THANK YOU
USER TIPS
Congratulations on your purchase of this Honeywell Portable Air Conditioner.
Regarding the information pertaining to the installation, handling, servicing, cleaning and disposal
of the appliance, please refer to the below paragraph of the manual.
Portable Air Conditioners are ideal for spot cooling. The compressor, condenser and evaporator are
housed in a compact unit. The air is dehumidified and cooled while a flexible exhaust hose sends
heat outside. The air conditioner includes a window venting kit.
No permanent installation is needed. The unit is easy to move from room to room and offers a truly
flexible air conditioning solution.
Auto Evaporation System - The unit automatically evaporates the condensate through the exhaust
hose. There is no need to empty the drainage tank except in very humid conditions. Read and follow
the instructions carefully.
To ensure optimal efficiency of the product, keep doors and windows closed when it is used as an air
conditioner or dehumidifier. If the product is being used with the fan function only, an open window
could improve air circulation.
EN
Important:
Before installing the unit, place it UPRIGHT for 1 hour before use to allow the refrigerant to stabilize.
Manually adjust the air vent located at the top of the unit to adjust the direction of air flow.
Follow installation instructions to set up the unit.
Plug the unit into a properly grounded circuit. DO NOT plug into an extension cord.

INSTALLATION (CONTINUED)
IMPORTANT:
Do not replace or lengthen the exhaust hose as this could cause the unit to malfunction.
The supplied exhaust hose has a diameter of 5.9 inches (15 cm) and can be extended from
10.6 inches to 59 inches (27 cm to 150 cm).
Do not bend (to the extent shown below) the exhaust hose. A bent hose will block exhaust air and
cause the unit to malfunction or shut-off.
Make sure the back of the unit is at least 50 cm / 20 inches away from the wall. Do not place the
unit in front of curtains or drapes as this could obstruct the airflow.

WARNING: Any warranties included with this product will be voided if an extra extension hose is
added to the originally provided installation kit or if the installation is performed differently than the
manufacturer's instructions, without proper consultation. Please contact Customer Support for help
with installation procedures if needed.

While using the unit in dehumidifier mode, continuous
drainage is recommended.
IMPORTANT: The water cannot be drained using the continuous drain option in heating mode.
In Heating mode, the internal water tank collects condensation faster and may require more frequent
emptying of the tank in more humid rooms. It is recommended to use the heating mode in a room
with 50 % humidity or lower. Avoid operating moisture-creating p roducts or appliances such as a
humidifier or a kettle when using the unit in heating mode.
