Cool Dehumidify Fan

The settings are adjusted with Mode Control button. A light will indicate which setting is currently being used.

Cool Mode

When cool mode is selected, the indicator light will shine green. During the cooling mode the air is cooled and hod air is exhausted to the outside air through the exhaust tube. Adjust fan speed air through the temperature to suit your desired comfort level.

Note: The air exchange hoses must vent outside the room when using cool Mode.

When turning on the unit for the first time after plugging it into an electrical outlet, the unit will start in a low fan cool mode.

Care and Cleaning Guide

• Always unplug your air conditioner before cleaning.

Remove the excess water from the filter by gently shaking the filter. This will remove dust and particles trapped in the filter. After cleaning, reinstall the filter. DO NOT use your air conditioner without the air filter in place.
• To clean the cabinet, DO NOT use harsh chemicals, abrasives, ammonia, chlorine, bleach, concentrated detergents, solvents or metal scouring pads. Some of these chemicals may dissolve, damage and/or discolor your air conditioner.
• Always use a soft cloth dampened with water or a mild soap and water solution to wipe the front of the cabinet. Wipe dry with a soft cloth.
