TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT
Press or hold either Down or Up button until the de-
sired temperature is seen on the display. This tempera-
ture will be automatically maintained anywhere between
62° F (17° C) and 86° F (30° C).
If you want the display to read the actual room tempera-
ture, refer to the note: “To Operate on Fan Only”.
FAN SPEED ADJUSTMENT
Select the Fan Speed in four steps: Auto, Low, Med or
High. Each time the button is pressed, the fan speed
mode is shied. On Dry mode, the fan speed is controlled
at Low automatically.
OPERATING MODE (FUNCTION) SELECTION
To choose operating mode, press the Mode button.
Each time you press the button, a mode is selected in a
sequence that goes from AUTO, COOL, DRY, and FAN. The
indicator light beside will be illuminated and will remain
on once the mode is selected.
USING AUTO FEATURE
When you set the air conditioner in AUTO mode, it will
automatically select cooling or fan only operation de-
pending on the current room temperature and the target
temperature you have set. The air conditioner will con-
trol room temperature automatically. In this mode, the
fan speed cannot be adjusted.
USING DRY MODE
In this mode, the air conditioner will generally operate in
the form of a dehumidifier. Since the conditioned space is a
closed or sealed area, some degree of cooling will continue.
FAN ONLY MODE
Use this function only when cooling is not desired, such
as for room air circulation or to exhaust stale air (on some
models). Remember to open the vent during this function,
but keep it closed during cooling for maximum cooling
eiciency. You can choose any fan speed you prefer.
During this function, the display will show the actual room
temperature, not the set temperature as in the cooling
mode. In Fan Only mode, the temperature is not adjusted.

PMTS — FOLLOW ME (SOME MODELS)
Some models are equipped with a special feature that allows
the remote control to act as a thermostat. If your unit shows
this PMTS LED on the control panel, and you have the accom-
panying LCD remote control then your unit is equipped.
You must activate this feature through the remote control by
pressing the PMTS button. Once activated, it is important to
keep the remote aimed at the air conditioner and place it in
the center of the room for best results.
ENERGY SAVER MODE
This function is available on COOL mode. The fan will con-
tinue to run for 3 minutes aer the compressor shuts o.
The fan then cycles on for 2 minutes at 10-minute intervals
until the room temperature is above the set temperature,
at which time the compressor turns back on and Cooling
Starts. Note that due to modern energy saving regulations,
this mode is on by default and you must turn it o if you
want the fan to run constantly during cooling mode.
SLEEP MODE
In this mode the selected temperature will increase by 2°F
(or 2°C) 30 minutes aer the mode is selected. The tempera-
ture will then increase by another 2°F (or 2°C) aer an addi-
tional 30 minutes. This new temperature will be maintained
for 6 hours before it returns to the originally selected tem-
perature. This ends the Sleep mode and the unit will contin-
ue to operate as originally programmed. The Sleep mode
program can be canceled at any time during operation by
pressing the Sleep button again.
CHECK FILTER
This feature is a reminder to clean the Air Filter for more
eicient operation. The LED (light) will illuminate aer 250
hours of operation. To reset aer cleaning the filter, press
the Check Filter button and the light will go o. See section
under Cleaning and Maintenance for how to clean the filter.
Note: Your filter may need to be cleaned much more oen
in especially dusty environments and may not need to be
cleaned as oen in especially clean environments. The 250
hour indicator is just there as a reminder.

DELAY START/STOP (TIMER)
The timer buttons enable two separate functions: one to
automatically start the unit within a 24 hour period of time
and another to automatically turn o the unit within a 24 hour
period of time. These functions are called, respectively, AUTO
ON and AUTO OFF.
AUTO ON INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Press the TIMER button twice, or until the TIMER ON
LED on the air conditioner's control panel should illumi-
nate. The air conditioner's display shows the last Auto-On
setting (if any). Now you are ready to reset the Auto-On time
to START the operation.
2. Press either the orbuttons to set desired
Auto-On time. Each time you press the button, the time will increase in 30 minute
increments, up to 10 hours, then in 1 hour increments up to 24 hours.
3. Aer setting the TIMER ON, there will be a one-half second delay before the remote
controller transmits the signal to the air conditioner. Then, aer approximately
another 2 seconds, the time setting will disappear from the unit's display and the
set temperature will re-appear on the display window. The Timer ON LED should
remain illuminated.
AUTO OFF INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Press the TIMER button once, or until the TIMER OFF LED on the air condition-
er's control panel should illuminate. The air conditioner's display shows the last
Auto-O setting (if any). Now you are ready to reset the Auto-O time to START the
operation.
2. Press either the orbuttons to set desired Auto-O time. Each time you press
the button, the time will increase in 30 minute increments, up to 10 hours, then in
1 hour increments up to 24 hours.
3. Aer setting the TIMER ON, there will be a one-half second delay before the remote
controller transmits the signal to the air conditioner. Then, aer approximately
another 2 seconds, the time setting will disappear from the unit's display and the
set temperature will re-appear on the display window. The Timer OFF LED should
remain illuminated.
Notes: It is possible to set both and Auto-On and Auto-O program at the same time. All times that are set are
the time from the moment of setting. So if you were to set a delay of 5 hours to turn on and immediately aer
set a delay of 6 hours to turn o, then the unit will operate for a total of 1 hour in 5 hours time from now.
All programs are erased aer their time elapses, so they will not repeat again the next day until reprogrammed.
Important: If you use a separate timer to obtain more control (such as turning on and o at a specific time every
day), the unit will remember its previous mode. It may, however, return to energy saver mode by default. If you do
use a timer, be sure that it is a heavy -duty grounded (three-prong) timer that is rated for the appropriate amper-
age.

