 PRODUCT OPERATION

PLACEMENT AND INSTALLATION

Placement

• Place it at even and dry place, and keep it at least 50cm away from its surrounding object.

Installation

• Screw the exhaust duct assembly in the air outlet behind the panel(anticlockwise).
• Insert the air exhaust hose into the window sealing plate, adjust the opening width of window so that the window can match with the sealing plate properly. The length of the sealing plate is adjustable.

Incorrect installation

• It’s important to keep the exhaust duct smooth. Correct installation will affect work of the A/C.
• Prevent the exhaust duct from seriously bending.
• Ensure air can flow smoothly in the duct.

Warning: The exhaust duct is designed especially for this model. Don’t replace or lengthen it, otherwise it will result in failure.

Notice: Max. developed length of the exhaust duct is 1,500mm. It’s better to shorten it while use and keep it horizontal while installation.
It is recommended to use an original exhaust duct with a length of 150cm. If additional length is needed, we recommended to add one original exhaust duct only, total length is 300cm. Otherwise, if the length is too long, it will cause insufficient heat dissipation and resulting in failure. Warranty does not apply under improper use.

OPERATION METHOD

cooling mode

• When the A/C enters cooling mode automatically or cooling mode is selected after power ON, the cooling indicator lamp lights up.
• Press Up/Down key to adjust setting temperature (16℃~30℃).
• Press Speed key to choose High/Mid/Low speed.

Fan mode

• When pressing mode key or choosing Fan mode by pressing the remote controller, the wind indicator lamp lights up.
• Press Speed key to choose High/Mid/Low speed.
• The temperature can’t be set.

Dehumidification mode

• When pressing mode key or choosing dehumidification mode by pressing the remote, the dehumidification indicator lamp lights up.
•  Remove the dehumidification water wedge, insert water manifold, place the other end of the water manifold into the water vessel or drainage passage, as shown in the right figure.
• After entering the dehumidification mode, if room tempearture≥17℃ (62℉) , the compressor is ON. Then control as follows: when room temperature ≤15℃( 59℉) the compressor is OFF; when temperature increases to room temperature≥17℃, the compressor is started again (in order to protect the compressor, it will be restarted 3min.later).
• In dehumidification mode, the fan is defaulted to run at low speed, and wind speed can’t be adjusted.
• The temperature can’t be set. （ Note: when use dehumidify function, should remove exit pipe components, otherwise, it will cause worse dehumidify performance and appear “FL” water full alarm）

Timer mode

• In ON state, pressure the timer key to set OFF time. Press Up and Down keys to set OFF time (1~24H), and the timer indicator lamp light s up.

 CLEAN AND MAINTENANCE

DRAINAGE METHOD
This product is equipped with an automatic water vaporization system. The condenser is cooled with the circulating of condensing water, so as to improve cooling efficiency and save energy.

• If it is found that the water full light is on or there is water leakage, it is recommended to install the upper drain pipe first. If the water leakage is still continued, you can install the lower drain pipe instead.
• If the internal vessel is full of water, the display screen will display “FL”, and the compressor stops working automatically. After power off, unscrew the water cover, pull out the water wedge to drain off water, and it will become normal after being restarted.

MAINTENANCE

Notice: in order to avoid electric shock, please turn off the A/C and unplug before maintenance or repair.

CLEANING

• It is recommended to discharge the water inside the drain hole every month to keep the drain hole dry and clean, otherwise it may lead to mechanical failure.
• Unplug before cleaning.
  Wipe with soft semi-dry cloth. Don’t use chemical reagent, such as benzene,
  alcohol and gasoline etc, otherwise surface of the A/C and even the whole A/C
  will be damaged.
  Prevent water from spattering in the A/C.

FILTER SCREEN

• Wash the filter screen once every two weeks. If it is blocked by dust, efficiency of the A/C will be reduced.
• Take out the air inlet grille and pull out the filter screen at both sides according to the direction shown in the following figures.
• Put the filter screen into the warm water (about 40℃) added with neutral detergent, dry it at a shady place after cleaning.

SEASONAL CLEANING
If the A/C will not be used for a long time:

• Pull out the water wedge to drain.
• Run the A/C in fan mode for 2 hours till its inside is dry.
• Turn off the A/C and unplug.
• Wash the filter screen and reassemble it.
• Dismantle the exhaust duct and keep it properly.
• Cover the A/C with a plastic bag and place it at a dry place.
