What are the Pinguino
portable air conditioners?
During the summer, you feel comfortable at a temperature of between 75 and 81°F (24 and
27°C) with a relative humidity of about 50%.
An air conditioning unit removes excess moisture and heat from the room where it is located.
Compared with installed models, portable air conditioning units have the advantage that they
can be moved from one room to another in the home or be transported from one building to
another.
Hot air from the room is passed through a
coil cooled by refrigerant gas.
Excess heat and moisture are
removed before the air
is re-emitted into the room.
In single unit models (Pinguino),
a small part of this air is used to
cool the refrigerant gas and
then,when hot and damp,
is discharged outside.

5
The instructions below will enable you to prepare your air conditioning unit for operation as effi-
ciently as possible.
Before use, make sure the air intake and outlet grilles are unobstructed.
NON PERMANENT INSTALLATION
Just a few simple steps and your comfort is
ensured with Pinguino:
•Fit the air exhaust hose in the housing
at the back of the appliance.Insert it as
shown in figure A.
In order to improve the performance of the
appliance in air conditioning and boost
(super-conditioning) modes, you can also fit
the intake hose accessory inits housing in
the back of the appliance as shown in figure
A1.This step is optional.

•Fit the window outlets to the end of
the hose / .
•Place the air conditioning unit near a win-
dow or French window.
•Make sure the air exhaust hose is unob-
structed.

Keep air hoses as short and free of cur-
ves as possible to avoid constrictions.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
Before plugging the appliance into the electrical socket,check that:
•the power supply corresponds to the value indicated on the rating plate on the back of the appliance;
•the socket and electrical circuit are adequate for the appliance;
•the socket matches the plug.If this is not the case,have the plug replaced;
•the socket is adequately grounded.Failure to follow these important safety instructions absolves the manu-
facturer of all liability.
The power cord must be replaced by a qualified professional only.

Sash window
For optimum results:
•If you have a sash window, place the
bracket or according to your
needs,on the window sill,extend the bracket
fully within the window frame,fix the bracket
by using the pin then lower the window onto
the bracket.Insert the window outlet of
the exhaust hose into the slot,
then connect the hose to the air conditioner
(fig.B and B1).

Pendant les mois d’été,les conditions de bien-être sont atteintes avec une température com-
prise entre 75 et 81°F (24°C et 27°C) et avec une humidité relative d’environ 50%.
Le climatiseur est un appareil qui prélève l’humidité et la chaleur de la pièce dans laquelle il est
placé.
Par rapport aux modèles à installation fixe, les climatiseurs portables présentent l’avantage de
pouvoir être déplacés non seulement d’une pièce à l’autre dans la maison mais aussi d’un édifi-
ce à l’autre.
L’air chaud de votre pièce passe, sous l’effet du gaz réfrigérant, à travers une batterie de refroi-
dissement où il cède la chaleur et l’humidité
en excès avant d’être réintroduit
dans la pièce.
Dans les modèles monobloc (Pinguino),
une petite partie de cet air est
utilisée pour refroidir le gaz
réfrigérant ; ensuite,une fois
chaude et humide,elle est
évacuée vers l’extérieur.
Les climatiseurs Pinguino et SuperPinguino
