Getting started

1. Ensure that the air conditioner is on a horizontal surface, positioned as close to the window as possible with at least 100mm of space behind to allow a free flow of air into the unit. Also ensure that the exhaust hose in connected to the correct connection at the back of the unit so that the hot air is exhausted out of the room.
Open the air vent on the top of the air conditioning unit.

2. Plug appliance into normal 13amp socket making sure that the load on that circuit/extension lead will not be overloaded and cause the fuse/circuit breaker to trip. The red 'Power' indicator will show.

3. Press the ON/OFF button to start the unit.

4. Press the Mode button to scroll through the 4 modes of operation 'Auto' 'Cool' 'Dry'' & 'Fan.' To achieve continuous cooling under thermostatic control for office use we recommend the 'Cool' mode. Other modes will not provide full cooling performance.

Routine maintenance

To keep the air conditioning unit you have hired working at peak performance it is necessary to clean the air filter each week. Remove the filter by sliding it upwards to release the bottom and then down to remove completely. Brush/vacuum any dust from the outside of the filter so that air flow through the machine is not restricted.
