Information about the device

Description of the device
The air cooler lowers the room temperature to a comfortable degree by evaporation-based cooling.
The device is filled with cold water or optionally with ice cubes and / or ice packs in order to cool down the incoming warm air at the evaporation filter and to blow out the  cold air thus generated via the fan.
Besides its cooling function, the device can also be used for air freshening: thanks to an integrated air filter and the evaporation filter’s honeycomb structure, the sucked-in air is  filtered and humidified.
The fan speed can be set to three stages.
The discharge direction of the cooled air can be manually adjusted via the ventilation flaps as well as via the optionally selectable automatic swing mode.
The device has a night mode enabling ultra-silent operation at bedtime.
The device can be operated via the control panel at the device or via the infrared remote control.
Moreover, using the timer function, the device can be switched off automatically with time delay.
