Electrical Requirements

Recommended Grounding Method

• This portable air conditioner is equipped with a power supply cord with a three-prong grounding plug. The cord must be plugged into a mating, grounded three-prong outlet, grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances. If a mating outlet is not available, it is the customer's responsibility to have a properly grounded three-prong outlet installed by a qualified electrical installer.

Wiring requirement

• 115 V (103.5 min. to 126.5 max.)
• 15 A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker

Power Supply Cord

NOTE: Your air conditioner’s device may differ from the one shown. This room air conditioner is equipped with a power supply cord required by UL. This power supply cord contains state-of-the-art electronics that sense leakage current. If the cord is crushed, the electronics detect leakage current and power will be disconnected in a fraction of a second.

To test your power supply cord:

1. Plug power supply cord into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
2. Press RESET (on some devices, a green light will turn on).
3. Press TEST (listen for click; Reset button will trip, and on some devices, a green light will turn off).
4. Press and release RESET (listen for click; Reset button will latch, and on some devices, a green light will turn on). The power supply cord is ready for operation.

NOTE:

• The Reset button must be pushed in for proper operation.
• The power supply cord must be replaced if it fails to trip when the test button is pressed or fails to reset.
• Do not use the power supply cord as an off/on switch. The power supply cord is designed as a protective device.
• A damaged power supply cord must be replaced with a new power supply cord obtained from the product manufacturer and must not be repaired.
• The power supply cord contains no user serviceable parts. Opening the tamper-resistant case voids all warranty and performance claims.

Location Requirements

NOTE:

• The flexible exhaust hose allows placement of the air conditioner at least 20" from window or door.
• Confirm you are using the correct size air conditioner for the space to be cooled, per sizing recommendations, below:

NOTE: Match BTUs to room use and location:

• Shaded room reduce to next smaller size
• Sunny room increase to next larger size
• For kitchens, increase to next larger size

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Unpack the Air Conditioner

Remove packaging materials

• Remove and recycle packaging materials. Remove tape and glue residue from surfaces before turning on the air conditioner. Rub a small amount of liquid dish soap over the adhesive with your fingers. Wipe with warm water and dry.

Caution: Installation accessories are stored in the top of the carton, and are required for proper cooling performance. Please remove all accessories from packing materials before use

Install The Portable Air Conditioner

Install Exhaust Hose and Adapter

1. Roll the air conditioner to selected location. see “Location Requirements”
2. Preparing the exhaust hose assembly: Press the flexible exhaust hose into the coupling and the window exhaust adapter, Both the coupling and window exhaust adapter have integral clips that snap onto the hose.
3. Insert the coupling into the slot on the back of the air conditioner.
4. Slide down to lock the hose into place.
5. Confirm the hose is locked in place before operating.

Window Installation

Your window installation kit has been designed to fit most standard vertical and horizontal window applications. Roll the air conditioner to selected location. see “Location Requirements”

1. Attach the window exhaust adapter to the outer slider section (the piece with the large exhaust hole).

NOTE: Product must be used with included Duct Window installation kit for effective cooling.

Installation In Vertical Sliding Windows

NOTE:The window installation kit can be used with vertical sliding windows between 18'' and 50'' wide.

1. Cut the foam seal L(adhesive type) & M (adhesive type-shorter)to the proper length,and attcah it to the window sash and frame.
2. Insert the vent panel assembly, including extension panels, if needed, into the window opening. Extend the extension panels to the window width.
3. Cut the foam seal A(Non-adhesive type) to the window width. Stuff the foam seal A between the glass and the window to prevent air and foreign objects from getting into the room.
4. Install the Window-lock bracket with a type F screw as shown if you need.
5. Insert the window exhaust adapter into the opening in the vent panel.

PORTABLE AIR CONDITIONER USE

Operating your portable air conditioner properly helps you to obtain the best possible results. This section explains proper air conditioner operation.

IMPORTANT:

• Do not stay in direct airflow from the air conditioner for extended periods of time.
• Never use in tightly enclosed spaces. Always ensure there is sufficient airflow of outside air entering the household especially when used in conjunction with combustible devices such as gas stoves, fireplaces, furnaces, hot water heaters etc. Do not place the power cord or air conditioner near a heater, radiator, stoves or other apparatus(including amplifiers) that produce heat.
• This air conditioner is intended for household use as a residential appliance. Do not use it as a precision climate control for commercial use, or for precision equipment, food, pets, plants, artwork, etc.
• Do not block or obstruct the exhaust vent hose as it may severely affect performance, or cause failure of the air conditioner.
• The air conditioner display shows the current room temperature.
• When changing modes while the air conditioner is in operation, the compressor will stop for 3 to 5 minutes before restarting. If a button is pressed during this time, the compressor will not restart for another 3 to 5 minutes.
• In Cooling or Dry mode, the compressor and condenser fan will stop when the room temperature reaches the set temperature
• On Dry mode, the humidity level is automatically set, but is not able to be displayed.

NOTE: In the event of a power failure, your air conditioner will operate at the previous settings when the power is restored.

Air conditioner seems to run too much

Is there a door or window open?

Keep doors and windows closed.

The current air conditioner replaced an older model.

The use of more efficient components may cause the air conditioner to run longer than an older model. but the total energy consumption will be less. Newer air conditioners do not emit the “ blast” of cold air you may be accustomed to from older units. but this is not an indication of lesser cooling capacity or efficiency. Refer to the efficiency rating (EER) and capacity rating (in Blu/h) marked on the air conditioner.

The air conditioner is in a heavily occupied room. or heat producing appliances are in use in the room.

Use exhaust vent fans while cooking or bathing and try not to use heat-producing appliances during the hottest part of the day. Portable air conditioners are designed as supplemental cooling to local areas within a room. A higher capacity air conditioner may be required. depending on the size of the room being cooled.

Air conditioner runs for a short time only, but room is not cool

Set temperature is close to room temperature.

Lower set temperature. See " portable Air Conditioner Use "

Display error code

If the unit displays error code E5. the water container is full.

Drain the water. see “Draining the air conditioner”. After draining. the unit can be operated again.

If the unit display error code E1/E2/ES/E4/E6/ETIEA.
