IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
These instructions are not meant to cover every possible condition and
situation that may occur. Please read all instructions before using this
evaporative cooler. Failure to carefully read all instructions may result in
possible electric shock or fire hazard, and will void the manufacturer’s
warranty.
1. Use this evaporative cooler only as instructed in this owner’s manual. Other uses may
cause electric shock, injury or fire.
2. Close supervision is required if this cooler is used near children or pets.
3. To protect against electric shock, do not immerse this cooler or its plug and cord in
water.
4. If the cooler is being transported or will not be in use, disconnect it from the power
supply by pulling on the evaporative cooler’s power cord.
5. Avoid contact with any of the evaporative cooler’s moving parts.
6. Place the evaporative cooler on a level surface.
7. This evaporative cooler is intended to fit into a matching receptacle.
Under no circumstances should the plug be altered in any way. An
improper connection can result in electric shock.
8. If possible, avoid using extension cords with this evaporative cooler. If an extension
cord is absolutely necessary, do not use more than one extension cord to operate more
than one cooler.
9. Do not insert objects or allow fingers to enter into the cooler’s grills, as this may cause
electric shock or bodily injury. Do not block or tamper with the evaporative cooler
while it is in operation.
10. Do not run the power cord under mats or carpeting, and do not cover the power cord
with runners. Arrange the power cord away from room traffic and where it can be
tripped over.
11. Do not operate this evaporative cooler in the presence of flammable substances or
explosives.
12. Do not place the cooler near an open flame or cooking/heating appliances.
13. If the evaporative cooler will not be in use, empty the tank of any remaining water.
14. Always fill the evaporative cooler’s tank with fresh water. Using air fresheners, scented
oils or cleaners is not recommended and can cause damage to the unit’s internal parts.
15. Drain the evaporative cooler’s tank and clean it at least once a week to prevent calcium
deposits and/or mold growth.

16. When using this evaporative cooler in “Cool” mode, make sure the water tank is full or
at least above the minimum water level. Operating the air cooler in “Cool” mode
without sufficient water in the tank can cause damage to the water pump and will void
the manufacturer’s warranty.
17. To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not use this fan with any solid-state speed
control device.
18. This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the
risk of electric shock, this plus is intended to fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the
plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a
qualified electric. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.
19. If the cooler’s plug or power cord is damaged, do not attempt to repair
the components yourself. Please contact Luma Comfort’s customer
service hotline at 1-866-737-6390 or have the unit examined by an
authorized service provider.

evaporative cooler and ensuring that it operates free of defects. Maintain your evaporative
cooler by following these steps:
GENERAL MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
1. Always unplug the evaporative cooler from the power supply before servicing or cleaning.

not use harsh cleaners, gasoline, paint thinner, benzene, etc., as these substances can
damage the evaporative cooler.
3. Thoroughly dry all of the cooler’s parts with a soft cloth before reconnecting the unit to the
power supply.
4. Empty the water tank after the evaporative cooler has been in use. Regular, scheduled
cleaning of the water tank before each use is also recommended.

cleaning. Once all of the different components have been cleaned, place them back into
the unit in this order: water tank, cooling pad and dust filter.

rinse with water. Allow it to thoroughly air
dry before placing it back in the unit.
2. To clean the cooling pad, first remove the
dust filter to expose the pad. Turn the
knob on the pad clockwise and pull it out
from the back of the unit. Rinse it with
