the pre-filter periodically. Follow the steps below to install the  
carbon filter:  
CAUTION: Never operate  
the air conditioner without  
the pre-filter attached.

Window Kit Installation Instructions  
You must vent your portable air conditioner when running in it  
cooling mode. Your unit includes a window exhaust kit that can be  
used to vent the unit out a window.  
Preparations for installing  
the window kit  
Before you begin, make sure you have all the parts necessary for  
installation.  
Window Kit Parts List:  
NOTE: Exhaust Covers  
may be attached to the  
Grated Adapters. You  
may need to twist and pull  
apart to separate them.  
4 Screws  
1 Grated Adapter  
1 Exhaust Cover  
1 Exhaust Hose  
1 Window Kit Plate with Hole  
1 Window Kit Plate  
2 Duct Connectors  
If you have multiple windows, choose one that is near an electrical  
outlet that will be able to provide sufficient power to your unit. See  
the power requirements listed on the product label printed on the  
side, or on the back of your portable air conditioner.  
NOTE: You may need to  
contact your electrician if  
your room’s circuit is not  
able to power your unit.  
Your window kit can be installed on a horizontal or vertical sliding  
window as shown in the following pictures:  
Follow the instructions on the next pages to install the window kit.

Installing the window plates  
3. Open your window and place the window kit with  
grooved side facing outward on the window sill. Then, slide  
the window kit plate to fit the width of the window. You can  
use screws to secure the window kit plate from sliding.  
  
4. Lower the window to secure the window kit in place. You  
may need to use duct tape to better secure the window kit.  
CAUTION: Secure your  
window by using window  
locks. Please contact your  
EdgeStar retailer to  
purchase window locks.

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 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 or replace it  
with any other hose.  
Do not lengthen the  
exhaust hose by adding  
additional hoses or  
attachments.  
Warning: Longer hoses are not recommended.  
Draining the Unit  
When the portable air conditioner is in cooling mode, or dehumidify  
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 WATER indicator will light up on the Control  
Panel.  
Direct drainage  
1. Remove the rubber drain plug from the drain port.  
2. Connect a drain hose to the drain port.  
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.”

Operating the Remote Control  
Use the  
Power button to turn the portable air conditioner on and off.  
Power  
By default when you first use the power button, the unit will begin to  
operate in cooling mode and the front panel will be illuminated in blue.  
The unit will remember the last used mode/settings if you shut down and  
restart.  
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. The front panel  
lights will be blue.  
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

the water from the unit. Additionally, the ambient temperature in the room will probably rise by a few  
degrees if you do not use the exhaust hose. You will not be able to change the thermostat temperature  
while in Dehumidifying Mode.

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.  
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.  
Close all windows and doors.  
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.
