THANK YOU

Congratulations on your purchase of this Honeywell Portable Air Conditioner.

Regarding the information pertaining to the installation, handling, servicing, cleaning and disposal of the appliance, please refer to the below paragraph of the manual.

USER TIPS

Portable Air Conditioners are ideal for spot cooling. The compressor, condenser and evaporator are housed in a compact unit. The air is dehumidified and cooled while a flexible exhaust Hose sends heat outside. The air conditioner includes a window venting kit.

No permanent installation is needed. The unit is easy to move from room to room and offers a truly flexible air conditioning solution.

Auto Evaporation System – The unit automatically evaporates the condensate through the exhaust Hose. There is no need to empty the drainage tank except in humid conditions. Read and follow the instructions carefully.

To ensure optimal efficiency of the product, keep doors and windows closed when it is used as an air conditioner or dehumidifier. If the product is being used with the fan function only, an open window could improve air circulation.Cooling, Heating* and Dehumidifying OperationFan Operation

Important:
Before installing the unit, place it UPRIGHT for 1 hour before use to allow the refrigerant to stabilize. Manually adjust the air vent located at the top of the unit to adjust the direction of air flow.

• Follow installation instructions to set up the unit.
• Plug the unit into a properly grounded circuit. DO NOT plug into an extension cord.

USE AND OPERATION

CONTROL PANEL

1. Power Control / Standby Mode
2. Warning Light (when flashing)
3. Mode Control
4. Timer / Temperature Set Controls
5. Fan Speed Control
6. Timer Control

FUNCTION BUTTONS

POWER CONTROL
The Power Control turns the unit on and off. When the unit is plugged in, this button lights up indicating it is in a Standby Mode ready to be switched on anytime.

WARNING LIGHT
Condensation may accumulate in the unit.
If the internal tank becomes full, the Power Control light will flash and the unit will not operate until the unit has been drained (refer to Water Condensation Drainage).

After switching the air conditioner off, you must wait 3 minutes before switching it back on again.

MODE CONTROL
Settings: Air Conditioning, Heating*, Dehumidifying, Fan.
The corresponding indicator light will illuminate to indicate the current mode setting.

• Air Conditioning Mode ****
  Adjust fan speed and air temperature to suit your desired comfort level.
  Temperature setting range is 16°C – 32°C (61°F – 89°F).

*Applicable for models with Heating feature only.

EN | 7

• Dehumidifying Mode
  Air is dehumidified as it passes through the unit, without being in full cooling mode.
  If room temperature is higher than 25°C (77°F) fan speed can be adjusted; otherwise fan speed is preset to LOW.
  Note: If the unit will be used mainly as a dehumidifier, do not connect the exhaust Hoses.
  Continuous drainage is then necessary (refer to Continuous Draining for Dehumidifier Mode).

IMPORTANT: The Dehumidifier mode is used to support moisture reduction but should not be expected to dehumidify to the same degree as a standard dehumidifier-only appliance. The built-in dehumidifier automatically adjusts dehumidification based on ambient room temperatures. It is not possible to adjust to a desired humidity percentage. The front display only shows the current AND desired temperatures. It does not show humidity levels.

• Fan Mode
  For air circulation without air conditioner cooling.

• Heating Mode* 
  This unit uses Heat-Pump technology which reverses the air conditioning cooling cycle by transferring heat from the outside into the room – this is more energy efficient than traditional electric heaters that generate heat instead of transferring heat into the room. These properties make this heater ideal for use in autumn or spring when outdoor temperatures are not severely cold, or as supplemental heating in colder rooms of your home.

When heating mode is selected the indicator light will shine. Heating is activated only when the ambient temperature is below 25°C (77°F). In this mode, the desired temperature can be set between 16°C- 25°C (61°F – 77°F).
Note: The exhaust Hoses must vent outside the room when using heating mode.

IMPORTANT: The Heat pump draws moisture from the air which then condenses into the internal water tank. The unit will pause operation when the tank is full and will restart when the tank has been emptied. It is recommended to use the heating mode in a room with 50% humidity or lower. Avoid operating moisture-producing products or appliances such as a humidifier or a kettle when using the unit in heating mode.
See the “Draining Water Condensation in Heat Mode” section for more information on draining the water tank

WATER CONDENSATION DRAINAGE

When there is excess water condensation inside the unit, the air conditioner stops running and shows a warning light (the Power Control button flashes with a red light). This warning light indicates that the water condensation needs to be drained using the following procedures:

*Manual Draining in Cooling, Dehumidifying and Heating Modes**

Water may need to be drained in high humidity areas.Plastic Cap and Lower Drain Plug, Shallow Pan (Not included)

1. Unplug the unit from power source.
2. Place a shallow pan under the lower rubber drain plug. See diagram.
3. Remove the lower rubber drain plug.
4. Water will drain out and collect in the shallow pan.
5. After the water is drained, replace the lower rubber drain plug firmly.
6. You can now turn on the unit.

If you find that there is a high volume of condensation and a shallow pan is not enough for your use, you can use a large pan to drain. Follow the below instructions carefully:Wooden Board Height: up to 1″, Plastic Cap and Lower Drain Plug

1. Find a flat, stable board that is up to 1″ thick. The base could be a wooden board purchased from your local hardware store, with a minimum base dimension of 20″ (length) x 17″ (width) x 1″ (thick).
2. The base should be large and sturdy enough to fit the portable air conditioner on top. The air conditioner must be stable and not rock or move when positioned on this base and not easy to topple over.
3. Drain the water from the lower drain plug as needed, into a larger pan or through a drain tube. If using a drain tube, you can purchase vinyl tubing which has an outside diameter of 5/8″ and an inside diameter of ½”.
   Remember the drain tube must be positioned lower than the drain plug so the water condensation does not flow backwards back into the air conditioner.

WARNING: For safety reasons, the Portable Air Conditioner must NOT be positioned on a base that is higher than 1″ from the floor. This is only recommended if you have a stable, flat base to position the portable air conditioner on safely.

*Applicable for models with Heating feature only.

Continuous Draining for Dehumidifier Mode

While using the unit in dehumidifier mode, continuous drainage is recommended.Upper Rubber Drain Plug, Drain Tube

1. Unplug the unit from power source.

2. Remove the upper rubber drain plug.
   Some residual water may spill so please have a pan to collect the water. See diagram.

3. Connect the drain connector to a ¾” Hose or standard garden Hose (not included).

4. The water can be continuously drained through the drain tube into a floor drain or bucket.

5. Replace the drain plug.

6. You can now turn on the unit

IMPORTANT: It is NOT recommended to connect the drain Hose for continuous drainage while the unit is switched ON in air conditioning cooling mode. Doing so can reduce the cooling efficiency of the Portable Air Conditioner. Only drain the water condensation when the unit is switched off. Continuous drainage is only suitable when the unit is set up in Dehumidifier mode.

IMPORTANT: The water cannot be drained using the continuous drain option in heating* mode. In Heating mode, the internal water tank collects condensation faster and may require more frequent emptying of the tank in more humid rooms. It is recommended to use the heating mode in a room with 50 % humidity or lower. Avoid operating moisture-creating products or appliances such as a humidifier or a kettle when using the unit in heating mode.
