Usage Features
- Control Panel & Remote Control: The unit can be operated via a control panel on the device or a remote control. The remote control features temperature selectors (up/down), fan speed selector, mode selector, hourly programming (timer), and an On/Off switch.
- Modes of Operation:
- Cooling: Adjust temperature between 17°C and 30°C. Fan speed can be set to LOW, MEDIUM, HIGH, or AUTO. In AUTO mode, the machine adjusts cooling capacity based on room temperature relative to the set temperature.
- Heating: Adjust temperature between 15°C and 25°C. Fan speed can be selected.
- Dehumidification: In this mode, wind speed is not adjustable (locked in low wind operation), and the exhaust hose is not required.
- Fan Speed: Selectable between LOW, MEDIUM, HIGH, or AUTO.
- Programmable Timer (TIMER-ON/TIMER-OFF): Allows users to set a time (1-24 hours) for the unit to automatically turn on or off.
- Automatic Evaporation and Drainage: In refrigeration mode, the machine automatically evaporates condensed water and drains it out of the exhaust hose, eliminating the need for manual drainage, provided the drain plug is installed.
- Drainage (Dehumidification/Heating Mode): For continuous drainage in dehumidification or heating mode, the plug "A" in the drain hole should be removed, and an appropriate drainage pipe installed.
- Water Full Alarm (E4 Code): When the internal water tank is full, a water indicator illuminates, followed by an "E4" code on the display, and the compressor stops. Draining the water through the drainage pipe will clear the error and resume operation.
- LED Display: Shows the currently set temperature, timing time, or fault codes.
- Safety Precautions:
- Ensure constant ventilation and that inlet/outlet are not blocked.
- Operate on a horizontal surface to prevent water leakage.
- Do not operate in explosive or corrosive atmospheres.
- Wait at least 3 minutes before restarting after shutdown to protect the compressor.
- Use a separate, dedicated power supply.
- Avoid direct sunlight and heat sources to improve refrigeration capacity.
- Close doors and windows during dehumidification.
Maintenance Features
- Air Filter Cleaning: The strainer (air filter) should be cleaned every two weeks. To clean, remove the strainer overlay, soak it in warm water (about 40°C) with a neutral detergent, rinse off the lotion, and dry it in a cool place before re-installing.
- Storage (Quarterly Preservation):
- Unplug the unit and run it for half a day until the water is blown dry.
- Shut down and unplug the power.
- Wipe the surface of the machine with a damp cloth and dry it with a dry cloth.
- Roll up the power cord.
- Cover the machine in a dry place with a plastic bag.
- Exhaust Hose Removal: The exhaust hose can be removed by rotating it in the arrow direction for both cooling and heating configurations.
- Self-Diagnosis Function: The unit provides light prompts for self-diagnosis, displaying error codes (E1, E2, E4) to indicate specific issues such as temperature sensor shorts or a full water tank, guiding users or technicians on troubleshooting steps.
