•TIMER- each time this button is pressed, the digit in the middle
of the display increments up by 1. The digit in the display corresponds to the amount of time (in hours) that the unit will run before shutting itself off. If you do not select a timer setting, the unit will run continuously
•-ION- this button toggles the ionizer on and off. The ionizer
cleans the air that passes through the unit
Unpacking and first using the unit
•Carefully open the box(es) and take the unit out. Remove all
packing/plastic bags, etc.
•COOLER/HUMIDIFIER- this button turns on or off the
cooling function. When the “COOLER/HUMIDIFIER” light on the control panel is lit, the unit pumps water from its reservoir over the fabric water curtain. As air is drawn past this water, the endothermic effects of evaporation result in cooling
•Set the unit upright
•Plug the unit in
•Open the water port and fill the unit with water. Do not over-fill
the unit.
•SWING- this button turns on or off the oscillation function.
When the unit oscillates, the base remains still and the upper part of the tower turns back and forth, directing airflow around the room
•Close the water port door
•Turn the unit on with the ON/OFF button and select your
desired settings
Note: the unit includes two ice boxes. To use them, fill them with water and freeze them. Then put them into the unit’s water reservoir. You may use them one at a time or concurrently.
•SPEED- this button adjust the speed. There are three speed
settings for airflow. Note that when the unit is initially turned on, it starts on medium speed and changes to low speed automatically
Draining the unit
•MODE- this button toggles the airflow functions. There are
three functions:
•If you ever need to drain the unit, first make sure the unit is in
an appropriate place for drainage
oNormal/manual- this mode, represented by three
horizontal wavy lines, allows you to manually set the airflow speed
•Remove the drain plug from the rear of the unit
•Allow the water to drain out
•Reinstall the drain plug
oNatural/variable- this mode, represented by a
mountain, automatically shifts the airflow speeds between the three settings
Cleaning
•Pre-filter- depending on the environment, the pre-filter may
require cleaning every two weeks to every two months or more. The easiest way to clean the pre-filter is to vacuum it with a brush attachment.
oSleep- this mode, represented by “ZZZ”, operates like
the Normal/manual mode, but the airflow speed gradually decreases over a period of 1-2 hours, and the unit eventually turns itself off. The higher the initial airflow setting, the longer the unit runs before shutting off, and the greater the different airflow speeds the unit cycles through prior to shutting off
If the pre-filter is exceptionally dirty, you may remove it from the unit (unplug the unit first) and wash it in a mild soap and water solution. Rinse it thoroughly and allow it to dry completely before reinstalling.

•Fabric water curtain- this should also be cleaned every two
weeks to every two months, again depending upon the environment. Unplug the unit, remove the pre-filter, and gently remove the fabric water curtain (it should pull off the fastening strips). Wash it in a mild soap and water solution. Rinse it thoroughly and allow it to dry completely before reinstalling.
•Water tank- if the tank becomes dirty, mildewy, or acquires
hard water deposits, unplug the unit, remove the water port door and carefully clean the inside of the tank with a soft cloth and a mild soap and water solution. Rinse out the solution and drain the unit as best you can, but take care not to get any of the unit’s electronics wet.
•Exterior of the unit- unplug the unit. Carefully wash it with a
mild soap and water solution and a soft cloth. Dry the unit with a soft cloth.
