Maintenance
Thank You!
Always unplug the unit from the mains before beginning the cleaning.
Thank you for choosing the portable air conditioner from SPTUSA, a leading
brand in indoor air treatment. We would like you to enjoy the many benefits this
unit offers, so please take the time to read this manual carefully and take full
advantage of the many advanced features that your SPTUSA Air Conditioner

manufacturing world-class air conditioners, dehumidifiers and air purifiers
with innovative technology. In designing these advanced products, we have
listened carefully to our customers and have passed their views on to our

Cleaning the Housing
Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe the body clean.
Never use strong chemicals, oil-based products, detergents, chemically treated
cloths or other cleaning solutions. These could possibly damage the cabinet.
Important! Clean the exhaust air intake area (located on the side, near bottom)
with a vacuum to remove dust accumulation. Excessive dust may cause a
decrease in performance and/or damage to the compressor. Damage caused by
improper maintenance will void the warranty.
We wish you many years of enjoyable use.
Cleaning the Filter
After reading this manual, please keep it in a safe place for future reference.
Use a vacuum cleaner or tap the filter lightly to remove loose dust and dirt from the
filters and then rinse them thoroughly under running water (no hotter than 104°F) Do
not wet the activated carbon filter, remove from frame before washing.
Dry thoroughly before replacing.

the airflow.
End of Season Storage
Unplug the unit.
•Keep blinds/curtains closed during the sunniest part of the day.
•Close the fireplace damper and floor or wall grills so that cool air does not
escape through the chimney or ductwork.
Drain the condensed water COMPLETELY (please refer to
page 12). Clean or change the filter.
•Keep the filters clean.
On a warm day, turn the unit to fan mode for a couple of hours so that the inside can dry out
completely. It is recommended that the unit be put back into its original carton for storage.
Do not stack heavy objects on top of the unit.
Set the unit to maximum cooling and high speed fan initially, then adjust the
unit to a comfortable setting.

Before Use
Important!
Setting the Temperature
Turn the THERMOSTAT to regulate the temperature you desire: range 64˚F to 90˚F.
•
Transport the unit in an upright position only, or leave it in an upright
position for at least 2 hours before first use.
Setting the Timer
Set the TIMER to the desired operating time (1 to 8 hours).
When the set time has elapsed, the machine will shut off automatically.
•
•
Always place the unit on an even surface (Figure 1).
Make sure the unit is connected to a correctly grounded power supply
(refer to the rating label located at the back of the unit).
•
An opening in a window or wall is required to accommodate the
exhaust hose (kit supplied) to expel the warm air.
Regulating the Airflow Direction
Turn the roller on the air vent to control the
airflow direction from the vertical louvers.
•
•
Do not cover or obstruct the appliance inlet or outlet grilles (Figure 2).
To avoid the risk of shock, the product should never be used in
bathrooms, shower rooms or in any other steamy or wet areas.

depending on the thermostat setting.
•
Do not sit or place objects on the unit.
•
•
Do not touch the unit with wet/damp hands or when standing barefoot.
Avoid all contact with chemical based materials.

Setting The Fan Speed
Press the SPEED button to choose the fan speed you require, high or low.
Mounting the unit
This unit is a portable air conditioner. It can be moved from room to room so that the cooling
can follow you anywhere. Fitting the exhaust hose is easy, through a window or wall.
Please refer to either of the following ways:
The indicator of high or low fan will light up at the same time.
If the unit is in AUTO mode, it will select the fan speed automatically according to the
ambient temperature (the related indicators, cool, fan or heat will light up), at this time the
fan speed switch is invalid.
1. Using the foam strips
Setting the Timer
Press the TIMER button to set the operating hours you desire (1 to 12 hours, the timer
indicator will light up). When the set time has elapsed, the machine will turn off
automatically. The display window will show the hour(s) you set as you press the TIMER
button. If the timer button is not pressed, the unit will work continuously.
By pressing the timer button but without turning on the unit, you
can PRE-SET the time for the machine to work. For example, if you
press the timer to ‘2’, the unit will come on automatically after 2 hours.
All the above functions can also be performed with the supplied remote
control. This remote control requires 2 AAA batteries to operate.
• Connect the supplied foam strips with the exhaust pipe, let the hot air flow to the outside.
• Should the foam strip(s) be too large, cut off the extra part to fit the window.
Regulating the airflow direction
Turn the roller on the air vent to control the
airflow direction from the vertical louvers.
2. Using the Through the Wall
Notice!
• To prolong the unit’s life, it will start 3 minutes after the unit was switched on. After switching
off, please wait at least 3 minutes before switching it on again.
• The cooling system will switch off if the room temperature is lower than set. The fan,
however, keeps working at the set level. If the ambient temperature rises above the chosen
temperature +5˚F, the cooling will resume.
• In heating mode, the compressor will switch off if the room temperature is HIGHER than the
set one (The fan
keeps working at the set level)
. As the room
temperature drops below the selected level –5˚F, the heating will resume.
• This machine is equipped with an ANTI-FROST function. While using the heating function
during low temperatures, sometimes the heating will stop for a while in order to melt the
internal frost. When this occurs just wait for heating to resume.
• Make a hole (5" in diameter) in the wall to fit the supplied round connector.
• Fit the hose directly to the round connector.
• When the hole is not in use, use the cap for the round connector to cover the hole.
• As you switch on the heating, the fan will stop for 15-20 seconds first for warm up purposes.

The indicators of the functions in progress come on at the same time,e.g. Cool and Lo = Cooling mode with Low fan speed.
Auto Mode
When this mode is selected,the unit is preset to the following temperature settings and unit will only start to:
• Cool when room temperature is higher than 75°F
WARNING!
The length of the exhaust pipe is specially
designed according to the specification of this
product.
• Heat when room temperature is lower than 68°F (WA-1230H & WA-1010H only)
If room temperature is between 68°F and 75°F,unit will stay in Fan mode. Again,when inAuto Mode,the temperature settings cannot be
changed.
Do not replace or extend it with your own hose
as this could cause the unit to malfunction.
Setting theTemperature in Cooling or Heating Mode
The display window’s default is to display the ambient room temperature. The green indicator light under RT is on.
(RT = RoomTemperature)
To set your desired temperature,press theTemperature Up or Down buttons (ranging from 64°F to 90°F). Each press will increase or
decrease your set temperature by 1°F. When pressing the temperature up or down buttons, the window will change to display your set
temperature.At this time,the green indicator will light under ST (Set Temperature). Once the temperature up or down buttons is released,
the window will return to displaying the ambient temperature after a second.

Note: When unit is in the following modes: Auto,Cool,or Heat - the compressor will cool/heat the room to reach the set temperature. Once the
ambient temperature has reached the set temperature,the compressor will stop and unit will run in Fan mode. To conserve energy, the
compressor will not start immediately after a couple degrees increase or decrease,but will wait for a 5°F allowance. For example:
4. Insert the active carbon filter into
the filter frame.
In Cooling Mode with a set temperature of 70°F
When compressor first stops after reaching 70°F,unit will auto-switch to Fan.
Compressor will start cooling again when ambient temperature increases to 75°F or above.
5. Fix the filter by reassembling
the fixer onto the filter frame.
6. Re-fit the filter frame inside
the unit.
In Heating Mode with a set temperature of 72°F
When compressor first stops after reaching 72°F,
temperature drops to 67°F or below.
Unit will auto-swtich to Fan.
Compressor will start heating again when ambient
In Auto Mode (with preset temperature of 68°F for heat and 75°F for cool)
Compressor will start cooling again when ambient temperature reaches above 80°F or will start heating when ambient temperature drops below
63°F.
