temperature up or down button is released, the window will return to displaying the ambient  
temperature after a second.  
Note: When unit is in the following modes: 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. In Cooling or Heating mode,  
it will wait for a 2°F as an allowance to conserve energy. For example:  
In Cooling Mode with a set temperature of 70°F  
When compressor first stops after reaching 68°F, unit will auto-switch to Fan.  
Compressor will start cooling again when ambient temperature increases to 72°F or above.  
In Heating Mode with a set temperature of 72°F  
When compressor first stops after reaching 74°F, unit will auto-switch to Fan. Compressor will  
start heating again when ambient temperature drops to 70°F or below.

.DRAINAGE  
During the process of cooling or heating, some water will be extracted from the air. Most of this  
water is used to cool the cooling coils and make the unit run more efficiently. This is a feature not  
found in most other portable air conditioners. If the unit is operated in a VERY HUMID  
environment, water will start to collect in the built-in water reservoir. When the water tank  
becomes full, the compressor and fan will stop. The water full indicator (W.F.) will lit to inform you  
to empty the water tank. To resume cooling or heating, please empty water by one of the  
following methods:  
Draining into a Container  
(Use the water tray supplied in the package)  
1. Turn off the unit.  
2. Position the water tray under the drain spout.  
3. Remove the drain knob & rubber plug from the drain  
spout. Water will flow out automatically.  
4. When the container is almost full, replace the  
rubber plug into the drain spout to stop the water.  
Empty the container.  
5. Repeat steps 2, 3 & 4 until water is emptied.  
6. Replace the rubber plug into the drain spout firmly.  
The Full Water indicator should be off now.  
7. Replace the drain knob.
