CARE AND MAINTENANCE
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
1) Be sure to unplug the unit before cleaning or servicing.
2) Do not use gasoline, thinner or other chemicals to clean
the unit.
3) Do not wash the unit directly under a tap or spray with
water hose. It may cause electrical danger.
4) If the power cord is damaged, it should be repaired by
manufacture or its certified electrician.
1. Air filter
-
Clean the air filter at least once every two weeks to prevent
inferior fan operation due to dust accumulation.
Removal (This unit has two filters)
-
Upper Filter: Pull and remove according to arrow direction
in Fig. 23.
Lower Filter: First remove the screw as indicated in Fig.23,
remove filter.
Cleaning
-
-
Wash the air filters by immersing gently in warm water
(about 40OC/104OF) with a neutral detergent. Rinse the filters
and allow to dry completely in a shady area - do not place
under direct sunlight.
Mounting
Replace upper filter according to arrow direction in Fig.24
Replace lower filter and reinsert the screw. (Fig.24)
2. Housing
-
Use a lint-free cloth soaked with neutral detergent to clean
the unit’s housing. Finished by a dry clean cloth.
3. Storage
-
Remove the rubber plug at the back of the unit and attach
a hose to drain outlet. Place the open end of the hose
directly over the drain area (See Fig.20 & 21).
Drain water from the bottom tray by removing the plug from
the bottom drain outlet (See Fig.22).
-
-
Turn unit on and run in FAN for half a day in a warm room.
This will dry the inside of the unit and prevent mold and
mildew growth.
Power off the unit and unplug from power source. Wrap the
cord around the bracket and insert plug into the storage
socket. (Fig.25)
Clean both filters and reinstall.
Remove batteries from the remote and store with unit.

-
P1 appears in the display window
Drain the water in the bottom tray.
-
Room temperature is lower than
the set temperature.(Cooling mode)
Adjust the set temperature.
- The windows or doors in the room
are not closed.
Make sure all the windows and
doors are closed.
- There are heat sources inside the

Connect the duct and make
sure it can function properly.
- Temperature setting is too high.
- Air filters are dirty.
Decrease the set temperature.
Clean the air filters.
4. Noisy or vibration
5. Gurgling sound
- The ground is not level or not flat
enough.
Place the unit on a flat, level
ground if possible.
- This is the sound of refrigerant
flowing inside the unit.
This is normal.
- Overheat protection. When the
temperature at the air outlet
exceeds 70OC/158OF, the unit
will automatically shut off as a
protection feature.
Switch on again after the unit
has cooled down.

HANDLING THE REMOTE CONTROLLER
Location of the remote controller.
Use the remote controller within a distance of 26 feet
from the appliance, pointing it towards the receiver.
Reception is confirmed by a beep.
26’
CAUTIONS
The air conditioner will not respond if curtains, doors or other barriers
block the signal from the remote controller to the unit.
Prevent any liquid from coming in contact with the remote controller.
Do not expose the remote controller to direct sunlight or heat.
If the infrared signal receiver on the unit is exposed to direct sunlight,
the air conditioner may not respond. Close curtains/blinds to block
sunlight from falling on the receiver.
If other electrical appliances react to the remote controller, move
those appliances if possible.
Replacing batteries
The remote controller is powered by two AAA batteries (not included).
The batteries are housed in the back of remote, protected by a cover.
(1) Remove the cover by pressing down and sliding off.
(2) Remove the old batteries and insert new batteries, placing the
(+) and (-) ends correctly.
(3) Replace cover by sliding it back into position.
NOTE: When the batteries are removed, any programming
will be erased. After inserting the new batteries, the remote controller
can be reprogrammed.
CAUTIONS
Do not mix old and new batteries or batteries of a different type.
Do not leave the batteries in the remote controller if it is not going to be used for extended period
of time (2 months or more).
Dispose old batteries at recycling centers - contact your local government for disposal practices
in your area.
