GENERAL OPERATING AND SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance is a portable air-conditioner, designed for domestic use.
Only use this air-conditioner as described in this manual.
Ensure that the required voltage and frequency (220-240V/50Hz) match the available power source.
Ensure that the electricity system is able to deliver the operating current needed by the air-conditioner in addition to that
normally absorbed by other appliances (electrical appliances, lighting, etc.). Please refer to the maximum absorption data
given on the air-conditioner data plate.
Connection to the electricity grid must take place in accordance with current installation standards.
Ensure that the automatic switches and system protection valves are able to withstand start-up current of 10A (normally
for less than 1 second).
The system socket must always be fitted with an efficient earth.
Make sure the plug is inserted fully. Do not use multiple adapters. Do not touch the plug with wet hands. Make sure the
plug is clean.
Do not use the plug as a means by which to start/stop the air-conditioner: use the power button on the remote control or
on the side control panel under the intake grille.
Do not install the air-conditioner in rooms that may be subject to water spray (e.g. laundries).
This appliance is not suitable for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental abilities, or
persons without the necessary experience and knowledge, unless they have been adequately supervised and instructed
concerning the use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
Before moving or cleaning, ensure that the device is unplugged from the socket.
Do not move the air-conditioner while it is operating; first turn the appliance off, check and remove any condensation that
may have formed.
To turn the appliance off, set the remote control to OFF and remove the plug from the socket. Only pull on the plug. Do
not pull the cord.
Do not use the appliance if the cord or plug are damaged
. If the power supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced
by the manufacturer, dealer or a similarly qualified person so as to avoid any safety risks.
PRECAUTION!
Do not insert any objects into the air-conditioner: this is very dangerous as the fan turns very quickly.
Ensure that air circulates freely around the unit. Do not cover the air intake and delivery grilles with drapes or in
any way.
WARNING!
The air-conditioner must be positioned
at least 50 cm
from the wall and any other obstacles, on a firm, flat surface to
avoid water leaks.
The air-conditioner is fitted with a system to protect the compressor from overload. This means that the
compressor only starts once 3.5 minutes have passed from its previous stop.
Please wait at least 3.5 minutes before starting the unit. This helps prevent the compressor from being damaged.
WARNING!
In the event of an anomaly, switch the appliance off and unplug from the socket. Do not dismantle or attempt to
repair or modify the product. In the event of a malfunction, contact the after-sales service centre directly.
WARNING!
Do not expose the air-conditioner to direct sunlight, as the colour of the materials may change and if the
appliance overheats, this may activate the protection mechanism, causing it to switch off.
Do not use insecticides, oils, detergents or spray paints near the appliance; do not use aggressive chemical
detergents to clean the casing: this may damage the finish and colour.
Close all open windows to maximise air-conditioning efficiency.
The manufacturer will not be held liable if safety and accident prevention rules are not observed.