STEP 5: SECURING THE WINDOW
To keep the window from
being unintentionally opened
and risk damaging the unit or
injuring passersby, use one
type C screw to fasten the se-
curity bracket to the window.
If your window frame is plastic
(PVC), fasten the bracket to the
side of the window frame (De-
tail 1)If your window is made
of wood, fasten the bracket into the closed upper window sash (Detail 2).
STEP 6: INSULATING FOAM SASH SEAL
Prevent warm or cold
air from entering in
between the partially
opened window and
the closed upper
window by placing the
non-adhesive foam
sash seal in between
the window sash and
the glass pane.
R1 INSULATION INSTALLATION (FOR SOME MODELS)
"R1" is the name given to special additional insulation that applies to Energy Star certi-
fied models manufactured aer a certain cut-o date. If your model fits this criterion,
you will have found a weather stripping foam and additional panels that fit over the
side curtains among the parts
included with your air condi-
tioner.
WEATHER STRIPPING
In order to minimize air
leaks between the room air
conditioner and the window
opening, trim the weath-
er stripping with a proper
length, peel o the protective
backing and plug any gaps if
needed.

CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
SAFETY WARNING
To avoid electric shock, fire, damage, or injury while performing maintenance on your
unit:
Always turn o and disconnect the air conditioner from electric power.
Never submerge the unit in water or spray liquids directly on the unit.
Never use solvents or other flammable or volatile liquids (examples: paint thinner,
acetone, gasoline, etc.) to clean the air conditioner.
PRE-COOLING SEASON UNIT CHECK
Before using your air conditioner in the warm summer months, always perform the
following verifications to ensure reliable, eicient operation:
Check the air inlets and outlets for any foreign objects (example: leaves, sticks, small
toys, etc.)
Check that the electrical cord and socket are not damaged, bent, or fraying.
Check the filter and clean if necessary.
POST-COOLING SEASON UNIT CHECK
Aer using your air conditioner in the warm summer months, always perform the fol-
lowing verifications:
Disconnect the unit electrical power.
Clean the filter and unit casing.
Remove dust and other objects on the unit.
Discard any accumulated water inside the unit (see section about drainage).
LONG-TERM STORAGE
Should you place your unit in long-term storage, perform all of the post-season checks
listed above and perform the following additional steps:
Wrap the electrical cord loosely around the unit.
Cover the unit with a sheet or cloth to prevent dust buildup inside during storage.
• WARNING: Never store the unit up-side down or on its side. This can permanently
damage the compressor.
DISPOSAL INFORMATION
Most unit packaging materials are recyclable. Please dispose of them according to
local recycling guidelines.
If you wish to discard the unit, contact your local authorities for specific appliance
disposal instructions. If the unit is functional and in good repair, but you wish to dis-
pose of it, consider donating it to a local charity.
ENGLISH
–19–
CLEANING THE OUTER HOUSING AND INTAKE GRILLE
If dust has accumulated on the unit, use a so, dry dusting cloth to wipe it o. If grease
or other harder to remove substances is on the unit, use a wrung-out cloth dampened
with warm, soapy water. Use a so brush to clean o the grille.
CLEANING THE FILTER
For energy eicient operation, your filter should be cleaned at least once a month. Units
in dusty environments may require more frequent filter cleaning.
The filter removal handles are located on both sides of the unit (see "Getting to know
your air conditioner" diagram, number F
above).
Remove it by sliding it out.
Use a vacuum cleaner or rinse the filter in
cold water. If the filter is particularly dirty
(such as grease buildup), wash and gently
scrub the filter in a bath of warm (not hot)
soapy water. Let the filter completely dry
in a shady place; exposing the filter to
direct sunlight can cause deformation.
Aer the filter is clean and completely dry, re-insert the filter.
Note: To avoid deformation and fire risk, never dry the filter with a heat source, such as a
hair dryer, fireplace, or heater.
TROUBLESHOOTING
PROBLEM / POSSIBLE CAUSES
THE AIR CONDITIONER DOES NOT FUNCTION AT ALL
Is the power cable properly inserted into a functioning, grounded outlet?
Is there a power failure such as a blown fuse or tripped circuit breaker?
Is the ambient temperature lower than 61°F (16°C)? A safety device prevents the unit
from cooling the room to even lower temperatures.
INSUFFICIENT COOLING
Is the unit temperature set properly?
Is the air filter dirty?
Are doors or windows open?
Is the room directly exposed to sunlight or are there other heat sources in the room?
Are there a large number of people in the room?
ENGLISH
–20–
WATER BUILD-UP IN THE UNIT, SPLASHING NOISE
This is not a problem. This self-evaporative unit is designed allow condensate to
build up in the rear of the unit during cooling and dry modes. The rear fan then runs
through the pool of water, splashing it upon the evaporator coils, helping to cool
them down. This makes the unit more eicient and eliminates the need to hook up a
drain hose.
THE AIR CONDITIONER UNIT STARTS AND STOPS VERY FREQUENTLY.
Verify the rating of your electrical system and outlets. You may need a qualified elec-
trician to troubleshoot and upgrade your electrical circuits if your air conditioner unit
exceeds the rated capacity.
FOG BLOWS OUT DURING COOLING
In warm, high humidity environments this may naturally occur. Continued cooling
