INSTALLATION

UNPACKING

• Unpack the carton and take the appliance and accessories out.
• Check the device after unpacking for any damage or scratches on it.

Accessories:

1. Exhaust hose
2. Hose connector
3. Window kit adapter
4. Window kit
5. Remote control

Choose your location

• If tipped more than 45°, allow the unit to set upright for at least 24 hours before start-up.
• Place the unit on a firm, level surface in an area with at least 50cm (20″) of free space around it to allow for proper air circulation.
• Do not operate near walls, curtains, or other objects that may block air inlet and outlet. Keep the air inlet and outlet free of obstacles.
• Never install the unit where it could be subject to:
  • Heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other products that produce heat.
  • Direct sunlight
  • Mechanical vibration or shock
  • Excessive dust
  • Lack of ventilation, such as cabinet or bookcase
  • Uneven surface

ATTACH THE EXHAUST HOSE
The air conditioner requires being vented outside so that the exhaust air can escape the room which coming from the appliance contains waste heat and moisture. Do not replace or extend the exhaust hose which will result in decreased efficiency, even worse, shut down the unit due to low back pressure.

1. Step 1: Connect the hose connector to one end of the exhaust hose.
2. Step 2: Connect the windows kit adapter to the other end of the exhaust hose.
3. Step 3: Extend the adjustable window kit to the length of your window. Connect the exhaust hose to the window kit.
4. Step 4: Close your window to secure the kit in place. It needs to hold the windows 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.
5. Step 5: Attach the hose connector to the exhaust air outlet of the unit.
6. Step 6: Adjust the length of the flexible exhaust hose, and avoid bends in the hose. Then place AC near an electrical outlet.
7. Step 7: Adjust the louver at the air outlet, and then switch on the unit.

REMOTE CONTROL

SETTINGS

1. Start-up and Shutdown

   • Press POWER to turn the unit on.
   • The unit runs in FAN as default.
   • Press the MODE button to select the desired operation mode.
   • Press POWER again to turn off the power.

2. Operation mode
   The unit has four operation modes: Cool, fan, dry, and sleep.

   • A. Cooling your room

   • Select the cool mode to lower the temperature in your room. Press the MODE button repeatedly until the LED of operation lights up.

   • Press the UP/DOWN button to adjust the temperature which is displayed on the screen. The temperature can be set between 60.8°F(l6°C) and 89.6°F(32°C).

   • Press the SPEED button repeatedly until the desired fan speed indicator lights up.

   • To control the direction of the airflow horizontally, please adjust the inner louver by hand.
     Note: The air conditioner stops if the room temperature is lower than the selected temperature.

   • B. Ventilating your room
     Press the MODE button repeatedly until the LED of the operation lights up. In ventilation mode, the room air is circulated, but not cooled. Press the SPEED button repeatedly to select the fan speed as desired.

   • C. Drying your room
     Press the MODE button on the control panel or remote control, and the LED of the operation lights up. The fan speed is unable to be selected. The user should connect the hose to the drain outlet at the bottom of the unit.
     Note: In this mode, the fan speed switches over to low speed and cannot be selected.

   • D. Sleep mode (this function can only be used with a remote control)
     The sleep mode can be activated when in cool mode. After 1 hour the preset temperature is increased by 33.8°F(l °C), after another hour the preset temperature will again be increased by 33.8°F(l °C).

3. TIMER SETTING (1 hour – 24 hours):
   The timer has two ways of operation:

4. Automatic Defrost
   At low room temperatures, frost may build up at the evaporator during operation. The unit will automatically start defrosting and the POWER LED will blink. The defrost control sequence is as follows: When the unit operates in the cooling operation, drying operation, the ambient temperature sensor senses the evaporator coil temperature is below 30.2°F(-1° C), after the compressor will stops operating for 10 minutes or the coil temperature up to 44.6°F
   (7°C), the unit restarted to cool operating mode.

5. Overload Protection
   In the event of a power loss, to protect the compressor, there is a 3-minute delay until the compressor restarts.

6. DRAINAGE

   • Self-evaporating system
     The self-evaporating system uses the collected water to cool the condenser coils for better efficient performance. It is no need to empty the drainage tank in cooling operation except in drying operation and high humidity conditions. The condensate water evaporates at the condenser and evacuates through the exhaust hose. For continuous operation or unattended operation in drying operation, please connect the attached drain hose to the unit. Condensate water can be automatically flow into a bucket or drain 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 a drain or bucket and ensure that water can freely flow out of the unit.

   • Do not submerge the end of the hose into the water; otherwise, it can cause an “Air Lock” in the hose.
     To avoid water spillage:

   • As the negative pressure of the condensate drain pan is large, tilt the drain hose downward toward the floor. It is appropriate that the degree of inclination should exceed 20 degrees.

   • Straighten the hose to avoid a trap existing in the hose.

CLEANING AND CARE

CLEANING THE AIR FILTER (every two weeks)
Dust collects on the filter and restricts the airflow. The restricted airflow reduces the efficiency of the system and if it becomes blocked it can cause damage to the unit.
The air filter requires regular cleaning. The air filter is removable for easy cleaning. Do not operate the unit without an air filter, or the evaporator may be contaminated.

1. Press the POWER button to switch off the unit and unplug the power cord.
2. Remove the filter mesh from the unit.
3. Use a vacuum cleaner to suck dust from the filter.
4. Turn the filter over and rinse the air filter under running water.
   Let the water run through the filter in the opposite direction of airflow. Set aside and allow the filter to air dry completely before reinstalling .

Warning!!! Do not touch the evaporator surface with bare hands, or it could cause injury of your fingers.

CLEANING UP OF REFRIGERANT

• General Measures:
  • Gas/vapor heavier than air. It may be accumulated in confined spaces, particularly at or below ground level.
  • Eliminate every possible source of ignition.
  • Use appropriate personal protection equipment (PPE).
  • Evacuate unnecessary personnel, isolate, and ventilate the area.
  • Do not get in the eyes, on the skin, or clothing. Do not breathe vapors or gas.
  • Prevent entry to sewers and public waters.
  • Stop the source of the 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 area before entering. Contact competent authorities after a spill.
