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 16 to 50 inches  
(40cm to 130cm).  
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 ONand OFFswitches.  
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 necessary.  
Window Slider Kit  
Minimum: 28”  
Maximum: 55”  
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.  
Window Slider Kit  
Minimum: 28”  
Maximum: 55”

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 Mode button until the “  
” icon appears on the Multi-color display  
5) 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).  
6) Select the desired fan speed by pressing the FAN SPEED 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.  
4) Press the MODE button until the “  
” appears on the control panel display.  
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.  
NOTE: The unit will not perform in dehumidifier mode when the room temperature is lower than 61°F .  
Fan Mode  
1) Plug the Power Cord into an electrical outlet.  
2) Turn on the unit by pressing the POWER button on the control panel.  
3) Press the MODE button until the “  
” icon appears on the control panel display.  
4) Select the fan speed by pressing the FAN SPEED button.  
5) To circulate more air, press the SWING button on the remote control. The louvers will oscillate in our  
exclusive WAVEFLO® pattern; back and forth and up and down, spreading more air throughout the  
room.  
NOTE: It is not necessary for the exhaust hoses and window kit to be installed to operate the unit in fan mode.

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 “  
” 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 com-  
ing 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 pur-  
chase 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 screw plug from the drain hole. The condensate water will drain out automatically. When the  
drain pan is full, screw the screw 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, screw the plug back onto the drain hole. Do not allow the  
water to drip continuously into the drain pan, as it might easily overflow.
