This air conditioner is for indoor use only.

Transport the air conditioner in an upright position only, or leave it in an upright position for at least 2 hours before use.

Use only in the upright position on a flat level surface and at least 30 cm from any objects.

Do not place objects on the air conditioner, or through the ventilating slots or restrict the air inlets & outlets.

Closely supervise any children and pets when the air conditioner is in use.

Do not store or operate the appliance near any flammable substances.

During operation, water will collect in the bottom tank of the air conditioner. Be careful when moving the unit to prevent water from spilling.

Ensure the appliance has been installed in accordance with national wiring regulations.

Caution! Before connecting the electrical power cord to a power outlet, check that the air conditioner voltage as shown on the rating label on the air conditioner is the same as your power supply. Ensure the power supply is correctly earthed and rated.

Plug the air conditioner directly into a properly installed power outlet. Never use an extension cord, double adaptor or multi-power outlet board to run this air conditioner.

Do not pull the air conditioner along by the power cord or place the power cord near a source of heat. Always unroll the power cord completely before use.

If the power supply cord is damaged it must be replaced by the manufacturer, a service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.

Switch off and unplug when not in use.

Do not use in humid environments such as bathrooms, laundries or other steamy or wet areas.

Do not touch or operate the air conditioner with wet or damp hands or when standing barefoot.

Place the air conditioner on a firm and flat surface. The minimum distance required from the operating air conditioner to any walls or objects is 30 cm.

Step 1: Fit the exhaust hose to the hose end and hose exhaust nozzle by turning the parts in the direction shown in the diagrams.

Step 2: Slide the hose end onto the exhaust outlet at the rear of the cooler.

Step 3: (Optional) Cut the foam seal to the length of your window and attach it to the window frame. This will help seal along the window kit.

Step 4: Open a window and fit the window kit. Extend the attachments as required and lock into place with the window kit screw provided. Ensure the outlet is not obstructed. The window kit can be installed horizontally or vertically, to suit your window type.

Step 5: Fit the Exhaust nozzle to the window kit, and lock into place. Keep the exhaust hose as short and straight as possible. This will maximise the cooling performance.

Note: Hot air and mist will be emitted outside through the exhaust hose. It is critical to the performance of the unit that all of the exhaust air is removed from the space being cooled.

Don’t use extension pieces for the exhaust hose as this will reduce performance and possibly result in damage to the air conditioner.

For continuous draining of water during DRY mode operation:

Step 1: Remove the drain outlet plug at the rear of the air conditioner.

Step 2: Connect the drain hose to the drain outlet. Push on firmly to secure into place.

Step 3: Run the free end of the pipe to a drain. Make sure that the drain hose does not rise above the drain outlet as the water will not flow otherwise.

The air outlet vanes can be set to the desired position manually. Keep the vanes fully open during operation.

Remove the battery cover and insert new batteries (AAA), making sure the + and – match the compartment markings.

Press and hold the CLOCK button for 3 seconds. The time display on the remote will begin to flash. Press or hold the UP and DOWN buttons to adjust the clock time. Wait for 5 seconds for the time display to stop flashing. The clock time is now set.

Step 1: Ensure the cooler is plugged in at the wall power outlet and is switched on.

Step 2: Press the POWER button on the control panel or remote control.

Step 3: Press the MODE button on the control panel or the remote control to select the desired operating mode.

The available modes are:

• Cool mode – refrigerated cooling

• Dry mode – for extracting moisture from the air.

• Fan mode – fan only operation.

• Auto mode – automatically selects either cool or fan modes based on current room conditions.

Press the UP and DOWN buttons on the remote control to select the desired room temperature in 1°C increments. The set temperature range is 17°C – 30°C. Cooling will only occur if the set temperature is less than the ambient room temperature.

Note! Do not set the cooling temperature too low as this will consume more power. 24°C is the recommended set temperature.

Press the FAN button on the control panel or the remote control to adjust the fan speeds.

Note! In cooling mode the fan will continue to operate even if the compressor has turned off.

Press the SLEEP button to activate sleep mode. During sleep mode the set temperature will increase 1°C every 30 minutes for 1 hour, after which the new temperature will be maintained for 7 hours. The cooler will then revert to its original setting.

Sleep mode can only be used in Cool mode and will be cancelled if the mode is changed, the cooler goes into stand-by or the water full alert occurs.

Step 7: Press the TIMER button to cycle between timer on and timer off, with the indicator lights showing the mode selected. Use the UP and DOWN buttons to set the time to shut down or start up. Timer range is 0 – 24 hours. After 3 seconds the display will revert to showing the set temperature. The timer has been set.

To cancel the timer, set the timer to 00 using the control panel or remote control or turn the air conditioner on or off.

During cooling mode, water will collect in the air conditioner’s tank. This water is re-circulated, with some being exhausted out with the hot air, but will slowly fill up the tank. This occurs more quickly in humid conditions. If the tank should fill, the air conditioner will shut down and display the water full error code. The cooler cannot be restarted until the water tank is drained.

Always disconnect the air conditioner from the electricity mains before cleaning. Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe the body clean. Never use aggressive chemicals, spirits, detergents, chemically treated cloths, or other cleansing solutions. These substances could possibly damage the cabinet.

1. Remove the filters from the top and bottom of the air conditioner.

2. Use a vacuum cleaner or tap the filter lightly to remove loose dust and dirt and then rinse under running water (no hotter than 40°C).

3. Dry thoroughly before replacing.

4. Take care to replace the filter back into the slot in the cooler.

Note! Never operate the air conditioner without the filter.

Place the unplugged air conditioner over a drain point. Unscrew the cap and remove the drain plug at the bottom rear of the air conditioner. Water will flow out as soon as the plug is removed. Allow the tank to completely drain before replacing the drain plug and cap.

1. Drain any water from the unit.

2. Operate the unit in fan only mode for a few hours, to thoroughly dry the inside.

3. Clean or change the filter.

4. Unplug and carefully store the power cord and plug end.

5. Replace in the original carton or cover for storage.
