General Safety
Transport the air conditioner in an
upright position only, or leave it in an
upright position for at least 2 hours
before use (Fig 1).
Use only in the upright position on a flat
level surface and at least 50cm from any
objects.
Do not place objects on the air conditioner,
or through the ventilating slots or restrict
the air inlets & outlets (Fig 2).
Closely supervise any children and pets
when the air conditioner is in use.
For indoor use only.
Ensure the appliance has been installed in
acco rdance w ith nati onal wiring
regulations.
Electrical Safety
Do not store or operate the appliance near
any flammable substances.
During operation, water will collect in the
bottom tank of the air conditioner. Be
careful when moving the unit to prevent
water from spilling.
Electrical Safety (cont)
Caution! before connecting the
electrical power cord to a power outlet,
check that the air conditioner voltage is
the same as your power supply (refer to
the rating label located on the side of the
unit - refer Fig 4). Ensure the power supply
is correctly earthed and rated.
Plug the air conditioner directly into a
properly installed power outlet. Never use
an extension cord, double adaptor or multi
power outlet board to run this air
conditioner.
Do not pull the unit along by the power cord
or place the power cord near a source of
heat. Always unroll the power cord
completely before use.
Switch off and unplug when not in use.
Do not use in humid environments such as
bathrooms, laundries or other steamy or
wet areas.
Do not touch or operate the air conditioner
with wet or damp hands or when standing

Assembling the exhaust hose (Fig 5,6)
Step 1:
Step 2:
Step 3:
Fit the exhaust hose to the rear
panel outlet by screwing the hose in a
counter-clockwise direction
Snap the oblong connector into
position on the window attachment.
Open the window and fit the
adjustable window attachment. Extend
the attachment as required and lock into
place with the locking screw. Ensure the
outlet is not obscured. The window
attachment can be installed horizontally
or vertically, depending on the window
type.
Note!
Note!
The minimum distance required
from the operating air conditioner to
any obstructing objects or walls is
50cm (Fig 6).
Keep the exhaust hose as short and
straight as possible and minimise
kinks. This will maximise the cooling
performance.
Don’t use extension pieces for the
exhaust pipe as this will reduce the
cooling performance and possibly
r e s u l t i n d a m a g e t o t h e a i r
conditioner.
Hot air and possibly mist will be
emitted from the exhaust hose.
It is critical to the cooler’s
performance that the hot exhaust air
is completely removed from the space
being cooled.

If there are two of the same air
conditioners installed, they cannot be
controlled separately. When you operate
either remote, it will turn on both air
conditioners if they are both within signal
range (6 metres).
Don’t let the remote control drop onto hard
surfaces or be subjected to sudden
shocks in any way. The warranty does not
cover misuse or accidental damage.
Don’t place the remote control in direct
sunlight, or near extremes of temperature.
This will affect the control’s temperature
reading.
Don’t allow the remote control to get wet.
Don’t place near strong electromagnetic
waves.
Don’t mix old and new batteries ! If the
remote control will not be used for a long
time, remove the batteries to avoid
corrosion.

Air Direction Vanes: The air conditioner
is fitted with 2 sets of air direction vanes for
horizontal and vertical air direction.
Carefully move the vanes to the desired
position by hand (Fig 12).
During cooling mode, water
will collect in the air conditioner’s tank.
This water is recirculated and some will be
exhausted out with the hot air, but will
slowly fill up the tank. This occurs more
quickly in humid conditions. If the tank
should fill, the ‘water full’ s y m b o l
will flash on the control display, the unit will
‘beep’ and then shut down. The cooler
cannot be restarted until the water tank is
drained. Refer to the Maintenance section
for draining the tank should this occur.

Remove all filters (4 total)
from the air conditioner
and clean every 2 weeks.

Never try to dismantle the air conditioner yourself.
Problem Check
The air conditioner does
not run.
Is the air conditioner plugged in ?
Is there a power failure ?
Is the "WATER FULL" error code flashing?
Drain the tank as shown (Fig 13).
Is the room temperature below the set temperature ?
The air conditioner has little
effect (firstly ensure that the
room being cooled is not too
large for the stated capacity
of the air conditioner).
Is there direct sunshine ? Remember to close
curtains or blinds.
Are windows or doors open ?
More people in the room will generate more heat.
Is there something in the room producing excessive
heat ?
Is the exhaust fitted correctly or obstructed ? All
exhaust air needs to be completely removed from
the room.
The air conditioner is not as
cool as it once was.
Are the filters dusty or dirty, restricting the airflow ?
Is the air inlet or outlet blocked ?
Is the room temperature below the set temperature ?
The air conditioner is too
noisy.
Is the air conditioner positioned unevenly, so as to
create vibration ?
Is the floor beneath the air conditioner uneven ?
It is possible that the overheat protection for the
compressor is on. Wait for it to reset.
Note: when changing between different modes
(cooling to fan or dehumidifying mode etc) the
compressor will turn off. A 3 minute delay will occur
before the compressor will turn on again.
The compressor will not run.
In case of problems that cannot be fixed by using the above guide,
or if service on your air conditioner is required, please contact your
dealer or designated service agent.
