Electrical Connections - DeLonghi AIR CONDITIONER Instructions Manual

• Refrigerant gas may be odourless.
• The appliance must be installed, used and
stored in a room with a surface area greater
than 15 m².
• This appliance contains about 300 g of R290
refrigerant gas.
• R290 refrigerant gas complies with European
environmental directives.
Do not perforate any of the components in
the refrigerant circuit.
• If the appliance is installed, used or stored
in an unventilated room, the room must be
such as to prevent stagnation of possible
leaks of refrigerant gas as there could be a
danger of fire or explosion hazard should the
refrigerant come into contact with electric
heaters, stoves or other sources of ignition.
• The appliance must be stored in such a way
as to prevent mechanical faults.
• Persons working on a refrigerant circuit must
have the relative authorisation issued by an
accredited body certifying their competence
to handle refrigerants in compliance with a
standard assessment recognised by sector
associations.
• All repairs must be carried out in accordance
with the manufacturer's recommendations.
Maintenance and repairs requiring the
assistance of other qualified personnel
must be carried out under the supervision
of specialists in the use of inflammable
refrigerants.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

Before plugging the appliance into the mains
socket, check that:
• the mains power supply corresponds to the
value indicated on the rating plate on the
back of the appliance;
• the power socket and electrical circuit are
adequate for the appliance;
• the mains socket matches he plug. If this is
not the case, have the plug replaced;
• the mains socket is adequately earthed.
Failure to follow these important safety
instructions absolves the manufacturer of all
liability.
WHAT IS THE WATER-AIR PINGUINO
During the summer, you feel comfortable at a
temperature of between 24 and 27° C with a rela-
tive humidity of about 50%.
An air conditioner removes excess moisture and
heat from the room where it is located.
Compared with wall mounted models, portable
air conditioners have the advantage that they can
be moved from one room to another in the home
or be transported from one building to another.
Hot air from the room is passed through a coil
cooled by refrigerant gas. Excess heat and moi-
sture are removed before the air is re-emitted
into the room.
In single unit models, a small part of this air is
used to cool the refrigerant gas and then, when
hot and damp, is discharged outside.
In exclusive De'Longhi water-air models, the
heat is removed from the room through the coo-
ling effect of the water which is obviously much
greater than air.
This gives this air conditioner unbeatable cooling
efficiency.
WHAT IS THE PINGUINO INvERTER
The Inverter technology has been designed to of-
fer the best comfort with optimised energy con-
sumption. It guarantees very high cooling power
to rapidly reach the set temperature, which is
then maintained constant over time.
This technology is essentially based on an elec-
tronic device that allows frequency variations of
the electric motor, to adjust the rotation speed of
the compressor and obtain a modulation of the
cooling power.
This device eliminates the sequence of On – Off
required by conventional air conditioners to keep
a fixed room temperature, with consequential
high temperature fluctuations around the set
temperature and longer time gaps before it is
reached.
The Pinguino Inverter always operates at the
optimum cooling capacity and the maximum
energy efficiency as the power consumption is
limited to effective requirements, both in periods
of average and low thermal load (morning or
evening), and during the hotter and more hu-
mid times (middle of the day), when the Inverter
technology is especially valuable.
