FOREWORD
Congratulations on purchasing the MovinCool portable air conditioner.
This manual explains how to install and operate the MovinCool Office
Pro 12 and Office Pro 24 portable air conditioning units. Please read
this operation manual thoroughly to familiarize yourself with the fea-
tures of the unit and to ensure years of reliable operation. You may also
find it useful to keep this operation manual on hand for reference.
Components and/or procedures are subject to change without prior
notice.
Definition of Terms
WARNING: Describes precautions that should be observed in
order to prevent injury to the user during installation or unit opera-
tion.
CAUTION: Describes precautions that should be observed in
order to prevent damage to the unit or its components, which may
occur during installation or unit operation if sufficient care is not
taken.
NOTE: Provides additional information that facilitates installation
or unit operation.

GENERAL WARNINGS & CAUTIONS
•All electrical work, if necessary, should only be performed by
qualified electrical personnel. Repair to electrical components by
non-certified technicians may result in personal injury and/or
damage to the unit. All electrical components replaced must be
genuine MovinCool parts, purchased from an authorized reseller.
•The proper electrical outlet for MovinCool units must be equipped
with a UL approved ground-fault breaker to prevent electrical shock
from the unit.
•Because of potential safety hazards under a certain condition, we
strongly recommend against the use of an extension cord. However,
if you still elect to use an extension cord, it is absolutely necessary
that it will be a UL listed, 3-wire grounding type appliance extension
cord, having a 3-blade grounding plug and a 3-slot receptacle that
will plug into the appliance. The marked rating of the extension cord
should be 115 V, 15 A or equivalent.
•The Office Pro 12 is equipped with a ten (10) foot (3 meter) power
cord. The Office Pro 24 is equipped with a six (6) foot (1.8 meter)
power cord. If replacement, fixed location (hard wired) or power
cord lengthening (extension cord) cords are required, contact your
reseller or a qualified electrician for approved replacement meth-
ods.
•Never fold or place heavy objects on the power cord. This could
result in damage to the power cord causing electrical shock or fire.
•Do not place water or any other liquid on the unit. This can cause
damage to the unit and increase the risk of electrical shock.
•Do not sit or stand on the unit.

choosing your installation site. Please review carefully as improper
installation may result in personal injury or damage to the unit.
•Do not use the unit in areas where leakage of flammable gas may
occur.
•Do not use the unit in areas where it will be exposed to rain or
water.
•Do not use the unit in an atmosphere of excessively corrosive gas
or vapor.
•Do not use in areas where the temperature is outside the allowable
operating range.
•Do not install the unit in sloping areas. The unit may move or topple
over even if the casters are set to the LOCKED position.
•Install the unit in areas that can withstand the weight of the unit.
The Office Pro 12 unit weighs approximately 200 lbs (91 kg) and the
Office Pro 24 weighs approximately 245 lbs. (111 kg) (when the
drain tank is full of water).

•The Program RUN LED flashes while a program is running. It is
illuminated continuously when the program mode is activated.
•While a program is running, the program can only be stopped
by pressing the Program RUN button. All other buttons are
inoperable when a program is running.

13
OPERATION (cont.)
Operating Modes
Both Office Pro models operate in two modes, Fan Only and COOL.
When in Fan Only mode, the unit circulates the surrounding air. When in
COOL mode, the compressor is operational and cool air is circulated.
•COOL Mode
Both models will operate in Fan Only mode for approximately 90
seconds before the compressor engages. (Time delay setting is 90
± 15 seconds.)
•Temperature Control
The room temperature thermistor allows the unit to switch automati-
cally between COOL and Fan Only modes. This is dependent upon
inlet air temperature versus SET POINT temperature.
•Fan Mode Control DIP Switch
The Fan Mode Control DIP Switch determines whether the FAN will
continue to operate or stop when the compressor cycles off. (SET
POINT temperature equals inlet air or room temperature.) The unit
has been preset at the factory for continuous fan operation.
•Temperature Scale Display DIP Switch
The Temperature Scale Display DIP Switch changes the
temperature(s) that are displayed to either °C or °F. The unit has
been preset from the factory to display the temperature(s) in °F.
NOTE: If you wish to change the fan mode operation
(COOLOPERATE to COOLSTOP), and/or the Temperature Scale
Display (°F to °C), contact your MovinCool reseller.
