Setup and Installation

Proper installation is crucial for the efficient operation of your air conditioner.

1. Positioning the Unit:

Place the unit on a flat, stable surface. Ensure there is at least 30 cm (12 inches) of space around the unit for proper air circulation. The unit is portable and equipped with wheels for easy movement.

2. Exhaust Duct Installation:

1. Attach the exhaust duct connector to the exhaust port on the back of the unit.
2. Extend the 1.5-meter exhaust duct and connect it to the window installation panel.
3. Adjust the sliding window installation panel to fit your window opening and secure it. Ensure the hot air is expelled outdoors to maximize cooling efficiency.

3. Condensate Drainage:

For continuous drainage in dehumidifier mode, connect the 0.6-meter condensate tube to the drainage port and lead it to a suitable drain or container. In cooling mode, the unit typically self-evaporates condensate, but manual drainage may be required if the internal tank fills up.

4. Power Connection:

Plug the power cord into a grounded 220 Volt electrical outlet. The unit uses a Type C plug (French type).

Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and extends the lifespan of your air conditioner.

1. Cleaning the Air Filter:

The air filter should be cleaned every two weeks or more frequently depending on usage and air quality. A dirty filter reduces efficiency and airflow.

• Unplug the unit from the power outlet.
• Locate and remove the air filter (usually at the back or side of the unit).
• Wash the filter with warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and allow it to air dry completely before reinserting.

2. Draining Condensate:

While the unit has a self-evaporation system in cooling mode, the internal water tank may fill up, especially in high humidity or during dehumidifier operation. The unit will stop operating and display an error code when the tank is full.

• Unplug the unit.
• Place a shallow pan or tray under the drainage port at the bottom of the unit.
• Remove the drain plug and allow all water to drain out.
• Replace the drain plug securely.

3. Cleaning the Unit Exterior:

Wipe the exterior of the unit with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals, abrasives, or solvents.

4. Storage:

If storing the unit for an extended period, ensure it is completely drained of water, cleaned, and the power cord is neatly wrapped. Store in a dry, cool place.
