CONTROLS & DISPLAY

ICON DESCRIPTION

OPERATION

(1) POWER - Press the POWER button to turn the unit “ON” or “OFF”.

The portable air conditioner is tted with a compressor delay protection

circuit. This protects the unit from possible damage due to rapid starting

and stopping of its compressor. Compressor operation begins 3 minutes

after the unit is switched on or the mode is switched from dehumidify to air

conditioning.

(2) FUNCTION Press this button to select cooling, heating or

dehumidication. When the heating or dehumidication functions are

used the upper drain plug (6) must be removed and a drain hose must be

attached.

(3) TEMP+ In cooling function, this button raises the set temperature by

1°C each time it is pressed to a maximum of 30°C. In heating function,

this button raises the set temperature by 1°C each time it is pressed to a

maximum of 25°C.

(4) TEMP- In cooling function, this button lowers the set temperature by

1°C each time it is pressed, to a minimum of 17°C. In heating function,

this button lowers the set temperature by 1°C each time it is pressed to a

minimum of 15°C.

The time taken to reach the desired set temperature will depend on the

environment and the size of the space in which the unit is operating in. For

example, if the ambient temperature is too hot or the room is too large, the

rate at which the temperature descends will be slower and the cooling may

be less effective.

OPERATION

(5) DISPLAY The display indicates the current, the set temperature or the

timer setting. When the timer or temperature is adjusted, the new setting is

shown then the display returns to the current set temperature.

The display is also used to show error codes should a fault occur,

see ERROR CODES.

(6) SPEED Press SPEED to select LOW, MEDIUM, HIGH or AUTO fan

speed. If AUTO fan speed is selected, the unit operates at maximum

capacity and high fan speed while the room temperature is more than 2°C

from the set temperature. When the room temperature is within 2°C of

the set temperature, the unit operates at medium capacity and fan speed.

Once the room temperature equals the set temperature, the unit will operate

at minimum capacity and low fan speed to efciently maintain the desired

temperature. When HIGH, MEDIUM or LOW speed is selected, the unit

operates at maximum capacity until the set temperature is reached. The fan

operates at the selected speed.

Note: When the unit is in heating mode, only HIGH, LOW fan speed can be

selected.

(7) TIMER ON/OFF button for the programmable timer.

The timer can be used to turn the unit on automatically after a set

time delay is complete.

1. With the unit OFF, press the “TIMER” button to set the desired time

delay before the unit is to start.

2. Choose the function desired (cooling, heating or dehumidication.)

3. Once the set time delay is complete, the unit will turn on automatically.

4. If you press the “POWER” button before the time delay is complete, the

delay will be cancelled and the unit will turn on immediately.

OPERATION

The timer can be used to turn the unit off automatically after a set

time period is complete.

1. With the unit ON, press the “TIMER” button to set the desired time for

the unit to remain on.

2. Once the set time period is complete, the unit will turn off automatically.

3. If you press the “POWER” button before the time delay is complete, the

delay will be cancelled and the unit will turn off immediately.

(8) SLEEP Press the SLEEP button to select the sleep comfort mode.

When the unit is cooling and sleep mode is selected, the unit will raise

the set temperature 1°C each hour to a maximum of 2°C over two hours.

When the unit is heating and sleep mode is selected, the unit will lower

the set temperature 1°C each hour to a maximum of 2°C over two hours.

These temperatures will be maintained for the balance of the time set

and help maximize sleep comfort.

When setting the “sleep comfort” mode, please ensure that you set the

number of hours required by using the TIMER function. The hours set

will be shown on the display by pressing either the TEMP+ or TEMP

buttons.
