This product has a three-pronged grounded plug. Plug into a mating grounding-type receptacle in accordance with the National Electrical Code and applicable local codes. If the circuit lacks a grounding receptacle, the customer must exchange the existing receptacle. Never cut or remove the ground prong.

Never use the cord, plug, or appliance if damaged. Do not use with an extension cord unless tested by a qualified supplier. Improper grounding can result in fire, electric shock, or injury.

Consult a qualified service representative if unsure about grounding.

Electrical Connections

Before plugging in:

• Verify mains power supply matches the rating plate.
• Ensure the power socket and circuit are adequate.
• Check that the mains socket matches the plug. Replace plug if necessary.
• Ensure the mains socket is adequately earthed.

Failure to follow these instructions absolves the manufacturer of liability.

Tips for Correct Use

• Close windows and doors. For semi-permanent installation, leave a door slightly ajar (1 cm) for ventilation.
• Protect room from direct sun using curtains/blinds for economy.
• Do not place objects on the appliance.
• Do not block air inlet/outlet; reduced airflow impairs performance and can damage the unit.
• Eliminate heat sources in the room.
• Do not use in very damp rooms (e.g., laundries).
• Do not use outdoors.
• Ensure appliance is on a level surface. Use castor locks if needed.

Water Drainage Method

When the internal water tank is full, the appliance stops and displays "[Full Tank]". Drain the condensation:

Manual Draining:

1. Unplug the unit.
2. Place a drain pan under the lower drain plug.
3. Remove the lower drain plug.
4. Allow water to drain into the pan.
5. Replace the lower drain plug firmly.
6. Turn the unit on.

Continuous Draining:

Recommended for Dry mode. 1. Unplug the unit. 2. Remove the drain plug (some water may spill; use a pan). 3. Connect the drain hose (1/2" or 12.7mm). 4. Drain water into a floor drain or bucket. 5. Turn on the unit.

Ensure the drain hose height is not higher than the drain outlet to prevent drainage issues.

Middle Drainage:

For Dry mode: 1. Unplug the unit. 2. Remove the drain cap (some water may spill; use a pan). 3. Connect the drain hose (1/2" or 12.7mm). 4. Drain water into a floor drain or bucket. 5. Turn on the unit.

Condensate may flow out after removing the drain cap. Prepare a drip tray when removing the hose. Ensure drain hose height is not higher than the drain outlet. For maximum performance in Cool mode, it is recommended to disable continuous drainage by replacing the drain cap.

Cleaning

Turn off the appliance using the [Power Button] or remote, wait a few minutes, then unplug before cleaning.

Cleaning the Cabinet:

Wipe with a slightly damp cloth, then dry. Never wash with water, petrol, alcohol, solvents, or spray insecticides.

Cleaning the Air Filters:

Clean filters weekly for efficiency. The evaporator filter can be removed as shown in Fig. 28. Avoid contact with metal parts to prevent cuts.

The condenser filters are two pieces. Remove them as shown in Fig. 29, 30-31. Avoid contact with metal parts.

Use a vacuum cleaner for dust. If very dirty, immerse in warm water (max 104°F / 40°C), rinse, and dry thoroughly before re-attaching.

Start-End of Season Operations

Start of Season Checks:

Ensure power cable and plug are undamaged and the earth system is efficient. Follow installation instructions.

End of Season Operations:

To empty the internal circuit, remove the cap (fig. 32), drain water into a basin, and replace the cap. Clean and dry filters thoroughly before storing.
