ATTACH THE EXHAUST HOSE
The air conditioner requires being vented outside so that the exhaust air
which comes from the appliance and contains waste heat and moisturecanescape
from the room. Do not replace or extend the exhaust hose which will result
increase deficiency, or even worse, it will shut down the unit due to blowback
pressure.
Step 1: Connect the hose connector to one end of the exhaust hose.
Step 2: Connect the window kit adapter to the other end of the exhaust those.
Step 3: Extend the adjustable window kit to the length of your window. Connect the exhaust hose to the window kit.
Step 4: Close your window to secure the kit in place. It’s needed toehold the window kit firmly in place, and secure the window kit with duct tape if required. It is recommended that the gap between the adapter and the sides of the window should be sealed off for maximum efficiency.
Step 5: Attach the hose connector to the exhaust air outlet of the unit.
Step 6 : Adjust the length of the flexible exhaust hose, and avoidbendsin the hose. Then place AC near an electrical outlet.
Step 7: Adjust the louver at the air outlet, and then switchontheunit.

To turn on (When power off Press Timer key to turn on the timer function. Press Up/Down repeatedly to set the delay ON time.
Cancel timer
Press Up/Down repeatedly until the LED shows “00”. Note: Pressing POWER will
also exit the timer setting
Automatic Defrosting
At low room temperatures, frost may build up at the evaporator during the
operation. The unit will automatically start defrosting and the POWER LED will
blink. The defrost control sequence is as follows:
A. The ambient temperature sensor starts to sense the coil temperature
after the compressor works for 20 minutes. When the coil temperature is below
or equal to30℉for 3 consecutive minutes, the compressor shuts down, the fan
operates at highspeed, and the power light blinks; when the temperature is
over or equal to44℉, the unit exits frost protection.
B. When the unit operates in the drying operation, once the coil temperature esensorsenses the temperature of the evaporator is below 104℉and the differential temperature between the coil temperature and the room temperature is below66℉after the compressor runs for 20minutes, the unit will start defrosting for 5minutesand the power indicator will blink.
Overload Protection
In the event of a power loss, there is a 3-minute delay before the compressor
restartstoprotect the compressor .
DRAINAGE
Self-evaporating system
The self-evaporating system uses the collected water to cool the condenser coils for a more efficient performance. It is no need to empty the drainage etamin cooling operation, drying operation and high humidity conditions. The condensate water evaporates at the condenser and evacuates through the exhaust hose.
For continuous operation or unattended operating in drying, please connect the attached drain hose to the unit. Condensate water can automatically flowing to bucket or be drained by gravity
- Switch off the unit before operating.
- Remove the plug of the water outlet opening, and keep it in a safe area.
- Securely and properly connect the drain hose and make sure it is not kinked and clear of obstruction.
- Place the outlet of the hose over Adrian or a bucket and ensure that water could freely flow out of the unit.
- Do not submerge the end of the hose into water; otherwise it can cause “Air Lock” in the hose.
To avoid water spillage:
- As the negative pressure of the condensate drain pan is high, tilt the drain hose downward toward the floor. It is appropriate that the degree of in culmination should exceed 20 degrees.
- Straighten the hose to avoid condensed water remaining antheses.
CLEANINGANDCARE
CLEANING THE AIR FILTER (every two weeks)
Dust collects on the filter and restricts the airflow. The restricted air flow reduces the efficiency of the system and if it becomes blocked, it cancausedamage to the unit. The air filter requires regular cleaning.
The air filter is removable or easycleaning. Do not operate the unit without an air filter, or the evaporate or may be contaminated
- Press POWER button to switch off the unit and unplug the power cord.
- Remove the filter mesh from the unit.
- Use a vacuum cleaner to suck dust from the filter.
- Turn the filter over and rinse the air filter under running water. Let the water run-through the filter in the opposite direction of air flow. Set aside and allow the filter to air dry completely before re-installation.
Pic 1. Switch off the unit and remove two air filters.
Pic 2. Rinse the air filter under running water.
Warning!!!
Do not touch the evaporator surface with bare-hand; otherwise, it could cause
in jury to your fingers.
CLEANING UP OF REFRIGERANT
General Measures:
- Gas/vapor that is heavier than air may accumulates in confined spaces, particularly at or below the ground level.
- Eliminate every possible source of ignition.
- Use appropriate personal protection equipment (PPE).
- Evacuate unnecessary personnel.
- Do not get the refrigerant in eyes, on skin, or on clothing. Do not brae the vapors or gas.
- Prevent entry to sewers and public waters.
- Stop the source of the refrigerant release, if safe to do so. Consider the use of water spray to disperse vapors.
- Isolate the area until the gas has dispersed. Ventilate and gas test the are before entering. Contact competent authorities after a spill.

DECOMMISSIONING
STORAGE
Long-term Storage−If you will not use the unit for an extendedperiodoftime (more than a few weeks), it is best to clean the unit android out completely. Please store the unit with the following steps:
- Unplug the unit and store the exhaust hose with the window kit.
- Drain the remaining water from the unit.
- Clean the filter and let the filter dry completely in a shaded area.
- Re-install the filter at its origin position.
- The unit must be kept in upright position when in storage.
- Preserve the machine indoor in a dry and safe place with good ventilation and without corrosive gas
ATTENTION: The evaporator inside the machine has to be dried out before the unit is packed to avoid component damage and molds. Unplug the unit and place it in a dry open area for day story it out. Another way to dry the unit is to turn on the machine, adjust it to low-wind ventilation mode, and maintain this state until the drainage pipe becomes dry, so as to keep the inside of the body in a dry state and prevent it from mildewing.
DISPOSAL
**Releasing refrigerant into atmosphere is strictlyforbidden!**
WARNING!!
Do not dispose of electrical appliances as unsorted municipal waste. Use separate collection facilities. Contact your local government for information regarding the collection systems available.
