MANUAL CONTROL FUNCTION

Press the ON/OFF button. Select the desired function by pressing the function selection button. The function selected will change each time the button is pressed: AUTO > COOLING > DEHUMIDIFY > HEAT > VENTILATE. Select the ventilator speed (see chapter F). Adjust the direction of air flow (see chapter F). You can set the desired temperature if you are using the cooling or heat functions (see chapter E). If the remote control does not work, the air conditioner can be operated manually. In this case, you can select either the cooling or heating functions or switch the air conditioner off. Each press of the button ‘manual operation’ changes the function. TIPS!

- The cooling function works optimally when the room to be cooled is exposed to sunlight as little as possible. - Protect the exterior unit against direct sunlight. This saves energy. - We recommend keeping the difference between the exterior and interior temperatures as small as possible. A temperature setting between 20°C and 24° C is most suitable. This will create a comfortable temperature. - Excessive humidity causes discomfort. A relative humidity of approximately 55% is experienced as most comfortable.

Indication green signal on the unit interior display (applies to type TIN 539): - This shows the current and set temperatures. - The room temperature indicated may vary somewhat from the current room temperature. Use it as a reference. Room temperature indication range 21 - 30° C. The temperature to be set varies between 16 - 31° C. Room temperature within indication range: The set temperature (permanently illuminated light) and the room temperature (flashing light) are displayed. Room temperature or set temperature outside the indication range: - If the room temperature or set temperature is 31°C or higher, 30°C will appear on the display. - If the room temperature or set temperature is 21° C or lower, 21° C appears on the display. Room temperature and set temperature are identical: - The corresponding light is activated. Comments relating to the use of the “HEAT” FUNCTION

• The effective operation of the airconditioner depends on the outside temperature.

• Defrost setting; If the outside temperature is extremely low, the unit automatically switches to the defrost setting for 2 to 10 minutes. The operation of the airconditioner is suspended during this period.

• Pre-heating function; When the timer is ON, the airconditioner measures the air temperature 1 hour before the set time and activates the unit in advance if necessary. REMARKS

- The temperature can be set when using the automatic control function (except when dehumidifying), but this is not shown in the display. - If the ambient temperature is too high, it may occur that the set room temperature is not reached.

Comments relating to the use of the ‘DEHUMIDIFY” function• The ventilator speed can not be adjusted when using this function.• In this setting, the ventilators in the interior and exterior sections do notoperate continuously.• This function can not be used at a room temperature of 13 °C or lower. F ADJUSTING VENTILATOR SPEED AND AIRFLOW DIRECTION The ventilator speed adjusts automatically according to the room temperature.Adjusting the ventilator speedYou can change the air flow by pressing the ‘Ventilator speed’ button - the speedwill change each time you press the button (see above).Setting the direction of the air flow- Only adjust the air flow up or down with the remote control.- Adjust the air flow to the left or right manually before activating the device. ATTENTION!

The remote control can be used to adjust the vertical air flow for the followingfunctions:- COOLING and DEHUMIDIFYING, when the airconditioner has been in operation for 1 hour with the air flow directed downwards, the air flow will automatically be adjusted to a position that ensures that no condensation can drip out.- During heating or defrosting, the horizontal blades are set to direct the air flow upwards in order to ensure that you are not annoyed by cold air.- Select the maximum ventilator speed to ensure that the entire room reaches the desired temperature with the minimum of delay. Ventilator setting: Power air flow: LOW Gentle air flowMEDIUM Medium air flowHIGH Powerful air flow Room temperature: Unit starts operating: < 0 °C 50 min. Before set time0 - 5 °C 40 min.

The time must be reset if the power supply is disrupted during the setting procedure. OFF timer button The air conditioner switches off automatically at the set time. ON timer button The air conditioner switches on automatically at the set time.

I MAINTENANCE DURING USE

The air conditioner must be cleaned regularly. Follow these steps: Switch the air conditioner off and pull the plug out of the socket. Clean the interior unit and the remote control with a soft, dry cloth. You can use a slightly damp cloth if the unit is extremely dirty. Clean the air filter regularly. If the interior unit is placed on the roof, the immediate vicinity of the unit must be cleaned regularly in order to prevent dirt from blocking the heat exchanger.

