Compressor Protection
After powering on, or a restart, there is a three minute delay before the compressor
starts to operate. This helps to prolong the life of the compressor.
There is an automatic frost protection mode which once the temperature of the exhaust
has risen to a safe level normal operation will resume.
WATER DRAINAGE
• This machine has two drainage methods: manual drainage and continuous
drainage.
Manual Drainage
• The air conditioner has an internal water tank to collect water that accumulates
during the cooling process. This tank will need to be emptied periodically.
• When the internal water tank is full the air conditioner will go into standby mode,
the compressor will stop and all the key functions will be disabled and the
warning LED will illuminate. The water tank will need to be emptied before normal
operation can be resumed.
• Unplug the air conditioner from the mains supply.
• Place a shallow container under the drainage outlet on the rear of the unit to
collect the water. Use this only for temporary drainage of the unit. Do not allow the
water to drip continuously into the container, as it will overow.
• Remove the plug cap and the drainage plug to drain the tank.
• When the tank is empty, ret the drainage plug and cap.
• Reconnect the air conditioner to the mains supply and press the POWER button
on either the front panel or the remote control. The air conditioner will restart and
operate normally.
Continuous Drainage
• Remove the upper plug cap and the drainage plug and attach the drain hose to the
outlet and place the open end into a larger uid container.
• In dehumidifying mode this will allow longer operation without the frequent standby
and manual draining of the water as a larger container can be used.
The water level will need monitoring to avoid overow, unless the pipe can be
placed into a waste water drain.
NOTE: the whole pipe length must not at any
point be higher than the output or it will not
drain.
