SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

IMPORTANT!

 Carefully read the instructions before operating the unit.
 This appliance is for indoor use only.
 Rating: This unit must be only connected to a 220-240 V / 50 Hz earthed outlet.
 Installation must be in accordance with the regulations of the country where the

unit is used.

 If you are in any doubt about the suitability of your electrical supply have it

checked and if necessary modified by a qualified electrician.

 This air conditioner has been tested and is safe to use. However, as with any

electrical appliance - use it with care.

 Disconnect the power plug from the socket before dismantling, assembling or

cleaning.

 Avoid touching any moving parts of the appliance.
 Never insert fingers, pencils or any other objects though the guard.
 This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with

reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities. It is also not intended for use by
those with a lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given
supervision or instruction concerning the use of the appliance by a person
responsible for their safety.

 Do not leave children unsupervised with this appliance.
 Do not clean the unit by spraying it or immersing it in water.
 Never connect the unit to an electrical outlet using an extension cord. If an outlet

is not available, one should be installed by a qualified electrician.

 Never operate this appliance if the cord or plug is damaged. Ensure the power

cord is not stretched or exposed to sharp objects/edges.

 A damaged supply cord should be replaced by the manufacturer or a qualified

electrician in order to avoid a hazard.

 Any service other than regular cleaning or filter replacement should be performed

by an authorized service representative. Failure to comply could result in a voided
warranty.

 Do not use the appliance for any purpose other than its intended use.
 The air conditioner unit must always be stored and transported upright,

otherwise irreparable damage may be caused to the compressor; if in doubt
we suggest waiting at least 24 hours before starting the unit.

 Avoid restarting the air conditioning unit unless 3 minutes have passed since

being turned off. This prevents damage to the compressor.

 Never use the mains plug or an external timer as a switch to start and turn off the

air conditioning unit. Use the provided ON/OFF button located on the control
panel.

 Always place the unit on a dry and stable surface.
 This appliance should not be installed in laundry or wet rooms.

Energy Saving and Unit Safety Protection Tips

 Do not cover or restrict the airflow from the outlet or inlet grills.
 For maximum performance the minimum distance from a wall or objects should

be 45cm.

 Keep the filters clean. Under normal conditions, the filters should only need

cleaning once every three weeks (approximately). Since the filters remove
airborne particles, more frequent cleaning may be necessary, depending on the
air quality.

 For the initial startup set the fan speed to maximum and the thermostat to 4-5

degrees lower than the current temperature. After, set the fan speed to low and
set the thermostat to your desired setting.

 To protect the unit we recommend not using the cooling function when the

ambient temperature is higher than 35⁰C.

INSTALLATION

Warning：Before using this unit, please keep it upright for at least 3-4 hours.

This unit can easily be moved from one room to another. While moving the unit
please ensure that it is kept upright and then placed on an even surface.

1. Extend the first 10cm of each side of the hose

2. Screw the hose inlet onto the end of the pipe

3. Screw the hose outlet to the opposite end of the
hose.

4. Put the hose inlet in position on the Air
outlet grille and twist anticlockwise to lock it
into place.

INSTALLATION OF WINDOW KIT

Partially open a window and then fix the window slider kit to the window as shown in the
diagrams below. This method works with most standard sash or vertical sliding windows.
The window kit is not designed to be used with other styles of window, although the kit may
be adapted for use with other windows. Failing this the hose outlet can be used
independently with most windows / doors. The window slider can be placed both
horizontally or vertically, and can be extended to cover the gap. The hose outlet can then
be clipped into the window slider.
