This document is an owner's manual for an LG portable air conditioner, model LP1015WNR. It provides comprehensive instructions for installation, operation, maintenance, and troubleshooting, ensuring users can effectively utilize and care for their appliance.

Function Description:

The LG portable air conditioner is designed to provide high-efficiency cooling with the added convenience of portability. It functions as a consumer comfort appliance, primarily intended for household use to cool rooms. The unit works by drawing in air, cooling it, and then discharging the conditioned air into the room, while venting exhaust air outside through a window installation kit. It also features a dehumidifying mode to remove excess moisture from the air. The air conditioner is equipped with an integrated circuit breaker for safety, which should be tested periodically.

Usage Features:

The air conditioner is designed for ease of use, featuring an intuitive control panel and a remote controller. The digital display on the control panel shows the set temperature and operating mode, while simple push buttons allow for quick setting adjustments. The remote controller provides the convenience of adjusting temperature and operating functions from a distance.

Key operational modes include:

POWER: Turns the air conditioner ON or OFF.
MODE: Allows selection between Cool, Dry (dehumidify), and Fan modes.
FAN: Adjusts the fan speed (High, Medium, Low) in Cool and Fan modes.
TEMP: Adjusts the set temperature.
TIMER: Sets a delay for the unit to turn ON or OFF, ranging from 1 to 24 hours. This feature allows users to program the air conditioner to operate according to their schedule, saving energy.
SLEEP: Gradually increases the set temperature by 1°F every 2 hours to promote comfortable sleep.
°C/°F (CELSIUS AND FAHRENHEIT EXCHANGE BUTTON): Switches the temperature display between Celsius and Fahrenheit.
CONTINUOUS: Keeps the unit running without a set temperature, useful for continuous operation.
AUTO RESTART: In the event of a power failure, the unit will resume its previous settings once power is restored.

The unit's portability is enhanced by swiveling casters and integrated handles, making it easy to move across various floor surfaces. For optimal performance, it is recommended to maintain at least 20 inches of air space on all sides of the unit for good air circulation. The air discharge louver can be manually adjusted horizontally and vertically to direct airflow where needed.

Installation:

Installation involves preparing the unit, selecting an appropriate location near a window, and attaching the exhaust hose and diffuser to a window installation kit. The manual provides detailed instructions for installing the window vent panel and extensions in both vertical sliding windows and casement style windows. It emphasizes that the exhaust hose length is specifically designed for the product and should not be replaced or extended to prevent malfunctions.

Maintenance Features:

Regular maintenance is crucial for the air conditioner's longevity and efficient operation. The manual outlines several key maintenance tasks:

Water Drainage: The unit has an internal water collection tank. For continuous dehumidifying (Dry mode), a drain plug and exhaust hose can be used to direct water to a suitable drain location. Before storing the unit, the bottom drain port should be used to completely drain any residual water from the collection tank.
Cleaning the Case: The exterior case should be wiped with a slightly damp cloth and then dried. Harsh detergents, gasoline, benzene, thinner, or abrasive cleaners should be avoided as they can damage the finish. Water should never be poured onto or into the air conditioner to prevent damage to internal components and electrical hazards.
Cleaning the Air Filter: The air filter should be cleaned every two weeks, or more frequently depending on indoor air quality. A dirty filter can reduce airflow and efficiency. The filter can be pulled out, cleaned with a vacuum cleaner, or washed in warm water with a mild detergent if heavily soiled. It must be completely dry before reinstallation. The air conditioner should not be operated without the air filter in place.
Storing the Air Conditioner: For extended periods of non-use, the water collection tank should be completely drained, the air filter cleaned and reinstalled, and batteries removed from the remote. The unit should be stored in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and excessive dust. Before reusing, the filter and drain cap should be checked, the power cord inspected for damage, and new batteries placed in the remote.

The manual also includes a troubleshooting section to help users diagnose and resolve common issues before calling for service, such as the unit not starting, not cooling properly, or displaying error codes like "FL" (full water tank) or "E1," "E2," "E4" (thermistor or coil sensor issues).
