CONTROL PANEL COVER

Grasp the right of the control panel cover and pull it upwards to open it .
Close the control panel cover and press the right of the cover again until it snaps into the locked position.

AIR FILTER

The air filter behind the inlet grille should be checked and cleaned at least once every 2 weeks (or as necessary) to maintain optimal performance of the air conditioner.

How to remove the air filter

1. Hold the tabs under the front panel, then uplift it outwards, and remove the front panel.
2. Pinch the handle under the air filter and make the air filter arched, remove it from the slot from underside to upside.
3. Clean the filter with warm, soapy water. The water should be below 40OC to prevent distortion of the filter.
4. Rinse off and gently shake off excess water from the filter. Allow the filter to dry before replacing it. To prevent distortion of the filter, do not dry in direct sunlight.

Vertical airflow adjustment (manually)

To adjust vertical air flow direction of the up or low horizontal louvers, adjust any one of the up or low horizontal louver blades.

Drainage

To meet different requirement of different type of air conditioner, there are three kinds of methods for your choice to treat the condensed water.
See the following procedures to perform back drainage:

1. Fit the seal onto the drain joint (which provided with your air conditioner accessory).
2. Remove the rubber plug from the back of the unit (If applicable),and insert the rubber plug (which provided with your air conditioner accessory) into the bottom drain hole of the unit.
3. Attach the drain joint to the back of the cabinet where you remove the plug and rotate 90 to securely assemble them.
4. Connect the drain joint with a extension drain hose .(Please buy yourself)
   Note:
   If you choose non-drainage,both the bottom and the back drain hole of the unit should be inserted with the rubber plug.

See the following procedures to perform bottom drainage:

1. Remove the rubber plug from the bottom of the cabinet and attach to the back drain hole. For the units without the bottom rubber plug, just install the drain tray.
2. Take out the drain tray and screws (which provided with your air conditioner accessory).
3. Install the drain tray at the bottom of the unit and secure with screws provided.
4. Connect the drain hose to the outlet located at one side of the drain tray. You can purchase the drain hose or tubing locally to satisfy your particular needs .
   Suggestion: To ensure the condensed water drain off smoothly, always keep the drain oulet of the the drain tray downward when install the drain tray.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTION

Select the best location

1. To avoid vibration and noise, make sure the unit is installed securely and firmly.

2. Install the unit where the sunlight does not shine directly on the unit.
   If the unit receives direct sunlight, build an awning to shade the cabinet.

3. There should be no obstacle, such as a fence or wall, within 50cm from the back of the cabinet because it will prevent heat radiation of the condenser. Restriction of outside air will greatly reduce the cooling and heating efficiency of the air conditioner.

4. Install the unit a little obliquely outward not to leak the condensed water into the room (about 1Omm or 1/4 bubble with level).

5. Install the unit with its bottom portion 75-150cm above the floor level.

6. The power cord must be connected to an independent circuit. The yellow/green Wire must be grounded.

installation of the housing

• Step 1
  Remove the air conditioner from it’s packaging, remove fixing  Screws and slide the air conditioner out of it’s housing (Referto Installation Steps).

• Step 2
  Prepare the hole in the wall so that the bottom of the housing is well supported, the top has minimum clearance and the air inlet louvers have clearance as shown below in options AandB. Holes from the outside through to the cavity should be  sealed. The housing should slope down towards the rear byabout 5mm to allow water formed during operation to drain.

• Step 3
  Install the housing into the wall and secure. Ensure the foam seals are not damaged. Flash, seal or fill gaps around the inside and outside to provide satisfactory appearance and protection against the weather, insects and rodents.

installation of the unit into the housing

1. Slide the unit into the housing until it is firmly against the rear of the housing. Care is required to ensure the foam sealing strips on the housing remain in position.
2. Connect the air conditioner to the power and position excess cord length beneath the air conditioner base.
3. Engage the chassis fixing brackets into the bottom housing rail and secure to the base with the screw provided.
4. Remove the front panel from it’s carton and plastic bag and fit as per the Installation Instruction.
5. Switch unit on. Check for operation of the unit and check for vibration in the installation.
6. Fit the drain pan to the housing and run a drain line to a suitable location if required.

2. Fix the screws on the frame (See Fig.3).

• Step 5. Install the air filter and front panel.
  1. Install the air filter into the frame’s slot from upside to underside (See Fig.2).
  2. Hang the front panel on the frame’s buckle, then press the front panel into the frame’s slot until you hear a click (See Fig10).

TROUBLESHOOTING

Troubleshooting tips

Save time and money! Review the chart below first and you may not need to call for service.
