The Refrigerant R290 Gas

This appliance contains of ammable

R290 refrigerant gas.

Read the precauons in this manual care-

fully before operang the unit.

Our portable air condioners contain the non-pollung refrigerant R290 with no harm to our ozone, it helps

reduce global warming potenal. This refrigerant complies with the European Environmental Direcves.

There are some important safety precauons that you need to follow :-

1. Do not use these appliances in rooms smaller than shown below for each of the models to prevent

re, explosions :-

Model Minimum Floor Area (m2) Contains R290 (Grams)

CRYSTAL MK2 7000 BTU 4150g

CRYSTAL MK2 9000 BTU 11 180g

CRYSTAL MK2 12000 BTU 11 220g

APOLLO MK2 12000 BTU 11 200g

2. Do not use these appliances in a room with connuous sources of ignion such as open ames, gas

appliances, electric heaters, cigaree smoking and other other sources of ignions.

3. Always store these appliances in a well-venlated area with a minimum size shown in the above

table.

4. Keep any required venlaon openings clear of obstrucons.

BS PLUG WIRING

Wiring Instrucons: Should it be necessary to change the plug, please note the wires in the mains lead

are coloured in accordance with the following codes:

BLUE - NEUTRAL

BROWN – LIVE

GREEN AND YELLOW - EARTH

In the event that the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this appliance do not correspond with the

coloured markings idenfying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:

1. The BLUE wire is NEUTRAL and must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the leer N or

coloured BLACK.

2. The BROWN wire is LIVE and must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the leer L or col-

oured RED.

3. The GREEN/YELLOW is EARTH and must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the leer E

or or coloured GREEN or GREEN/YELLOW.

4. Always ensure that the cord grip is posioned and fastened correctly.

If a 13A (BS 1363) fused plug is used it must be ed with a 13A fuse. If in doubt consult a

qualied electrician.

 The appliance is for indoor use only, and must not be installed in a high humidity area (i.e.

laundry room or wet room).

 Place the appliance on a even level oor that is strong enough to support the unit.

 Allow at least 50cm of air space on all sides of the appliance for good venlaon to avoid over-

heang.

 Only use the appliance within the operang temperature in an area where the temperature

will not fall below 16°C. Do note operate the appliance where the temperature is below 16°C

to avoid frosng of the coils consequently reducing its performance.

Tips to avoid water leakage

 Ensure the appliance is on an even level surface.

 Make sure the drainage hose C2 is clear of any obstruc-

ons.

 The drainage hose C2 must allow water to drain down-

wards from the drainage ports (without any kinks or

upward angles)

 Do not submerge the end of the drainage hose in water

(this will cause back pressure and the water will not

drain.

INSTALLATION OF DRAINAGE

When running the appliance in Heat Mode or Dry Mode, the connuous drainage must be

installed. Prior to storing the appliance, always drain as below.

This air condioning is a self-evaporang appliance. When running any air condioning, moisture

will be extracted from the ambient and the condensaon will self- evaporate. However, when the

ambient air is very high in humidity, excess condensaon will accumulate at a higher rate than the

evaporave acons can manage. The excess humidity will be collected into a tray at the boom of

the air condioning that requires manual draining.

When the tray is full the appliance will display (H8) on the display panel
