- Attach Air Exhaust Hoses: Connect the two air exhaust hoses to the rear ports of the unit. These hoses are crucial for expelling hot air generated during the cooling process. Ensure they are directed outside the space you are cooling (e.g., out of a tent window, RV vent).

6. Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and efficient operation of your air conditioner.
