Investigate the following possible causes:

THE AIR CONDITIONER DOES NOT FUNCTION AT ALL

1. Is the power cable properly inserted into a functioning, grounded outlet?
2. Is there a power failure such as a blown fuse or tripped circuit breaker?
3. Is the timer set to «TIMER ON» mode? Disable the timer to immediately start operations.
4. Is the ambient temperature lower than 61^ F ( 16^ C)? A safety device prevents the unit from cooling the room to even lower temperatures.

HEATING OR COOLING IS INSUFFICIENT

1. Is the room temperature set properly?
2. Is the air filter dirty?
3. Are doors or windows open in the room?
4. Is the room directly exposed to sunlight?
5. Are there heat sources within the room?
6. Are there a large number of people in the room?

REMEDIES

THE AIR CONDITIONER DOES NOT RESTART IMMEDIATELY AFTER TURNING IT OFF.

The unit can not be restarted for 3 minutes to allow the condenser to cool and avoid risk of fire. Wait a few minutes before restarting the unit.

FOG IS BLOWN OUT DURING COOLING

In warm, high humidity environments this may naturally occur. Continued cooling will remove excess humidity from the room and the fog will disappear.

THE UNIT EMITS A STRANGE SMELL

This may be caused by cigarette smoke or other residues from cooking and other living activities that remain in the air conditioning unit. Clean the filter.

THERE IS A «SQUEEZING» NOISE

The cycling of the refrigerant inside the unit can temporarily cause this noise.

THERE IS A «PATTING» NOISE

This is often caused by heat expansion in the plastic parts.

THE REMOTE CONTROL DOESN'T WORK

Ensure the remote control has a clear line-of-sight to the operating panel on the unit and ensure the sensors are not obstructed by curtains or other objects. Ensure the remote control has fresh, working batteries.

THERE IS MOISTURE/CONDENSATION AT THE AIR EXHAUST

High humidity environments may cause condensation at the air flow output. Wipe the condensation off with a sponge.

If any of the following phenomena occur despite the above troubleshooting techniques, please turn off the unit and disconnect the power cord immediately and contact technical support or a qualified technician:

1. The fuse blows or circuit breaker trips frequently.
2. The power cable is abnormally hot.
3. The insulation of the power cable is ripped, shred or torn.
4. The unit controls do not work.
5. The unit produces abnormal noises.
