This unit is portable and can easily be moved from one room to another. In doing
so keep this in mind:
• The air conditioner must stand upright on an even surface.
• Position not (near) bath, douche or other wet or damp area.
• Keep for free air circulation at least 50 cm free from any obstacle or curtains.

GB
• Put the exhaust hose into the round side of the exhaust hose adapter (13) (fig. 1).
• Put the wall/window adapter (14) onto the exhaust hose (fig. 2).
• Connect the hose with the rectangular end to the air conditioner (fig. 4).
Using the foam.
Place the foam with the hole (11), if needed together with the foam extension (10),
in the window and close this as far as possible to refrain the warm air from re-
entering the room (fig. 5). Depending on how the window opens, horizontally
(fig. 3a) or vertically (fig. 3b).
Pass the hose through the opening in the foam (11).
Permanent hole in glass or wall.
Place the wall/window connector (14) in the hole with diameter 130 millimetre
(fig. 6). Connect the hose with the rectangular end to the air conditioner (fig. 4).
Use the cap (15) to close the opening when the air conditioner is not used.
Important
The flexible exhaust hose can be extended from 300 to 1500 mm for mounting.
This length has been designed especially according to the specifications of the air
conditioner. Do not use an extension or exchange for a different hose as that may
lead to malfunctioning.
The exhaust air must flow freely, any blockage can lead to overheating of the air
conditioner. Take care to prevent any bow or bend in the exhaust hose.

• The compressor has been set so that it starts functioning three minutes after the
(re)start of the air conditioner.
• The cooling will switch off when the room temperature is lower than the set
one. Ventilation will however continue to work on the set level. When the room
temperature rises above the selected value, the cooling will work again.
GB
When the water container is full, the compressor and
the ventilator stop functioning, the POWER LED will
flash.
Switch off the unit and remove the plug from the
mains.
• Place the water tray flat on the floor under the drain.
• Remove the drain knob.
• Remove the rubber plug and fill the water tray then replace the plug to stop
