THANK YOU
r.Congratulations on your purchase of this versatile Honeywell Portable Air Conditioner.
Honeywell Portable Air Conditioners are ideal for spot cooling. The compressor, condenser
and evaporator are housed in a compact unit. The air is filtered, dehumidified and cooled while
a flexible air outlet 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 air
outlet hose. There is no need to empty the drainage tank except in very high humidity conditions.
This Honeywell model MM14CHCS is equipped with a built-in Heat Pump, This efficient
technology allowed the MM14CHCS to convert cooling to heating for year around comfort at the
touch of a button or from the included remote control.
Read and follow the instructions carefully.

USER TIPS
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.
Important : Before installing the unit, place it UPRIGHT for 20 minutes
before use to allow the refrigerant to stabilize.
•Follow installation instructions to set up the unit.
•Plug the unit into a properly grounded circuit.

Ensure proper fit on both ends.
Adjust the window bracket as per width or height of your window and insert the plastic
pins to fix at the desired position.
Note : Do not install the window
bracket to your window. This step is
required only to adjust it to the

The supplied exhaust hose can be extended from 12 inches (1 foot) to 47 inches
(3.9 feet).
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.
The length of the exhaust hose is determined by the product specifications. Do not
replace or lengthen it as this could cause the unit to malfunction.
Make sure the back of the unit is at least 20 inches away from a wall.
Do not place the unit in front of curtains or drapes as this could obstruct the
airflow.

After switching the air conditioner off, you must wait 3 minutes before switching it back on again.
Power Control
The Power Control turns the unit on and off.
Mode Control
3 settings: Cool, Dehumidify and Fan
A light will indicate which setting is currently being used.
• Cooling Mode
The unit works as an air conditioner. Adjust fan speed and air

setting range is 61°F~89°F.
• Dehumidifying Mode
Air is dehumidified as it passes through the unit, without being in
full cooling mode. If room temperature is higher than 77°F
fan speed can be adjusted; otherwise fan speed is preset "LOW".
Note : If the unit will be used mainly as a dehumidifier, do not
connect the exhaust hose and let the warm air return in the
room. Continuous drainage is then necessary and more
efficient (refer page 14, Continuous Draining).
• Fan Mode
For air circulation without cooling.
• Heating Mode
When heating mode is selected the indicator light will shine.
Heating is activated only when the ambient temperature is
below 25°C . In this mode, the desired temperature can be set
