AmeriCool by Weltem Portable Air Condioners feature spot cooling for large
areas where cooling of the enre area is not praccal. A dedicated spot cooling
thermostat controls the unit in this applicaon. These air condioners can also
be used in smaller areas for room cooling.
A control panel provides ease of use and contains a self-diagnosc funcon and
display, showing operang modes, room and set temperatures, and faults. If an
abnormal operaon occurs, a visual display of the fault is shown. Caster wheels
are included for easy portability. Suitable applicaons include: a factory or work
place, industrial kitchen, computer room, emergency cooling, outdoor event, etc.
Aer unpacking the unit, carefully inspect unit for any damage that may
have occurred during transit. Check for any loose, missing, or damaged parts.

3. If the lter is heavily covered with dust and dirt, warm water and mild soap or
neutral detergent may be used to wash the lter. Do not use any other chemi
-
cals to clean the lter, as they will likely damage the lter.
4. Dry the lter in a shaded area before replacing it. Do not operate the unit
without the lter installed and the lter guard in the closed posion.
5. Replace the clean lter and close the lter guard.
6. To clean the condenser lter, li up on the rear or side lter from the middle
bar slightly and then angle the lter outwards from the boom and remove.
7. Use the same cleaning procedure as in steps 3-5 above.
8. To replace the condenser lter, place the top of the lter in the guide and slide
the lter up unl the boom of the lter clears the frame. Then push the bot
-
tom of the lter into the guide and let the lter gently fall inside the guide.
NOTE: For eecve cooling, clean the lter at least every 2 weeks.
DO NOT operate without the lter installed
DO NOT operate the unit with a damaged cord or
plug, aer the unit malfuncons, or if the unit has

The alarm light is acvated if abnormal operaon occurs, and a code is
displayed on the control panel. The compressor and condenser fan motor
will stop operang. The evaporator fan will connue to run for 3 minutes.
If the fault is reced within 3 minutes, the unit will resume operaon. If
the fault persists for more than 3 minutes, the evaporator fan also stops.
The fault must be reced before the unit can resume normal operaon.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Spring Replacement
