Notes about the Exhaust hose

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.

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.”
