Problem: The air conditioner turns on, but the compressor does not - the fan
runs, but the unit is not cooling
Possible Cause: The room temperature is outside of the operational tolerances of the unit.
Solution: Portable air conditioners work best in ambient temperatures of 64°F to 90°F. Close
and insulate windows or doors to other rooms.
Possible Cause: The unit is not set to Cooling mode.
Solution: Press the MODE button until the COOL icon is shown on the display.
Possible Cause: The compressor has not turned on.
Solution: Give the compressor 3 minutes to turn on after the Cooling mode has been selected
Possible Cause: The set temperature is too high.
Solution: Set the air conditioner to a lower temperature. The unit has a 5°F temperature cushion;
the unit will cool until the ambient temperature reaches within 5°F of the set temperature.
Possible Cause: The internal water reservoir is full – Red light is flashing, STOP or P1 appears
on the display.
Solution: Drain the collected condensation from the lower drain port. Note: some models have a
rubber stopper and others have a plastic drain cover and rubber stopper. Refer to the user manual
for more information. If after draining the red light is flashing, STOP or P1 still appears on the
display, there may be a loose internal connection. Please contact Whynter Customer Support for
service.
Problem: The air coming out of the unit is not very cold - the airflow volume is
weak
Possible Cause: The filters are dirty or obstructed.
Solution: Clean the washable pre-filter. Change the carbon or 3M Antimicrobial filter. Refer to
the user manual for more information.
