•Do not clean the unit by spraying it or immersing it in water.
• Never connect the unit to an electrical outlet using an extension cord. If an outlet is not available,
one should be installed by a quali ed electrician.
• Never operate this appliance if the cord or plug is damaged. Ensure the power cord is not
stretched or exposed to sharp object/edges.
• A damaged supply cord should be replaced by the manufacturer or a quali ed electrician in

•Any service other than regular cleaning or lter replacement should be performed by an
authorized service representative. Failure to comply could result in a voided warranty.
•Do not use the appliance for any other purposes than its intended use.
•The air conditioner unit must always be stored and transported upright, otherwise irreparable
damage may be caused to the compressor; if in doubt we suggest waiting at least 24 hours
before starting the unit.
•Avoid restarting the air conditioning unit unless 5 minutes have passed since being turned o .

Energy Saving and Unit Safety Protection Tips
• Do not cover or restrict the airow from the outlet or inlet grills.
•For maximum performance the minimum distance from a wall or objects should be minimum 50cm.
• Keep the lters clean. Under normal conditions, lters should only need cleaning once every
three weeks (approximately). Since the lters remove airborne particles, more frequent cleaning
maybe necessary, depending on the air quality.
•For the initial startup set the fan speed to maximum and the thermostat to 4-5 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 is higher than 35 ℃.

Important safeguards
The length of the soft hose extends from 28 cm to 150 cm. If hose is extended above this length
the unit may malfunction and this can invalidate the warranty.
The outlet vent must be well ventilated and not obstructed as this will cause the unit to overheat.
Avoid bending the air hose more than 30°.

Note:The window kit is only designed to be installed with
sliding or sash windows or doors.The window kit is not
designed or to be used with any other style of windows.
However the fish tail adaptor can be used
with most windows / doors.
When using the cooling mode ensure that
the opening left is as small as possible.
The best form of installation is through a
wall duct.
Please note that the unit will need to be
vented out in heating mode, ideally through
the wall. By properly venting you expel cold air from your room while efficiently heating it.
Your air conditioner can be used without venting in dehumidifier mode. Please ensure external
water tank is used, monitored and regularly emptied before over spilling. Permanent plumbing
can be also installed in dehumidifier mode or external water pump for unattended use.
