•

The air conditioner should be installed in a dry place where there are no draughts.

•

Condensation from the air conditioner must be drained to an appropriate location.

•

Do not install in a location where flammable gas leaks are possibility.

•

Using in locations where the air is salty such as beside the sea or near hot spas, or
where sulphurous gas is generated, may lead to a malfunction. Please consult your dealer.

•

Ensure that the wall is strong enough to support the unit.

•

There should not be any obstacles surrounding the unit.

•

Prepare the installation hole slightly bigger than cabinet size.

1) PREPARE CHASSIS

• Remove chassis locking bracket by loosening the screw.
• Slide the chassis out from the cabinet.

2) Place cabinet into opening and secure it by wood screws or nails.

• The cabinet should be installed tilted slightly lower to the rear

for necessary condensate drainage. (Max. 10mm).

3) Slide Chassis into the cabinet which installed the above 2).

• The tubings or ducting part should not touch the cabinet.

4) Lock the chassis into cabinet by chassis locking bracket.
5) Place FRONT GRILLE onto CABINET by screws.

• To place the grille, hook top of grille onto top of cabinet, push bottom of grille

in until it snaps into place. Secure the Front Grille with the screws at the right,
left and centre of the grille.

To get the maximum cooling efficiency this air conditioner is designed to splash the condensate on the condenser coil.
This method is called “Slinger-Up System”.
If the splashing sound annoys you, you can provide an outside drain by using the following procedure which may, however cause
a small loss of performance.
1. Slide out the chassis from the cabinet.
2. Remove the rubber plug from the body base plate.
3. Install the drain pan prepared in the accessory kit to the corner of the cabinet with 2 screws.
4. Connect the drain hose to the outlet on the drain pan bottom.
5. Slide the chassis into its original place in the cabinet.
Note: Drain hose or tubing can be purchased locally to satisfy your particular needs.

Set the Thermostat Control Knob at the
desired setting. (Usually “ 

 ~ 

  ” is a

recommended setting position.) If the room
temperature is unsatisfactory after a reasonable
amount of time, turn the control knob clockwise
to cool the room more, or anticlockwise to cool
the room less.

• When the Thermostat Control Knob is set
to  “ 

  ”, moisture may freeze onto the coils

and prevent effective cooling. If this happens,
turn the knob to “ 

  ” HIGH FAN, and the

thermostat control knob anticlockwise. This will
quickly defrost the cooling coil so that normal
cooling can be resumed.

For fixed side-to-side air direction, set the
Air Swing Switch to “   ” ON until the desired
air direction is obtained, then move it to “    ”
OFF.
For continuous side-to-side air circulation, set
the Air Swing Switch to “ 

  ” ON and leave

it there.
