INSTALLATION  
WARNING! Before using the air conditioner it should be left in an upright position for at least 2 hours.  
This unit can easily be moved from one room to another. In doing so keep this in mind:  
Ensure that the unit is positioned upright, on a level surface and 50 cm away from obstacles.  
– To place the loose filters in the filter holder.  
• Take the filter holder out of the air conditioner  
• Open the filter holder and place the active carbon filter (black) and 3M Filtrete™ filter  
(white), where included, in the filter holder.  
• Place the filter fixing component back in the holder.  
• Place the filter holder back in the air conditioner.  
Do not operate the unit inside the bathroom, shower, or in any other very humid environment.  
– Connect the hose to the unit by turning it clockwise (at least 5 turns).  
– Similarly, connect the hose to the slide bar connector as far as possible.  
– Place the telescopic slide bar in the open window or door and  
adjust the length to fill as much open space as possible.  
– Put the slide bar connector in the opening in the telescopic slide  
bar.  
– Close the window or door as much as possible to prevent outside  
air entering the room.  
ꢀꢁ CM  
– Ensure that the slide bar connector has a free flow outside.

Important  
The flexible exhaust hose can be extended from 500 to 1500 mm for mounting. This length  
has been designed especially according to the specifications of the air conditioner. Do not  
use an extension or exchange for a different hose as that may lead to malfunctioning. The  
exhaust air must flow freely, any blockage can lead to overheating of the air conditioner.  
Take care to prevent any sharp bow or bend in the exhaust.

Dehumification  
If the unit will be used mainly as a dehumidifier just let the warm air return in the room.  
Continuous drainage is then necessary and more efficient.  
For continuous drainage:  
• Switch off the unit and remove the plug from the mains.  
• Remove the water stopper and rubber plug.  
• Connect a drain tube (ø 20 mm inner dimension) onto the water outlet and extend with  
extra water tube if needed.  
• Place the other end in a normal drain. Make sure that the tube is free from twists and  
bends. The tube must decline over its entire length.  
AIR FILTER  
This air conditioner can be equipped with a 3-layer filter to clean the circulated room air.  
a. Screen filter; to remove bigger dust particles.  
b. All models: active carbon filter; to remove odours.  
c. 3M Filtrete™ filter; to remove unhealthy particles from the air such as pollen, bacteria,  
animal dander and dust. Selected models have the 3M Filtrete™ filter as standard.  
However, if you require to add this to your model, or wish to purchase a replacement, call  
Amcor for details.  
NOTE! The active carbon filter and the 3M Filtrete™ filter are delivered in a plastic packaging. Don’t  
forget to install these filters. These filters take away unhealthy particles out of the room environment.  
The filter frame on the rear of the unit can be opened. The active carbon filter and 3M  
Filtrete™ filter can be installed or removed. The screen filter is part of the filter frame (see  
illustration).  
a. The screen filter has to be cleaned regularly with a vacuum cleaner to avoid blocking of  
the air flow.  
b. The positive/negative electrostatically charged 3M Filtrete™ filter is recommended to be  
changed every 3 months. Unusual dirt, construction work, pets, the presence of smoke  
and running the air conditioning unit continuously can shorten the life time of the 3M  
Filtrete™ filter.  
c. The active carbon filter can be cleaned with a vacuum cleaner when dusty but has to be  
changed at the same time as the 3M Filtrete™ filter.

at the beginning of the new season. The old filters can be disposed in the ‘Non-biological garbage  
container.  
• Replacement filter packages are available directly from Amcor.  
• To run the unit without active carbon filter and/or 3M Filtrete™ filter does not do any harm to the air  
conditioner. In this case odours and unhealthy dust are not removed from the circulated air.  
• The screen filter must always be used.  
REMOTE CONTROL  
The unit responds to all signals that are sent by the remote control. There will be  
a beep sound from the unit after receiving the signal.  
The operation of the unit by remote control, is almost identical to the operation  
by the circular control panel. The only exception is the clock function.  
Instead of the  
timer, there are 3 push buttons on the remote control as follows:  
- for setting the actual time.

• TIMER ON - for programming the time when the unit is ON.  
• TIMER OFF - for programming the time when the unit is OFF.  
EMPTYING THE INTERNAL WATER CONTAINER  
Under high humidity conditions it may be necessary to empty the internal water container.  
When the internal water container is full the backlight on the LCD-display flashes. The unit  
will switch off automatically.  
To empty the water container do the following:  
• Switch off the unit and remove the plug from the wall socket.  
Do not move the unit. Doing this can result in water leakage,  
damaging your floor or carpet.  
• Place the water container on the floor underneath the permanent  
drainage point.  
• Remove the water stopper and rubber plug from the drain and let the  
water run out. The water container has to be emptied several times  
before all water will be drained (ca. 1.5 litres).  
• Replace the rubber plug and water stopper, put the plug into the wall socket,  
and switch the unit on.  
The warning signal should be off.  
NOTE! When the air conditioner is in use, under normal circumstances the condensed water will  
evaporate and then be discharged through the hot air outlet hose
