FUNCTION BUTTONS
POWER CONTROL
The Power Control turns the unit on and off. The air vent will automatically open when the unit is turned ON and automatically close when unit is turned OFF.
FILTER RESET
When the operation has reached 250 hours, the Filter Reset light will illuminate.
Switch the Portable Air Conditioner OFF and carefully remove filters from the unit and clean. Replace filters and press the Filter Reset button, the Filter Reset light will turn off and the operation time will be cleared.
FAN SPEED CONTROL
4 settings: High, Medium, Low and Auto.
Note: Auto fan speed can be selected in cooling mode only.
TEMPERATURE CONTROL
- The default display is setting temperature.
- In cooling mode, when ∧ or ∨ button is pressed, the set temperature is displayed and may be adjusted.
Note: By pressing both ∧ or ∨ buttons at the same time, the display will toggle between Celsius (°C) and Fahrenheit (°F).
MODE CONTROL
Settings: Air Conditioning, Dehumidifying, Fan, Auto.
The corresponding indicator light will illuminate to indicate the current mode setting.
- Air Conditioning Mode (COOL)
Adjust fan speed and air temperature to suit your desired comfort level.
Temperature setting range is 16°C - 32°C (60°F - 90°F).
Ambient temperature range is 16°C - 35°C (60°F - 95°F).
- Dehumidifying Mode (DRY)
Fan speed is preset to Low.
Note: If the unit will be used mainly as a dehumidifier, do not connect the hose. Continuous drainage is then necessary (refer to Continuous Draining for Dehumidifier Mode).
IMPORTANT: The Dehumidifier mode is used to support moisture reduction but should not be expected to dehumidify to the same degree as a standard dehumidifier-only appliance. The built-in dehumidifier automatically adjusts dehumidification based on ambient room temperatures. It is not possible to adjust to a desired humidity percentage. The front display only shows the current and desired temperatures. It does not show humidity levels.
- Fan Mode
For air circulation without air conditioner cooling.
Note: Auto fan speed cannot be selected in fan mode.
- Auto Mode
Press the ∧ or ∨ button to select the temperature you want.
In this mode, the unit will automatically select cooling or fan only depends on the set temperature and the room temperature. The Portable Air Conditioner will control room temperature automatically around the set temperature.
Note: Fan speed can't be adjusted in auto mode.
TIMER CONTROL
The Timer is adjustable between 1 - 24 hours.
AUTO TURN OFF:
While unit is running, press the Timer button and the display will flash. While the display is flashing, press the ∧ or ∨ button to select the number of hours you want the unit to turn OFF automatically
AUTO TURN ON:
When unit is in a standby mode (plugged in with power light will on for seconds when plugged then turn off), press the Timer button and the display will flash. While the display is flashing, press the ∧ or ∨ button to select the number of hours until you want the unit to turn ON automatically.
SLEEP MODE
When the Sleep Mode is activated in Air Conditioning mode, the set temperature will increase by 1°C or 1°F after the first hour of cooling and will increase a further 1°C or 1°F after the second hour of cooling. The unit will maintain this temperature for 5 hours. The set temperature will then reduce by 1°C or 1°F on the seventh hour and reduce a further 1°C or 1°F on the tenth hour. Sleep mode will then deactivate automatically.
Note: The Sleep Mode can be deactivated during cooling mode by pressing any button at any time.
WATER FULL ALARM
Condensation may accumulate in the unit.
If the internal tank is full, error code "P1" will be displayed and an alarm will beep for 3 seconds. The unit will not operate until the water has been drained from the lower drain plug (refer to Water Condensation Drainage).
After switching the Portable Air Conditioner off, the compressor will not start immediately. You must wait about 4 minutes before it switches back on again.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Appliance Maintenance:
- Turn off the appliance before disconnecting the power supply.
- Only clean the appliance with a soft dry cloth.
Dust Filter Maintenance:
The dust filter is to be cleaned every two weeks to maintain air cooling efficiency. Please follow the below instructions for cleaning the dust filters:
|
WARNING: DO NOT power or operate the Portable Air Conditioner when cleaning or when the Dust Filter is removed from the unit, or if there is a loose-fitting Dust Filter. DO NOT attempt to handle or touch any of the parts or wiring inside the Rear Grill after the Dust Filter has been removed from the unit. Doing so can cause serious injury or electrical shock.
End of Season Storage and Maintenance:
If the appliance will not be used for a long time, follow these steps:
1.Be sure to drain the left-over water condensation. Remove the lower drain plug and use a drain pan to collect the water (make sure to replace the deain plug cap when finished)
2. To dry excess moisture, run the unit in Fan only mode for 30 minutes before storing.
3. Turn off and unplug the Portable Air Conditioner from the power supply.
4. Remove the dust filter and clean with water. Dry the dust filter and then reinstall.
5. Disconnecting the Window Installation Kit:
- Remove the Hose from the unit by rotating anti-clockwise then pulling away.
- Remove the Foam Seal, Window Bracket, Window Bracket Panel Adapter and Hose Connector.
- It is recommended to store the Window Kit parts in a bag together with the Remote Control, Drain Tube and placing them together with the Portable Air Conditioner unit.
- If needed, you can clean the Window Kit with a damp cloth and water before storing. Make sure all parts of the Window Kit are dry before storage
6. Cover the Portable Air Conditioner with a cloth/ plastic bag before storage, to protect from dust and scratches collecting on the surface of the unit
7. It is recommended to coil the power cord before storing to ensure the cord is protected from bents and creases.
8. Store the Portable Air Conditioner in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight.
WATER CONDENSATION DRAINAGE
When there is excess water condensation inside the unit, the Portable Air Conditioner stops running and shows an error code "P1" with an alarm. This indicates that the water condensation needs to be drained using the following procedures:
Manual Draining in Cooling, Dehumidifying and Auto Modes
Water may need to be drained in high humidity areas.
|
Continuous Draining in Dehumidifier Mode
While using the unit in dehumidifier mode, continuous drainage is recommended.
|
IMPORTANT: It is NOT recommended to connect the drain hose for continuous drainage while the unit is switched ON in air conditioning cooling mode. Doing so can reduce the cooling efficiency of the Portable Air Conditioner. Only drain the water condensation when the unit is switched off. Continuous drainage is only suitable when the unit is set up in Dehumidifier mode.
