Electrical Safety
THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE PLUGGED INTO AN EARTHED SOCKET
•Before switching on, make sure that the voltage of your electricity supply is the
same as that indicated on the rating plate. This product is designed to operate
on 220 –240V AC; 50Hz. Connection to any other power source may damage the
unit.
•This product may be fitted with a non rewireable plug. If it is necessary to
change the fuse in the plug, the fuse cover must be refitted. If the fuse cover
becomes lost or damaged, the plug must not be used until a suitable
replacement is obtained.
•If the plug has to be changed because it is not suitable for your socket, or
becomes damaged in any way, it should be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted.
This should be carried out by a qualified electrician. The plug removed must be
disposed of safely, as insertion into a 13 Amp socket is likely to cause an
electrical hazard.

Exhausting Hot Air
In the COOL mode the appliance must be placed close to a window
or opening so that the warm exhaust air can be ducted from outside.
First position the unit on a flat floor and make sure there is a
minimum of a 45cm (18inch) clearance around the unit and ensure
this is within the vicinity of a plug socket.
1. Extend either side of the hose (Fig. 1) and screw on the hose
inlet (Fig. 2).
2. Extend the other side of the hose and screw it into the hose
outlet (Fig. 3)
3. Install the hose inlet into the unit (Fig. 4)
4. Affix the hose outlet into the window seal kit (Fig. 5+6)
Your window seal kit has been designed to fit most standard vertical
and horizontal windows; however, it may be necessary for you to
modify some aspects of the installation procedures for certain types
of windows.

Location
•The unit should be placed on firm ground to help minimise noise and
vibration. For safe and secure positioning, place the unit on a smooth,
level floor which is strong enough to support the unit.
•This unit has castors to aid placement but it should only be rolled on
smooth, flat surfaces. Use caution when rolling on carpeted and wooden
surfaces. Do not attempt to roll the unit over other objects.
•The unit must be placed within reach of a properly rated grounded
socket.
•Never place any obstacles around the air inlet or outlet of the unit.
•Allow at least 45cm of space around, above and away from the wall to
ensure the appliance works efficiently.
•The hose can be extended but it is best to keep it to the minimum length
required. Also ensure that the hose does not have any sharp bends or
sags.
INSTALLING YOUR AIR

Your Zanussi Air Conditioner has been supplied with a Window Sealing
Kit. The kit is suitable for use on UPVC windows that open internally or
externally either 3 sides, or 4 sides. It is not suitable for middle opening
windows such as skylights, or wooden frames.
The maximum aperture dimensions of the kit is 400cm. To measure the
dimensions of a 4 point window, measure the frame on all 4 sides. For a
3 point window, measure the frame on the open sides only.
INSTALLING YOUR WINDOW KIT
To install this window seal, whilst the window
is closed, apply the Velcro tape on both the
inside frame of the window, and the frame of
the window as shown by the dotted lines.
Ensure that the tape is not clamped or in a
position it will become clamped.
Apply the long side of the seal kit to the
outside frame, and the short side to the
inside window.
Open the window, and ensure there is a
sufficient seal.
Open the zip, and thread your air conditioner
hose through the opening, then tighten the
zip.

USING YOUR AIR CONDITIONER
Operating from the control panel
The control panel is on top of the appliance and it enables you to manage
functions without using the remote control. However, to use the appliance
to its full potential you are advised to use the remote control.
To turn the appliance on plug it into a mains socket and the appliance will
enter standby mode.
Press the ON/OFF button to turn the appliance on, the last function that
was active when the appliance was turned off will appear.
“Never turn the appliance off by unplugging it from the mains. Always
press the ON/OFF button, then wait for a few minutes before
unplugging. This allows the appliance to perform a cycle of checks to
verify the operation”
COOL Mode
Ideal for hot humid weather when you need to cool and dehumidify the
room.
To set this mode correctly:
- Press the MODE button several times until the COOL mode indicator
light appears.
- Select the desired temperature by pressing the INCREASE and
DECREASE buttons until the value you want is displayed. The
temperature ranges from 18-32°C (64-90°F) in this mode.
- Select the required fan speed by pressing the FAN button.
-There are 2 fan speeds to choose from: “F2” (High) & “F1” (Low)
F2 HIGH: To achieve the desired temperature as fast as possible.
F1 LOW: Lowers the noise of the appliance.
The most suitable temperature for a room during the summer varies from
24-27°C. You are recommended not to set a temperature much lower than
the outdoor temperature, this will cause unnecessary power
consumption.

Tips for correct use
To get the best out of your appliance, follow these
recommendations:
•If possible, close the windows and doors in the room you want to
be air conditioned (Fig 21). When installing the appliance semi-
permanently you should leave a door slightly open (as little as 1cm)
to guarantee correct ventilation.
•Protect the room from direct exposure to the sun by partially
closing curtains and/or blinds to make the appliance much more
economical to run (Fig 22).
•Never rest objects of any kind on the appliance.
•Do not obstruct the air intake and outlet (Fig 23). Ensure the grills
are left free.
•Make sure there are no heat sources within the room.
•Never use the appliance in very damp rooms (e.g. Laundry Rooms).
•Never use the appliance outdoors.
•Make sure the appliance is standing on a level surface. If necessary,
place the castor locks under the front wheels.
