3. Function Modes
- Cool Mode: Activates the water pump to moisten the cooling pads, providing evaporative cooling. For optimal cooling, wait approximately 5 minutes after starting the cooler in Cool mode before switching on the fan.
- Fan Mode: Operates the fan without engaging the water pump, circulating air like a standard fan.
- Swing Function: Activates the oscillating louvers for wider air distribution.
- Timer: Set the cooler to operate for a specific duration (e.g., 1 hour, 2 hours, 4 hours) using the timer function.
4. Cool Flow Dispenser
The integrated cool flow dispenser ensures even distribution of water over the cooling pads for consistent and efficient cooling performance.
Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and efficient operation of your Symphony DIET12i air cooler.
1. Draining the Water Tank
To drain the water tank, locate the drain plug at the bottom of the unit. Place a suitable container beneath the plug and remove it to allow water to flow out. Tilt the unit slightly if necessary to ensure complete drainage, especially before storing the cooler for extended periods.
2. Cleaning the Water Tank and Cooling Pads
Over time, mineral deposits and algae may accumulate in the water tank and on the cooling pads. It is important to clean these components regularly to prevent odors and maintain cooling efficiency. While the water storage area may not be easily accessible for scrubbing, regular draining and rinsing with clean water can help. For persistent odors, consider using a mild disinfectant solution specifically designed for air coolers, following the product's instructions.
3. Exterior Cleaning
Wipe the exterior surfaces of the cooler with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
4. Storage
Before storing the cooler, especially during off-season, ensure the water tank is completely drained and dry. Store the unit in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
