When switching off or moving the unit to
another place wait at least 5 minutes
before restarting the air conditioner.
Do not obstruct the sides, front and rear
grille with curtains or other objects.
Do not put objects on the unit.
To change the room temperature
turn:
the thermostat knob clockwise to lower
the temperature and counterclockwise
to raise it.
Adjusting the air flow direction
The air conditioner has a guide vane
at the top that can be adjusted to any
angle between 10°(partially closed)
and 60°(fully open).
Depending on the angle, the air flow
direction changes as shown.
Never use the air conditioner with the
guide vane closed.
Never let the outdoor unit hang on
the flexible tube. Never move either unit by pulling on

Place the outdoor unit outside, ensuring that air can
circulate freely around and through the unit.
Secure the casing to the bracket with
the spring-clips at the end of the
straps.
Adjust the length of the straps so that
the casing is level. This will help with
the discharge of the condensate water.
The flexible tube can be trapped
between two shutters set ajar.
For this solution, use the window
suction cup supplied, as shown.
Making a cut-out of 35 x18 mm in the
lower window or door frame to acco-
modate the flexible tube allows the unit
to be used with the window or door
closed.
For window sill installation use the supplied bracket and screws.
Fix the bracket to the window sill as shown.
