• Never install the unit where it could be subject to:
  • Heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves or other products that produce heat.
  • Direct sunlight
  • Mechanical vibration or shock
  • Excessive dust
  • Lack of ventilation, such as a cabinet or bookcase
  • Uneven surface

WARNING

• Install the unit in rooms which exceed 8 m².
• Do not install the unit in a place where inflammable gas may leak.

ATTACH THE EXHAUST HOSE
The air conditioner requires being vented outside so that the exhaust air can escape the room which coming from the appliance contains waste heat and moisture.
Do not replace or extend exhaust hose which will result in decreased efficiency, even worse shut down the unit due to low backpressure.

Step 1: Connect the hose connector to one end of the exhaust hose.

Step 2: Connect the windows kit adapter to the other end of the exhaust hose.

Step 3: Extend the adjustable window kit the length of your window. Connect the exhaust hose to the window kit.

Step 4: Adjusting the length of the flexible exhaust hose and avoid bends in the hose. Then place AC near an electrical outlet.

TIMER SETTING (1HOUR-24HOURS)

The timer has two ways of operation:

OVERLOAD PROTECTION
In the event of a power loss, to protect the compressor there is a 3-minute delay until the compressor restarting.

DRAINAGE

SELF- EVAPORATING SYSTEM
The self-evaporating system uses the collected water to cool the condenser coils for better, more efficient performance. There is no need to empty the drainage tank in cooling mode, except in high humidity conditions. In drying mode, the drainage tank needs to be emptied. The condensed water evaporates at the condenser and disappears through the exhaust hose.

For continuous operation or unattended operating in drying mode, please connect the attached drain hose to the unit. Condensed water can automatically run into a bucket or drain.

• Switch off the unit before operating.

• Remove the plug of the water outlet opening and keep it in safe area.

• Securely and properly connect the drain hose. Make sure it is not kinked and clear of obstruction.

• Place the outlet of hose over a drain or bucket and ensure that water can freely flow out of the unit.

• Do not submerge the end of hose into water; other-wise it can cause “Air Lock” in the hose.

TO AVOID WATER SPILLAGE

• As the negative pressure of condensate drain pan is large, tilt the drain hose downward toward the floor. It is appropriate that the degree of inclination should exceed 20 degrees.
• Straighten the hose to avoid a trapping water in the hose.

DISASSEMBLY AND CLEANING

CLEANING THE AIR FILTER (EVERY TWO WEEKS)
Dust collects on the filter and restricts the airflow. The restricted airflow reduces the efficiency of the system and if it becomes blocked it can cause damage to the unit.

The air filter requires regular cleaning. The air filter is removable for easy cleaning. Do not operate the unit without an air filter, or the evaporator may be contaminated.

1. Press POWER button to switch off the unit and unplug the power cord.
2. Remove the filter mesh from the unit.
3. Use a vacuum cleaner to vacuum dust from the filter.
4. Turn the filter over and rinse the air filter under running water. Let the water run through the filter in the opposite direction of air flow. Set aside and allow the filter to air dry completely before reinstalling.
