Water drainage

• During dehumidifying modes, remove the upper drain plug from the back of the unit and install the drain connector (5/8” universal female mender) with 3/4” hose (locally purchased). For models without drain connector, just attach the drain hose to the hole. Place the open end of the hose directly over the drain area in your basement floor.

• During heat pump mode, remove the lower drain plug from the back of the unit and install the drain connector (5/8” universal female mender) with 3/4” hose (locally purchased). For models without drain connector, just attach the drain hose to the hole. Place the open end of the hose adaptor directly over the drain area in your basement floor.

• NOTE
  Make sure the hose is secure so there are no leaks. Direct the hose toward the drain, making sure that there are no kinks that will impede water flow. Place the end of the hose into the drain and make sure the end of the hose is directed downward to let the water flow smoothly. (See Figs with ). Installation not recommended. (See Figs with X ). When the continuous drain hose is not used, ensure that the corresponding drain plug and knob are installed firmly to prevent leakage.

• When the water level of the bottom tray reaches a predetermined level, the unit beeps 8 times. The digital display shows “P1.” At this time the air conditioning/ dehumidification process will immediately stop. However, the fan motor will continue to operate (this is normal). Carefully move the unit to a drain location,  remove the bottom drain plug and let the water drainaway. Reinstall the bottom drain plug and restart the machine until the “P1” symbol disappears. If the error repeats, call for service.

NOTE
Be sure to reinstall the bottom drain plug firmly to prevent leakage before using the unit.

Timer Functions

Your air conditioning unit has two timer-related functions:
TIMER ON – sets the amount of time after which the unit
will automatically turn on.
TIMER OFF – sets the amount of time after which the unit will automatically turn off.
TIMER ON function
The TIMER ON function allows you to set a period of time after which the unit will automatically turn on, such as when you come home from work.

1.  Press the TIMER ON button. By default, the last time period that you set and an “h” (indicating hours) will appear on the display.
   • NOTE This number indicates the amount of time after the current time after which you want the unit to turn on. For example, if you set TIMER ON for 2 hours, “2.0h“ will appear on the screen, and the unit will turn on after 2 hours.
2. Press the TIMER ON button repeatedly to set the time that you want the unit to turn on.
3. Wait 2 seconds, then the TIMER ON function will be activated. The digital display on your remote control will then return to the temperature display.

TIMER OFF function
The TIMER OFF function allows you to set a period of time after which the unit will automatically turn off, such as when you wake up.

1. Press the TIMER OFF button. By default, the last time period that you set and an “h” (indicating hours) will appear on the display.
   • NOTE This number indicates the amount of time after the current time after which you want the unit to turn off. For example, if you set TIMER OFF for 2 hours, “2.0h“ will appear on the screen, and the unit will turn off after 2 hours.
2. Press the TIMER OFF button repeatedly to set the time that you want the unit to turn off.
3. Wait 2 seconds, then the TIMER OFF function will be activated. The digital display on your remote control will then return to the temperature display.
   • NOTE When setting the TIMER ON or TIMER OFF functions, up to 10 hours, the time will increase in 30 minute increments with each press. After 10 hours and up to 24, it will increase in 1 hour increments. The timer will revert to zero after 24 hours. You can turn off either function by setting the timer to “0.0h“.

Setting both TIMER ON and TIMER OFF at the same time
Keep in mind that the time periods you set for both functions refer to hours after the current time. For example, say that the current time is 1:00 PM, and you want the unit to turn on automatically at 7:00 PM and want it to operate for 2 hours, then automatically turn off at 9:00 PM. Do the following (side figure):

Example: Setting the unit to turn on after 6 hours, operate for 2 hours, then turn off (see the figure below)

Advanced Functions

The FOLLOW ME function enables the remote control to measure the temperature at its current location. When using AUTO, COOL, or HEAT functions, measuring ambient temperature from the remote control (instead of from the indoor unit it self) will enable the air conditioner to optimize the temperature around you and ensure maximum comfort.

1. Press the FOLLOW ME button to activate the function. The remote control will send a temperature signal to the unit every three minutes.
2. Press the FOLLOW ME button again to turn off this function.
   • Used to restore the current settings or resume previous settings.
   • Push this button when the remote controller is on, the system will automatically revert back to the previous settings including operating mode, setting temperature, fan speed level, and sleep feature (if activated).
   • By pressing for more than 2 seconds, the system will automatically restore the current operation settings including operating mode, setting temperature, fan speed level, and sleep feature (if activated).

How to Stay Cool with a New Portable Air Conditioner
Because of a new federal test procedure for Portable Air Conditioners, you may notice that the cooling capacity claims on portable air conditioner packaging are significantly lower than those of models produced prior to 2017. This is due to changes in the test procedure, not to the portable air conditioners themselves.
What should I look for first when purchasing a portable air conditioner?
The right air conditioner helps you cool a room efficiently. An undersized unit won’t cool adequately while one that’s too large will not remove enough humidity, leaving the air feeling damp. To find the proper air conditioner, determine the square footage of the room you want to cool by multiplying the room length by its width. You also need to know the air conditioner’s BTU (British Thermal Unit) rating, which indicates the amount of heat it can remove from a room. A higher number means more cooling power for a larger room. (Be sure you are comparing only newer models to each other- older models may appear to have a higher capacity, but are actually the same). Be sure to “size up” if your portable air conditioner will be placed in a very sunny room, in a kitchen, or in a room with high ceilings. After you’ve found the right cooling capacity for your room, you can look at other features.
Why is the cooling capacity lower on newer models than on older units?
Federal regulations require manufacturers to calculate cooling capacity based on a specific test procedure. Models manufactured before 2017 were tested under a different procedure and cooling capacity is measured differently than in prior years’ models. So, while the BTUs may be lower, the actual cooling capacity of the air conditioners has not changed.
What is SACC?
SACC is the representative value of Seasonally Adjusted Cooling Capacity, in Btu/h, as determined in accordance with the DOE test procedure in title 10 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 430, subpart B, appendix CC, and applicable sampling plans. https://manual-hub.com/.
