Device description
The device serves the purpose of cooling the room air. It further
filters and dehumidifies the air thus creating an agreeable room
climate. Additionally, the device can be used as heater.
The unit cools the room air by withdrawing warmth. The
absorbed warmth is emitted to the outside via the exhaust air
hose; cooled air is fed to the installation site by means of a fan.
Accumulating condensate drips from the evaporator onto the hot
condenser, there it evaporates and then is transported to the
outside via the exhaust air hose.
In ventilation mode the device provides the opportunity of air
circulation without cooling effect.
In dehumidification mode moisture is withdrawn from the air.
In heating mode the room air is warmed up.
The device operates fully automatically and features a variety of
further options. The device can, for instance, be switched on or
off automatically with time delay via the timer function.
Operation of the device is possible either via the control panel at
the device or via the supplied infrared remote control.
The device was designed for universal and flexible application.
Due to its compact dimensions it can be easily transported and
used in all interior spaces.

Transport
To make the device easier to transport, it is fitted with wheels.
To make the device easier to transport, it is fitted with a carry
handle.
Before transporting the device, observe the following:
• Switch off the device.
• Hold onto the mains plug while pulling the power cable out
of the mains socket.
• Do not use the power cable to drag the device.

• Only wheel the device on a level and smooth surface.
After transporting the device, observe the following:
• Set up the device in an upright position after transport.
• Leave the device to rest for 12to24hours, so the
refrigerant can accumulate within the compressor. Wait
12to24hours before switching the device back on! Acting
contrary might lead to compressor damage and a
malfunctioning device. If so, any warranty claims will be
voided.

• Before restarting the device, check the condition of the
power cable. If there are doubts as to the sound condition,
contact the customer service.
• Set the device up in an upright and stable position.
• Do not create tripping hazards when laying the power
cable or other electric cables, especially when positioning
the device in the middle of the room. Use cable bridges.
• Make sure that extension cables are unrolled completely.
• Keep air inlets and outlets as well as the exhaust air hose
connection free.
• Make sure that no curtains or other objects interfere with
the air flow.
Prior to initial start-up, insert the batteries in the remote control.
Inserting the air filter
Note
Do not operate the device without an inserted air filter!
Without an air filter the inside of the device will be
heavily contaminated, which could reduce the
dehumidification performance and result in damage to
the device.
• Make sure that the air filter is installed before switching
the device on.
2. Connect the suitable end of the exhaust air hose to the
exhaust air hose connection(7) located at the device.
Discharging exhaust air
• The exhaust air coming from the device contains waste
heat from the room to be cooled. For this reason it is
recommended to discharge the exhaust air to the outside.
• The end of the exhaust air hose can be fed through the

open window. If required, secure the open window with
the corresponding means, so that the end of the exhaust
air hose cannot shift.
• The end of the exhaust air hose can also be hooked into a
tilted window.
For this purpose, we recommend using a window seal
(optional).
• Install the exhaust air hose inclined with the air direction.
• The connected hose must not contain any source of
ignition.

≤
For installing the exhaust air hose please observe the following:
• Avoid kinks and bends in the exhaust air hose, as they
would lead to an accumulation of emitted humid air
causing the device to overheat and shut down.
• The dimensions of the exhaust air hose were especially
made to fit the device. Do not replace or extend the hose,
for it could cause a malfunction.
Connecting the power cable
• Insert the mains plug into a properly secured mains
socket.
