SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Impor an !
•Carefully read the instructions before operating the unit
•This appliance is for indoor use only.
•Rating: This unit must be only connected to a 220-240 V / 0 Hz earthed outlet.
•Installation must be in accordance with regulations of the country where the unit is used.
•If you are in any doubt about the suitability of your electrical supply have it checked and, if necessary,
modified by a qualified electrician.
•This air conditioner has been tested and is safe to use. However, as with any electrical appliances - use
it with care.
•Disconnect the power plug from socket before dismantling, assembling or cleaning.
•Avoid touching any moving parts of the appliance.
•Never insert fingers, pencils or any other objects though the guard
•This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or
mental capabilities. It is also not intended for use by those with a lack of experience and knowledge, unless
they have been given supervision or instruction concerning the use of the appliance by a person responsible
for their safety.
Do not leave children unsupervised with this appliance.
•Do not clean the unit by spraying it or immersing it in water.
•Never connect the unit to an electrical outlet using an extension cord. If an outlet is not available, one
should be installed by a qualified electrician.
•Never operate this appliance if the cord or plug is damaged. Ensure the power cord is not stretched or
exposed to sharp object/edges.
• A damaged supply cord should be replaced by the manufacturer or a qualified electrician in order to
avoid a hazard.
•Any service other than regular cleaning or filter replacement should be performed by an authorized
service representative. Failure to comply could result in a voided warranty.
•Do not use the appliance for any other purposes than its intended use.
•The air condi ioner uni mus always be s ored and ranspor ed uprigh , o herwise irreparable
damage may be caused o he compressor; if in doub we sugges wai ing a leas 24 hours before s ar ing
he uni .
•Avoid restarting the air conditioning unit unless 3 minutes have passed since being turned off. This
prevents damage to the compressor.
•Never use the mains plug as a switch to start and turn off the air conditioning unit. Use the provided
ON/OFF switch located on the control panel.
•Always place the unit on a dry and stable surface.
•The appliance should not be installed in laundry or wet rooms
Energy Saving and Uni Safe y Pro ec ion Tips
•Do not cover or restrict the airflow from the outlet or inlet grills.
•For maximum performance the minimum distance from a wall or objects should be 0cm.
•Keep the filters clean. Under normal conditions, filters should only need cleaning once every three
weeks (approximately). Since the filters remove airborne particles, more frequent cleaning maybe necessary,
depending on the air quality.
•For the initial startup set the fan speed to maximum and the thermostat to 4- degrees lower than the
current temperature. After, set the fan switch to low and set the thermostat to your desired setting.
•To protect the unit we recommend not using the cooling function when the ambient temperature is
higher than 3 ℃.

INSTALLATION
1. Ins alla ion
Warning：
：：
：Before using his uni , please keep i uprigh for a leas 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.

2. Extend one head of the hose and screw it into the unit anti-clockwise.
3. Installation of window kits:
Partially open the window and then fix the window kit to the window

Page 7of 14
4. Make sure the unit is upright and there are no obstructions
to the air inlets and outlet grills
. Fix the other end of the hose to the air-outlet window kit
No e:
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 fishtail adaptor instead of sash window kit or wall ducting ensure that the opening left is as
small as possible.
The best form of installation is through a wall duct.
Impor an safeguards
The length of the soft hose extends from 28 cm to 1 0 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 venting point it may be installed on a
flat stable surface such as a table or platform. Castors may
be removed and rubber mat installed underneath.

Mul i pro ec ive func ion
3.1 Anti-freezing protecting control:
When the ambient temperature is low while in Cooling Mode, the compressor and water
motor will stop working if the copper coil temperature reaches <2℃ for over 20 seconds. When
the copper coil temperature increases to >8℃, the protection will be stopped automatically.
3.2、Water-full protection:
When the water level in the internal water tank is surpassing the maximum level, the unit
will alert automatically and “FL” will flash on the LCD screen. Please discharge water in the
machine according to “Water Drainage” chapter
3.3 Compressor delay-protection
Except for the first power-on, the compressor can start instantly.
The compressor also runs under a 3 minute delay protection function.
3.4 Compressor protection
In cooling and dehumidifying mode, if the temperature difference between the coil
temperature and room temperature is less than 3℃, for more than 30 minutes, the
machine will enter ‘no refrigerant’ compressor protection mode.
The compressor and water spring motor will stop working.
The up fan runs at low speed and the down fan stops running
“E3” will appear on the LCD screen.
Press any key on the control panel; the background light will illuminate for 10 seconds.

WATER-DRAINAGE
1. Manual drainage:
1.1 When the internal water tank is full the unit will stop working and
display will show FL error
1.2 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.
1.3 Place a tray under the water plug.
1.4 Screw off the water plug and unplug the water blocker - water will
drain from the container.
1. Put the water blocker back and screw the water plug back into
place
2. Continuous drainage:
2.1 Screw off the water plug and unplug the water blocker.
2.2 Use a water pipe to connect to the water outlet.
2.3 You can plumb this pipe into your current plumbing system, lead it outside or use a water
pump.
No e: 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.
