Honeycomb Cooling Media
Evaporative Air Cooling Mechanism
Warm and
dry air
Cold and
humid air
Evaporative air cooling is the natural way of cooling, similar to a breeze blowing across a lake. This
breeze drops the temperature and has a relaxing cooling effect.
The evaporative air cooler cools the air by means of the evaporation of water. When water
evaporates into the air, the result is a mixture of air and water molecules. This chemical change
requires heat which is taken from the water molecules, resulting in cooler air propelled from the
unit.
NATURAL ENERG Y EFFICIENT COOLING ..

NOTE

USER TIPS
The recommended maximum relative humidity level is 60% or
less, which allows a noticeable temperature decrease. The
temperature decrease will be greater in drier climates because
higher evaporation occurs when the humidity is low.
The evaporative air cooler should not be used in enclosed
spaces. It must be kept level and there must be water in the
water tank. The room should have doors and windows opened
to allow free air flow. The evaporative air cooler works best
when placed near an open window, so that outside air is drawn
into the evaporative air cooler, the air circulates in the room,
then exits via the door. The maximum cooling effect is felt
when a person is in the flow of air coming out of the evaporative
air cooler.
The evaporative air cooler can also be used to humidify dry air
during cool weather. To be used for humidification the
windows and doors should be closed to allow the humidified
air to accumulate. The evaporative air cooler is not an air
conditioner as it does not use a compressor or refrigerant gas.
It should not be expected to cool as efficiently as a refrigerated
air conditioner.
When the product is used for the first time the Honeycomb
cooling media will have an odour which will dissipate in a week
or so of initial use.

be repeated weekly to maintain the integrity of the unit and to remove particles
filtered from the air.
Once the tank is clean, refill the water tank. The unit is now ready to be used
again.
Before cleaning the unit, switch it to the ''off'' position and remove the plug from
the power socket.

CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
CLEANING THE HONEYCOMB FILTER
Turn off the unit, and unplug the power cord from wall outlet.
Rotate the unit facing the back panel, and locate the Rear Grill Removal Screws (refer page
7., No. 17). Remove both the screws with a screw driver.
Pull the rear grill panel upwards, untill it is completely removed.
Now, the Honeycomb filter can be seen. Clean the filter with clean cloth to remove all the dust
& dirt particles.
Once, the cleaning has been performed, assemble the unit back in the same fashion as
described above.
The appliance is supplied with a honeycomb cooling media filter.cooling media.
Always keep the Honeycomb media clean. Wash the filter at least twice a year or as necessary.
Draining the water tank and refilling it with fresh water atleast once a week will greatly reduce
mineral deposits in thepads and help extend the life of the honeycomb coolingmedia.
Do not run the unit in COOL mode with stale water in the tank.It is recommended to empty the
tank and refill it with freshwater, if the water has been standing inside the tank for an extended
period of time.
Cleaning frequency depends on local air and waterconditions. For example, in areas where
mineral content ofthe water is high, deposits may build up in the honeycombcooling media,
restricting air flow. In this case, it is recommended to clean the honeycomb cooling media every
twomonths.
For best results, allow the honeycomb cooling media to dryafter each use by turning off the cool
function 15 minutesbefore turning the unit off.
