INSTALLATION
SELECTING THE LOCATION
Place the unit in a flat location where the air out-
lets are not obstructed. Place the unit at least
20” (50cm) away from a wall or other obstacle.
MOUNTING THE EXHAUST HOSE
Slide the square end of the exhaust duct over the
hot air outlet on the back of the unit.
The exhaust hose should be kept as short and
straight as possible. Prevent any sharp bends in
the exhaust hose, as this will trap hot exhaust air.
The hot exhaust air can be vented through the
wall or out a window. If mounting in the wall, the
height of the hole should be 14 1/4” to 60
5/8” (36cm to 150cm).
Soleus Air does not provide a venting kit for
through the wall ventilation. Venting through the
wall requires a custom installation.

LCDI POWER CORD AND PLUG
This air conditioner is equipped with an LCDI (Leakage Current Detection and Interruption) power cord and
plug as required by US National Electric Code 440.65. This cord consists of a length of shielded flexible cord
with no termination on the load side and a LCDI attachment plug on the line side.
The LCDI power cord and plug will remove the supply source via electrical disconnect (circuit trip) if the
nominal current leakage between the cord shield and either load conductor exceeds a predetermined value.
The cord will remain de-energized until the devise has been manually reset. This is intended to reduce the risk
of a fire in the power cord or combustible materials nearby. The cord shields are not grounded and they must
be considered a shock hazards if exposed. The cord shield must not be connected to ground or to any exposed
metal.
The test and reset buttons on the LCDI Plug are used to check if the plug is functioning properly. To test:
1. Plug power cord into wall outlet
2. Press TEST Button, circuit should trip, cutting power to the air conditioner
3. Press RESET button for use
If test button is pressed and unit can still be turned on, current leakage has been detected. Do not use the air
conditioner or attempt to reset the LCDI Plug. Contact Soleus Air Customer Service for troubleshooting
recommendations.
RESET
TEST
WARNING:
1. DO NOT press the TEST button while the air conditioner is operating.
2. The TEST and RESET buttons should not be used as “ON” and “OFF” switches.
3. The cord and plug are not intended to offer protection to externally connected loads or supply circuits.
4. The cord and plug are intended for indoor use only.

WINDOW KIT INSTALLATION
WINDOW KIT INSTALLATION
The window kit is designed to fit into most standard
vertical and horizontal windows, as well as some
sliding glass doors. However, it may be necessary to
modify some aspects of the installation process for
certain window types.
Open the window or sliding door and adjust the
length of the window kit to fit the opening. If the
window kit is not long enough, connect the extra
window kit panel to fit the opening. Mark and cut
down a single panel of the window kit if neces-
sary.
Window Slider Kit
Minimum: 19.7” (50cm)
Maximum: 55.5” (141cm)
Place the window kit between the window and the
window frame as shown in the images to the right.
Close the window onto the window kit to form a
tight seal.
Attach the exhaust duct adapter to the window kit.
Tabs located on the adapter will lock into place
securing the adapter to the window kit.

MODE OPERATION
OPERATING THE UNIT USING THE CONTROL PANEL
Air Conditioner Mode
1) Install the exhaust hose and window kit properly (see pages 7 & 8).
2) Plug the Power Cord into an electrical outlet.
3) Turn on the unit by pressing the POWER button on the control panel.
4) Press the ▲ or ▼ buttons until the desired room temperature appears on the control panel
display. The temperature ranges from 61°F - 88 °F (16 °C - 31 °C).
5) Select the desired fan speed by pressing the FAN button.
NOTE: During hot days, the unit will cool the room most efficiently by setting the temperature at the lowest
setting and the fan speed on high. Reducing the length of the exhaust duct, insulating the exhaust hose and
window kit, and keeping direct sunlight to a minimum will also improve the cooling efficiency.
NOTE: When the unit is running on cooling mode, the exhaust hoses are required and must be vented outside
using the supplied window kit.
Dehumidifier Mode
1) Install the exhaust hoses and window kit properly (see pages 7 & 8).
2) Plug the Power Cord into an electrical outlet.
3) Turn on the unit by pressing the POWER Button on the control panel.
NOTE: The unit operates at low fan speed during dehumidifier mode. The unit cools room slightly during
the dehumidification. Keep the windows and doors closed to aid the effectiveness of the unit in removing the
moisture from the room.
NOTE: When the unit is running in dehumidifier mode, the exhaust hoses are required and must be vented
outside using the supplied window kit. The unit will not perform in dehumidifier mode when the room tem-
perature is lower than 61°F .
Compressor Indicator
The compressor light will light up on the control panel display when the compressor turns on. The compressor
light will turn off when the compressor shuts off.

CONDENSATE EVAPORATION
Emergency Condensate Holding Tank
When the room temperature is low and the indoor humidity is high, the air conditioner may not be able to
evaporate some of the moisture fast enough. When this happens, the water will accumulate in an emergency
condensate tank inside the unit. Once the emergency condensate tank is full, the unit will automatically shut
off and the FULL light will appear on the control panel display. To empty the condensate tank, unscrew the
screw plug at the bottom back of the unit. You will need a small pan, approximately 1” high to catch the water
coming out of the condensate tank. Once the condensate tank is drained, the unit will begin working within a
few minutes. The emergency condensate tank holds approximately 1.5 Liters of water. Another option is to
purchase a small hose from a hardware store that can fit around the 5/8” drain plug on the back of the unit and
drain the unit into a gravity drain or larger pan for continuous drainage.
To resume operation quickly, empty the water container according to the following steps:
1. Turn the unit off. Do not move the unit when the water container is full.
2. Place the drain pan accessory under the drainage port at the back of the unit.
3. Remove the drain plug from the drain hole. The condensate water will drain out automatically. When the
drain pan is full, place the drain plug back onto the drainage hole to stop the water flow. Empty the drain
pan. Repeat until all the water is emptied.
Once the water container has been emptied, place the drain plug back onto the drain hole. Do not
allow the water to drip continuously into the drain pan, as it might easily overflow.
