2. Product Description
The Evaporative Air Cooler is an efficient, energy-saving product. It cools by combining water
evaporation with air movement, through carefully designed and manufactured equipment,
providing maximum efficiency and safety.
The evaporative cooling technology is very economical and gives a number of additional
benefits compared to traditional air conditioning systems for homes and businesses. The
system does not use refrigerants or compressors; it cools by simply moving air through a surface
composed of specially designed evaporative cooling pads.
Heat from the inlet air is absorbed by the water. The resulting outlet air temperature drops
when the water transforms into gas. Humidity is not perceived, since the air in the room is
renewed approximately every two minutes, while a comfortable cooling effect is created.
Continuous air circulation is a vital aspect of the evaporative cooling process used in this
equipment and gives it a distinct advantage over air conditioning by refrigeration.

5. Plug the unit into a 120 VAC (± 10%) 60 Hz, 1 phase GFCI
protected grounded outlet.
6. Operation
Control Panel & Remote Control
1. POWER (ON/OFF) [ ]:Press this button to switch the cooler on/off. Icon will glow with blue
colour at ON position and RED colour at OFF position.
2. COOL [ ]: Press the button to switch the pump ON/OFF. Cool Icon will glow when switched
ON. The pump will start only when there is sufficient water in the tank, indicated by water icon
glowing in WHITE. Low water level will be indicated by a buzzer for 5 seconds and water icon will
start blinking in red colour.
3. FAN [ ]:When started, the fan icon will glow. Press the button for High, Medium and Low
speeds. The selected speed will be indicated by glowing LED.

short period. During cooling mode, if water depletes and triggers the alarm, add water to tank
through “front water inlet”, and press COOL button to turn cooling function on again.
REMOTE CONTROL (Batteries not included): Open the battery compartment at the back of the
remote control and insert two new AAA dry cell batteries. Care must be taken to insert the
batteries into the correct polarity (+/-) markings shown inside the battery compartment.
Air Renewal Requirements:
When your cooler is working, it is important to leave a window or door open in order to keep a
constant air flow and to avoid any accumulation of humidity and heat. Your Evaporative Cooler
does not cool correctly when air flow is restricted from exiting a room. This causes a decrease in
the cooling efficiency due to an increase of humidity. Therefore, an opening of at least 1 square
foot for every 500 CFM of injected air is required.
7. Maintenance
WARNING
Stagnant water may cause bacterial growth and serious health problems. Do not allow
stagnant water to remain in the tank.
Drain and clean the water tank before storage, after seasonal use and whenever the unit is
not used for a long time period.
Changing the filter pads:
Please follow the instructions below in order to change the filter pads.
1- Remove the top screw (under the power cord). Remove the two screws on the bottom
of filter pad retainer.

2. Descripción del producto
El enfriador de aire evaporativo es un producto eficiente que ahorra energía. Se enfría
combinando la evaporación del agua con el movimiento del aire, a través de equipos
cuidadosamente diseñados y fabricados, que brindan la máxima eficiencia y seguridad.
La tecnología de enfriamiento evaporativo es muy económica y ofrece una serie de beneficios
adicionales en comparación con los sistemas de aire acondicionado tradicionales para hogares
y empresas. El sistema no utiliza refrigerantes ni compresores; se enfría simplemente moviendo
el aire a través de una superficie compuesta de almohadillas de enfriamiento evaporativo
especialmente diseñadas.
El agua absorbe el calor del aire de entrada. La temperatura del aire de salida resultante
desciende cuando el agua se transforma en gas. No se percibe la humedad, ya que el aire de la
habitación se renueva aproximadamente cada dos minutos, mientras se crea un agradable
efecto de enfriamiento. La circulación continua de aire es un aspecto vital del proceso de
enfriamiento por evaporación utilizado en este equipo y le da una clara ventaja sobre el aire
acondicionado por refrigeración.
