Filling the water tank

Before use, follow the procedure explained below to fill the water tank with clean, cold water up to the ‘MAX’ level indicated.

Important:

• Do not use water with any chemical additives added. The water must be cold or lukewarm, do not use hot water above 40°C.
• Make sure the cooler is switched off before adding water to the tank.
• When adding water from the superior water tank, please pay attention to check the water level of the inferior water tank, as the water filled from top water tank will flow to the bottom water tank.
• Do not fill water above the ‘MAX’ line on the front of the water tank.

Superior water tank:

1. Open the top cover water tank.
2. Fill in clean, cold water into the water tank.
3. The water will flow directly to the bottom water tank.
4. Check the inferior water tank and make sure the water is not below or above the minimum and maximum levels.
5. Check the below picture for minimum and maximum water level.

Note : It is important to check the inferior water tank level while filling in the water from the superior water tank. Make sure it is above or below the levels indicated.

Inferior water tank:

1. Water can also be filled directly into the inferior water tank.
2. Slide out the water tank cover. The water tank cannot be removed completely.
3. Fill in clean, cold water into the water tank, taking care not to overfill above the ‘MAX’ line.
4. Carefully replace the water tank in its position, ensuring that the water cover is closed.
5. Make sure to close the cover after replacing the Water Tank, or else the unit will not work.

Note : It is normal for the air cooler to have a slight odour or for the water stored in the water tank to have a slight discoloration during
first use.

USING THE ICE BOXES

Two ice boxes have been included for extra cooling effect, if desired.

To use the ice boxes, simply place the Ice Boxes in your freezer for a few hours before placing them in the water tank.

Operating the unit

Warning:

• Make sure that the castor wheels are well installed before switching on.
• Once water is filled, take extra care to ensure that you don’t tilt the unit.
• Push the unit gently if you wish to move it to a new position.
• Before turning on the cooler, please ensure the swing and cooling buttons are turned off.

1. Keep the unit on a flat, stable ground without any obstacles near it.
2. Connect the power plug to a suitable electrical outlet with the same specifications as mentioned in the unit’s rating label (see Technical Specifications for details).
3. You may now use the control panel buttons to operate the cooler.

Functions

The new evaporative air cooler SY-CL420 integrates better cooling effect as it pumps the water and makes it flow from the inferior water tank to the top water tank, hence creating a better cooling effect. It is recommended to place the 2 ice boxes on the superior water tank so when the water runs from down to up and flows back it can generate colder air.

1. Cooling
   This evaporative air cooler is built to maximize energy efficiency.
   Warm air is drawn into the cooler through a dust and odor-reducing filter which enters the honeycomb cooling filter. Water is then pumped from the tank, pours over the honeycomb filter. As the warm air passes through the filter, the water absorbs the heat naturally, cooling and humidifying the air. A fan propels the cooled air out into the room. This no-compressor system cools naturally and efficiently.
   The recommended maximum relative humidity level is 60% or less, which allows a noticeable temperature decrease. The temperature decrease will be greater in drier climates because higher evaporation occurs when the humidity is low. The evaporative air cooler should not be used in closed spaces. The room should have doors and windows opened to allow free air flow. The evaporative air cooler works best when placed near an open window, so that outside air is drawn into the evaporative air cooler, the air circulates in the room and then exits via the door. 
   

2. Humidifier
   The evaporative air cooler can also be used to humidify dry air during cool weather. To use the humidification function, the
   windows and doors should be closed to allow the humidified air to accumulate.

3. Air purifier
   The filter removes tiny dust particles and cigarette smoke and constantly filters the air to provide a cleaner and healthier environment.

4. Oscillation (Swing)
   The louvers automatically swing from left to right and back and the vertical wind direction can be set manually.

5. Speed settings
   Speed between three fan speeds of 8.8m/s, 7.8m/s and 6.8m/s

6. Energy saving
   This product uses water as its media and physical ways to cool down the temperature. The water tank capacity lasts a long time and the power consumption is only 65W (only 5% compared to an air-conditioner)

7. Cleaning
   The water tank can be easily pulled out and cleaned with a damp cloth.
   

Cleaning and maintenance

Caution:

• Always switch off and unplug the unit before removing the filters or performing any cleaning.
• Do not use harsh detergents, chemical cleaners or solvents as they may damage the surface finish of the plastic components.

WATER TANK

• In the case you do not use the Cool function for a long period of time, remove the water from the water tank.
• Slide out the water tank until its limit.
• Remove the drainage screw to let all the water run out.
• Use mild soap and water to clean the Water Tank.
• Allow it to air dry or wipe dry using a soft cloth. Make sure the Water Tank is completely dry before replacing. This helps prevent any mould or mildew inside the Water Tank.
