position for at least 2 hours before use.
Use only in the upright position on a at
level surface and at least 50 cm from any
objects.

During operation, water will collect in the
bottom tank of the air conditioner. Be
careful when moving the unit to prevent
water from spilling.
Electrical Safety
Ensure the appliance has been installed
in accordance with national wiring
regulations.
Electrical Safety (cont.)
Caution! Before connecting the electrical
power cord to a power outlet, check that
the air conditioner voltage as shown on
the rating label on the air conditioner is
the same as your power supply. Ensure
the power supply is correctly earthed and
rated.
Plug the air conditioner directly into a
properly installed power outlet. Never
use an extension cord, double adaptor
or multi-power outlet board to run this air
conditioner.
Do not pull the air conditioner along by
the power cord or place the power cord
near a source of heat. Always unroll the
power cord completely before use.
If the power supply cord is damaged it
must be replaced by the manufacturer,
a service agent or similarly qualied
persons in order to avoid a hazard.
Switch off and unplug when not in use.
Do not use in humid environments such
as bathrooms, laundries or other steamy

Air conditioner location
Place the air conditioner on a rm, at
surface. The minimum distance between
the air conditioner and any walls or
objects is 50 cm.
Installing the Exhaust Hose
Step 1: Fit both Hose end connectors to
the Exhaust hose.
INSTALLATION
Note! Do not use extension pieces for
the Exhaust hose as this will reduce
performance and possibly result in
damage to the air conditioner.
Step 2: Fit the Exhaust hose to the
Exhaust outlet at the rear of the air
conditioner.
Step 3: Open a window and t the
Window kit. Extend the attachments as
required and lock them in place with the
screw provided. The Window kit can be
installed horizontally or vertically, to suit
your window type.
Important! Ensure the outlet is not
obstructed.

Step 4: Fit the Exhaust hose to the
Window kit.
Note! Keep the Exhaust hose as short
and straight as possible to maximise the
cooling potential.
Important! Hot moist air will be emitted
outside through the Exhaust hose. It is
critical to the performance of the unit that
all of the exhaust air is removed from the
space being cooled.
Air deector
The Air deection louvres can be set to
a desired position manually. Keep the
vanes fully open during operation.

REMOTE CONTROL
Preparation Before Operation
Remove the battery cover and insert new
batteries (2x AAA), making sure the +and
-match the compartment markings.
During Operation
If the remote control will not operate the
air conditioner, the batteries may need to
be replaced.
Remove the batteries and replace with
new ones. If this does not solve the
problem contact your nearest service
centre for advice.
Note! The air conditioner must be
plugged in and switched on for the remote
control to operate the air conditioner. To
use, point at the front panel and press
the remote button. The air conditioner will
“beep” when signal has been received.
If there is no beep, press the remote
button again, ensuring it is within range (6
metres) of the air conditioner.
Note! If there are two of the same air
conditioners installed, they cannot be
controlled separately. When you use a
remote, it will operate all air conditioners
within signal range
Care of your Remote Control
Don’t let the remote control drop onto
hard surfaces or be subjected to sudden
shocks of any form. The warranty does
not cover misuse or accidental damage.
Don’t place the remote control in direct
sunlight, or near extremes of temperature.
Don’t allow the remote control to get wet.
Don’t place near strong electromagnetic
waves.
Don’t mix old and new batteries!
If the remote control will not be used for a
long time, remove the batteries to avoid
corrosion.

Starting the air conditioner
Step 1: Plug into the mains power outlet
and switch on.
Step 2: Press the ON/OFF button on the
control panel or remote control.
Mode selection
Step 3: Press the MODE button on the
control panel or the remote control to
select the operating mode.
Cool mode - refrigerated cooling
Dry mode - Dehumidication, for
extracting moisture from the air.
Auto mode - automatically selects the
operating mode based on ambient
conditions.
Cool mode
Step 4: In Cool mode press the UP and
DOWN buttons to set the thermostat
room temperature in 1°C increments.
The thermostat can be set between 16°C
- 31°C. Cooling will only occur if the set
temperature is less than the ambient
room temperature.
Note! Do not set the cooling temperature
too low as this will consume more
power. 24°C is the recommended set
temperature.
Note! In Cool mode the fan will continue
to operate even if the compressor has
turned off.
Step 5: Press the SPEED button to
adjust the fan speeds between low,
medium and high.
Auto mode
In Auto mode, the air conditioner will
automatically select the operating mode
based on the ambient temperature at the
instance when Auto mode is selected.
The operating mode is selected based on
the following conditions.
Ambient Temperature Mode
T < 23°C Fan
23°C ≤ T < 26°C Dry
T ≥ 26°C Cool
Note! The air conditioner will not change
between operating modes. All mode
changes must be made by the user.
Important! During Cool and Dry modes,
water will collect in the air conditioner’s
tank. This water is re-circulated, with
some being exhausted out with the hot
air, but will slowly ll up the tank. This
occurs more quickly in humid conditions.
If the tank should ll, the air conditioner
will shut down and display the water full
error code (see Troubleshooting). The
air conditioner cannot be restarted until
the water tank is drained. Refer to the
Maintenance section for draining the tank
should this occur.
