1. PREFACE
This manual is designed to provide you with important service information. Be sure to read the
safety precautions prior to servicing the unit.
1.1 Safety Precautions
1 When servicing, set the POWER of the CONTROL PANEL to OFF and unplug the power
cord.
2 Observe the original lead dress. If a short circuit is found, replace all parts which have been
overheated or damaged by the short circuit.
3 After servicing, make an insulation resistance test to prevent the customer‟s exposure to
shock hazards.
1.2 Insulation Resistance Test
1 Unplug the power cord and connect a jumper between 2 pins (black & white).
2 The grounding conductor (green or green & yellow) is to be open.
3 Measure the resistance value with an ohm meter between the jumper lead and each exposed
metallic part on the equipment at all MODES (except POWER OFF).
4 The value should be over 1 MΩ.

electrical shocks or other injury to person or property.
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed:
Your cooler should run on 220-240 Volt AC, 50 Hz current only.
Check the household voltage to ensure it matches the appliance‟s rate specification.
Before operating the product remove it from its packaging and check it is in good condition.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or
similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
DO NOT operate any product with a damaged cord or plug.
DO NOT use an extension cord with this appliance.
DO NOT run power cord under carpeting, or cover with rugs or runners. Arrange the cord
away from areas where it may be tripped over.
Unplug the appliance during filling and cleaning.
Always unplug the appliance from the power source before servicing or removing the unit.
Disconnect the power supply before servicing or cleaning operation.
Remove the power cord from the electrical receptacle by grasping and pulling on the power
cord plug-end only, never from the cord.
DO NOT use the product in areas where gasoline, paint or other flammable goods and
objects are stored.
When using the „‟COOL‟‟ setting, please check the water indicator level to ensure it is above
minimum water level. Operation of this unit on the „‟COOL‟‟ setting on or below minimum
water level could result in damage to the water pump.
DO NOT attempt repair or adjustment to any electrical or mechanical functions of the cooler.
Verify that the voltage power source matches the appliance electrical specifications.
Improper voltage will burn out the blower/fan, oscillating and/or pump motor windings and will
void the warranty.
DO NOT cover the air inlet or outlet on the appliance as this may cause motor damage.

Function Button:
POWER
Press the 'POWER' button to turn the unit on. To turn the unit off, press the button again. The
cooler will start automatically at medium speed. After a few seconds the speed will switch to low.
FAN / SPEED
Press the 'FAN OR SPEED' button repeatedly and the speed will change. The indicator light will
show the selected speed.
COOL
To begin cooling the desired area press the ''COOL‟' button. The indicator light will come on and
the water pump will operate. You will feel the cooler air after the Honeycomb media is completely
wet.
SWING / IONIZER
Press the ''SWING'' button. The indicator light will come on and the louvers will begin to move from
right to left automatically. Manually adjust the horizontal louvers to change vertical airflow.
"IONIZER" feature is used to remove very fine pollutant particles such as dust, pollen, cigarette
smoke, car fumes & aerosol propellants from air.
SLEEP (For CL30XC)
When sleep is selected airflow will randomly vary between High, Medium and Low.
HEAT (For CHL30XC)
Press the HEAT button to turn ON the heater. You can vary the heater from LOW HEAT to HIGH
HEAT, Low and High HEAT is indicated on the control panel, and it changes with the press of
HEAT button. When the heater is turned off by either depressing the HEAT button or POWER
button, the FAN will be always running for 3 min more to cool down the heater.
TIMER
Press the ''TIMER'' button until the indicator light comes on to your desired timer. Once the set
time has passed, the unit will automatically shut off. The Timer function allows you to program the
unit for up to 8 hours of use.
Room Cooling and Humidifying:
When the Water Regulator is set to ''MIN'', the water pump
distributes minimal amount of water to the Honeycomb media. This
result in less water evaporation and reduces cooling effect.
When the Water Regulator is set to ''MAX'', the water pump
distributes the maximum amount of water to the Honeycomb media.
This results in maximum water evaporation and the cooling
performance improves.

Fill Water:
Warning: Unplug from power when refilling.
Open the Water Fill Door located below the Remote Control Holder on the unit. The water tank of
the unit holds up to 30 litres of water.
Water level display window is located on the front of the unit. Refill the water tank when water
level is low. Do not fill water above the Max water level mark. Check water level in the tank before
running the ''COOL'' function. Please be sure water in the tank is always above minimum water

level mark. Running the unit with inadequate water may cause pump failure. If ice is available you
may add ice in the top compartment to enhance the cooling performance.
1.7 CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
Warning:
Before cleaning the unit, switch it to the ''off'' position and remove the plug from the power
socket.
To clean the outside, use a damp cloth to remove dirt and dust.
Never use corrosive elements or any chemicals to clean this product.
When the product is not in use, store the unit in a dry place out of direct sunlight.
Draining and Cleaning the Water Tank:
Turn the power “off” and disconnect the air cooler from the power
supply.
Move the unit to a location where it can be drained. Remove the
rubber plug from the tank and allow the tank to empty.
Once the tank is empty, unlock the latches on both sides and lift off
the cooler top section as shown in the figure and place it vertically
on the floor.
Refill the water tank with clean water and drain it completely.
Clean the water tank with detergent or a damp cloth and rinse it
thoroughly.
Place the unit top carefully on the tank and lock the latches.
Refill the water tank with clean water, up to the maximum level.
The air cooler is now ready to be used. This cleaning process
should be repeated weekly to maintain the integrity of the unit and
to remove particles filtered from the air.
Cleaning the Filter and Honeycomb:
The appliance is supplied with carbon filter & honeycomb cooling media.
Always keep the Carbon filter clean. You can wash the Carbon filter at least twice a year or
whenever you feel necessary.
The carbon filter and honeycomb media are located inside the back panel. Open the back
panel by using a star screw driver to clean or replace the carbon filter or honeycomb media. It
is recommended that the carbon filter and honeycomb media be replaced every year,
depending on use and environment.
Draining the water reservoir and refilling with fresh water at least once a week will greatly
reduce mineral deposits in the pads and help to extend the life of Honeycomb cooling media.
Do not run the unit in COOL mode with stale water in the tank. You must empty the water
tank and refill with fresh water, especially if the tank has not been cleaned in a long time.
The cleaning frequency for the Honeycomb media depends on local air and water conditions.
In areas where the mineral content of water is high, mineral deposits may build up on the
honeycomb cooling media and restrict air flow. Draining the water reservoir and refilling with
fresh water at least once a week will help reduce mineral deposits. If mineral deposits remain
on the Honeycomb media, the media should be removed and washed under fresh water. The
media should be cleaned every two months or sooner, depending on your needs.
For best results allow the honeycomb cooling media to dry after each use by turning off the
cool function 15 minutes before turning the unit off.
