Dehumidifying capacity 31.2 l/day Fan speed 2 Timer 1 - 12 hours Thermostat 18 – 32°C Dimensions (WxDxH) 40 x 37.7 x 75 cm Net weight 31 kg Important note: Consumption values were measured at a room temperature of 27°C humidity of 60%. Important safety instructions Prevention of accidents Check that the electrical connection is correct. Check that the device is installed correctly in accordance with the Operating Instructions. Keep all children and any persons under the influence of medication or alcohol well away from the device. Never use the device in the vicinity of bath tubs, showers or wash basins. Never place any objects on the air vents. Never place closer than 50 cm to the wall. Close the window curtains whenever there is strong sunlight or adjust the venetian blinds accordingly. Keep the air filter clean. Under normal conditions the filter requires cleaning once a month. Since the air filter also catches very small particles of dust, it may be necessary to clean it more frequently. Never operate the device without the air filter. When you start the device, set the fan to a high speed and the thermostat to the highest cooling setting. Reduce to LOW COOLING later and set the THERMOSTAT to the desired temperature. Additional instructions: Never use an extension cable or an auxiliary plug to which another device is connected in addition to the air conditioner. In the cooling function the warm exhaust air must be transferred outside by the hose. An opening in the wall or window is therefore essential for the exhaust air set included in delivery. Always pull out the mains plug after use or before starting any maintenance work. Ensure that the device never comes into contact with any chemicals. All work of maintenance or repair must be performed by an electrician or cooling system specialist only.

LCD indicator panelSwitching the device on and offPress the On/Off switch. The device starts upautomatically. If the ambient temperature: is higher than 23°C the device will run in cooling mode; if it is between 20°C and 23°C the device will run in fan mode.The status of the device, or mode in which it isrunning, will be shown by the corresponding LEDs(see indicator panel).Note: The “Compressor on” LED (COMP) only lightsup when the compressor is actually running. TheLCD indicator panel shows the current roomtemperature.To switch the device off, press the On/Off switchagain.Selecting the modePress the “Mode” selector (MODE) in the sequence“Automatic”, “Cool”, “Fan”. The LED for the selectedmode lights up (see indicator panel).Setting the set-point temperaturePress the “Warmer” selector (TEMP.UP) or “Cooler”(TEMP.DOWN) to set your desired set-pointtemperature. If you press the “Warmer” or “Cooler”selector, the LCD indicator panel will show yourdesired set-point temperature. Otherwise the LCDindicator panel always shows the current roomtemperature. The device’s cooling mode is set to24°C.Selecting the fan speedPress the “Fan speed” selector (SPEED) to set thedesired fan speed.The LED for the mode lights up (see indicator panel).If the device is in “Automatic mode” (AUTO) the fanspeed will be selected automatically by the device independency on the room temperature. Thecorresponding LED lights up. The “Fan speed”(SPEED) is deactivated.Setting the timerPress the switch for the “Timer” (TIMER) to set thedesired operating time (1 - 12 h). The “Timer”(TIMER) LED lights up. If the timer is set, the devicestarts automatically. If you press the “Timer” switch,the time you have set will be shown in the LCDindicator panel. If the timer has not been switchedon, the device will run continuously.If you press the switch for the “Timer” (TIMER)without any of the other modes being switched onyou can set the time that the device is to start up.If, for example, the timer shows “2”, this means thatthe device will start up automatically in 2 hours time.All modes and functions can be set using thesupplied remote control.The remote control requires two MICRO (AAA)batteries.In order to protect the compressor, it only starts up 3minutes after the device starts up. The same applieswhen the device is switched off.The cooling system switches itself off whenever theroom temperature is below the value set on thethermostat. The air circulation/ventilation fancontinues to run as set. If the room temperatureincreases again, the cooling system switches onagain.

The horizontal direction of the air flow is determined by the horizontal ventilation grille. It has to be adjusted by hand.

2. Adjusting the vertical ventilation grille:

INSTALLING THE EXHAUST AIR HOSE

Use only the supplied exhaust air hose. The length of the exhaust air hose can be varied from between 300 mm to 1500 mm. For the most effective cooling the hose should be as short as possible. Avoid kinks are excessive bends in the hose so that the exhaust air can be transferred out without hindrance. If you ignore this advice, the device as a whole may overheat and shut down. This could result in damage to the device. Warning! The length of the exhaust air hose is matched to the technical specifications of the device. Never extend the hose as this could lead to malfunctions or faults on the device. A) Installing the exhaust air hose through an open window

Foam material (15)Foam material (14) 50 cm Right Right Wrong Anleitung MKA 3501 E SPK 1 02.12.2004 10:16 Uhr Seite 14Use the foam parts and shorten them if required. Guide the exhaust air hose through the opening in the foam to the outside. Secure the window so that the foam is kept firmly in place. Note: Take appropriate precautions to prevent unauthorized entry through the window. B) Installation of the exhaust air hose through the window pane or the wall Cut or drill a hole of approx. 130 mm diameter though the window pane or the wall. Insert the bushing ring from the outside to the inside and fasten. Feed the exhaust air hose through the bushing ring. When the system is not being used, fit the cap on the bushing ring on the outside. C) Draining off the condensation water with the water tank ALL OF THE CONDENSATION WATER MUST BE

DRAINED OFF BEFORE YOU EVER RELOCATE

OR STOP USING THE DEVICE: Draining off the condensation water with the tank. Note on MKA 2000 M When the condensation water tank is full the “Condensation water tank full” indicator lights up and the compressor switches off automatically. Only the fan motor continues to run. The cooling function stops. Note on MKA 3501 E When the condensation water tank is full the compressor and the fan motor shut down. The “COMP” LED flashes. Empty the tank as described below:

1. Pull out the mains plug.

2. Slide the tank (1) under the drainage screw (2).

5. The condensation water drains out into the drip

6. Once the condensation water has been completely

emptied, fit the bung (3) and the drainage screw (2) back on again.

7. The device is then ready to be used again.

D) Draining off the condensation water with the condensation water hose

4. Fit the condensation water hose and secure with

5. The drainage hose can be extended with a hose

with a diameter of 18mm. If you do so, make sure you use a suitable connector. Note: The drainage hose must run to the outside with a

MKA 3501 E The LED “COMP.” Does not flash because the tank cannot become full any more. Replacing the carbon filter

1. Take out the filter frame

2. Remove the filter fastener from the filter frame

3. Take the carbon filter out of the bag

4. Place the carbon filter in the filter frame

5. Fasten the filter with the filter fastener

6. Slide in the filter frame

1. Always pull out the mains plug first to avoid an

electric shock or risk of fire.

2. Use only gentle cleaner and a soft cloth to clean

the filter and the housing. Never use aggressive media, petrol, alcohol or thinner. Only fit the filter back in place when thoroughly dry.

3. At the end of the season, please empty the water

tank, roll up the power cable, clean the filter and the housing, then fit the filter back in place when dry, and pack the device back in the original box for storage. Never place any heavy objects on the device.
