4. Setup

4.1 Unpacking

Carefully remove the air cooler from its packaging. Inspect the unit for any signs of damage. Retain the packaging materials for future storage or transport.

4.2 Attaching Castor Wheels

The castor wheels are provided separately for easy mobility. Turn the cooler upside down or tilt it carefully. Insert the stem of each castor wheel into the designated holes at the bottom of the cooler until they click securely into place. Ensure all wheels are firmly attached before placing the cooler upright.

4.3 Placement

Place the air cooler on a firm, level surface in a well-ventilated room. For optimal cooling, position the cooler near an open window or door to draw in fresh air and allow humid air to escape. Ensure there is at least 20 cm of space around the cooler for proper airflow.

4.4 Initial Water Filling

Locate the water inlet on the cooler. Fill the water tank with clean water up to the 'MAX' indicator line. The cooler has a reservoir capacity of 115 liters. Do not overfill. For enhanced cooling, you may add ice cubes to the dedicated ice chamber.

5. Operation

Once the cooler is set up and filled with water, plug it into a suitable electrical outlet.

5.1 Control Panel

The cooler is operated using control knobs located on the top panel. These knobs allow you to adjust fan speed, cooling mode, and swing function.

5.2 Adjusting Fan Speed

Turn the fan speed knob to select from three available speeds: Low, Medium, or High. Adjust according to your cooling preference.

5.3 Selecting Cooling Mode

The cooler offers three multi-functional modes:

• Normal Mode: Provides continuous cooling at the selected fan speed.
• Natural Mode: Simulates natural breeze by varying fan speed automatically.
• Sleep Mode: Operates at a lower, quieter setting for comfortable night-time use.

Select the desired mode using the dedicated knob.

5.4 Using the Ice Chamber

For extra cooling, open the ice chamber lid and place ice cubes inside. Close the lid securely. The melting ice will cool the water, resulting in colder air output.

5.5 Air Swing Function

Activate the swing function to oscillate the vertical louvers, distributing cool air across a wider area. This feature can be controlled via a dedicated knob or button on the control panel.

6. Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and longevity of your air cooler. Always unplug the cooler before cleaning.

6.1 Cleaning the Water Tank

The detachable tank tower makes cleaning easy. Periodically drain the old water and clean the tank to prevent algae growth and maintain hygiene. Use a soft cloth and mild detergent if necessary, then rinse thoroughly.

6.2 Cleaning Honeycomb Pads

The Anti-bacterial Hexacool pads should be cleaned regularly to maintain air quality and cooling efficiency. Remove the back panel to access the pads. Gently rinse them under running water to remove dust and mineral deposits. Allow them to dry completely before reinserting.

6.3 Exterior Cleaning

Wipe the exterior of the cooler with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as they may damage the plastic surface.

6.4 Storage

If storing the cooler for an extended period, ensure the water tank is completely drained and dry. Clean all components, especially the honeycomb pads, and store the cooler in a dry, dust-free environment.

7. Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your air cooler, refer to the following common problems and solutions:

• Cooler not turning on: Check if the power cord is securely plugged into a working outlet. Ensure the power switch is in the 'ON' position.
• No or insufficient cooling: Verify that the water tank is filled to the appropriate level. Clean the honeycomb pads if they are clogged with dust or mineral deposits. Ensure there is adequate ventilation in the room.
• Unusual noise: Check for any obstructions in the fan blades. Ensure the cooler is on a stable, level surface. If the noise persists, contact customer support.
