At the same time, the “Water Full” indi- cator comes on. An alarm will also sound. When the tank is full, drain the water as shown in the page concer- ning “DRAINAGE”. You may also use the unit without having to empty the tank so often by using “continuous drainage”, please also refer to the page about “DRAINAGE”. Heating function (11 HP, 13 HP models) Thanks to the presence of the heat pump the air in the room can be heated. The Exhaust Pipe must be still fitted to allow the cold air to be removed in this mode & used in the usual way. Also please fix the drainage to be continuous drainage (i.e. drain the water by water tube), because the con- densed water will be collected quickly. Under this system, the machine can run at HIGH, MEDIUM or LOW speed. ENGLISH31 Remote control

Fig. 15) All the above functions can also be performed with

he supplied remote control. This remote control requires 2 pcs AAA batteries to operate (battery is not supplied along with the unit). Self-diagnosis This machine is equipped with self-diagnosis function. If something is wrong in the machine, the LED will show the word “E1” or “E2”. - E1 means the sensor wire for room temperature does not connect well (this wire is locatedin the center of the evaporator). - E2 means the sensor wire for anti-frost does not connect well (this wire is located at the side of evaporator). As this time, please call your service centre. Please DO NOT dismantle the machine by yourselves in any case. “Efficiency boost” mode The unit has a “Efficiency boost” function: you have to fill the lateral tank with 2,5 l max of water: the energy ef- ficiency will increase. To ensure that the appliance works properly in “Efficiency boost” mode, make sure that the tank is filled. The procedure is as follows. (Fig.16) ON/OFF

1- Open the water tank.

2- Fill the water (max.

2.5L) please pay attention on the water level of the see- through window beneath the water tank.

tank back into space. ENGLISH32

NOTE: This “Efficiency boost” feature by adding water is proposed to do after one hour operation and the

ater should NOT be over 2.5L, otherwise, the “water full” indicator will light in red and the unit will stop wor- king. This action should only be performed while the power is on, in order for the “water full” alarm to work, also

lease pay attention on the water level of the see-through window beneath the water gate. In case the “water full” indicator is in red, please drain the water from the drain point at the back side of the unit until the red light goes out. The unit should work again now. IMPORTANT

1. To prolong the compressor's life, after switch-off of the unit, please wait for 3 minutes (at least) before re-

2. The cooling system will switch off if the ambient temperature is lower than the set one. The ventilation, howe-

ver, keeps working on the set level. If the ambient temperature rises above the selected level, the cooling will return to work.

3. On the contrary, the heating will switch off if the ambient temperature is higher than the set one (still, the

ventilation keeps working on the set level). As the ambient temperature drops below the selected level, the heating will return to work.

4. This machine is equipped with ANTI-FROST function. While using the heating function during low tempera-

ture, sometimes the heating will stop for a while in order to melt the frost. As this occurs, just wait for the hea- ting returns to work. Drainage When the unit is operating in Cooling or Dehumidify ( DRY) mode, humidity extracted from the air is collected in an internal tank. If the tank reaches full, the compressor and motor cut out automatically. At the same time, the “Water Full” indicator comes on. An alarm will also sound. When the tank is full, carry out the following in- structions:

1. Turn off the air conditioner and avoid moving it when full.

2. Position a container (a water tray for example) underneath the drain hole.

3. Remove the drain knob & rubber plug from the drain hole and allow the water to drain out.

4. When the container is almost full, replace the rubber plug in the drain hole and empty the water tray.

5. Repeat until the unit is emptied.

6. Replace the rubber plug and tighten the drain knob firmly.

7. Switch on the unit - the full water or compressor operating indicator should not be flashing.

Should you prefer to use the appliance without having to empty the tank often, proceed as follows : - Remove the drain knob and rubber plug and retain for future use. - Connect the drain tube supplied to the water outlet as shown and locate the other end into a drain. - The drain tube may be extended by adding an extension tube and using a suitable connector.
