6. Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and longevity of your portable air conditioner.

Filter Cleaning

The air filter should be cleaned every two weeks or more frequently depending on usage and air quality. A dirty filter can reduce cooling efficiency.

1. Unplug the unit from the power outlet.
2. Remove the air filter from the back of the unit.
3. Wash the filter with warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly.
4. Allow the filter to air dry completely before reinstalling.
5. Reinstall the filter and plug in the unit.

Water Drainage

The unit will automatically evaporate most of the condensed water. However, in high humidity conditions or when using the dehumidifier mode continuously, manual drainage may be required.

1. Unplug the unit.
2. Place a shallow pan or container under the drainage port at the bottom rear of the unit.
3. Remove the drain plug. Water will begin to flow out.
4. Once all water has drained, replace the drain plug securely.

7. Troubleshooting

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

• Unit does not turn on: Check if the power cord is securely plugged in and if the outlet is functioning. Ensure the unit is not in standby mode.
• Not cooling effectively: Verify that the room size is within the recommended range (up to 350 sq. ft.). Check if the air filter is clean and if the exhaust hose is properly installed and sealed. Ensure windows and doors are closed.
• Water leakage: Check if the drain plug is securely closed. If using dehumidifier mode continuously, ensure the drain pipe is properly connected to a container.
• Unusual noise: Ensure the unit is on a flat, stable surface. Check for any obstructions in the air inlets or outlets.

If the problem persists after trying these solutions, please contact customer support.
