INSTALLATION
Warning：Before using this unit, please keep it upright for at least 3-4 hours.
This unit can easily be moved from one room to another.
While moving the unit please note that it must always be kept upright and then placed on
an even surface.
1. Assemble the fishtail connector on to the hose, by extending the end of the hose and
twisting the fishtail into position (At least 3 full rotations)
2. Twist the connector on the
opposite end of the hose into the
Air outlet hose connector on the
rear of the appliance.
INSTALLATION OF WINDOW KIT
3. Partially open the window and then fix the window kit to the window.

Page 8 of 16
4. Make sure the unit is upright and there are no
obstructions to the air inlets and outlet grill. The
unit should be positioned at least 50cm away from
walls or other objects within the room.
5. Fix the other end of the hose
to the air-outlet window kit
Note: The window kit is only designed to be installed with sliding or sash windows or
doors. The window kit is not designed or to be used with any other style of windows.
However the fish tail adaptor can be used with most windows / doors. When using the
cooling mode ensure that the opening left is as small as possible. The best form of
installation is through a wall duct. Please note that the unit will need to be vented outside.
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
The length of the soft hose extends from 28 cm to 150 cm. If hose is extended above this
length the unit may malfunction and this can invalidate the warranty.
The outlet vent must be well ventilated and not
obstructed as this will cause the unit to overheat.
Avoid bending the air hose more than 30
degrees.
If the unit does not reach the desired venting point it may be installed on a flat surface
such as a table, although precautions should be taken to ensure the unit is not at risk of
falling.

WATER-DRAINAGE
MANUAL DRAINAGE:
1. When the internal water tank is full the unit
will stop working and display the message
“FL” on the display.
2. Shut off the unit and unplug. Try not to move
the model abruptly as this may cause water
to spill out from internal water tank.
3. Place a tray under the water plug.
4. Unscrew the water plug and unplug the
water blocker - water will drain from the
internal tank.
5. Place the water blocker back in position and
screw the water plug back into place
CONTINUOUS DRAINAGE:
1. Unscrew off the water plug and unplug the water blocker.
2. Use a water pipe to connect to the water outlet.
3. You can plumb this pipe into your current plumbing system, lead it outside or use a
water pump.
Note: This model has a self-evaporative function, which reduces the need to empty the
water tank. If the unit is vented correctly most of the water is reused to cool the condenser
coils and any excess is evaporated. Please do not use continuous drainage if you intend to
use the self-evaporating facility. In heating or dehumidifier mode you may need to use the
permanent drainage.