If you are not using the air conditioner for an extended period of time: Run the ventilator for 3 to 4 hours to dry the inside of the air conditioner. Mould will grow if moisture remains in the air conditioner when it is switched off for an extended period of time. Remove the batteries from the remote control. Pull the plug out of the socket Clean the air filter and then replace it. When you want to use the air conditioner again: Clean the air filter and replace it. Check that the air inlet and outlet of both the interior and exterior units are not blocked. Check that the frame of the interior unit is not rusty or damaged. Check that the drainage pipe is not blocked. Check that the exterior unit is ready to operate. Insert the plug in the socket.

J CLEANING AND REPLACING THE FILTERS

Cleaning the air filter Clean the air filter at least once every two weeks. Open the front panel and remove the air filter (do not move the front panel completely to the horizontal position, otherwise it will fall off). Clean the filter with a vacuum cleaner or with water. Remove stubborn dirt with a mild, neutral cleaning agent, diluted in lukewarm water (max. 30° C). Rinse the filter thoroughly with clean water to remove all soap remnants. Dry the filter in the shade. Do not expose it to direct sunlight or dry it by an open fire. Replace the filter and close the front panel.

1Cleaning the deodorising filter Clean the deodorising filter at least once every two weeks. First remove the air filter, followed by the deodorising filter. Hold the deodorising filter by the holder. Do not touch the surface of the filter. Soak the filter and holder in lukewarm water (max. 30° C) for approximately 15 minutes. Add a mild cleaning agent to remove stubborn dirt. Rinse the filter thoroughly with clean water in order to remove all soap remnants. Never scrub or use bleach. Dry the filter in the shade. Replace the deodorising filter, and then the air filter. Replacing the deodorising filter The deodorising filter must be replaced after approximately 1 year. This must be done when the colour of the filter has faded significantly and it does not return to its original state after cleaning. Replacing the air purification filter The air purification filter must be replaced every 4 months. This must be done when the filter is dark in colour.

K PROBLEMS, CAUSES AND SOLUTIONS

If you are unable to solve a problem with the tips listed below, switch the air conditioner off and contact your dealer or service department.

THE AIR CONDITIONER DOES NOT WORK

E Check that the plug is inserted firmly into the socket and the power supply has not been disrupted. Switch the air conditioner back on when the power supply has been re- established. E The timer has been set to a later time. THE AIR CONDITIONER COOLS OR HEATS INSUFFICIENTLY. E The temperature has not been set correctly. Check: Cooling: the set temperature must be lower than the room temperature. Heating: the set temperature must be higher than the room temperature. E The air filter is dirty. Check. E The inlet and/or outlet of the exterior unit is/are blocked. Check. E Environmental factors hinder the effective operation of the air conditioner (e.g. open door, large number of people in the room). Check. THE REMOTE CONTROL DOES NOT WORK. E The batteries have not been placed in the holder correctly. Check (pay attention to the + and – poles). E The batteries are flat. Replace.

The following situations do not indicate a defect:

• The air conditioner does not restart immediately. After it has been switched off, the air conditioner can only be restarted after approximately 3 minutes in order to protect the compressor.

• Slow air flow when the heating function is activated. The air conditioner requires a preparation period before blowing out warm air.

• The heating function does not work for 2 to 10 minutes while the control light is lit. The defrost function has activated – a low exterior temperature and high level of humidity causes ice to form on the exterior unit.

• The interior unit makes a creaking sound. This sound is caused by shrinkage or expansion of the interior unit as a consequence of temperature fluctuations.

• The ventilator stops during dehumidification. Condensation on the heat exchanger re-evaporates, and this increases the relative humidity level. To prevent this, the ventilator of the interior unit stops when the room temperature has dropped sufficiently.

• Sound of flowing water. This sound is caused by the coolant flowing through the pipes.

• The direction of the air flow changes. During cooling/dehumidification the air conditioner automatically changes the direction of the air flow in order to prevent condensation from dripping onto the floor. During heating, the horizontal blade moves automatically to the horizontal setting if the temperature of the expelled air is too low or the defrost function has activated.

• The interior unit makes a rattling sound. This sound is caused by the ventilator or compressor starting.

• The interior unit leaks water. This is caused by condensation on the pipes and heat exchanger of the exterior unit.

• The signal from the remote control is not received. The signal is obstructed by sunlight or bright light on the receiver section of the interior unit.

• Formation of ice on the vertical blades. When the air conditioner is used in an environment with a high humidity level for an extended period of time, condensation may form on the vertical blades. This will turn into ice.M THE GUARANTEE CONDITIONS There is a 24-month guarantee on the air conditioner from the purchase date.
