hose adapter only:
1. Using the window kit:
Window kit
FIG. 8
·
·
Open the window and insert the window kit into the open gap.
Close the window until the window kit is held securely. You may need to expand the size
of the window kit using the included window spacers. This technique can also be used
for sash windows.
·
Insert one end of the exhaust hose into the exhaust air outlet located on the back of the
air conditioner. Attach the exhaust hose adapter to the other end of the exhaust hose
and connect the adapter to the window kit.
2. Using the adapter:
Wall or window
Exhaust

FIG.9
·
·
Cut a hole with a 6” diameter (152 mm) into a wall or window.
Insert one end of the exhaust hose into the exhaust air outlet located on the back of the
air conditioner. Insert the other end of the exhaust hose through the wall or window
opening and attach the exhaust hose adapter from the outside as shown.

Positioning the Exhaust Hose
·
Only use the provided exhaust
hose with this AC. Insert the
exhaust hose into the back of the
unit and secure it in place.
FIG.11
·
Avoid kinks and bends in the
exhaust hose. These can cause
expelled moist air to accumulate,
resulting in overheating and
unexpected shut-offs (fig. 11 and
12).
FIG.12
·
The exhaust hose may be
extended from 12 inches (300
mm) to 59 inches (1500 mm), but
for maximum cooling efficiency,
use the shortest hose length
possible.
FIG.13
WARNING!
The included exhaust hose is specifically
designed to fit the specifications of this
unit. Do not extend it with your own
hose, as this can cause the air
conditioner to malfunction.

Heating Function (Optional – Only Available on AC-14100H Model)
This portable air conditioner can work as a heater because it has a heat pump. Ambient warm air
is recycled and used to heat specific areas. In order to use the air conditioner as a heater,
the exhaust hose must still be fitted onto the unit in order to allow cold air to be removed.
When in heating mode, the unit can run on either high or low speed.
Ionizer Function (Optional)
Press the IONIZER button to turn on the portable air conditioner’s built-in ionizer. This helps
remove dust and other large particles from your air.
Self-Diagnosis Function
This machine is equipped with a self-diagnosis function. If there is a problem with the air
conditioner, the LCD screen will display an “E1” or “E2” error message. If this occurs, please
contact a service center.
FIG.18
All of the above functions can also be performed with
the supplied remote control.
This remote control requires 2 AAA batteries to
operate.
Energy Efficiency Boosting Function
This unit is equipped with an energy efficiency boosting function. By adding water to the tank
as shown below, energy efficiency can be increased, therefore saving you money on your energy
bill and conserving the environment.
FIG.19
PLEASE NOTE:
To use the energy efficiency boosting function, please follow the steps above at
least one hour after operation.

Additional Notes:
1.
To prolong the life of the compressor, after turning off the unit, please wait at least 3
minutes before turning the unit back on.

The cooling function will turn off if the ambient temperature is lower than the set
temperature. However, the fan speed will still continue to operate at the set speed. If the
ambient temperature rises above the selected temperature, cooling will resume.
3.
4.
The heating function will turn off if the ambient temperature is higher than the set
temperature. However, the fan speed will continue to operate at the set speed. If the
ambient temperature drops below the selected temperature, heating will resume.
This machine is equipped with an anti-frost function. When using the heating function in low
temperatures, the heater may stop momentarily in order to melt any frost that has
accumulated. If this occurs, simply wait for the heating function to resume.

DRAINING THE UNIT
During the cooling process, some water will be extracted from the air and stored within the unit’s
water reservoir.
If the water reservoir is full, both the compressor and motor will stop and the unit will beep (press
any button to stop the beeping sound). The full water tank indicator light will also flash.
To resume cooling, empty the water reservoir by following these steps:
1. Turn off the air conditioner and unplug it
from the wall socket. To prevent water
leakage, avoid moving the unit when full.
2. Place a container (such as a small pan)
underneath the drainage port.
3. Remove the water plug from the drainage
port and allow the water to drain out.
4. When the container is almost full, replace
the water plug back into the drainage port
and empty the water container.
5. Repeat until the water reservoir is
completely empty.
6. Replace the water plug back into the
drainage port and make sure it is firmly in
FIG.20
place.
7. Turn the unit back on. The full water tank
indicator should turn off.
To operate the unit continuously without manually emptying the tank, follow these steps:
·
·
Remove the water plug from
the drainage port and retain it
for future use.
Connect the included drainage
hose to the drainage port as
shown. Connect the other end
of the hose into a drain.
