This document is an instruction manual for a Cool Living Portable Air Conditioner, model #CLA018B-08KR. It provides detailed information on the appliance's features, installation, operation, maintenance, and troubleshooting.
The Cool Living Portable Air Conditioner is a multi-functional appliance designed for indoor use, offering cooling, dehumidification, and fan functions. It is equipped with a continuous water drainage capability. The unit features an LCD display on the control panel for easy operation and comes with a high-quality LCD remote control for convenient remote operation. The remote control can be stored on the back of the unit, utilizing a user-friendly design. The appliance also includes an air filtration capability and a timing switch function, allowing users to program automatic turn-on or turn-off times. In the event of a power loss, the unit has a protection function that automatically restarts the compressor after three minutes, along with various other protection functions to ensure longevity and safe operation.
The manual specifies that the length of the exhaust hose should be between 280mm and 1,500mm (11 to 59 inches), which is based on the air conditioning's specifications. It explicitly warns against using extension tubes or replacing the hose with different types, as this could lead to malfunction and overheating. The unit requires a 2-person lift for movement and should be kept upright for at least 24 hours before use. The appliance operates with a compressor that has a 3-minute delay booting protection function to increase its service life. The remote control requires AAA 1.5VDC batteries (not included). The recommended operating temperature range for cooling mode is 44-95 °F (7-35 °C), and for dehumidification mode, the ambient temperature should be greater than 62 °F (17 °C).
The portable air conditioner is designed for easy movement within a room, provided it remains in an upright position and is placed on a flat, dry surface. Installation involves screwing the heat pipe assembly into the exhaust port on the rear panel and mounting the window sealing plate assembly to a window. The window sealing plate assembly can be adjusted horizontally and vertically to fit the window frame. When positioning the unit, a minimum distance of 50 cm (approximately 19 inches) from walls or other objects is required to ensure proper ventilation. The control panel and remote control offer intuitive operation with dedicated buttons for power, mode selection (cooling, fan, dry), fan speed (high, medium, low), temperature adjustment (UP/DOWN keys), and timer settings. The temperature can be displayed in both Celsius (°C) and Fahrenheit (°F) by simultaneously pressing the UP and DOWN keys on the control panel or using the dedicated button on the remote. The swing function allows users to fix the louver in their desired position. The unit also features a sleep mode for quiet operation.
Regular maintenance is crucial for the appliance's efficiency and longevity. Before any cleaning or maintenance, the unit must be turned off and unplugged. The surface of the machine should be cleaned with a wet, soft cloth, avoiding chemical solvents like benzene, alcohol, or gasoline, which can damage the surface. The air filter screen needs to be cleaned at least once every two weeks, or more frequently if it becomes clogged with dust, to maintain the air conditioning's effectiveness. To clean the filter screen, the wedging block of the filter screen frame should be clasped and pulled down to remove the frame. The EVA filter screen can then be removed by unscrewing four screws. It should be washed in warm water with a neutral detergent (around 40°C / 104°F) and dried in the shade.
For postseason storage, the unit requires thorough preparation. First, the rotary knob and rubber stopper should be unscrewed to drain all water from the water pan into other containers or by tilting the unit. After draining, the machine should be run in low-wind ventilation mode until the drainage pipe is dry to prevent mildew. Once dry, the unit should be turned off, unplugged, and the power cord wrapped around its designated post. The rubber stopper and rotary knob should be reinstalled. The exhaust pipe should be removed and stored safely. Finally, the air conditioner should be covered with a plastic bag and stored in a dry place, out of reach of children, with dust control measures in place. Batteries should be removed from the remote control before storage. The manual emphasizes ensuring all machine components are kept in a safe place for easy locating.
The unit also has several protection functions, including frost protection (automatic status entry when exhaust pipe temperature is too low), overflow protection (an alarm sounds and "FL" is displayed when the water pan exceeds the warning level, requiring manual drainage), automatic defrosting (with a flashing heating symbol), and automatic thermal protection (compressor and lower motor stop during heating mode if temperature is too high, restarting when temperature recovers). Troubleshooting tips are provided for common issues such as the unit not working, poor cooling effect, loud noise, compressor not working, remote control issues, and error codes "E1" (room temperature sensor abnormal) and "E2" (pipe temperature sensor abnormal). For problems not listed or if recommended solutions don't work, users are advised to contact a professional service organization.
