SPECIAL NOTE

This machine is designed to be used with or without water. Maximum performance is obtained using water. When used without water, Pinguino will maintain a full 88% of its cooling capacity.

HOW TO PREPARE WATER CONTAINER

Use only clean, salt-free tap water. The water is essential for the air cooling operation and si discharged in the form of steam through the exhaust outlet. A container full of water lasts for a period that depends on a number of conditions such as temperature, humidity, insulation, exposure of the room, number of people present, etc. On average it will last approximately 7 to 10 hours.

When the container is empty, the appliance automatically changes function from water to air. At the same time, the quantity of air discharged from the rear hose will increase.

After filling, replace the extendable tube, screw the cap on tightly and return the container to its place, making sure the word FRONT is facing out.

During “water condensation” cooling function and in particularly quiet surroundings (eg. bedroom), a slight gurgling noise may be heard. This may be regarded as perfectly normal.

Warning: Do not use water containing salt, eg. seawater or water treated using softening systems that utilize kitchen salt.
