RA-18JF is a model for cooling only.
RA-18JDF is a model for cooling and dehumidifying. RA-18JF 只具備冷卻功能。
RA-18JDF 具備冷卻與除濕功能。
HORIZONTAL DEFLECTORS
COOL-DRY SWITCH(RA-18KDF&RA-18HDF)
When it is not too hot but humid, “DRY”(Dehumidifying )
operation is suitable. This room air conditioner can remove
moisture from the room air without lowering the
temperature by setting “COOL-DRY” switch to “DRY”.
If the room temperature is lowered to the point set by the
temperature dial, both the compressor and the fan will stop
automatically and when the room temperature rises back,
both the compressor and the fan will re-start automatically.
NOTE
● For maximum cooling and most efficient operation, set
exhaust lever to “CLOSE”.
● When you want to feel cool, make sure that the fans
are running, and set the OPERATION switch to
“HI-COOL”, “MED-COOL” or “LO-COOL”.
● Wait 3 minutes before resetting to
cooling/dehumidifying operation.
● When the compressor stops by turning the
TEMPERATURE dial counterclockwise in cooling or
dehumidifying operation, wait 3 minutes before turning
it clockwise to restart the compressor.
“COOL-DRY”冷除開關(RA-18KDF 和 RA-18HDF)
不太熱但潮濕的季節最適合 DRY(除濕)動作。如果
COOL-DRY(冷•乾)開關被設定於 DRY(乾)的位置的話,冷氣機
的除濕動作中溫度不會降低。
如果室溫降到溫度調節度盤所設定的溫度的話,壓縮機和風
扇都自動停止。如果室溫再度上昇, 壓縮機和風扇就自動再
開動。
附 註
● 如希望得到最大冷效能,就請將排氣桿設定於”CLOSE”(關
閉)的位置。
● 要開放冷氣時請先開動風扇,然後將 OPERATION(操作開
關)設定於”HI-COOL”，”MED-COOL”或”LO-COOL”。
● 開動機器後請稍後 3 分鐘，再將 OPERATION(操作開關)
設定於”HI-COOL”，”MED-COOL”，”LO-COOL”或”DRY”。
● 在冷卻動作或除濕動作中如將溫度調節度盤反時針方向
轉動而停止壓縮機，就請等候 3 分鐘後再將溫度調節度盤
向順時針方向轉動，使壓縮機再開動。

AUTO SWEEP SWITCH
To operate Auto Sweep, move theAUTO
SWEEP switch to “ON”. This starts the
Vertical Deflectors sweeping from left to
right across the room for better
distribution. The deflectors can be
stopped at any position by switching the
Auto Sweep switch “OFF” when
Deflectors are at desired position.
自動搖擺開關
要開自動搖擺動作時請將 AUTO SWEEP(自動
搖擺)開關設定於 ON(接通)的位置。這樣垂
直風向調整板開動，使室內空氣由左邊吹到
右邊以幫助冷氣平均分佈。將自動搖擺開關
設定於 OFF(斷開)時可在任意位置停止風
向調整板。

the room. The air exhaust lever should be
normally kept in PUSH(CLOSE) position
during cooling operation and in the case
of typhoon.

AIR CLEANING FILTER
Air cleaning filter is washable and reusable up to
20 times by using vacuum cleaner or rinse with
running tap water. Air cleaning filter should be
cleaned every month or sooner if noticeable
loading occurs. When use overtime, it may lose its
deodorizing function. For maximum performance,
it is recommended to replace it every 3-6 months
depending on application requirement. To install o
r
replace it, remove the air filter at first, please refer
to the AIR FILTER item in the Maintenance section
for the way to remove the air filter.
The number for this air cleaning filter in RA-18KF
and RA-18KDF is <SPX-CFH8W>, the number for
this air cleaning filter in RA-18HF and RA-18HDF
is <SPX-CFH4W>, please use this number for
ordering when you want to renew it.
空氣清淨濾網
用吸塵機或清水將空氣清淨濾網清洗，它
可被再用多達二十次。空氣清淨濾網應每
個月或當灰塵累積時清洗。如果使用過
期，它有可能失去除臭功能。每 3~6 個月
更換空氣清淨濾網一次或視使用需求而
定，以達到最佳功效。要安裝或更換空氣
清淨濾網，必須先拆除空氣隔濾網，請參
考保養章節內之空氣隔濾網項目以取得拆
除方法。
RA-18KF 和 RA-18KDF 空氣清淨濾網型號為
<SPX-CFH8W>,RA-18HF 和 RA-18HDF 空氣清
淨濾網型號為<SPX-CFH4W>,更換時請使用
此型號向經銷店購買。

