Setup and Installation
Unpacking
Carefully remove the air conditioner and all accessories from the packaging. Inspect the unit for any signs of damage. Retain the original packaging for future storage or transport of the unit.
Positioning the Unit
Place the unit on a flat, stable surface. Ensure there is at least 30 cm (12 inches) of unobstructed space around the unit to allow for proper air circulation and efficient operation.
Exhaust Hose Installation
The exhaust hose is crucial for expelling hot air from the room during cooling and dehumidification modes.
- Attach one end of the exhaust hose to the air outlet port located on the back of the main unit. Twist or push until it is securely fastened.
- Connect the window kit adapter to the other end of the exhaust hose.
- Open a window or sliding door and place the window kit adapter securely in the opening. Extend the window kit to fit the opening and seal any gaps around it to prevent hot air from re-entering the room.

Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and efficient operation of your air conditioner.
Filter Cleaning
The air filters should be cleaned regularly (e.g., every two weeks, or more often depending on usage) to maintain optimal performance and prevent the growth of bacteria and dust accumulation.
- Unplug the air conditioner from the power outlet before attempting any cleaning or maintenance.
- Locate the air filter covers on the back of the unit. Remove the covers and carefully pull out the filters.
- Clean the filters using a vacuum cleaner to remove loose dust. For a more thorough cleaning, wash them gently with lukewarm water and a mild detergent.
- Rinse the filters thoroughly and allow them to dry completely in a shaded area before reinserting them into the unit. Do not expose them to direct sunlight.
- Once dry, reinsert the filters and secure the covers.
Draining Water (DRY Mode)
When operating in DRY (dehumidification) mode, the unit collects moisture. The unit may have an internal water tank that needs to be emptied periodically, or it may support continuous drainage via a hose connection. Refer to the unit's specific drainage port for details. Ensure the drain plug is securely closed when not using continuous drainage.
