PERMANENT INSTALLATION

The Pinguino accessories include two sets of

flanges and stoppers, to be mountedl in different

locations (two different rooms). Once installed,

these vents (flanges) are the only items needed

for using Pinguino.

Permanent installation outlet holes must be in

an exterior wall and opening diameter should not

exceed 3”1/2.

In case of fixed installation, air discharged from

rear hose has been extracted from the room

where the appliance is installed.

Check that the room (especially if small) is not

“air-tight”; a drop in pressure would cause irreg-

ular functioning, which could consequently acti-

vate reset switch. Air entering through door and

window cracks is normally sufficient. If deemed,

necessary leave a door ajar (approx. 1 cm is

enough).

Setting up

GB 19-05-2003 16:32 Pagina 7

TEMPORARY INSTALLATION

Note: In both cases (permanent and temporary installations) make sure that the Pinguino is positioned

on level ground. If necessary use the two caster stops for the front casters

This installation makes it easy to use Pinguino in

any room, provided there is a window or a door:

it allows you to use the Pinguino immediately.

Suction discs may be used to keep window or

door closed.

bracket

Setting up

Pinguino is equipped with an adjustable window

bracket. If you have a sash window, place the

bracket on the window sill, extend the bracket

fully within the window frame and lower the win-

dow onto the bracket. Insert the nozzle of the

exhaust hose into the slot, then connect the

hose to the air conditioner (fig.7). Thanks to the

wing nut, it’s possible to use the window bracket

also for sliding windows. Position the hole of the

bracket so to allow a correct installation of the

exhaust hose.

If you have a sash door, use the additional set

provided in order to extend the accessory to the

desired length; joining the two parts (fig. 8),

adjust the total lenghth according to your needs

then, fix the bracket with the relevant nuts, close

the door and connect the hose (fig. 9).

-Doors and windows of room to be air-condi-

tioned are closed (with the exception of tem-

porary installation where a partially opened

window is necessary).

-Shade the room as far as possible from

direct sunlight by drawing curtains and/or

lowering blinds or shutters, for economical

and efficient air-cooling.

-Ensure that intake and outlet vents (fig. 2 and

3) are not blocked.

-Make sure there are no sources of heat in the

room.

FINAL CHECK

In order to obtain the maximum performance from your air-conditioner make sure that:

1) Water collects at this point 2) Bend this section 3) Bend this section

NO YES YES

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

SETTING THE TIMER

The programmer/timer, like all clocks, must be

set to the exact time. If for example it is 4.00

p.m., turn the dial in a clockwise direction (fol-

lowing the direction of the arrow) until the num-

ber 4 is lined up with the arrow pointer (the

arrows indicates 4:00 p.m. approximately).

Note:Never turn the dial in an anti-clockwise

direction!

The timer is in effect, an electric clock and works

only if the plug is connected to the power sup-

ply. Whenever the plug is disconnected or there

is a power failure, the programmer stops (the

clock is then “slow”) and must be re-set.

The unit can be used in either programmed or

non-programmed mode.

PROGRAMMED MODE

1) Release B timer button

2) Set the operating times by pushing out the

notches on the dial corresponding to the

period required (each notch represents 15

mins.).

3) Check that the timer indicates the correct

time (see instructions on setting).

4) Select the desired function as shown in the

chart overleaf.

The unit will now switch on and off each day

at the selected times.

Note: To override the programmed operating

times, simply press the ON/OFF key.

NON-PROGRAMMED MODE

1) B TIMER button must be pressed

2) Select the desired function as shown in the

chart on the following page.

arrow pointer

Operating time

Note: For technical reasons, the temperature is not expressed in degrees but by a line increasing in

thickness. We therefore recommend that when starting up the appliance, the thermostat be

turned to maximum (thick green line = maximum cold). When the desired temperature has

been reached, turn the thermostat slowly away from the maximum cooling position until the

appliance switches off. Leave the thermostat in this position. The air-conditioner is now pro-

grammed to maintain the exact temperature at all times.

After switching the appliance off, wait at least 3 min. before switching on again.

eg. from 9 to 11 a.m.