Notes on operation:
● The room air conditioner operates continuously by setting
the Temperature Dial to “TEST”. Do not set this dial to
“TEST” for the ordinary operation.
● At the dehumidifying operation, this room air conditioner
should not be used when the room air conditioner is below
18℃(64℉). If it is used under this condition, frost will settle
on the evaporator and efficiency falls.
(RA-18KDF&RA-18HDF)
● In cooling operation, please refrain from setting horizontal
and vertical air deflectors at positions beyond the angle
range prescribed in figure below for a long time in moist
day. If not, dew will grow on the deflectors and front
cover ,and drop in the worst case.
● Operating temperature range: (cooling)
Indoor side: 21℃(70℉)D.B.~32℃(90℉)D.B.
outdoor side: 21℃(70℉)D.B.~43℃(109℉)D.B.
● In quiet operation or stopping the running, slight flowing
noise of the refrigerant in the refrigeration cycle is heard
occasionally, but this noise is not abnormal for operation.
● The odor will possibly be emitted from the room air
conditioner because the various odor, emitted by smoke,
foodstuff, cosmetics and so on, sticks to it. So please clean
the air filter and the evaporator at the beginning of the
season to reduce the odor.
運轉注意事項
:
● 如把溫度調整鈕設定於 TEST(試驗)的位置，冷氣機會連
續運轉。對於日常的使用目的請不要把調整鈕設定於
TEST 的位置。
● 當室溫低於攝氏 18 度(華氏 64 度)時，這冷氣機不可實
行除濕操作。如果在這狀態下實行除濕操作的話，蒸發
器上會結霜，效率也因而降低。(RA-18KDF 和 RA-18HDF)
● 天氣潮濕時，在冷卻動作期間請勿使水平及垂直風向調
整板長時間放置於下圖規定之角度範圍以外，因為這樣
風向調整板及前面蓋上會結露而水滴滴下來。
● 使用溫度範圍: (冷房時)
室內側: 21℃(70℉)D.B.~32℃(90℉)D.B.
室外側: 21℃(70℉)D.B.~43℃(109℉)D.B.
● 靜運轉時或停止運轉時，有時會聽到冷凍劑在機內流動
的聲音，但這不算是機器有任何的毛病。
● 這冷氣機可能發出臭味，因為煙霧、食物、化妝品等所
發出的各種臭氣附著在機器上。所以每當季節開頭時期
如清理過濾網及蒸發器，就可以減少臭味。

Maintenance 保養
ALWAYS TURN OFF AND UNPLUG BEFORE ANY
CLEANING OR MAINTENANCE TO ENSURE SAFETY.
Caution: 注意:
AIR FILTER
If the air filter is clogged with dust,
the air flow volume will decrease
and result in poor cooling or
dehumidifying performance, and
increase operation noise. Be sure
to clean the air filter about every
20 days.
①Remove the suction grille by
pulling at both bottom corners
and then lift up slightly before
pull downward to unhook the
suction grille.
②Lift and unhook the bottom of
the air filter and remove it.
③Remove dust from filter by
using a vacuum cleaner. If the
filter is very dirty, wash it with
detergent and rinse properly
with water. Dry it with soft cloth
and do not expose it to heat or
under direct sunlight.
④Install the filter by fitting the top
hooks and then hook the
bottom of the filter.
⑤
A
ttach the suction grille back to
its place by hooking at the top
side to the front cover, then
gently push at both bottom
corner.
清掃之前請務必關掉操作開關與拔掉電源插頭，以確保
安全。
空氣隔濾網
若空氣隔濾網沾滿灰塵，吹出風量
將減少而造成冷卻與除濕功能之降
低，及增大運轉噪音。請確保每 20
天清理隔濾網一次。
①在吸氣柵的兩邊下端一拉，然後
稍微提起吸氣柵直至將吸氣柵取
出。
②提起空氣隔濾網下端後把它拿
出。
③用吸塵機清除網上的灰塵。若隔
濾網太髒，用少許清潔劑清洗及
用水完全洗淨，用柔軟的布將隔
濾網擦乾，不可接觸高溫或受陽
光直曬。
④把隔濾網裝回上端與下端的架鉤
上。
⑤把吸氣柵上端插入前面蓋上，再
輕輕把吸氣柵下端左右一按以關
上吸氣柵。

注意:
● 不可用 40℃以上的水來清洗。
● 在隔濾網拿掉下，不可操作冷氣機。
● Do not use hot water above 40℃for cleaning the
filter.
● Do not operate the air conditioner with the filter
removed.
Caution:
FRONT COVER AND SUCTION
GRILLE
Clean the front cover and suction grille
with a soft dry cloth. When it is

cloth.
①Pull the suction grille at both bottom
corner and release it.
②Lift up the suction grille slightly.
③Remove the suction grille by pulling
downward to release it from the
hook hole located at the top side.
前面蓋與吸氣柵
請用柔軟乾布擦抹前面蓋。如果它
太髒，請用沾上溫水及中性洗潔劑
的軟布擦拭，然後用柔軟的乾布完
全抹乾。
①在吸氣柵下端左右角一拉後放
開。
②稍微提起吸氣柵。
③稍微在吸氣柵上端的架鉤向內一
推後拆出它。
注意:
● 請勿用 50℃以上的熱水、化學劑或刷子來清洗
前面蓋及吸氣柵，因為它們將會損壞塑膠表面。
● Never use hot water above 50℃, erosive chemicals o
r
brush to clean the front cover and suction grille
because they will damage the plastic surface.
Caution:

Drain Pan 排水盤
CONDENSED WATER DRAINAGE
This air conditioner employs a “turbo fan
splashing ring” which is designed to
splash the condensed water on the
condenser surface for maximum cooling
efficiency, thus producing a splashing
sound.
If you are uncomfortable with the sound,
you can install an outside drainage by
using the following procedure which may,
however, cause a small loss of
performance.
①Remove the rubber plug from the base
pan.
②Install the drainage pan by using 2
pieces of screws( provided) at the
cabinet.
③Connect the drainage pan with the drain
hose.( Drain hose or tubing can be
purchased locally to satisfy your
particular needs. Drain hose inner
diameter size should be around Ø13mm
or 1/2 inch.)
④Slide the air conditioner unit back into
the cabinet.
結露排水管
這冷氣機應用”快速扇噴射環”專為
潑在冷凝器的表面的結露水以達到
最高冷卻效率所設計，因此而發出
潑水聲。
如果潑水聲讓你感到不適，請依照
以下步驟利用戶外排水方式，但效
率將會降低。
①把底盤的橡膠塞子除去。
②用兩枚螺絲(隨機供給)把排水盤
鎖在機箱上。
③將排水盤連接於排水管(排水管
可在本地購買以滿足各要求。排
水管內徑應為 13mm 或半寸左
右)。
④將機體置放回機箱裏。
