READTHIS USE &CAREGUIDE CAREFULLYAND THOROUGHLY BEFOREINSTALLING AND OPERAT-
ING YOUR AIR CONDITIONER.
RETAINTHIS USE& CARE GUIDE FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.

To prevent injury to the user or other people and property damage,
the following instructions must be followed.
Use this appliance only as described in this Use & Care Guide. As with
any electrical appliance, the instructions aim to cover as many eventuali-
ties as possible. Caution and common sense should be used when operat-
ing and installing this air conditioner.
This appliance has been manufactured to cool and dehumidify domestic
environments and should not be used for other purposes.
The appliance should not be installed where the atmosphere may contain
combustible gases, oil or sulfur, or near heat sources.
Always install the portable air conditioner properly. Incorrect assembly
or installation may cause failure to operate including injury, fire and
electric shock hazards.
Do not place the power cord near a heater. It may cause fire or electric
shock.
Do not use the power cord near flammable gas or combustibles such as
gasoline, benzene, thinner, etc. it may cause explosion or fire.
Do not operate or stop the unit by inserting or pulling out the power
plug. It may cause fire or electric shock.
Do not damage or use an unspecified power cord. It may cause fire or
electric shock.
Do not modify the length of the power cord. It will cause fire or electric
shock due to heat generation.
Use the air conditioner on a single outlet circuit. Do not share the outlet
with other appliances. It may cause circuit failure.
Changing the outlet without making the appropriate wiring changes will
create an unsafe condition that could result in fire or electric shock. Refer
all such work to a licensed and qualified electrician.
WARNING: This appliance must be properly grounded. The power cord
of this appliance is equipped with a three-prong LCDI (Leakage Current
Detection and Interruption) plug. To minimize the risk of electric shock,
use the plug with a standard three-slot grounding wall power outlet. If
power outlet does not include a grounding slot, have a qualified electri-
cian replace the outlet before you use your room air conditioner. Do not
cut or remove the grounding prong from the power plug. if you have
doubt whether the air conditioner is properly grounded, have the wall
receptacle and circuit checked by a qualified electrician.
Do not disassemble or modify this appliance. Doing so may cause failure
and electric shock.

• DO NOT USE EXTENSION CORDS. Do not use an extension cord due to
potential safety hazards. For temporary situations, use only CSA and UL
certified 3-prong grounded extension cords designed and approved spe-
cifically for air conditioners.
• To prevent injury from handling sharp objects, do not touch the metal
parts of the unit when removing the filter.
•Do not block the air inlet or air outlet. It may cause failure of the appli-
ance.
• Always store and transport the air conditioner upright to maintain the
compressor in a proper condition. Prior to installation, allow air condi-
tioner to stand upright for 12 hours. This ensures all lubricating oil has
settled to the bottom of the compressor, avoiding damage to internal
parts,
• Only operate the unit on an even horizontal surface to ensure no water
leaks.
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with
reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience
and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction
concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the
appliance.
•Do not insert the power plug into a wall outlet if either is loose or dam-
aged. It may cause fire and electric shock.
• Unplug the unit if strange sounds, odors or smoke come from it.
• Hold the plug by the head when unplugging the unit. Do not pull on the
cord.
• Unplug the air conditioner if it will not be used for a long period to pre-
vent accidental startup and the possibility of injury.
• Do not place heavy objects on the power cord, and take care so that the
cord will not be damaged.
° Clean the air filters regularly. A contaminated air filter reduces capacity.
° Use a soft cloth to clean. Do not use wax, thinners or a strong detergent.
The appearance of the air conditioner may deteriorate, change color or
develop surface flaws.
• Do not use water to clean inside the air conditioner. Exposure to water
can destroy the insulation, leading to possible electric shock.
° if water enters the product, unplug the power cord from the wall. Leave
unplugged until dry.
° Being exposed to direct airflow for an extended period of time could be
hazardous to your health.

To avoid damage, place the unit in an upright position for at least 12 hours be-
fore initial operation. This ensures all lubricating oil has settled to the bottom of
the compressor, avoiding damage to internal parts.
Fully extend both ends of the exhaust hose approximately 6inches, then screw
on both Hose Adapters onto each
end of the exhaust hose in a
clockwise direction until firmly
secured.
With the top facing up, slide Ex-
haust Hose Adapter into Exhaust
Hose Holder until it is fully seated
to attach hose to air conditioner.
Attach Window Kit Adapter to
Window Exhaust Adapter by
aligning the tabs then slightly turn
clockwise to secure.
Plug the unit into a 120V_60Hz
grounded electrical outlet. DO
NOT USE A REGULAR EXTEN-

1. Select a location near a window and electrical outlet.
2. Position the unit in a fiat, spacious location with a minimum of one foot (30 cm)
between the air outlets and any walls or furniture.
3. Do not operate the unit in extremely moist areas such as a sauna.
WINDOW KIT INSTALLATION
The Window Kit (included) contains three sliding pieces, and can be adjust to fit
most standard vertical and horizontal windows (see Fig. 5 & Fig. 6).
Horizontal Window Vertical
Window
For very wide windows, use all three pieces. The maximum width is58". For narrow
windows, you may have to cut down the end of the piece with the hose attachment
hole. The minimum width is 10". Cut the window kit using a strong pair of scissors or
heavy duty cutting pliers.
Do not cut into the exhaust hole.
EXHAUST HOSE CONNECTION
The exhaust hose must be attached for cooling and dehu-
midification. When installing the exhaust hose, try and
keep it as fiat as possible. The less angles and bends in
the hose, the better the unit will perform. If bending or an
angle is necessary, use single 90 ° angles (Fig. 7). Multiple
bends will decrease performance and efficiency. Make
sure there are no low spots to prevent moisture collection.
Attach window kit adapter to window kit by placing
adapter into exhaust hole. Push forward until it is secured.

tion. When adjusting the direction of the air flow, only place fingers on the left side of Air
Outlet Louvers where tab appears.

On rare occasions, when the temperature or humidity is too high, the air conditioner may
not be able to evaporate all of the water as quickly as needed. All moisture that is unable
to be evaporated is placed in a water tank inside the unit. When the tank is completely full,
an alarm will sound, the compressor will shut off, and the bucket full icon will light up on

Odor development can arise upon first
use and after along period of non-use by
starting in unsuitable areas (e.g. dusty
areas}. Run the unit for 1/2 day. The smell
will dissipate after awhile. In the case of
intense odor development, air the room.
