Page 3: Before You Begin
1. BEFORE YOU BEGIN 1.1 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION Our powerful portable air conditioners are great cooling solutions for single rooms, creating a comfortable atmosphere in your space. It also has ventilation and dehumidifying function for circulating air and removal of moisture. They're self-contained systems that do not require any permanent installation allowing you to move to the space in which it is most needed.
Page 4: The Following Should Always Be Observed For Safety
1.3 THE FOLLOWING SHOULD ALWAYS BE OBSERVED FOR SAFETY  This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and above and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards involved.
Page 5 do not allow untrained personnel to attempt to find the cause.  The propane gas used in the unit has no odor.  The lack of smell does not indicate a lack of escaped gas.  If a leak is detected, immediately evacuate all persons from the store, ventilate the room and contact the local fire department to advise them that a propane leak has occurred.
Page 6: For Your Safety
2. FOR YOUR SAFETY Your safety is the most important thing we concerned! WARNING!Please read this manual carefully and fully understand before operating your appliance. 2.1 OPERATIONAL PRECAUTIONS WARNING- to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock or injury to persons or property: ...
Page 7  Unplug the power cord when cleaning or when not in use.  Do not operate with wet hands. Prevent water from spilling onto the unit.  Do not immerse or expose the unit to rain, moisture or any other liquid. ...
Page 8  The unit shall be installed in accordance with national wiring regulations.  Do not use means to accelerate the defrosting process or to clean, other than those recommended by the manufacture.  The appliance shall be stored in a room without continuously operation sources (for example: open flames, an operating gas appliance or an operating electric heater).
Page 9  The appliance shall be stored in a well- ventilated area where room size corresponds to the room area as specified for operation.  The device must be stored in such a way as to avoid any mechanical damage.  WARNING: The appliance must be stored in a room free from open flames (such as a gas appliance in operation) and sources of ignition (for example, an electric heater).
Page 10: Work Procedure
other skilled personnel shall be carried out under the supervision of the person competent in the use of flammable refrigerants. If you don't understand something or need help, please contact the dealer services. 2.2 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS ON SERVICING Please follow these warnings when to undertake the following when servicing an appliance with R290.
Page 11 REFRIGERANT The area shall be checked with an appropriate refrigerant detector prior to and during work, to ensure the technician is aware of potentially flammable atmospheres. Ensure that the leak detection equipment being used is suitable for use with flammable refrigerants, i.e. nons parking, adequately sealed or intrinsically safe.
Page 12 2.2.8 CHECKS TO THE REFRIGERATION EQUIPMENT Where electrical components are being changed, they shall be fit for the purpose and to the correct specification. At all times the manufacturer’s maintenance and service guidelines shall be followed. If in doubt consult the manufacturer’s technical department for assistance.
Page 13: Repairs To Sealed Components
temporary solution shall be used. This shall be reported to the owner of the equipment so all parties are advised. Initial safety checks shall include: that capacitors are discharged: this shall be done in a safe manner to avoid possibility of sparking; that there no live electrical components and wiring are exposed while charging, recovering or purging the system;...
Page 14: Repair To Intrinsically Safe Components
2.2.11 REPAIR TO INTRINSICALLY SAFE COMPONENTS Do not apply any permanent inductive or capacitance loads to the circuit without ensuring that this will not exceed the permissible voltage and current permitted for the equipment in use. Intrinsically safe components are the only types that can be worked on while live in the presence of a flammable atmosphere.
Page 15: Removal And Evacuation
refrigerant used. Leak detection equipment shall be set at a percentage of LFL of the refrigerant and shall be calibrated to the refrigerant employed and the appropriate percentage of gas (25 % maximum) is confirmed. Leak detection fluids are suitable for use with most refrigerants but the use of detergents containing chlorine shall be avoided as the chlorine may react with the refrigerant and corrode the copper pipe-work.
Page 16: Charging Procedures
Flushing shall be achieved by breaking the vacuum in the system with OFN and continuing to fill until the working pressure is achieved, then venting to atmosphere, and finally pulling down to a vacuum. This process shall be repeated until no refrigerant is within the system. When the final OFN charge is used, the system shall be vented down to atmospheric pressure to enable work to take place.
Page 17 being carried out, an oil and refrigerant sample shall be taken in case analysis is required prior to re-use of reclaimed refrigerant. It is essential that electrical power is available before the task is commenced. a) Become familiar with the equipment and its operation. b) Isolate system electrically.
Page 18 k) Recovered refrigerant shall not be charged into another refrigeration system unless it has been cleaned and checked. 2.2.18 LABELLING Equipment shall be labelled stating that it has been de-commissioned and emptied of refrigerant. The label shall be dated and signed. Ensure that there are labels on the equipment stating the equipment contains flammable refrigerant.
Page 19 The recovered refrigerant shall be returned to the refrigerant supplier in the correct recovery cylinder, and the relevant Waste Transfer Note arranged. Do not mix refrigerants in recovery units and especially not in cylinders. If compressors or compressor oils are to be removed, ensure that they have been evacuated to an acceptable level to make certain that flammable refrigerant does not remain within the lubricant.

Page 23 2 Choose your location If tipped more than 45°, allow the unit  to set upright for at least 24 hours before start up. Place the unit on a firm, level surface  in an area with at least 50cm of free space around it to allow for proper air circulation.
Page 24 may provide additional information about the refrigerant odour. 4.3 ATTACH THE EXHAUST HOSE The air conditioner requires being vented outside so that the exhaust air can escape the room which coming from the appliance contains waste heat and moisture. Do not replace or extend exhaust hose which will result in decreased efficiency, even worse shut down the unit due to low backpressure.
Page 25 Step 4: Close your window to secure the kit in place. It needs to hold the windows kit firmly in place, secure the window kit with duct tape if required. It is recommended that the gap between the adapter and the sides of the window should be sealed off for maximum efficiency.
Page 26 Step 6: Adjusting the length of the flexible exhaust hose, and avoid bends in the hose. Then place AC near an electrical outlet.
