GENERAL WARNINGS & CAUTIONS
• All electrical work must be performed by qualified electrical personnel. Repair
to electrical components by non-certified technicians may result in personal
injury and/or damage to this unit. All electrical components replaced must be
genuine MovinCool parts, purchased from an authorized dealer.
• The power source for this unit should be a dedicated single outlet circuit with
UL recognized short-circuit and ground fault protective breaker.
• Because of potential safety hazards under a certain condition, we strongly
recommend against the use of an extension cord.
However, if you still elect to use an extension cord, it is absolutely necessary
that it is a UL listed, 3-wire grounding type appliance extension cord, having a
3-blade and a 3-slot receptacle that plugs into the appliance.
The marked rating of the extension cord should be 120 V, 20 A or equivalent.
• This unit is equipped with a 10 feet (3 m) UL recognized LCDI power cord.
If replacement, fixed location (hard wired) or power cord lengthening
(extension cord) is requried, contact your dealer or a qualified electrician for
approved methods.
• Never fold or place heavy objets on the power cord.
This could result in damage to the power cord causing electrical shock or fire.
• Turn this unit off and unplug the power cord when the power cord is damaged.
• Do not place water or any other liquid on this unit. This can cause damage to
the unit and increase the risk of electrical shock.
• Do not use water to clean inside this unit. Exposure to water can destroy the
insulation and electrical components, leading to electric shock.
• Interior cleaning of this unit must be performed by authorized personnel only.
Consult your MovinCool dealer.
• Do not sit or stand on this unit.

OPERATION
Operation Modes
The Climate Pro 18 operates in three modes, COOL, HEAT, and FAN ONLY.
The unit is in standby mode if it is not operating in these modes.
• Standby Mode
When the unit is connected to power, the LED illuminates in orange color,
and the LCD displays date, time and the previous mode setting condition
with blue backlight that stays on for 60 seconds, then turns off. The backlight
turns on again if any button is pressed.
• Cool Mode
When the unit is in COOL mode operation, the compressor operates and cool
air is circulated. Once the room temperature reaches the set point temperature,
the unit operates in FAN ONLY mode. When switched from HEAT to COOL
mode operation, the unit initially operates in FAN ONLY mode.
Set point temperature range: 65 °F ~ 90 °F (18 °C ~ 32 °C)
• Heat Mode
When the unit is in HEAT mode operation, the compressor operates and hot air
is circulated. Once the room temperature reaches the set point temperature, the
unit stops. When switched from COOL to HEAT mode operation, the unit stops
until the compressor operates.
Set point temperature range: 55 °F ~ 80 °F (13 °C ~ 27 °C)
Note:
• When FAN mode is set to AUTO, the fan operates within 1 minute after the
compressor operates.
• When the ambient temperature falls outside the operating condition range, the
unit automatically stops and displays “OUTSIDE OPERATING RANGE” on
the control panel.
• When the ambient temperature is low, the unit automatically stops and starts
defrosting operation for maximum 15 minutes (“DEFROST” is displayed on
the control panel). The unit returns to heating operation after defrosting
operation is completed.
• Temperature Control
The room temperature thermistor monitors the inlet air temperature versus set
point temperature and automatically switches ON and OFF during cooling or
heating operation.
• Fan Mode Control
The fan mode control determines whether the fan continues to operate or stop
when the compressor stops during COOL or HEAT mode. The unit has been
preset at the factory for continuous fan operation in COOL and for fan AUTO
operation in HEAT mode. Fan mode can be changed on the control panel under
Menu mode.
• Temperature Scale Display
The unit has been preset at the factory to display the temperature in °F. The
temperature scale can be changed from °F to °C on the control panel under
Menu mode.

OPERATION (cont.)
Condensate Pump Kit (Optional Accessory)
The condensate pump kit is available to allow continuous unit operation and
eliminate the need for emptying the drain tank.
When the water collects to level A in the
pump reservoir, the condensate pump
automatically dischages the water.
Note: The compressor does not operate while the condensate pump is
discharging the water out from the reservoir.
When the water level drops below level B, the condensate pump stops, and the
compressor restarts.
Note:
• If for any reason the water level exceeds that of level A in the pump reservoir,
an overflow drain switch stops the unit operation, and the LCD displays “AS”.
• If the fan mode is set to AUTO, the entire unit (including fan operation) turns off
either due to the overflow drain switch or while the condensate pump is
discharging the water.
