Points to keep in mind when using your air conditioner
Warnings for use
• Do not modify any part of this product.
• Do not insert anything into any part of the unit.
• Ensure the power supply used has an appropriate
voltage rating. Only use a 0V – 40V, 50Hz,10A
mains electricity supply. Use of a power supply with an
improper voltage rating can result in damage to the unit
and possibly re.
• Always use a circuit breaker or fuse with the proper amp
rating.
Do not, under any circumstances, use wire, pins or other
objects in place of a proper fuse.
• In the event of any abnormality with the air conditioner
(eg. a burning smell), turn it off immediately and
disconnect the power supply.
Warning for power supply cord
• This power plug must only be plugged into an
appropriate wall socket. Do not use in conjunction with
any extension cords.
• Push the power plug securely into the socket and make
sure it is not loose.
• Do not pull, deform, or modify the power supply cord,
or immerse it in water. Pulling or misuse of the power
supply cord can result in damage to the unit and cause
electrical shock.
• If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by
the manufacturer or its service agent or a similarly
qualied person in order to avoid a hazard. Use only the
manufacturer specied power cord for replacement.
• This appliance must be earthed. This appliance is
equipped with a cord having an earth wire. The plug
must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed
and earthed.
(only for UK)
• This appliance is equipped with a cord that has a
earthed wire connected to an earthed pin. The plug
must be plugged into a socket that is properly installed
and earthed. Do not under any circumstances cut or
remove the square earthed pin from this plug.
Usage cautions
• Ventilate the room periodically during use, especially if using
gas appliances in conjunction with the air conditioner.
• Be sure to turn the unit off and disconnect the power supply
cord before performing any maintenance
or cleaning.
• Do not splash or pour water directly onto the unit.
Water can cause electrical shock or equipment damage.
• Drainage should be performed whenever moving the air
conditioner (see page 19). If any water remains in the tank, it
may spill out while being moved.
• To ensure proper drainage, the drainage hose must have
no kinks and must not be elevated during dehumidication
mode. If not, the drained water may spill out into the room.
• The temperature around the drainage hose must not be
below freezing point when used. Drained water may freeze
inside the hose, causing water inside the unit to overow
into the room.
• Do not block the exhaust air outlet with obstacles.
Cooling performance may be reduced or stop completely.
• Provide a residual current device (RCD) in order to protect
against electric shock in accordance with British Standard
and Wiring Rules.
• Exposure to direct airow for an extended period of
time could be hazardous to your health. Do not expose
occupants, pets, or plants to direct airow for extended
periods of time.
• Do not use this air conditioner for non-specied special
purposes (e.g. preserving precision devices, food, pets,
plants, and art objects). Usage in such a manner could
harm such property.
Notes on operation
• Allow 3 minutes for the compressor to restart cooling.
If you turn the air conditioner off and immediately restart it,
allow three minutes for the compressor to restart cooling.
There is an electronic device in the unit that keeps the
compressor turned off for three minutes
for safety.
• In the event of a power failure during use, allow 3 minutes
before restarting the unit. After power is reinstated, restart
the air conditioner. If the power was off for less than three
minutes, be sure to wait at least three minutes before
restarting the unit. If you restart the air conditioner within
three minutes, a protective device in the unit may cause
the compressor to shut off. This protective device will
prevent cooling for about 5 minutes. Any previous settings
will be cancelled and the unit will return to its initial
settings.
• Low temperature operation: Is your unit freezing up?
Freezing may occur when the unit is set close to 18°C in
low ambient temperature conditions, especially at night.
In these conditions, a further temperature drop may cause
the unit to freeze. Setting the unit to a higher temperature
will prevent it from freezing.
• Dehumidication mode increases room temperature.
The unit generates heat during dehumidication mode
and the room temperature will rise. Warm air will be blown
out from the Exhaust air outlet, but this is normal and
does not indicate a problem with the unit.
• This air conditioner blows the warm air generated by the
unit outside the room via the exhaust hose while in cool
mode. Accordingly, the same amount of air as that blown
out will enter the room from outside through any openings
into the room.
