Description of the device
The primary purpose of the device is room cooling. It further filters
and dehumidifies the air thus creating an agreeable room climate.
In ventilation mode the device also provides the opportunity of air
circulation without cooling effect. In dehumidification mode
moisture is withdrawn from the air.
The device operates fully automatically and thanks to its
microprocessor control features a multitude of further options,
the device can, for instance, be switched on or off automatically
with time delay via the timer function.
Handling the device can be conveniently accomplished via the
control panel at the device or the supplied infrared remote
control.
The device was designed for universal, flexible and
uncomplicated application. Due to its compact dimensions it can
be easily transported and used in all interior spaces.
The air handling unit cools the room air by withdrawing warmth.
The absorbed warmth is emitted to the outside via the exhaust air
hose, cooled air is fed to the installation site by means of a fan.
Accumulating condensate trickles from the evaporator onto the
hot condenser, there it evaporates and then is transported to the
outside via the exhaust air hose.
Excess condensate is dripping from the condenser into a
condensate trap and is there re-fed to the condenser by use of a
paddle wheel, where it evaporates and is discharged along with
the exhaust air flow.
A cooling agent sees to the transport of the absorbed warmth
within the closed refrigerant circuit.

Connecting the exhaust air hose
1. Unscrew the slide at the top of the device.
2. Remove the slide at the top.
3. Extract the exhaust air hose.
4. Connect the exhaust air hose to the air outlet at the rear of the
device.
5. Please follow these steps in reverse order to store the
exhaust air hose.
Do not forget to retighten the screw!
• Only use the supplied hose and fasten the exhaust air hose
and adaptor to the back of the air conditioner.
• Avoid kinks and bends in the exhaust air hose as this will lead
to accumulation of emitted humid air causing the device to
overheat and shut down.
• The hose may be extended from 300 mm to 1500 mm, but
maximum efficiency can only be achieved using the shortest
length.
• The length of the exhaust air hose is especially designed
according to the product specifications. Do not replace or
prolong it with different hoses as this could cause a
malfunction.
Unscrew this screw here.

Adjusting the air vent
• Before using the device, please open the horizontal louver!
• Adjust the louvers to the desired position.
Switch-on of the device
1. Insert the mains plug into a properly secured mains power
socket.
2. Open the horizontal louver.
3. Use the power button (A) to switch the device on.
– The device starts in automatic operation mode (AUTO).
– To prolong the compressor lifetime, wait for at least 3
minutes after switch-off before switching the device back
on.
– The cooling system switches off automatically when the
ambient temperature falls below the set one. The fan,
however, keeps running at the set level. If the ambient
temperature rises above the selected level, the cooling will
switch on again.
Automatic operation
In automatic mode, the device can either cool or ventilate
depending on the ambient temperature and nominal value
settings. The device is preset as follows:
– Default settings in automatic mode:
If the ambient temperature amounts to more than 25°C the
device automatically operates in cooling mode. Default
setting 24°C. During this operation, the following LEDs light
up in green:
– With an ambient temperature of less than or equal to (≤)
25°C the device automatically works in ventilation mode.
The following LEDs light up in green:
–Example:
If you set the nominal value to 24°C the device starts
cooling at 27°C (set value + 3°C). It cools the air down to
25°C (set value + 1°C) and then switches back to
ventilation mode.
