient temperature rises above
the chosen level, the cooling will resume.

Important!

• Transport the unit in an upright position only, or leave it in
an upright position for at least 2 hours before first use.

• Always place the unit on an even surface (Figure 1).

• Make sure the unit is connected to a correctly

grounded power supply (refer to the rating label located
at the back of the unit).

• An opening in a window or wall is required to accommodate
the exhaust hose (kit supplied) to expel the warm air.

• Do not cover or obstruct the appliance inlet or outlet grilles (Figure 2).

• To avoid the risk of shock, the product should never be used

in bathrooms, shower rooms or in any other steamy or wet areas.

• Drainage of the water container is required before
moving the unit or putting it into storage.

qualified electrician replace the plug with a suitable one. Avoid the use of
adaptor plugs, multiple sockets and/or extension leads; if their use is
necessary, ensure that they conform to the current safety regulations.

unroll it completely to avoid the possibility of dangerous overheating.
