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 power outlet before emptying or refilling
the water tank.
Open the Water Fill Door.
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.
Note : If ice is available, you may add ice in the top ice compartment to
enhance the cooling performance.
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
indicator light 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, switch the unit OFF 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 and drain it completely.
- Refill the water tank with clean water, up to the maximum level.
- 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 CARBON DUST FILTER* & MESH FILTER AND HONEYCOMB COOLING
MEDIA
-
The appliance is supplied with a Carbon Dust Filter* & Mesh Filter and Honeycomb Cooling Media.
-
The Carbon Filter* & 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 Carbon Dust Filter & Mesh Filter/ Honeycomb Cooling Media**:
- Carefully pull out the rear grill from the cooler.
- Slide out the Honeycomb Cooling media.
- Slide out the Carbon Dust Filter* & Mesh Filter and clean with water.
- 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.
