INSTALLATION
WARNING: NEVER OPERATE THE AIR CONDITIONER WITHOUT THE AIR FILTER
Your Whynter portable air conditioner is equipped with a washable pre-filter and an Activated Carbon Filter.
The washable pre-filter removes large particles such as dust, pet hair and dander.
The Activated Carbon filter is designed to remove smoke and other odors. It is recommended you replace the
Activated Carbon filter every 2-3 months or as needed. Follow the steps below to install the filters.
1. Pull out the washable pre-filter
2. Attach the activated carbon filter into the air intake frame
3. Once the activated carbon filter is secured, reinstall the washable pre-filter frame into the unit
WATER DRAINAGE
The dehumidifying capacity of this unit is 70 pints per day. The patented self-evaporating function of the ARC-
101CW unit fully exhausts all condensation automatically in most environments when humidity is less than 70%.
Areas with more than 70% humidity, the self-evaporating function can still exhaust about 98% of the moisture and
the remaining 2% of moisture will be collected in the water tank of the air conditioner.
When there is excess water condensation inside the unit, the air conditioner stops running and illuminates the
Stop light (refer to page 8). This Stop light indicates that the water condensation needs to be drained using the
following procedures:
• Manual drainage
Carefully move the unit to a drain location, remove the bottom drain plug and let the water drain. Replace the
drain plug and plug in unit to resume operation.
• Continuous drainage
Remove the upper drain plug from the back of the unit and install the drain hose (sold separately). Place the open
end of the hose to a drain area. This method is recommended if uninterrupted operation is desired.
