UK Remove all packaging of the device.

Check if the voltage of the appliance corresponds to the main voltage of your home.

Rated voltage : AC220-240V 50Hz. This device is not suitable for outdoor installation or use.

When fixed or moved, the device can not be set horizontally or declined to more then 45° or

upside-down. The refrigerant circuit is checked for leak tightness.The cooling capacity is 9.000

Place the appliance on a flat stable surface and hold at least 30 cm. free space around it.

Make sure the unit is placed in a upright position.

Let the unit, after transport, wait for more than 4 hours befure it is plugged in into the walloutlet.

The air conditioning system cools the air in the room where unit is placed. The absorbed heat

of the conditioned air, should be removed to outside the room where the unit is placed.

During cooling of hot air condenswater will be created. Much of the condensation will be

transported with the warm air to outside. At high humidity not all the condense will be

transported with the warm air to the outside, the water tank must regularly be emptied.

In the chapter "Condensate Drain" is this defined step by step.

There are several ways to transport warm air out of the room:

• Attach the hose (No. 13) in the warm air outlet (No. 10) of the device. Hang the hose

out the window or a door. The cooling capacity will not be optimal because of warm

outside air will flow into the to cool area.

• Drill a hole of 135 mm. diameter in the outer wall and enter the tubing through the

hole. The cool capacity is now optimal. Place the wall cover (No. 14) on the outside

of the wall. When the appliance is out of use, the cover (No. 15) can be placed on

• Place the window spacer in the open section of the window. Insert the hose (No. 13) into

the connection for the hose (No. 12). The cool capacity is optimal. Provide a maximum

distance of 36 cm. the device to the windows or exterior wall.

Make sure that the hose (No. 13) is not

kinked or that the air flow is obstructed.

Never extend the hose (No. 13).

During cooling of hot air, condensation can be created. Much of the condensation will be

transported with the warm air outside. At high humidity not all the condense will be transported

with the warm air to the outside, the water tank must regularly be emptied.

If the condensation tank is full, the water full indicator light on the control panel (No. 2) will light

and a sound goes off, the machine stops automatically. The condensate tank has a maximum

capacity of 1.7 liter.

Turn the knob condensate drain (No. 12) off the spout. Place a container under the spout and

pull the rubber plug from the spout. The water flows out, when the bowl is full, insert the plug,

empty the sump and drain the rest of the water.

If the condensation must be removed continuously, place the condensation drain hose (No. 16)

on the spout. Do remove the rubber plug. The condensate drain hose can be extended with

another hose (not supplied). It can be connected to a drain or be led outside. Make sure this

hose does not go up.17

Always place the plug into a grounded socket.

Press the on/off button (D), the device switches in the following mode:

At room temperatures between 20°C and 23°C the devi ce automatically switches on the Fan

mode. At a room temperature above the 23°C the device automatically switches on the Cool

mode. The display (G) indicates the temperature of the room (between 0°C and 50°C).

Press the on/off button (D) then press the mode button (A) and select the COOL mode, the

indicator COOL lights on, Set the desired temperature to the temperature setting buttons,

button B to set up the temperature and C key to set the temperature down.

The display will return to room temperature. If the temperature is below room temperature, the

compressor turns on and the device starts cooling. The compressor indicator (J) goes on. If the

desired temperature is reached, the fan still works but is the compressor and the

corresponding indicator (J) turn off again. With the speed button (F) select the desired fan

Press the on/off button (D) and then press the mode button (A) and select the FAN mode, the

LED FAN will light. In FAN mode the device does not cool, the device is now used as a fan.

This feature is designed to switch to a certain temperature to be used only as a fan above this

temperature the device will automatically turn to the air conditioning mode (cooling).

Example: Turn the power on by pressing the power button (D),

Select the COOL mode with the mode button(A), set the temperature to 25°C. Then select the

AUTO mode by pressing the mode button (A), the lights COOL and AUTO come on to 25°C FAN function is, from 25 °C the device cools.

If the temperature falls below the 25 ° C the FAN m ode comes on again. Attention! The

minimum set temperature in the AUTO mode is 25 ° C, when a lower temperature is selected,

the device cools only to 25 ° C.

Press the timer function button (H) and set the desired number of hours, from 1 up to 24 hours.

The timer function is available in the cooling, fan and auto mode.

• Set in 2 hours during the off mode, the machine will begin two hours later with the last set

• Set in 2 hours, while the unit is in operation, the device automatically stops 2 hours later.

This feature only works in the cooling mode. Press the sleep function button (I).

The temperature raises in the first and second hours, respectively, 1°C per hour. Then the

device keeps the temperature down. After 12 hours in sleep mode the device will automatically

turn off. When using the sleep mode the unit automatically turns in low fan speed.

Regulating the air flow direction

Turn the vertical louvers left and right by moving the roller on

the air vent. For horizontal louvers, adjust them up and down by

hands directly to control the air flow direction.

The cooling capacity of the unit depends on the following factors:

• All windows and doors must be closed, otherwise the hot air will stay flowing inside .

• If the room temperature is not extremely high and for example, there are many

heat sources in space, such as computers etc.

• Are the dimensions of the area suitable for this device?

The cooling capacity for the AC-5500B is maximal 66 m3.

• Is the heat discharged outwards properly

• Make sure the filters are cleaned regularly.

Always remove the plug from the socket when the device is cleaned.

Clean the outside with a damp cloth. Never use harsh and abrasive cleaners, steel wool or a

scouring pad as this will damage the device. Do not immerse in water or other liquid.
