PERMANENT INSTALLATION

Our air-conditioner is portable and versatile: it can be

used for a permanent installation or easily moved from

one room to another.

In case of permanent 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 “air-tight”;

a drop in pressure would cause irregular functioning,

which could consequently activate the reset switch.

Air entering through door and window cracks is nor-

mally sufficient. If deemed necessary leave a door

open (approx. 1/2 inch is enough).

The unit can also be used as a “temporary” installation

for use in any room with a window or french window;

this “temporary” installation can be used at any time

until it is ready for permanent installation.

Tempory installation

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

tioned 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, provi-

ded there is a window or a door: it

allows you to use the Pinguino

immediately (Fig. 5).

Suction cups may be used to

keep window or door closed (Fig.

6).

Pinguino is equipped with an adju-

stable window bracket. If you have

a sliding window, place the bracket

on the window sill, extend the

bracket fully within the window

frame and lower the window onto

the bracket. Insert the nozzle of the

exhaust hose into the slot, then con-

nect the hose to the air conditioner

(Fig. 7). With the wing nut, it’s possi-

ble 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 (see

the following instructions).

PREPARING THE UNIT FOR USE

1) Fit the exhaust tube in place; if your conditioner is

supplied with a extendable tube, it is fitted as illu-

strated in the diagram.

2) For permanent installation, place the appliance

near the wall or window outlet. Make sure it is stan-

ding on a level surface and fit the special shock

absorbers/castor stops underneath the castors.

NO YES YES

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

Check that the power supply voltage is 115 V ~ 60 Hz.

Important: If you need to use an extension cord, please be sure to

use a heavy duty extension cord (minimum 14 gauge).

Before connecting the Pinguino to a power supply, make sure

that all switches on the front control panel are in the OFF position.

Connect power cord found in storage compartment at rear of

the Pinguino (Fig. 9).

ENGLISH

Pinguino is equipped with an adjustable win-

dow bracket (18). If you have a sliding win-

dow, place the bracket on the window sill,

extend the bracket fully within the window

frame and lower the window onto the brack-

et. Insert the nozzle of the exhaust hose into

the slot, then connect the hose to the air con-

ditioner (Fig.10).

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

bracket also for sliding windows. Position the

hole of the bracket to allow for correction instal-

lation of the exhaust hose (see the following

instructions).

Setting up

If you have a sliding door, use the additional

set provided in order to extend the accessory

to the desired length; joining the two parts

(fig. 11), adjust the total length according to

your needs, then fit the bracket with the rele-

vant nuts, close the door and connect the

hose (fig. 12).

Final check

-Doors and windows of room to be air con-

ditioned are closed (with the exception of

temporary 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.

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

fig. 14

SPECIAL NOTE

This machine is designed to be used with or without water. Maximum performance is obtained

using water.

HOW TO PREPARE WATER CONTAINER

Use only clean, salt-free tap water. The water is essential for the air cooling operation and is

discharged in the form of steam through the exhaust outlet. A container full of water lasts for a

period that depends on a number of conditions; such as temperature, humidity, insulation, sun

exposure to the room, number of people present, etc. On average it will last approximately 7 to

10 hours.

When the container is empty, the appliance automatically changes function from water to air.At

the same time, the quantity of air discharged from the rear hose will increase.

Open the water container compart-

ment door, tip the container forwards

and lift up to remove.

Remove the cap, pull out the extenda-

ble tube and fill the container, standing

it on the floor.

After filling, replace the extendable tube,

screw the cap on tightly and return the

container to its place, making sure the

word FRONT is facing out.

During “water condensation” cooling function and in particularly quiet surroundings (eg.

bedroom), a slight gurgling noise may be heard. This is perfectly normal.

Warning: Do not use water containing salt, eg. seawater or water treated using softening systems

that utilize table salt.

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

(following the direction of the arrow) until the

number 4 is lined up with the arrow pointer

(the arrows indicates 4:00 p.m. approxima-

tely).

Note: Never turn the dial in a counter-

clockwise direction!

The timer is in effect, an electric clock and

works only if the plug is connected to the

power supply. Whenever the plug is discon-

nected or there is a power failure, the pro-

grammer 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

min).

3) Check that the timer indicates the correct

time (see instructions on setting).

4) Select the desired function as shown in the

chart.

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

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

sing in thickness. We therefore recommend that when starting up the appliance, the

thermostat be turned to maximum (thick line = maximum cold). When the desired tem-

perature 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 con-

ditioner is now programmed 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.
