THANK YOU

Congratulations on your purchase of this versatile Honeywell Evaporative Air Cooler. For
optimum cooling from your cooler, fill the water tank to maximum level and load ice inside
the ice compartment before you turn on your air cooler.
Cooler Location (Important - Please Read!)
Place the cooler in front of an open door or window. Ensure that there is adequate cross -
ventilation in the room by leaving a door or window open opposite the cooler.
Following these guideline will ensure your cooler will work as effectively as possible.
Not an Air Conditioner (Important - Please Read!)
The evaporative air cooler is not an air conditioner as it does not use a compressor or refrig-
erant gas. It should not be expected to cool as efficiently as a refrigerated air conditioner.

Energy efficient, No compressor
Honeywell Evaporative Air Coolers are built to maximize energy efficiency and keep costs low.
Warm air is drawn into the cooler through a dust and odor-reducing carbon filter and enters the
Honeycomb Cooling Media. Water pumped from the tank pours over the honeycomb media. As
the warm air passes through the media, the water absorbs the heat, naturally cooling and humidi-
fying the air. A fan propels the cooled air out into the room. This no-compressor system cools
naturally, efficiently and inexpensively.

USER TIPS
Room with open windows & door
(RECOMMENDED)
Room with closed windows & door
(NOT-RECOMMENDED)
When the product is used for the first time the Honeycomb Cooling Media will have an odor
which will dissipate in a week or so of initial use.
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.

To begin cooling the desired area, turn the knob to the ON
position. The pump starts operating after turning the knob to
this postion. You will feel cooler air after the Honeycomb
media is completely wet.
The unit turns ON when the knob is changed to any of the
speed levels. This unit is provided with four options to vary the
speed of the fan. OFF -- H (High) -- M (Medium) -- L (Low)
Switch the knob between these 4 options to vary the speed of
the fan. You can feel the change in airflow as you switch
between these options.
