Mounting the Window Hose

ENGLISH (Original instructions)
10
♦ To attach the window hose, clip it to the back of
the air cooling unit. Take care to avoid any bends
or kinks as this could cause the pipe to clog,
resulting in overheating and potential malfunction.
The illustrations above show the correct position
for the window hose.
Note! Although the hose may be extended up to
a total length of 30cm, we recommend its length
be kept as short as possible to ensure optimal
performance.
Note! Use ONLY the hose provided with your air
cooling unit. Attempting to attach other hoses
to it to extend the length could result in the unit
malfunctioning.
Installing the Carbon Filter
This unit comes complete with an included carbon
lter. You will need to install this lter before

♦ Automatic Mode - Automatic mode is the unit’s
default working mode. In this mode, the unit will
automatically detect ambient temperature in the
room and select the appropriate function. If the
ambient temperature is above 23 degrees, the
unit will automatically start in cooling mode; if
the temperature is 23 degrees or below, it will
automatically start in ventilation mode.
The corresponding indicators will light up to show
which mode the unit is operating in. For cooling
mode, the Auto and Cooling indicators will light up;
for ventilation mode, the Auto and Fan indicator
will light up.
Note! When the unit is in Automatic mode,
temperature levels cannot be manually controlled or

Draining the Unit
Draining
Knob
Rubber PlugWater Hole
While the unit is operating, water will be extracted
from the air into the built-in water tank.
When the reservoir is full, both the compressor and
motor will stop, the unit will emit a buzzing sound and
the ‘Water’ and ‘Comp’ indicator on the unit’s control
panel will begin to ash.
When this occurs, we recommend you drain or
empty the water tank, to ensure the unit continues to
operate correctly.
To empty the water tank, follow the steps
below:
♦ Turn off the unit and avoid moving it.
♦ Place a container, such as a water tray,
underneath the drain hole.
♦ Remove the drain plug and plug cap, to allow the
water to drain out.
♦ When the container is almost full, place the drain
plug back into the plug hole and empty the water
tray.
♦ Repeat this procedure until the unit is empty.
♦ Once you have emptied the unit, put the rubber
plug and plug cap back into place and tighten the
cap rmly.
♦ When you have completed the drainage process,
turn the unit back on and ensure the ‘Water’ and
’Comp’ indicators are no longer ashing. This
signals the process has been carried out correctly
and the unit has been drained.
Note! To stop the buzzing sound, press any button
on the unit’s remote control.
Note! Always wait at least 3 minutes after switching
off the unit before turning it back on. This will help
prolong the life of the compressor.
Draining Without the Tank
♦ You can also drain the unit without needing to
empty the water tank. To do so, simply remove
the drain plug and plug cap, insert the drain tube
into the water outlet, and connect the other end of
this tube into a drain, as shown in the illustrations
below.
Note! The drain must be at or below the outlet level.
Note! Please note that when using this method of
drainage, the ‘Water’ indicator on the unit’s control
panel will not ash.
Drain Tube
