Introduction
Thank you for choosing an omega altise portable air conditioner. This manual contains information,
regulations and warnings which are of fundamental importance if the appliance is to be installed correctly
and the highest performance, in the safest possible conditions, is to be obtained. We suggest that you read
the manual carefully before installing or starting up the unit.
This portable air-conditioning unit is of the mono tube type, is conveniently transportable (on wheels) with an
air operating system for domestic use. This unit has the following settings for ease of use:
•
Ventilate;
•
Cool;
•
Dehumidify; and
•
Heating (APC15RC only).
The ventilation mode “moves” the air allowing for the recycling of air much like a general fan.
The cooling mode uses a refrigerated circuit (compressor) to cool the room by transferring the heat from the
inside to the outside through the air exhaust hose and cooling the air that it returns to the room.
The dehumidify mode can be used to remove excess moisture in the air. This mode can be used by itself,
but also works to dehumidify the room while in cooling mode.
The heating mode makes the unit a “true reverse cycle” unit using a compressor to warm the room by
transferring the cool air from inside to outside through the air exhaust hose and warming the air that it returns
to the room.

Energy Saving Tips
1. Do not cover or restrict the airflow from the Outlet or Inlet grilles.
2. The minimum distance from furniture and walls should be 50cm.
3. Keep blinds and /or draperies, on any windows, closed during the sunniest part of the day.
4. Keep the filters clean. Under normal conditions, the
filters should be cleaned approximately every 2
weeks
(please see the maintenance section for further instructions). Since the filters remove airborne
particles, more frequent cleaning maybe necessary, depending on the indoor air quality and if you have
pets inside the home.
5. Set the fan speed switch to high cool and the thermostat to the coolest position for the initial start-up,
then set the Fan switch to Low cool and lower the thermostat to a comfortable setting.
6. Ensure all windows and doors to the room you are operating the unit in are closed.
