TIPS FOR CORRECT USE
To get the best from your air conditioner, follow these
recommendations:
•Close the windows and doors in the room to be air
conditioned (fig. 1). When installing the air
conditioner semi-permanently, you should leave a
door slightly open (as little as 1cm) to guarantee
correct ventilation.
•Protect the room from direct exposure to the sun by
partially closing curtains and/or blinds to make the
appliance much more economical to run (fig. 2).
•Never rest objects of any kind on the air conditioner.
•Do not obstruct the air intake and outlet (fig. 3). Leave
the grilles free.
•Make sure there are no heat sources in the room.
•Never use the appliance in very damp rooms
(laundries for example).
•Never use the appliance outdoors.
•Make sure the air conditioner is standing on a level
surface. If necessary, place the castor locks under the
front wheels.
WATER DRAINAGE METHOD
This air conditioner is equipped with the very last MIST technology which means
the water tank nearly never fills, hence, water drainage will generally only be
required at the end of the season (see START-END OF SEASON OPERATIONS).
However, the MIST technology does not operate when the unit is in HEAT mode.
Thus, the tank may still require emptying in HEAT mode.

A12
17
www.blaupunkt.com
NOTE
As a safety measure, to positively prevent water spillage, the air conditioner is
equipped with a fail safe device, if, the water tank fills. The unit will completely stop,
the control panel displays “ ” (FULL TANK as mentioned in SELF-DIAGNOSIS), the
compressor and fan will nor restart until the tank has been drained.
INTERMITTENT DRAINAGE (fig. 4 and fig. 5)
•Turn the air conditioner off, then drain the water tank by unplugging the drain
cap and allowing the water to flow onto the drain pan. The drain pan will not
hold the full contents of water tank. A number of fills of the drain pan are
required. It may be easier (after 3 or 4 pans have been drained in order to avoid
accidental spillage when moving the air conditioner) to wheel the unit outside,
remove the drain cap and drain the water onto the ground freely.
•The water tank is considered sufficiently when no more water flows from the
drain outlet to completely drain all water from the water tank, tilt the unit by
lifting it slightly upwards from the front until no more water drains from the
outlet.
•Restart the air conditioner by pressing the ON/OFF button. Ensure that the unit is
in COOL, DRY or HEAT mode. The compressor will start approximately 3 minutes
after the unit is switched on.

A12

www.blaupunkt.com
CONTINUOUS DRAINAGE (fig. 6 and fig. 7)
When operating in HEAT mode, continuous drain method can also be used to avoid
the trouble of manual drainage.
•Empty the water tank completely.
•Connect one end of the drain hose on the drain outlet, and lead the other end to
outdoor or and place where can be drained freely.
•Turn on the appliance and select HEAT mode.
When continuous drainage method adopted in HEAT mode, the water removed
from the air flows out through the drain hose continuously.
NOTE
Please be sure that the height of and section of the drain hose should not be higher
than that of the drain outlet, or the water tank may not be drained.
CLEANING
Before cleaning or maintenance, turn the appliance off by pressing button on
the control panel or remote control, wait for a few minutes then unplug from the
mains socket.
CLEANING THE CABINET

A12
19
www.blaupunkt.com
You should clean the appliance with a slightly damp cloth then dry with a dry cloth.
Never wash the air conditioner with water. It could be dangerous.
Never use petrol, alcohol or solvents to clean the appliance
Never spray insecticide liquids or similar.
CLEANING THE AIR FILTERS
To keep your air conditioner working efficiently, you should clean the filter every
week of operation.
The evaporator filter can take out like fig. 8.
The condenser filters are two pieces.
Step 1: Take out one filter like fig. 9.
Step 2: Take out other filter like fig. 10-11.
Use vacuum cleaner to remove dust accumulations from the filter. If it is very dirty,
immerse in warm water and rinse a number of times. The water should never be
hotter than 40ºC. After washing, leave the filter to dry then attach the intake grille to
the appliance.

START-END OF SEASON OPERATIONS
START OF SEASON CHECKS
Make sure the power cable and plug are
undamaged and the earth system is efficient. Follow
the installation instructions precisely.
END OF SEASON OPERATIONS
To empty the internal circuit completely of water,
remove the cap (fig. 12). Run off all water left into a
basin. When all the water has been drained, put the
cap back in place. Clean the filter and dry thoroughly before putting back.
