The product shall be operated under the manufacturer specification and not
for any other intended use.
•
Do not attempt to operate the unit with wet hands, this could cause fatal accident.•
When operating the unit with burning equipments, regularly ventilate the
room to avoid oxygen insufficiency.
•
Do not direct the cool air coming out from the air-conditioner panel to face
household heating apparatus as this may affect the working of apparatus such as
the electric kettle, oven etc.
•

without defect. If not, the outdoor unit may collapse and cause danger.
•
Do not splash or direct water to the body of the unit when cleaning it as this may
cause short circuit.
•
Do not use any aerosol or hair sprays near the indoor unit. This chemical
can adhere on heat exchanger fin and blocked the evaporation water flow to
drain pan. The water will drop on tangential fan and cause water splashing
out from indoor unit.
•
Please switch off the unit and turn off the circuit breaker during cleaning, the high-
speed fan inside the unit may cause danger.
•
Turn off the circuit breaker if the unit is not to be operated for a long period.•
Do not climb on the outdoor unit or put objects on it.•
Do not put water container (like vase) on the indoor unit to avoid water
dripping into the unit. Dripping water will damage the insulator inside the unit
and causes short-circuit.
•
Do not place plants directly under the air flow as it is bad for the plants.•
When operating the unit with the door and windows opened, (the room humidity is always above
80%) and with the air deflector facing down or moving automatically for a long period of time,water
will condense on the air deflector and drips down occasionally. This will wet your furniture.Therefore,
do not operate under such condition for a long time.
If the amount of heat in the room is above the cooling or heating capability of the unit (for example:
more people entering the room, using heating equipments and etc.), the preset room temperature
cannot be achieved.
•
•
•Do not connect the power cable with an extension cable or do not plug too many
leads of the other electric appliance into the socket where this cable is plugged.
In addition, wire the cable with some allowances to prevent the cable from stretching.
Not doing so will cause an electrical shock, heat generation or fire.
•Do not bundle the power cable, pull it, put something on it, heat it, process it, or
put it between things. Breakage of the power cable may result.
Use of a damaged cable may cause an electrical shock or a fire.

Adjustment of the conditioned air to the left and right.
Hold the vertical air deflector as shown in the figure and adjust
the conditioned air to the left and right.
If the “ (AUTO SWING)” button is pressed once,
the horizontal air deflector swings up and down. If the
button is pressed again, the deflector stops in its current
position. Several seconds (about 6 seconds) may be
required before the deflector starts to move.
Use the horizontal air deflector within the adjusting range
shown on the right.
When the operation is stopped, the horizontal air deflector
moves and stops at the position where the air outlet
closes.
!
CAUTION
In “Cooling” operation, do not keep the horizontal air
deflector swinging for a long time. Some dew may form
on the horizontal air deflector and dew may drop.
Adjustment of the conditioned air in the upward and downward
directions.
The horizontal air deflector is automatically set to the proper
angle suitable for each operation. The deflector can be swung
up and down continuously and also set to the desired angle

Cleaning and maintenance must be carried out when filter lamp lights. Before cleaning, stop
operation and switch off the power supply.
1. AIR FILTER
Clean the Pre-filter, as it removes dust inside the room. In case the Pre-filter is full of dust, the air flow
will decrease and the cooling capacity will be reduced. Further, noise may occur. Be sure to clean the
Pre-filter following the procedure below.
!
CAUTION
1
Open the front panel and remove the Pre-filter
Gently lift and remove the air purifying filters
from the air purifying filter frame.
2
Vacuum dust from the Pre-filter and air
purifying filter using vacuum cleaner. If there is
too much dust, rinse under running tap water
and gently brush it with soft bristle brush. Allow
filters to dry in shade.
3
Re-insert the air purifying filter to the filter
frame. Set the Pre-filter with “FRONT” mark
facing front, and slot them into the original
state.
After attaching the Pre-filters, push the front
panel at three arrow portions as shown in
figure and close it.
!
CAUTION
Do not wash with hot water at more than 40°C. The filters may shrink.
When washing it, shake off moisture completely and dry it in the shade; do not expose it directly to
the sun. The filters may shrink.
Do not use detergent on the air purifying filter as some detergent may deteriorate the air purifying
filter electrostatic performance.
PROCEDURE
NOTE:
Air purifying filter should be cleaned every month or sooner if noticeable loading occurs. When
used overtime, it may loose its deodorizing function. For maximum performance, it is recommended
to replace it every 1 year depending on application requirements.
