there could be a danger of fire or explosion should the refrigerant come into contact with
electric heaters, stoves, or other ignition sources.
• Only store and use the unit whilst upright; do not lay it down or tip it.
• Do not place the unit near ovens or other heat sources. This may be dangerous, but it will
also cause the unit to work harder and use more energy.
• Do not place the unit in direct sunlight; this can affect its appearance, make it work
harder, and reduce its energy efficiency.
• Refrigerant gas may be odourless.
• Do not use the product and contact the retailer for advice if damage has occurred to the
unit, which may have compromised the refrigerant system.
• Any repairs or maintenance must only be done on the unit by a suitably qualified
engineer. Before opening and servicing the unit, the authorised engineer must possess a
copy of the manufacturer’s service manual and follow its safety information to ensure all
hazards are minimised.
• The refrigerant system should not be perforated or punctured.
• At the end of the unit’s lifetime, always dispose in line with local regulations.
• Ensure all storage conditions in the manual are followed.
• WARNING: Do not use means to accelerate the defrosting process or to clean the unit.
ENERGY SAVING AND UNIT SAFETY PROTECTION TIPS
6
• Do not cover or restrict the airflow from the outlet or inlet grills.
• For maximum performance the minimum distance from a wall or objects should be
50cm.
• Keep the filters clean. Under normal conditions, filters should only need cleaning once
every three weeks (approximately). Since the filters remove airborne particles, more
frequent cleaning may be necessary, depending on the air quality.
• For the initial start-up, set the fan speed to maximum and the thermostat to 5 degrees
lower than the current temperature. After, set the fan switch to low and set the
thermostat to your desired setting.
• To protect the unit, we recommend not using the cooling function when the ambient
temperature exceeds 35
o
C. The unit's performance may be affected at lower
temperatures than this. If a very hot day is predicted, running the unit overnight in the
desired room is recommended.
WARNING: This appliance contains flammable refrigerant. If this
leaks and comes into contact with an external ignition source,
there is a fire risk.
CAUTION: The operation manual should be read thoroughly.
CAUTION: Any service personnel working on the unit should read
the service manual prior.
CAUTION: Information on operation and servicing is in the
manual.

INSTALLATION
COLD AIR OUTLETS
1. Line up the dimple on the Elbow with the
notch on the Hose connector on the top of
the air conditioner.
2. Rotate anticlockwise until a click can be
heard, indicating the elbow has locked into
place.
3. Insert the Cold Air Hose into the Elbow,
again lining up the dimple with the notch in
the Elbow.
4. Rotate the pipe anticlockwise to fix it in
place.
5. The pipe can then be extended and pointed
in the desired direction.
HOT AIR OUTLET
1. Push the Hot air pipe onto the Hot air outlet on the top of the
appliance.
2. Extend the pipe and route it outside.
NOTES:
• The best form of installation is through a wall duct. Properly
venting, you expel hot air from your room while efficiently
cooling it.
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
If hoses are extended above the permitted length, the unit may
malfunction, which can invalidate the warranty. The outlet vent
must be well-ventilated and not obstructed, as this will cause
the unit to overheat. Keep all the hoses as straight and short as
possible and avoid bending the air hose by more than 45
degrees to maintain the unit's performance. Excessive bends in
the hose may prevent the unit from expelling hot air, leading to
internal damage and invalidating the warranty. Ensure that
sufficient space is left in from the end of the vent pipes (30cm –
Cold air, 90cm Hot air)

OPERATION
Turn the control switch to select your desired fan speed between Low and High.
Turn the control switch back to the Off position when you have finished.
The unit can also be used as a dehumidifier without the hot air hose. We advise setting it up with continuous
drainage when using it as a dehumidifier.
MULTI PROTECTIVE FUNCTIONS
FROST PROTECTION
If the exhaust temperature is too low, the machine will automatically stop operating until it rises.
OVERFLOW PROTECTION
When the water in the internal water tank exceeds the warning level, the machine stops operating, and the full
indicator will illuminate the tank. To resume operation, empty the internal water tank. After emptying the
water, the machine will automatically return to its original state.
AUTO-DEFROST
The machine has an automatic defrosting function. If the temperature of the internal coils drops too low during
operation, the unit will enter auto defrost, and the heating symbol will flash on the control panel.
AUTOMATIC THERMAL PROTECTION
The machine has automatic thermal protection to protect its service life. If the temperature within the unit is
outside of the specified range, the compressor and the lower motor will stop operating. After the machine's
temperature recovers, the appliance will automatically return to normal operation.
COMPRESSOR PROTECTION
There is a 3-minute delay start protection function to prevent damage to the compressor.
10
EMPTYING THE INTERNAL WATER TANK
MANUAL DRAINAGE:
When the internal water tank is full, the unit will stop working.
Shut off and unplug the unit. Do not move the appliance, as this may cause the water in the internal tank to
spill out. Remove the water tank from the base of the unit and empty it into a sink or drain. Replace the water
tank in the unit before plugging it back in and restarting the operation.
CONTINUOUS DRAINAGE:
Remove the water tank from the unit and the rubber cap from the end of the drainage spout. Connect the
drainage pipe to the spout. Feed the drainage pipe through the hole in the side of the unit from the inside
before sliding the water tank back into place. The drain is gravity-fed, so it can be routed downwards to a
suitable drain. Alternatively, the pipe can be attached to an external uplift pump (not supplied) to pump the
water uphill to a suitable drainage point.
NOTE: This model has a self-evaporative function, which reduces the need to empty the water tank. If the unit
is vented correctly, most water is reused to cool the condenser coils, and any excess is evaporated. Please do
not use continuous drainage if you intend to use the self-evaporating facility.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
PLEASE TURN OFF THE UNIT AND UNPLUG FROM THE MAINS BEFORE CLEANING OR PERFORMING ANY
MAINTENANCE
CLEAN THE SURFACE
Clean the machine's surface with a wet, soft cloth. Do not use chemicals such as benzene, alcohol, gasoline, etc.;
otherwise, this may damage the surface or the internal workings of the machine.
AIR FILTER CLEANING
If the filter screen is clogged with dust, the air conditioner's effectiveness is reduced. The filter screen should be cleaned
once every two weeks or as often as necessary in your environment.
END-OF-SEASON MAINTENANCE
1. Empty the internal water tank.
2. Turn off the unit and pull out the plug.
3. Leave for 24 hours to dry out.
4. Empty the water tank again, as a small amount of water may have drained.
5. Coil the wire, bind it together, and put it into the accessories space.
6. Separate the vent pipes and store them safely.
7. Cover the unit and keep it in a dry place.
