Product Information: Portable Evaporative Air Cooler

The Portable Evaporative Air Cooler is a compact and easy-to-use cooling solution for small to medium-sized rooms. It is ideal for use in homes, offices, and other indoor spaces. The unit operates by pulling in hot, dry air from the environment and passing it through a moistened Honeycomb Cooling Media to produce cool, refreshing air. The cooler also features an Ionizer that helps to reduce particles in the air, promoting cleaner air quality.

CONTROL PANEL

Icons on Display Screen

Applicable for models with Ionizer feature only. Ionizer reduces particles in the air. This is not an air purifier.

FUNCTION BUTTONS

POWER
Press the button to turn the unit on. The cooler will start automatically at medium speed. After a few seconds the speed will switch to low. To turn the unit off, press the button again.

*MODE (COOL / IONIZER^)**
You must add water before operating the unit. Press the MODE button to select COOL and IONIZER modes. Pressing the MODE button until COOL is illuminated on the control panel activates evaporative cooling. The water pump will operate and you will feel the cooler air after the Honeycomb Cooling Media is completely wet.

Pressing the MODE button until IONIZER is illuminated activates Ionizer. An Ionizer helps to  reduce particles in the air, thus promoting cleaner air quality. Pressing the MODE button until both COOL and IONIZER are illuminated activates both evaporative cooling and Ionizer together.

Pressing the MODE button again will deactivate both COOL and IONIZER panel, switching off both evaporative cooling and Ionizer lights on the control function altogether.

SPEED
Press the SPEED button repeatedly to change the speed between.

SWING
Press the SWING button until is illuminated on the display. The louvers will begin to move left to right automatically. You can manually adjust the louvers to change vertical air flow.

COOLER LOCATION

Make sure to position the air cooler correctly before you set up and start using the product. Please refer to the COOLER LOCATION section of the separate Safety & Maintenance Guide.

FILLING WITH WATER

CAUTION:
Unplug the unit from the electrical socket before emptying or refilling the water tank. Open the Water Fill Door located on the back of the unit. The Water Level Indicator is located at the front of the unit. Refill the water tank when water level is low. Do not fill water above the “Max.” water level mark to avoid water droplets collecting on the louvers. Check the water level in the tank before running the COOL function. Make sure that the water in the tank is above the minimum water level mark. Running the unit in COOL mode with inadequate water may cause pump failure.

Note:
The water capacity refers to the total volume of water that can be contained within the air cooler water tank and water distribution system. The water capacity in the tank at the “Max.” indicator level may be lower than the actual water capacity of the air cooler.

WARNING:
Do not fill water tank with dirty water or salt water. This can damage the unit and Honeycomb media.

LOW WATER ALARM

The unit is equipped with a low water sensor. In Cooling Mode, when water in the tank is below the minimum level, you will hear a beeping sound and the GREEN LED will flash continuously. The unit will automatically pause evaporative cooling. Refill the water tank to deactivate the alarm in cooling mode. First switch OFF the unit and unplug from the power outlet. Fill the water tank with water above the minimum water level mark. Plug in and switch ON again. To deactivate the alarm and continue using the unit as a fan (without evaporative cooling), switch the unit OFF and then ON again. The Low Water Alarm will not activate in Fan only mode. The Low Water Alarm will sound again if the COOL function is activated while the water tank is still empty.

CLEANING & DRAINING THE WATER TANK

Below are instructions on how to clean and maintain your air cooler. If the cooler will not be used for a long period of time, please refer to the STORAGE & MAINTENANCE GUIDELINES located in the separate Safety & Maintenance Guide.

WARNING: Before cleaning the unit, power OFF the unit and disconnect from the electrical socket.

• Move the unit to a location where the water can be drained. Remove the cap from the drain plug located at the bottom of the unit. Allow the tank to empty.
• Refill the water tank with clean water, up to the maximum level and drain it completely.
• Use a damp cloth to remove the dirt and dust from the surface of the unit. Never use corrosive elements or chemicals to clean this product.
• When the product is not in use, store the unit in a dry place out of direct sunlight.

CLEANING THE MESH FILTER AND HONEYCOMB COOLING MEDIA

WARNING: Before cleaning the unit, switch the unit OFF and disconnect the power adapter from the unit and electrical socket.

• The appliance is supplied with a Mesh Filter and Honeycomb Cooling Media.
• The Mesh Filter and Honeycomb Cooling Media are located inside the Rear Grill. See Figure 1 for instructions on how to remove them from the unit for cleaning and maintenance.
• Do not run the unit in COOL mode with stale water in the tank. You must empty the water tank and refill with fresh water, especially if the tank has not been cleaned in a long time.
• The cleaning frequency for the Honeycomb media depends on local air and water conditions. In areas where the mineral content of water is high, mineral deposits may build up on the Honeycomb Cooling Media and restrict air flow. Draining the water tank and refilling with fresh water at least once a week will help reduce mineral deposits. If mineral deposits remain on the Honeycomb Cooling Media, the media should be removed and washed under fresh water. The media should be cleaned every two months or sooner, depending on your needs.
• For best results allow the Honeycomb Cooling Media to dry after each use by turning off the cool function 15 minutes before turning the unit off.

Removing the Mesh Filter and Honeycomb Cooling Media:

1. Carefully pull out the rear grill / mesh filter from the cooler.
2. Rinse the rear grill / mesh filter with clean water and let it dry before re-installing to the unit.
3. Carefully pull out the Honeycomb Media from the Honeycomb Frame.
4. Replace or clean media with water and a damp cloth as needed.

WARNING: DO NOT operate the Air Cooler when the Rear Grill is removed from the Air Cooler, or if there is a loose-fitting Rear Grill. Doing so can cause serious injury or dangerous electrical shock.
