Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your air conditioner, refer to the following common troubleshooting tips:

• Unit does not turn on: Check if the power cord is securely plugged in. Ensure the circuit breaker has not tripped.
• Unit is not cooling effectively: Verify that the temperature setting is lower than the room temperature. Check if the air filter is clean. Ensure windows and doors are closed to prevent warm air from entering.
• Unusual noise: Small noises during operation are normal. If the noise is excessive or unusual, ensure the unit is installed securely and not vibrating against the window frame.
• Water dripping outside: This is normal during cooling and dehumidifying operations as condensation is expelled.
• Remote control not working: Check the batteries in the remote control. Ensure there are no obstructions between the remote and the unit.

If these steps do not resolve the issue, please contact customer support for further assistance.
