Your portable air conditioner is designed to exhaust condensate  
water that is collected from the air. This water, in either gaseous or  
droplet form, will be expelled out the exhaust port of the unit.  
Please take this into account when deciding how to vent it.  
Notes about the Exhaust  
hose  
1. The exhaust hose supplied with the portable air conditioner can  
be extended up to approximately 48 inches; however for maximum  
efficiency, use the shortest length possible.  
2. Try to prevent any kinks or bends in the exhaust hose. Kinks or  
bends may trap exhaust air which can radiate heat into the room or  
potentially cause the portable air conditioner to overheat and shut  
itself off.  
3. The exhaust hose supplied with the portable air conditioner has  
been specifically designed for this air conditioner. Do not lengthen  
the hose by adding additional hoses or attachments. Do not replace  
it with any other hose.  
Do not lengthen the  
exhaust hose by adding  
additional hoses or  
attachments.  
Warning: Longer hoses are not recommended.  
The exhaust hose must be installed or removed in accordance  
with the usage modes:  
A: You must install the exhaust hose if the unit is in Cooling Mode.  
B: You must remove the exhaust hose if the unit is in Fan Mode or  
Dehumidify mode.  
Note: the exhaust hose may be compressed or extended according  
to your installation requirements; however, it is recommended to  
keep the exhaust hose length at a minimum.

Draining the Unit  
The unit will need to be drained if set to dehumidify mode. When the  
portable air conditioner is in cooling mode, it will remove moisture from  
the air. The condensed water from the air will be collected in an internal  
reservoir and will be evaporated and exhausted out of the exhaust hose.  
However, in very humid conditions, the internal reservoir may fill  
completely. This causes the air conditioner to turn off to avoid overflowing  
the internal reservoir. The unit will beep 8 times and the LCD will show a  
“P1” error code on the Control Panel if the reservoir is full of water. The  
fan motor will continue to run, but the air conditioner/ dehumidifier will  
stop running.  
Direct drainage  
For continuous use you can connect a drain hose to the upper drain port  
of the portable air conditioner.  
1. Remove the rubber drain plug from the upper drain port.  
2. Connect a drain hose to the upper drain port. (Some models may have  
a threaded valve for a garden hose. You may need to purchase an  
adapter.) The portable air conditioner will now drain through the drain  
hose. Please note that this unit has no drain pump; all water will drain  
with gravity only, i.e., only “downhill.”  
Manual Drain  
You may need to manually drain the unit if your unit stops running and  
displays a “P1” error.  
1. Roll the unit to a location suitable for draining.  
2. Remove the lower drain plug and allow the unit to drain completely.  
3. Insert the lower drain plug to the lower drain port and restart the unit.

Operating the Control Panel  
Use the Power button to turn the portable air conditioner on and off.  
Power  
Auto-Restart: If power to the unit is interrupted, the air conditioner will restart  
itself in its last used mode/settings once power is restored. The compressor will  
restart after 3 minutes.  
Cooling mode cools and dehumidifies the air. If the ambient temperature drops  
below the temperature you selected, the compressor turns off and the unit  
functions with the fan only. When the temperature rises above the temperature  
you selected, the compressor turns on again.  
Cooling Mode  
Whether your desired temperature can actually be reached depends on the  
ambient conditions. The room temperature remaining above the set temperature  
is normal.  
To operate the unit in cooling mode:  
1) Make sure the power cord is plugged into a power outlet.  
2) Press the Power button.  
3) Press the Mode button until the LED indicator next to “Cool” lights up.  
4) Select the fan speed by using the Fan button.  
5) Set the thermostat by using the Up and Down buttons. The thermostat is  
adjustable between 62°F - 88°F in two degree increments.  
NOTE: The exhaust hose  
must be used in Cooling  
mode in order to cool a room.  
During the Dehumidifying mode, the unit will condense water out of the air and  
accumulate the water in the reservoir. In this mode, you will not be able to select  
a different fan speed or adjust the temperature. The fan motor operates at Low  
speed.

ambient temperature in the room will probably rise by a few degrees. You will not be able to change the  
thermostat temperature while in Dehumidifying Mode. Keep windows and doors closed for the best  
dehumidification performance.  
When the portable air conditioner is set to auto mode, it will automatically select  
cooling or fan only operation depending on what temperature you have selected  
and what the room temperature is near the unit. You cannot change the fan  
speed.

Normal Sounds  
Your new portable air conditioner may make sounds that are not familiar  
to you. Most of the sounds that are made are normal. Hard surfaces like  
the floor, walls can make the sounds seem louder than they actually are.  
The following describes the kinds of sounds that might be new to you and  
what may be making them.  
The compressor may make a pulsating or high-pitched sound.  
Water running from the evaporator to the water bin may make a  
splashing sound.  
You may hear a gurgling sound due to the refrigerant flowing.  
You will hear fan noise from the exhaust and front vents.  
Energy Saving Guide  
Read and follow the guide below to get the best performance and  
efficiency from your portable air conditioner:  
Do not cover the air outlet (exhaust) while in use.  
Do not place the unit in front of curtains or drapes- to ensure they do  
not obstruct the air intake.  
Minimize the length of the exhaust hose.  
Make sure the exhaust hose is as straight as possible and avoid kinks  
or bends.  
Keep curtains, blinds or drapes closed during the sunniest part of the  
day and close all windows and doors.  
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.  
Minimize the heat sources (direct sunlight, computers, servers,  
people, etc.) in the room.  
Use the unit in a contained room. For example, a room with four walls  
and a ceiling, instead of a partitioned studio, or warehouse.  
Make sure the unit is on a level surface.  
Minimize the amount of humidity in the room. For example, run the  
unit as a dehumidifier.  
To prolong the compressor's life, please wait at least 3 minutes before  
turning the unit back on after shutting it off.  
Inspect and keep the pre-filters clean by cleaning regularly.  
Inspect and replace the activated carbon filters regularly.  
Perform routine maintenance.  
Maintenance  
Clean the air conditioner and filters regularly to maximize performance  
and efficiency, and prolong the unit’s life. Be sure to always unplug the air  
conditioner from the power outlet before cleaning. Follow the instructions

Cleaning the unit  
Use a soft dry cloth to wipe the body clean. If necessary, use lukewarm  
water to dampen a cloth to clean the unit.  
Use a soft bristle brush to clean between the vents.  
Carefully use a vacuum cleaner to clean the condenser coils  
Never use abrasive chemicals, volatile substances, gasoline, detergents,  
chemically treated cloths, or other cleaning solvents that may damage the  
cabinet exterior.

dust and dirt, then rinse thoroughly under lukewarm running water  
(below 104°F). You may use a mild soap and water solution if  
needed. Allow the pre-filter to air dry in a cool and shaded place.  
Dry thoroughly before reinstalling.  
NOTE: The activated carbon  
filter is not washable. You  
should replace it every 2-3  
months or as needed. Contact  
EdgeStar retailers for  
replacement filters.  
Warning: Never operate the unit without the filters.  
Preparation for Storage  
If you are not going to be using the unit for an extended period of  
time, follow the instructions below before storing your unit:
