Operation Tips!

• Do not overcool the room.
This is not good for the health and wastes
electricity.
• Keep blinds or curtains closed.
Do not let direct sunshine enter the room
when the air conditioner is in operation.
• Keep the room temperature uniform.
Adjust the vertical and horizontal airflow di-
rection to ensure a uniform temperature in
the room.
• Make sure that the doors and windows are
shut tight.
Avoid opening doors and windows as much
as possible to keep the cool air in the room.
• Clean the air filter regularly.
Blockages in the air filter reduce the airflow
and lower cooling and dehumidifying ef-
fects. Clean at least once every two weeks.
• Ventilate the room occasionally.
Since windows are kept closed, it is a good
idea to open them and ventilate the room
now and then.
