Warning
READ AND SAVE THE AIR COOLER SAFETY & MAINTENANCE GUIDE AND USER MANUAL BEFORE USING THIS PRODUCT. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS MAY DAMAGE AND/OR IMPAIR ITS OPERATION AND VOID THE WARRANTY.
Use & Operation
Control Panel
The control panel features knobs for SWING, SPEED, and COOL functions, with ON/OFF and speed settings (0, 1, 2, 3).
Function Buttons
SPEED / ON - OFF
Connect to the power supply and turn the SPEED knob. The fan will start. Change the speed from 3 to 1 (1 for Low, 2 for Medium and 3 for High fan speed). To switch OFF the unit, turn the SPEED knob to 0.
COOL
You must add water before operating the unit on Cool mode. Turn the COOL knob to the ON position to activate evaporative cooling. The water pump will operate and you will feel the cooler air after the Honeycomb Cooling Media is completely wet.
SWING
Turn the SWING knob to the ON position to activate the movement of the louvers. The louvers will begin to move left to right automatically. Vertical Air Flow - You can manually adjust the lever located at the front of the unit to change vertical air flow.
Filling with Water
It is ideal to use the Continuous Water Supply Connection for long periods without refilling, which also helps prevent pump failure from inadequate water.
CAUTION: Unplug the unit from the electrical power outlet before filling or emptying the water tank.
Continuous Water Supply Connection
For a continuous water supply, you will need a garden hose connected to a main water supply.
1. Locate the male connector at one end of the garden hose. Insert the garden hose connector into the water inlet valve of the cooler. Screw and tighten the water inlet valve onto the threaded part of the garden hose connector, ensuring a secure connection to prevent leaks. If leaks occur, disconnect, replace, and retighten the water inlet valve.
2. When the connection is secured, turn ON the water supply. Water will flow into the cooler's tank.
3. The cooler will now refill automatically when the water tank is empty or falls below a minimum level.
4. When the water tank is full, the water inlet valve will automatically stop the water supply to prevent overflowing.
5. Open the water valve for minimum flow to avoid damaging the inlet pressure control system.
WARNING: The maximum water inlet pressure is 0.5 MPa.
Diagram Description: Illustrates the connection of a garden hose to the water inlet valve, showing the water inlet hole and water fill door. It also indicates an 'Ice Loading Compartment'.
Manual Water Tank Refill
Using a portable container or garden hose, refill the water tank manually through the water inlet hole at the top of the air cooler.
Check the water level indicator to know when the tank is full. Do not fill water above the "Max." water level mark to prevent water droplets from collecting on the louvers.
WARNING: Always ensure the water in the tank is above the minimum (Min.) water level mark for both Continuous & Manual Water Refill. Running the unit in Cool mode with inadequate water may cause pump failure.
Note: Water capacity refers to the total volume in the tank and distribution system. The 'Max.' indicator level may be lower than the actual tank capacity.
Cleaning & Draining the Water Tank
For long periods of non-use, refer to the STORAGE & MAINTENANCE GUIDELINES in the separate Safety & Maintenance Guide.
WARNING: Before cleaning, switch the unit OFF and disconnect from the electrical socket.
1. Move the unit to a location where water can be drained. Remove the cap from the Drain plug at the bottom of the unit and allow the tank to empty.
2. Refill the water tank with clean water to the maximum level and drain it completely.
3. Use a damp cloth to remove dirt and dust from the unit's surface. Never use corrosive elements or chemicals.
4. When not in use, store the unit in a dry place away from direct sunlight.
Cleaning the Honeycomb Cooling Media
The appliance includes three Honeycomb Cooling Media pads, located inside the Rear and Side Grills. Follow the steps below for removal, cleaning, and maintenance.
DO NOT run the unit in COOL mode with stale water. Empty and refill the tank with fresh water, especially if it hasn't been cleaned recently.
Cleaning frequency depends on local air and water conditions. High mineral content can cause deposits on the media, restricting airflow. Draining and refilling the tank weekly with fresh water helps reduce mineral deposits. If deposits persist, remove and wash the media under fresh water. Clean the media every two months or as needed.
For best results, allow the Honeycomb Cooling Media to dry after each use by turning off the cool function 15 minutes before turning the unit off.
Removing the Honeycomb Cooling Media
Diagram Description: Illustrates four steps for removing the Honeycomb Cooling Media. Step 1 shows removing rear grill screws. Step 2 shows pulling out the rear grill. Step 3 shows removing screws securing horizontal bars. Step 4 shows sliding out the honeycomb pad.
- Remove the screws from the Rear Grill of the Air Cooler.
- Carefully pull out the Rear Grill from the Air Cooler.
- The Honeycomb Cooling Pad is secured on the Rear Grill by two Horizontal Bars, fixed by screws on the Left and Right Sides. Remove these screws to release the bars.
- Pull out the Honeycomb Cooling Pad by sliding it out from the Rear Grill. Replace with a new pad by sliding into the grill grooves until it fits securely. Reattach the Horizontal Bars using the side screws.
- Repeat steps 1 to 4 for the Honeycomb Cooling Pads on the Left and Right Side Grills.
WARNING: DO NOT operate the Air Cooler with any or all Grills removed, or if a Grill is loose. This can cause serious injury or dangerous electrical shock.
