USING AIR REFRIGERATOR FUNCTION
The air cooler is delivered with 2 ice packs to make a roll. One block in the freezer
while the second is used in the tank of the device.
Place the icing blocks in the freezer. After 24H, remove the water tank and place
the frozen block in the tank. Add water without exceeding the MAX mark.
The system stores cold and slowly absorbs the warmer recovered water.
The cooler system refreshes the water in the tank to make it lower than the
environment. So, the tank filled with water and ice allows the air cooler to blow
cooler air.
Ice Crystal Box
1. The ice crystal box is inside the foam packaging at the bottom of the box.
2. Put the appropriate amount of water into the ice crystal box.
3. Tighten the lid and place it into a freezer until completely frozen.
4. Add to Water Tank as required.
5. Two ice crystal boxes have been included so that you can add ice
continuously.
Adding Water:
1. Pull out the water tank from the back of the machine until two thirds of the
tank is exposed.
2. Add only clean tap water to the water tank.
3. Do NOT add water above the ‘max’ lien of the water tank. The water should
also NEVER be lower than the ‘min’ line while using the cool air
humidification function.
Important notes
● Add water frequently. Add clean water before using. Immediately add water
when the water shortage warning comes on.
● Put one ice crystal box in the freezer. Place a pre-frozen one into the water
tank for a cool air effect.
12

● Humidify correctly. The cooling effects are best when adding cool or cold
water.
● The water in the tank may appear yellow at the beginning of the
humidification process, and will disappear automatically after a short use.
● There may be a light vibration at the start of the humidification process, or
when there is a water shortage. Always pay attention to any warning lights.
● Move the machine gently to avoid water spillage.
● Maintain an acceptable water level to avoid damaging the water pump. This
can easily be damaged when in ‘dry’ or ‘water shortage’ mode.
● Always pay close attention to the water tank line of the water box.
