BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE
●Check that the power supply at the location where the air conditioner is going to be used is 220-240V ~ 50Hz .
●Make sure that the electrical installation is suitable to supply continuously current necessary for the air conditioner in
addition to that already used by other electric appliances (white goods, lighting). See the max electric input indicated
on the name plate positioned on the air conditioner.
●The installation of a double-pole switch, protected by 16Afuses of the delayed type, upstream the electricity wall socket,
is recommended.
●The unit has to be connected according to the local electrical rules.
●Make sure that circuit breakers, fuses, etc, are of sufficient capacity to handle a start-up current of 20A(generally less
then 1 second).
●Do not install the air conditioner where it could be wetted by drops of water (i.e. in laundries).
●Before connecting the air conditioner to a power socket, make sure that the socket is provided with an earth connection
in compliance with local codes.
●Never use the power plug as a mean to start or stop the air conditioner: always use the ON/OFF button of the remote
control unit or the operation button on the unit.
●WARNING! Do not stick anything into the air outlet of the air conditioner. This is very dangerous because the fan is rotating
at high speed.
●WARNING!
The air conditioner is provided with a time-guard system, which does not allow re-starting of compressor until after 3
minutes from a previous stop.
●Make sure that there are no obstacles around the unit affecting the free circulation of air. Do not block the air intakes
and outlet of the unit with curtains or other. Never put objects on the top of the unit.
●When you switch on the air conditioner for the first time, it reaches the maximum efficiency after at least one hour of
operation.
●The manufacturer assumes no responsibilities if the safety regulations or local codes are not observed.

and checked by the temperature sensor placed in the
remote controller (I FEEL icon displayed ).This function
is designed to provide a comfortable room temperature
by transmitting the temperature control command from the
location next to you. When using this function, the remote,
control should always be pointed at the air conditioner,
therefore it should be placed in a position in which it is
visible by the indoor unit (for example, do not put it in a
drawer).
●It is possible to disable the remote controller room sensor
pressing the I FEEL button. In this case the I FEEL icon
on the remote controller display lights off and only the
sensor placed in the air conditioner becomes active.
The remote control unit transmits signals to the indoor

●Always switch off the air conditioner before unplugging
it from the power socket.
●Always unplug the air conditioner before discharging the
condensate water collected inside.
WARNING
The Humidity removed by the unit is collected and
discharged automatically, but in special conditions some
condensate water could remain inside the unit.
If you are not going to make use of the air conditioner for
a long period, it is necessary to discharge the eventual
condensate water through the service tube for condensate
discharge placed under the bottom of the unit.
At the end of the operation close the tube with its stopper.
HOW TO DISCHARGE THE CONDENSATE WATER
IMPORTANT
CARE AND CLEANING
WARNING! For safety’s sake, be sure to turn the air conditioner
OFF and also disconnect it from the power supply before cleaning
it.
1. Cleaning of the Air Filter
The air filter must be checked at least once every two weeks
operation. Operation with a dirty filter always causes a lower
efficiency of the air conditioner and severe product damage.
The filter is located at the back of the front intake grille: open
the grille pulling downward the two hooks, grasp the air filter and
pull upwards. Use a vacuum cleaner to remove light dust. If
there is sticky dust on the filter, wash it with lukewarm soapy
water, then rinse in clean, cold water and dry it before
reinstallation.
2. Cleaning of Casing and Grilles.
To clean the air conditioner, wipe it with a clean soft cloth, lightly
moisted. In case it is stained, moisten the cloth with soapy
water. Never use solvents or harsh chemicals, nor very hot
water. Do not pour water over the air conditioner to clean it:
this will damage the internal components and cause an electric
shock hazard.
3. After use.
If you are not going to make use of the air conditioner for a
long period, clean the air filter and verify that there is no
condensate water inside the bottom of the unit (see paragraph
“HOW TO DISCHARGE THE CONDENSATE WATER”). Do
not put heavy objects on top of the unit.
4. Transport.
Keep the air conditioner in the vertical position during
transportation.
5. For your safety care check periodically the conditions of
the electric supply cable; the electrical connection of the
unit is Y type with cable prepared in a special way; in case
you should notice any damage due to usage, call the
nearest After Sale Service to get the cable replaced.
