CONTROLS AND DISPLAY

1. POWER Press the POWER button to turn the unit "ON" or "OFF".

※The portable air conditioner is fitted 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 key to select cooling, heating, dehumidifying or

humidifying.

※Humidifier:

1. The unit will stop automatically after four hours of operation. Put water into the water

filler (10) to restart operation.

2. The unit will stop humidifying if the ambient humidity is equal to the pre-set humidity.

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

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

mode, this button raises the set temperature by 1°C each time it

is pressed to a maximum of 25°C.

4. (TEMP-) In cooling mode, 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 slow as the cooling may be less effective.

5. DISPLAY The display indicates the current set temperature or the timer

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

setting is shown before 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 TURBO, HIGH, LOW or AUTO fan

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

maximum capacity and turbo 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 HIGH fan speed. Once the room temperature

equals the set temperature, the unit will operate at minimum

capacity and low fan speed to efficiently maintain the desired

temperature. When TURBO, HIGH or LOW speed is selected,

the unit operates at maximum capacity until the set temperature

is reached. The fan operates at the selected speed.

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 you wish the unit to start.

2. Choose the function desired (cooling, dehumidifier, heating or

humidifier.)

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.

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.

INSTALLATION

Unit Setup

1. Remove the water tank and take out the exhaust hose.

2. Remove the outlet grille and install the exhaust tube by

rotating it clockwise onto the rear air outlet. Please

ensure it is fully inserted before use. To remove the

exhaust hose, please rotate in an anti-clockwise

direction.

Locating the unit.

Install the portable air conditioner in a flat location

with adequate space to ensure the air inlets and

outlets will not be blocked.

Keep a minimum clearance of 50cm from walls and

other objects. Position the unit to allow the exhaust

hose to reach a suitable window, as shown.

Avoid sharp bends or kinks in the exhaust hose.

The optional adjustable window slider is included to

ensure the exhaust hose is held in place (in the

window) and prevents expelled hot air re-entering the

room.

The appliance should not be used in damp areas

such as a laundry or bathroom.

Do not place the unit where it will be in direct sunlight as it may overheat and turn off.

ADJUSTABLE WINDOW SLIDER KIT

The adjustable window slider kit is installed as shown below.

HEATING / COOLING / DEHUMIDIFYING

When using the heating function, remove the exhaust hose (Fig. 2) and replace the

opening (Fig. 3) with the outlet grille as shown in Fig. 4.

On the opposite end, install the exhaust hose attachment (Fig. 2) onto the unit’s grille as

shown in Fig.3. Attach the exhaust hose (Fig.4) onto the exhaust hose attachment (Fig.

2) by rotating it in a clockwise direction.

Once complete, ensure the outlet exhaust is attached to the window when using the

heating function. Reverse the process for cooling or dehumidification.

HUMIDIFYING

When using the humidifying function, remove the exhaust hose and fix the outlet grille

on the unit.

1. Fill the water filler and select humidifier function.

2. The unit will stop automatically after four hours of operation. Put water into the

water filler to restart operation.

3. The unit will stop humidifying if the ambient humidity is equal to the pre-set

humidity.

WATER DRAIN (Error code E4)

When the air conditioner is used, excess water condensation may be produced that will

fill the water tank. When the water tank is full, the unit will stop working and display an

E4 error code.

This means the unit will need to be drained as follows:

1. Switch off and unplug the unit.

2. Remove the water tank and pour out the water.

3. Put the water tank back to original position.

4. Restart the unit.

CONTINUOUS DRAINAGE

To continually drain the unit in dehumidifying mode, follow below steps:

1. Switch off and unplug the unit.

2. Remove the water tank and pour out the water.

3. Remove drain plug (Fig.1)

4. Plug draining tube to draining hole (Fig.2)

5. Put the water tank back to original position.
