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 hose sends heat outside. The Portable 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 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.
Important:
Before installing the unit, place it UPRIGHT for 1 hour before use to allow the refrigerant to stabilize.
Air outlet automatically opens when the unit is turned on, and automatically closes when the unit is turned off. 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.

Installation Steps:

1. Window bracket panel adapter, hose and hose connector are pre-assembled inside the package.

2. Adjust the window bracket as per the width or height of your window and insert the plastic pin to fix at the desired position. There is a hole where the hose will be inserted later. Make sure this hole is not blocked.
   Note: After setting the window bracket to the size of your window, please remove it from the window and follow the instructions below.

3. Connect the hose to the rear exhaust outlet on the back of the unit. Slide-in the hose connector then rotate clockwise until it is locked in place.

4. Connect the window bracket to the window bracket panel adapter. Ensure that all connections are tight and installed properly.

5. Cut the Foam Seal (adhesive) to the proper length and attach them to the window sash and frame.

6. Connect the window bracket to the window.

7. Cut the Foam Seal (non-adhesive) to the window length. Stuff the Foam Seal (non-adhesive) between the inner window sash and the outer window glass to prevent air and insects from getting into the room.

8. The Portable Air Conditioner is now ready to use.

IMPORTANT:
Do not replace or lengthen the hose as this could cause the unit to malfunction.
WARNING: Any warranties included with this product will be voided if an extra extension hose is added to the originally provided installation kit or if the installation is performed differently than the manufacturer’s instructions, without proper consultation. Please contact Customer Support for help with installation procedures if needed.

• The supplied hose has a diameter of 5.9″ (15 cm) and can be extended from 10.6″ to 59″ (27 cm to 150 cm).

Manual Draining in Cooling, Dehumidifying and Auto Modes

Water may need to be drained in high humidity areas.

1. Unplug the unit from power source.

2. Place a drain pan under the lower rubber drain plug.
   See diagram.

3. Remove the drain plug cap.

4. Water will drain out and collect in the drain pan.

5. After the water is drained, replace the drain plug cap.

6. You can now turn on the unit.

Continuous Draining in Dehumidifier Mode

While using the unit in dehumidifier mode, continuous drainage is recommended.

1. Unplug the unit from power source.

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

3. Connect the drain tube (included) to the upper drain plug. See diagram.

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

5. Replace the drain plug cap.

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.

FAQs

Is there a sliding glass door kit that will fit this?

there is a sliding metal door kit that comes with the unit. As for glass, I don’t know of any sliding glass door that is
specifically made for this unit.

What is the amperage and wattage rating of the unit? Useful information to determine the power supply requirements!

115V 60 Hz, 11 amps. Should be 1,265 watts.

Yes.

Is this fully self-evaporative AC?

It includes a drainage hose for high-humidity environments

Can I still use my sliding window if I have the hose attached to my window frame?

Yes, the window still slides when the hose adapter is installed. The hose adapter does not attach to the sliding window, it just rests against the adapter

How do I get the A/C to stop shutting itself off when it thinks it’s reached temperature?

Actually my Honeywell only shuts itself off when it really does reach the set temperature…..if yours is not responding correctly to the temp. you set…..I would contact Honeywell

Yes. Otherwise the condensation will build up.

What type of filter does this take?

They are built in screens. One on the back top part and one on the lower.
