Install the portable air conditioner in a flat location with adequate space to ensure the air inlets and outlets will not be blocked. Keep a minimum clearance of 50cm from walls and other objects. Position the unit to allow the exhaust hose to reach a suitable window, as shown. Avoid sharp bends or kinks in the exhaust hose. The optional adjustable window slider is included to ensure the exhaust hose is held in place (in the window) and prevents expelled hot air re-entering the room. The appliance should not be used in damp areas such as a laundry or bathroom. Do not place the unit where it will be in direct sunlight as it may overheat and turn off.

ADJUSTABLE WINDOW SLIDER KIT
The adjustable window slider kit is installed as shown below.
WATER DRAIN
When the air conditioner is used, excess water condensation may be produced that will fill the water tank. This water is captured by an internal container. When this is full, the unit will stop working and the "FULL" indicator will illuminate. This means the unit will need to be drained as follows:
1. Switch off and unplug the unit. 2. Move the unit to a suitable location to drain the water. Consider placing a small
tray beside the outlet pipe to catch the drained water. 3. Remove the drain plus as per the image below. (Fig. 2) 4. Slightly tilt the unit to the rear to drain the water. 5. Replace the drain plug. Ensure the drain plug is fully fitted before use. Connect
the exhaust hose to the window kit before the unit is switched back on.
