•Never operate this appliance if the cord or plug is damaged. Ensure the
power cord is not stretched or exposed to sharp objects/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 authorised service representative. Failure to comply could
result in a voided warranty.
•Do not use the appliance for any purpose other than its intended use.
•The air conditioner unit must always be stored and transported upright,
otherwise irreparable damage may be caused to the compressor; if in
doubt we suggest waiting at least 24 hours before starting the unit.
•Avoid restarting the air conditioning unit unless 3 minutes have passed since
being turned off. This prevents damage to the compressor.

•The appliance must be placed in a room without sources of ignition (for
example:open flames, an operating gas appliance or an operating electric
heater).
•R290 refrigerant gas complies with European
environmental directives.
•R290 has a low GWP (Global Warming
Potential) of 3.
•The air conditioner contains about 210 g of
R290 refrigerant gas.
•Do not use or store in an unventilated space
with an area smaller than 11m2per unit.
•The room must be such as to prevent
stagnation of possible leaks of refrigerant gas
as there could be a danger of fire or explosion
hazard should the refrigerant come into contact
with electric heaters, stoves or other sources of
ignition.
•Refrigerant gas may be odourless.
•Do not use the product and contact the retailer for advice, if damage has
occurred to the unit which may have compromised the refrigerant system.
•Any repairs or maintenance must only be carried out on the unit by a suitably
qualified engineer. Before opening and servicing the unit the authorized
engineer must be in possession of a copy of the manufacturer’s service
manual and must follow the safety information contained within it to ensure
all hazards are minimized.
•The refrigerant system should not be perforated or punctured.
Energy Saving and Unit Safety Protection 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 50cm.
•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 start up set the fan speed to maximum and the thermostat to 5
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 35oC.

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. Attach the fishtail connector to the end of the hose, by
extending the end of the hose and twisting the fishtail
adaptor until it is firmly attached (At least 3 full rotations)
2. Extend the opposite end of the hose and screw into the
exhaust connector (At least 3 full turns)
3. Push the Exhaust Connector onto the Exhaust outlet on the
rear of the unit
4. Make sure the unit is upright and there are no obstructions to the
air inlets and outlet grills.
INSTALLATION OF WINDOW KIT.
The window kit (slide bar and fishtail) can be used with sliding windows and doors. For other types of
window, the fishtail should be used on its own.
1. Partially open the window and then fix the
window kit to the window.
2. Fix the fishtail adaptor into the
opening on the slide bar
3. Fix the exhaust connector on the
opposite end of the exhaust hose to
the exhaust outlet on the rear of the
air conditioner.

NOTES:
•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.
•The fish tail adaptor can be used without the slide bar with most windows / doors.
•When using the air conditioner ensure that the opening left around the fishtail is as small as
possible as the cooling will be less efficient.
•The best form of installation is through a wall duct. By properly venting you expel hot air from your
room while efficiently cooling it.
•Your air conditioner should be used without the vent pipe in dry mode. When using dry mode
ensure that an external water tank is used, monitored and regularly emptied before overflowing.
Permanent plumbing can be also installed for dry mode or an external uplift water pump can be set
up for unattended use.
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
The length of the soft hose extends from approximately 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.

working. If the copper coil temperature reaches < 2⁰C for over 20 seconds. When the copper coil
temperature increases to >8⁰C, the protection will be stopped.
WATER-FULL PROTECTION:
When the water level in the internal water tank reaches the maximum level, the unit will sound an alarm
and the tank full light will illuminate. Please drain the water from the internal water tank by removing the
rubber stopper.
COMPRESSOR DELAY-PROTECTION
The compressor runs a 3 minute delay protection function.
COMPRESSOR PROTECTION
In cooling and dry modes, if the temperature difference between the coil temperature and room
temperature is less than 3⁰C, for more than 30 minutes, the machine will enter the ‘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

EMPTYING THE INTERNAL WATER TANK
MANUAL DRAINAGE:
When the internal water tank is full the unit will stop working and the
tank full light will illuminate. Turn off the unit and unplug. Try not to
move the unit abruptly as this may cause the water in the internal tank
to spill out. Place a tray under the rubber stopper or place the unit in
a drainage area.
Remove the rubber stopper –water will drain from the internal tank.
Put the rubber stopper back into place.
CONTINUOUS DRAINAGE:
Remove the rubber stopper from the continuous drainage port
Connect a water pipe to the water outlet. You can plumb this pipe into your current plumbing
system, lead it outside and use gravity fall 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.
