Introduction.

Thank you for choosing a Dimplex air conditioner.This manual contains information,

regulations and warnings which are of fundamental importance if the appliance is to be

installed correctly and the highest performance, in the safest possible conditions is to be

obtained.We suggest that you read the manual carefully before installing or starting up

the appliance.

The new Dimplex appliances represent the most highly developed air conditioning units

available today.

Features

The air-conditioning unit is of the mono tube type, transferable (on Wheels) with air/air

operating system for domestic use and has 3 settings.

• Ventilate/Fan.

• Cool.

• Dehumidify.

The ventilation mode "moves" the air allowing for its recycling.

The cooling mode, a refrigerating circuit (compressor), cools the room by transferring

the heat from inside to outside though the air exhaust hose.While cooling, the air-

conditioning unit also dehumidifies the room air.

Humidity absorbed from the air condenses and turns into water that is collected in the

internal tank.The water level in the tank is automatically controlled by a float and micro

switch and when the preset level is exceeded the compressor indicator will blink and

the compressor will shut off automatically, the fan will stay on circulating the air. At this

time, you must empty the water tank as described in "Drainage" page 9.

Please Note!

During very humid conditions it will be necessary to empty the water tank more

frequently.

An added feature of this model, when enough water is collected in the tank, water is

automatically pumped up and through the condenser.The recycled water cools the

condenser which increases the cooling capacity output also evaporating some of the

water alleviating the frequency of having to empty the water tank.

Dehumidification, in the cooling mode your air-conditioner does remove moisture from

the air however another feature of this machine it can be set up to operate as a

Dehumidifier with better moisture removal performance.

Important Safeguards.

• The air conditioning unit must always be stored and transported upright. Otherwise

you may cause irreparable damage to the compressor; in case of doubt we suggest

you wait for at least 24 hours before you start the air-conditioner.

• Avoid restarting the air conditioning unit unless 4 minutes have passed since it was

turned off or the compressor may suffer damage.

• Never use the mains plug as a switch to start and turn off the air conditioning unit.

Use the provided ON/OFF button located on the control panel.

• Always place the portable air conditioner on a stable surface.

• Connect the portable air conditioner to a correct wall socket.

• Mount the exhaust hose on the portable air conditioner.

• The air conditioning unit should only be used by adults: do not allow children to play

with it.

Energy Saving Tips.

• Do not cover or restrict the airflow from the Outlet or Inlet grills.

Minimal distance from furniture and wall is 50cm.

• Keep blinds and /or draperies, on any windows, closed during the sunniest part of the

day.

• Keep the filter clean. Under normal conditions, the filters should be cleaned

approximately every 30 days. Since the filters remove airborne particles, more

frequent cleaning maybe necessary, depending on the indoor air quality.

• Please read the instructions carefully and save them in a safe place for future reference.

Installation.

Mounting of the unit

This unit is a PORTABLE AIR CONDITIONER. It can be moved from room to room, so

the cooling can follow you anywhere.The mounting is easy, beneath a window or wall.

Please refer to either of the following ways -

1. Using the foam strips

• Connect the supplied foam

strips with the exhaust pipe,

let the hot air flow to the

outside.

• Should the foam strip(s) be

too large, cut off the extra

part to fit the window.

1. Adaptor - for insertion over hose and

into back of the air conditioner.

2. Adaptor - for insertion over hose and

into foam strip.

3. Exhaust hose.

4. Foam strip - for filling the open

window space and with hole for

connection to exhaust hose.

5. Foam strip - for filling the open

window space.

6. Round window connector.

7. Cap for round window connector.

2. Using the round window

connectors.

• Make a hole (diameter >112mm)

in the wall/glass to fit the

supplied round window

connector.

• Take off the adaptor (the

one which does not connect

with the unit), fit the hose

directly to the round window

connector.

• When the hole is not in use.

Use the cap for the round

window connector to cover

the hole.

Mounting of the exhaust pipe

1. The supplied exhaust hose can be extended

from 300 to 1500mm for mounting. It is

recommended that you use the hose in the

shortest possible length.

2. Take care to prevent any bow or bend in

the middle of the exhaust hose, as this will

trap hot exhaust air, which will radiate into

the room and cause this unit to shut itself

off due to overheating.

WARNING!

The length of the exhaust pipe is specially

designed according to the specification of

this product. Do not replace or extend it

with your own private hose as this could

cause the unit to malfunction and
