HOW TO USE

Before Using the Air Conditioner

PREPARING FOR OPERATION

Refer to the Installation Instructions included in this manual before using the air conditioner.

Once the air conditioner has been properly assembled and installed:

1. Plug the power cord into its own dedicated properly grounded outlet. Do not plug other appliances into the same outlet. Doing so could overload the outlet and create a fire hazard.

2. Make sure the air conditioner and cord are positioned where they do not creat a tripping hazard and will receive adequate ventilation. Do not place the appliance near furniture or objects that could block the vent openings

3. Make sure that any items that could be blown over or damaged by the airflow from the fan are out of the airflow path

UNPACKING THE AIR CONDITIONER

Remove and store packing materials for reuse. Remove any shipping tape before using the air conditioner. If the tape leaves behind any adhesive, rub a small amount of liquid dish soap onto it and wipe with a damp cloth. Do NOT use sharp instruments, alcohol, thinners, or abrasive cleaners to remove adhesive.

They could damage the finish.

INSERTING BATTERIES IN THE REMOTE

Before using the remote, install the provided AAA batteries.

1. Press and slide to remove the battery cover on the back of the remote.

2. Insert two new alkaline AAA batteries into the battery compartment, being sure to note the proper polarity.

3. Reattach the battery cover.

NOTE :

• Use only alkaline batteries. Do not use rechargeable batteries.

CARE AND CLEANING

EMPTYING THE WATER COLLECTION TANK

This product has a self-evaporative system. The condensing water will be recycled to cool the condenser. This not only improves cooling efficiency, but also saves energy for you

Using the Upper Drain Port (Dry Mode Only)

• This can be used when you need dehumidification in high humidity.

• The upper drain port is not used in the Cool or Fan mode.

• Remove the drain plug when using the Dry (dehumidifying) mode.

• Install a drain hose (12mm [1/2˝] outer diameter) and place the open end of the hose over a drain or bucket or out the window.

Using the Lower Drain Port

When the internal water collection tank is full, the LED display will show FL and the air conditioner will turn off until the tank is emptied

• Unplug the air conditioner, disconnect the exhaust hose from the back, and move the air conditioner to a suitable drain location or outdoors. You may also place a pan under the drain that will hold up to 2 pints of water

• Remove the drain cap from the drain outlet.

• Once the water collection tank is drained, reinstall the drain cap, making sure it is on securely.

• Place the air conditioner in the desired location, reconnect the exhaust hose, and plug in the air conditioner.

CLEANING THE CASE

Wipe the case with a slightly damp cloth, then wipe dry with a dry cloth or towel.

• To prevent damage to the finish, do not use gasoline, benzene, thinner, etc., or any abrasive cleansers to clean the air conditioner; they may damage the finish.

• Never pour water onto or into the air conditioner. It could damage internal components and create a shock and fire hazard.

CLEANING THE AIR FILTER

The air filters should be cleaned every two weeks; depending on indoor air quality, more frequent cleaning may be needed. A dirty air filter will decrease airflow and reduce efficiency.

Do not operate the air conditioner without the air filters in place

1. Pull out each air filter by the handle.

2. Use a vacuum cleaner to clean the filters. If the filters are heavily soiled, they can be washed in warm water using a mild detergent.

Do not use harsh cleaners or very hot water.

Do not wash in a dishwasher.

3. Allow the filters to dry completely before reinstalling

4. Reinsert the filters.

STORING THE AIR CONDITIONER

If the air conditioner will not be used for an extended period of time:

1. To drain the water collection tank completely, leave the bottom drain cap off long enough to allow any residual water to drain out. Once the tank is completely drained and no more water flows out, reinstall the cap.

2. Remove and clean the filters, allow them to dry completely, then reinstall them.

3. Remove the batteries from the remote.

4. Store the air conditioner in a cool, dry location, away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and excessive dust.

Before using the air conditioner again:

1. Make sure the filters and drain cap are in place.

2. Check the power cord to make sure it is in good condition, with no cracks or damage.

3. Place new batteries in the remote.

4. Install the air conditioner as described in the Installation Instructions.
