INSTALLATION
Installation of the exhaust pipe
This unit is a portable air conditioner, which may be easily moved from room to
room, using the following methods
1. Using the foam strips
•Open a suitable window
•Place the unit at least 50cm away from the window
•Feed the exhaust hose through the foam strip and push through the
window
•Gently close the window so the foam strip is held securely
WARNING – to help prevent crime, close and lock the window when the unit
is not in use
2. Using the adaptor
•Carefully cut a 130mm diameter hole in the wall or window
•Feed the exhaust hose through the window or wall and attach the
threaded adaptor from the outside as shown
•When not in use, plug the hole with the cover provided

INSTALLATION
Mounting of the exhaust pipe
•Using only the hose
provided, clip the exhaust
hose and unit adaptor to the
back of the air conditioner
•Avoid kinks and bends in
the exhaust hose as this will
cause expelled moist air to
build up causing the unit to
overheat and shut down
•The hose may be extended
from 300mm to 1500mm,
however for maximum
efficiency use the shortest
length possible
WARNING
The length of the exhaust
pipe is specially designed
according to the specification
of this product. Do not
replace or lengthen it with
your other hose products as
this could cause the unit to
mal-function

Please Note
1. To prolong the compressor's life, after turning the unit off, please wait for at
least 3 minuites before turning on again
2. The cooling system will switch off if the ambient temperature is lower than
the one set one. However, if the ambient tempertaure rises above the
selected level, the cooling system will restart
3. The heating system will switch off if the ambient temperature is higher than
the one set. As the ambient temperature drops below the selected level, the
heating system will restart
4. The fan will continue to work on the set level regardless of the ambient
temperature
5. This machine is equipped with an ANTI-FROST function. While using the
heating function during low temperatures, the heating function will
occasionally stop for a short period of time, in order to melt the frost

11
DRAINAGE
During the process of cooling, some water will be extracted from the air into the
unit. If the reservoir is full, both the compressor and the motor will stop. When
this occurs, the ‘comp’ indicator will flash
For the unit to function again, the water must be drained in one of the following
ways:
1. Turn off the air conditioner
2. Position the water tray underneath
the drain hole
3. Remove the drain knob & rubber
plug from the drain hole and allow
the water to drain out
4. Replace the rubber plug in the drain
hole whilst emptying the water tray
5. Repeat stages 3 and 4 until the unit
is emptied
6. Replace the rubber plug and tighten
the drain knob firmly
7. Switch on the unit – (the ‘comp’ light
should not be flashing)
If you wish to operate the unit without the need to empty the water tank, please:
•Remove the drain knob and rubber
plug and retain for future use
•Connect the drain tube supplied to
the water outlet as shown and plac
e
the other end into a drain
•The drain tube may be extended by
adding an extension tube and using
a suitable connector (not supplied)

1. The drain must be at or below
the outlet level
2. Flashing ‘comp’ indicator will
not function with this method
of drainage
3. If you want to extend the
water tube, you can connect it
with another tube (OD: 18mm)
