    When the hose is not in use, place the cap (#15) on the connector to cover the hole on the wall.
    NOTE: When installing the air conditioner semi-permanently, to maintain the balance of air pressure between indoors and outdoors always leave an internal door slightly open.

HOW TO INSTALL THE WINDOW SEAL KIT

The window seal kit is included in the reference AU5610F0/AU5620F0. It can be bought as a Rowenta accessory with reference XD6620F0 (#16). Before installation, check that the adhesive gripping tape do not damage your window.

CONTROL PANEL

Power Control (A)
The power control turns the unit on and off. After switching the air conditioner off, you must wait 3 minutes before switching it back on again.
Warning Light “FULL” (B)
Condensed water may accumulate in the unit.
If the internal tank becomes full, the warning light will come on and the unit will stop operating until the unit has been drained (evacuation #9). To drain the unit, refer to PRECAUTIONS OF USE (storage) page 14.
Eco-mode (C)
Operation only in the 2 modes below by pressing the ECO button.

  • Cooling mode : in this mode, the target temperature is automatically set to -3°C from the room temperature to save energy. The speed is set automatically. After 3 seconds, the display will return to room temperature. When the target temperature is reached, the compressor stops but the ventilation continues at speed 1 in order to circulate the air in the room

  • Fan mode : the fan speed is automatically adjusted according to the temperature.
    Speed 3 if the room temperature is above 28°C.
    Speed 2 if the room temperature is between 25°C and 28°C.
    Speed 1 if the room temperature is below 25°C.
    Mode Control (D)
    The mode control has three settings. A light indicates which mode is currently being used.

  • Cooling mode: During the cooling mode the air is cooled and hot air is expelled through the heat exhaust hose (#11). Adjust fan speed and air temperature to suit your desired comfort level. Use the buttons (-) and (+) to set the desired temperature between 16 and 32°C. After 10 seconds the display will revert to room temperature. Note: the air exchange hose must vent outside the room when using cooling mode.

  • Dehumidify mode : Air is dehumidified as it passes through the unit, without being in full cooling mode. In this mode, If the temperature is higher than 25°C, fan speed can be adjusted; otherwise, fan speed is fixed to “low”. In this mode, do not connect the exhaust hose and let the warm air return to the room. You will need to drain the unit to evacuate the water: refer to PRECAUTIONS OF USE (storage) page 14.

  • Fan mode : air is circulated throughout the room with no cooling. The air exchange hose does not need to be installed in this mode Adjust fan speed to suit your desired comfort level.

Fan Speed Control (E)
The fan speed control has three settings: High, Medium, and Low.
The choice of speed 1, 2 or 3 ( ) allows you to adjust the amount of air- cooled by the air conditioner while maintaining a similar noise level: +40m3/h between each speed, which is equivalent to an additional «cooling» of the amount of air in a room of about 16m² (room height 2.5m) in 1 hour. Oscillation (F)
Swing Control: The SWING button moves the grille flap, evenly distributing the air into the room. When the SWING button is pressed, the flap will begin to move forwards and backward alternatively. If pressed again, the flap will be locked into its current position. When the button is next pressed, the flap will start to move forwards and backward again.
Note: in order to avoid damaging the internal mechanisms, the flap must not be moved manually.
Note: After switching the air conditioner off, you must wait 3 minutes before switching it back.
Timer (G)
Auto turn OFF: with the machine in running mode, press the timer button. Then set the desired working time in hours before shutting down by pressing the “+” or “-” buttons.
Auto turn ON: With the
machine in OFF mode, press the timer button.
Then set the desired time delay ON in hours by pressing the “+” or “-” buttons before the unit automatically starts running in the latest used mode. The time is adjustable between 1 to 24hours
Remote control
The remote control uses 2 x AAA or LR03 1.5V batteries which are not included.
To change the remote’s battery, remove the cover on the back of the remote controller and insert batteries with the (+) and (-) poles pointing in the proper direction.
Remove the batteries if the remote control is not used for a month or longer.
Remote control operations are identical to the functions on the control panel. Please take care not to scratch or damage the transmitter (LED) located on the end of the remote control as this will impair its proper operation.
