Cleaning:
◆Dust screen
Remove retaining screw, press down the retainer clips and
pull the screen out. Wash screen with mild detergent and soft brush
or rinse with water.
◆Cooling pad
Unplug the air cooler. Remove the filter screen, then
carefully remove cooling pad from the back of the unit. Scrub pad
carefully with soft brush and rinse with water.
Note: Do not use high pressure water or strong detergents to clean
pad.
◆Water tank
Remove drain cover to drain water from the tank. Remove the
screen and pad. Rinse water tank with clean water. Once the dirty
water has drained refit drain cover and refill with clean water.
Suggestion: Change water everyday to avoid odors.
Thank you, for choosing the SO2000ST Samba Storm
evaporative air cooler.
Please note the appearance of the unit you have purchased
may vary from the one illustrated in this manual. This is due to
continual product development and will not affect the performance of
the unit.
Please read this instruction manual carefully before operating the unit.
The pump circulates water from the base tank and distributes it
evenly onto the cooling pad. The fan draws air from outside and
pulls it through the wet pad. As the hot air passes through the pad, it
is cooled by the evaporation of the water. This process produces
fresh, cool air. The excess water returns to the base tank where it is
re-cycled.

◆Prevent “AC diseases” and enjoy better health
Prolonged exposure in A/C environments is unhealthy. Up to 80% of the air
is re-circulated. This indoor air pollution with a mixture of dust, germs,
bacteria, viruses and allergens can lead to headaches, fatigue, colds, flu
and other illnesses.
90% of sickness is caught indoors!
S.O. Ltd evaporative air coolers can produce 2 million ions per second,
and can significantly improve the quality of the air you breathe and
your health.
◆The ion function also reduces dust actively cleaning the air.
The air cooler has an (neg) - ion generator that discharges negatively
charged ions into the fresh air stream and around the room. Producing up to
2000000 –ions per cubic centimeter the Samba/Soca/Reggae Storm series
energizes, purifies and revitalizes the air make these units the healthy
alternative cooling system and your best choice.

A negative ion is an oxygen molecule with an extra electron. The Samba,
Soca and Reggae Storm air coolers all have –ion generators. When this
feature is used these air coolers supply a steady stream of negatively
charged ions into the airflow. Evaporative air coolers, through the
evaporation of water already produce 100% fresh air, this coupled with the
active oxygen of neg –Ions make these air coolers the Healthy choice for
your air conditioning requirements.z
◆An-ion the element of healthy life
Numerous scientific reports indicate that the negative ion content of
air significantly benefits your health. The –ion content of air found at the
beach, in the forest or a mountain is 1000 times that found in urban areas
and higher still than the air found in the office, home or car. Negative ions
prevent various airborne bacteria and reduce the transmission of allergens.
Many people have experienced exceptional health improvements form
