Optimizing Performance  
For Maximum Performance and Efficiency:  
1. Do not cover the air outlet (exhaust) while in use.  
2. Do not place the unit in front of curtains or drapes- to ensure they do not obstruct the air  
intake.  
3. Minimize the length of the exhaust hose.  
4. Make sure the exhaust hose is as straight as possible.  
5. Keep curtains, blinds or drapes closed during the sunniest part of the day.  
6. Use the timer to operate the unit before it is needed. For example, set the timer to turn on  
the unit in cooling mode for 3 or more hours to cool the room before you arrive. You may  
want to operate the unit all day if you live in a warmer climate.  
7. Minimize the heat sources (direct sunlight, computers, servers, people, etc.) in the room.  
8. Close all windows and doors.  
9. Use the unit in a contained room. For example, a room with four walls and a roof, instead  
of a partitioned studio, or warehouse.  
10. Make sure the unit is on a level surface.  
11. Minimize the amount of humidity in the room. For example, adding a dehumidifier.  
12. To prolong the compressor's life, please wait at least 3 minutes before turning the unit  
back on after shutting it off.

Troubleshooting  
Why is my air conditioner not functioning at all?  
o
The air conditioner may not be receiving electrical power. Press the test/reset buttons on the LCDI power  
cord.  
o
Move the air conditioner to another outlet, and test the outlet with a voltage tester or another appliance  
that is known to be non-defective. If the outlet is bad, contact an electrician and move the air conditioner to  
another outlet.  
o
If the remote will not work, first, check the batteries. The control panel may be unplugged from the circuit board.  
Contact customer service to repair.  
Why is my air conditioner not cooling at all?  
o
The unit should be in a room where the ambient temperature is below 95˚F . If the ambient temperature is  
above 95˚F, the unit will likely not blow cold air but is not defective. Follow the below steps to increase the  
efficiency of your unit’s compressor:  
o
o
o
o
o
Minimize heat in the room.  
Minimize the size of the area to be cooled (close doors and windows).  
Close curtains or pull down blinds; minimize direct sunlight into the room.  
Remove additional heat sources such as computer equipment (servers), etc.  
Run the unit before it is needed (e.g., run the unit in the morning before the area gets hot, and  
continue to run the unit all day long in order to maintain a low temperature).  
o
Use more than one unit or a larger unit to cool the area.  
o
Remove the exhaust hose and run the unit for 5 minutes. Stick your hand in front of the exhaust and then  
in front of the internal air louvers. Is the exhaust noticeably hotter than the interior air? If so, the unit is not  
defective; follow the above steps to maximize efficiency of your unit’s compressor.  
o
o
If your unit has a filter, the filter may be dusty or otherwise blocked. Clean the filter or contact customer  
service to replace if necessary.  
Check to make sure the air intake or exhaust ports are not partially obstructed. If they are, remove the  
obstruction.  
My unit turns on, but one of the fans is not turning or makes a loud noise? (Exhaust and evaporator fan)  
o
If the fan spins freely while the unit is off, but does not spin when the unit is on, then the probable  
cause is a loose wire from the fan motor to the circuit board, or a faulty fan motor. Contact customer  
service to replace faulty wiring or fan motor.  
o
If the fan does not spin freely, then the probable cause is a broken fan, or a foreign object has  
jammed the fan. Contact customer service if fan is broken, or unplug unit and attempt to remove  
foreign object.

Troubleshooting  
Why are the control panel lights blinking randomly?  
o
Your air conditioner may have a minor electrical fault. Move the unit to another outlet or unplug the unit and  
plug it in again.  
o
Your air conditioner may be plugged into an outlet that cannot supply the correct voltage to the unit. Move the  
air conditioner to another outlet, and test the outlet with a voltage tester or another appliance that is known to  
be non-defective. If the outlet is bad, contact an electrician and move the air conditioner to another outlet.  
o
If that is not the problem, the unit may have a faulty control panel. Contact customer service.  
My unit runs for a little while (generally about 90 seconds) and then suddenly trips its power cord (and/or the  
circuit breaker).  
o
Your air conditioner may need to be reset. Move the unit to another outlet or unplug the unit for 1 minute and  
plug it in again.  
o
Your air conditioner may be plugged into an outlet that cannot supply the correct voltage to the unit. Move the  
air conditioner to another outlet, and test the outlet with a voltage tester or another appliance that is known to  
be non-defective. If the outlet is bad, contact an electrician and move the air conditioner to another outlet.  
My air conditioner is too loud?  
o
Your air conditioner may be positioned on a hard or uneven floor causing your unit to vibrate. Move the unit  
onto a level, carpeted surface.  
o
If the unit is level and a “knocking” noise is audible, the unit may have a faulty compressor. Contact customer  
service.  
Why is my air conditioner leaking?  
o
Check for damage to the bottom of the unit. If damage is present, contact customer service.  
o
Make sure the unit on a level surface.  
o
Make sure you are running the unit with the drain plug installed. Make sure the drain cap as well as the rubber  
drain plug is attached to the unit.  
Both fans are blowing, but only room temperature air is coming out of both fans?  
o
Make sure the unit is on “cooling” mode.  
Note that the compressor may take up to 3 minutes to turn on.  
o
o
Check to see if there is any oily residue on the bottom of the unit or inside the unit on the panels, or  
components. If this is the case, then the compressor has a cracked coil that is leaking oil and the unit must be  
replaced. Contact customer service to replace.
