This document is an owner's manual for a Midea Air Cooler, model AC100-18B, providing instructions for its installation, operation, and maintenance.

Function Description

The Midea Air Cooler AC100-18B is designed to provide cooling and humidification. It operates by drawing in air, passing it through a honeycomb filter, and then releasing cooler, humidified air. The device includes a water tank and an ice box to enhance the cooling effect. It features multiple fan speeds and an oscillation function to distribute air effectively. The appliance is intended for household use and is equipped with safety instructions to ensure proper handling and disposal.

Usage Features

The air cooler's operation is straightforward, with controls located on the unit's body. Users can activate or deactivate various functions by pressing corresponding keys.

• Power Control: The [OFF] key is used to activate or deactivate the unit.
• Fan Speed Adjustment: The [LOW], [MED], and [HIGH] keys allow users to adjust the fan speed according to their preference, providing flexibility in cooling intensity.
• Oscillation Function: The [OSC.] key activates or deactivates the swing function, which helps to distribute the cool air more broadly across a room.
• Cooling Function: The [COOLER] key activates or deactivates the cooling function, which utilizes the water and ice to provide a more significant cooling effect.

For humidification, it is crucial to maintain the water level in the water tank. The manual advises that the water level should always remain below the MAX indication. If the level drops below the MIN indication, water should be replenished.

The device offers two methods for adding water:

1. Direct Filling: Water can be added directly to the water tank without removing the pump module, provided the tank is at least half empty.
2. Pump Module Detachment: For more thorough filling or cleaning, the pump module can be detached, allowing for easier access to the water tank.

The manual provides a detailed, step-by-step guide for accessing and cleaning the water tank, which is essential for maintaining hygiene and optimal performance. This process involves:

1. Pushing the water tank button to release the tank to a horizontal position.
2. Pulling out half of the tank, which can then be pushed back after adding water.
3. Turning a knob to separate the water tank from the pump module and pipe.
4. Slowly pulling out the water tank completely for cleaning and adding water.
5. After cleaning and refilling, pushing the water tank back into place and securing the pump module with the knob.

Maintenance Features

Regular maintenance is crucial for the longevity and efficient operation of the air cooler. The manual emphasizes that the fan requires little maintenance, but any repairs should be handled by qualified service personnel. Users are specifically advised against attempting to fix the device themselves.

Key maintenance steps include:

• Safety First: Before any cleaning or assembly, the fan must be unplugged from the electrical supply source to prevent accidents.
• Filter Cleaning: To ensure a sufficient air supply and optimal performance, the honeycomb filter and dust filter should be cleaned regularly. This prevents the accumulation of dust and debris that could impede airflow and reduce efficiency.
• Exterior Cleaning: The exterior parts of the air cooler should be wiped with a soft cloth moistened with a mild detergent. After cleaning, any soap film should be thoroughly removed with a dry cloth.
• Avoid Harsh Cleaners: Users are warned against using abrasive detergents or solvents, such as gasoline or thinner, as these can scratch the surface of the appliance.
• Prevent Liquid Ingress: It is critical to prevent water or any other liquid from entering the motor housing or other interior parts of the device, as this could cause damage or create a safety hazard.
• Plastic Parts Cleaning: Plastic components should be cleaned with a soft cloth moistened with mild soap, followed by thorough drying to remove any soap residue.

The manual also includes important safety instructions, such as ensuring the supply cord is replaced by a qualified person if damaged, and supervising children to prevent them from playing with the appliance. It also highlights the importance of unplugging the appliance during filling and cleaning and prior to any maintenance. The product's correct disposal is also addressed, indicating that it should not be disposed of with general household waste but rather recycled responsibly through designated collection systems or by contacting the retailer. This ensures environmental safety and promotes the sustainable reuse of materials.
