Setup Guide
Initial Placement
Place the unit on a flat, stable surface. Ensure there is adequate air circulation around the unit. For optimal performance, ensure a window or door is slightly open to allow for air exchange, as this is an evaporative cooler and not a sealed air conditioner.
The WICOLO FK2306Y unit is designed for easy placement in various room settings.
Water Tank Filling
The unit features a 2-gallon (7.5L) water tank located at the rear. To fill, pull out the water tank drawer. Fill with clean water up to the 'MAX' line indicated on the tank. For enhanced cooling, you may add ice cubes or the provided ice boxes into the top ice bin.
The unit features a 2-gallon water tank for extended cooling. Water can be added from the top or directly into the pull-out tank.

For colder air, place frozen ice boxes or ice cubes into the top compartment. The unit will then circulate colder water for enhanced cooling.
