Installation

Unpacking Inspection

• Open the box and check the unit in an area with good ventilation (open the door and window) and without an ignition source.
  Note: Operators are required to wear anti-static devices.
• It is necessary to check by professional whether there is refrigerant leakage before opening the box; stop installing the air conditioner if leakage is found.
• The fire prevention equipment and anti-static precautions shall be prepared well before checking. Then check the refrigerant pipeline to see if there are any collision traces and whether the outlook is good.

Safety Principles for Installing Air Conditioner

• Fire prevention device shall be prepared before installation.
• Keep installing site ventilated (open the door and window)
• An ignition source, smoking and calling are not allowed to exist in the area where R290 refrigerant located.
• Anti-static precautions in necessary for installing an air conditioner, e.g. wear pure cotton clothes and gloves.
• Keep leak detector in working state during the installation.
• If R290 refrigerant leakage occurs during the installation, you shall immediately detect the concentration in the indoor environment until it reaches a safe level. If refrigerant leakage affects the performance of the unit, please immediately stop the operation, and the unit must be vacuumed firstly and be returned to the maintenance station for processing.
• Keep electric appliance, power switch, plug, socket, high-temperature heat source and high static away from the area underneath sidelines of the unit.
• The unit shall be installed in an accessible location to installation and maintenance, without obstacles that may block air inlets or outlets of units, and shall keep away from the heat source, inflammable or explosive conditions. 

Requirements For Installation Position

• Avoid places of inflammable or explosive gas leakage or where there are strongly aggressive gases.
• Avoid places subject to strong artificial electric/magnetic fields.
• Avoid places subject to noise and resonance.
• Avoid severe natural conditions (e.g. heavy lampblack, strong sandy wind, direct sunshine or high-temperature heat sources).
• Avoid places within the reach of children.
• Select where it is easy to perform service and repair and where the ventilation good.

Installation Environment Inspection

• Check nameplate of the unit to make sure whether the refrigerant is R290.
• Check the floor space of the room. Space shall not be less than usable space(12msq) in the specification. The unit shall be installed at a well-ventilated place.
• Check the surrounding environment of installation site: R290 shall not be installed in the enclosed reserved space of a building.

Guide of Customer

• The customer should have a qualified power supply coincident with that printed on the tag of the air conditioner.
• Must use special circuit and efficient grounding outlet matching with the plug of the air conditioner.
• The appliance should be installed in accordance with national wiring regulation.
• The plug should be easily accessible after installation.

Select the Best Location

1. Install the mobile air conditioner in a flat and spacious location where the air outlets will not be obstructed.
2. A minimum clearance of 50cm from walls or other obstacles should be kept.
3. The gradient must not be more than 10 degrees from horizontal. Uneven ground may cause additional noise or vibration, or lead to damage to the device.

Note: 

1. The air conditioner shall not be used in the laundry.
2. The plug shall be accessible after the unit is positioned.
   

Duct Mount Instruction

• In cooling, heating and drying mode, the exhaust duct needs to be installed while in fan mode, the exhaust duct is not needed.
• The exhaust duct can be moderately compressed and tensed to suit your needs, but cannot be arbitrarily stretched and bent.
• The exhaust duct can be connected with Windows or installed into the wall.
  Based on accessories of the unit you buy and the actual needs, you can make the installation.

Install the adapter A and adapter B (flat mouth or round mouth) onto the exhaust duct as shown in Fig. A or Fig.B.

2. Connect the exhaust duct to the Air outlet connector on the back of the unit. Slide-in the adapter A downwards until it is locked in place. (Fig.C)

Install the Window Slider Kit

Attach the window slider kit to the window sash. Adjust the length of the Window Slider Kit: Loosen the screw A to adjust the length of the Window Slider Kit, then tight the screw when the length is suitable.
Note: the length of the Window Slider Kit is 67.5cm to 120cm.

Install the Exhaust Duct into the Window

Remove the unit with the packed exhaust duct next to the window, and then connect the adapter B (flat mouth) of the exhaust duct with the window. (Fig.E)

Install the Exhaust Duct Into the Wall

1. Prepare a hole in the wall. Install the wall exhaust adapter onto the wall, be sure to fix thoroughly.
2. Attach the exhaust duct to wall exhaust adapter. (Fig.G)

Note: The duct can be compressed to 270mm minimum and extended to 1500mm maximum. It is better to keep the duct length to a minimum. Stretching or bending the duct excessively will affect the cooling efficiency. (As the following fig. Shows)

 

Water Drainage

• During dehumidifying mode, remove the upper drain plug from the back of the unit. Attach the drain hose to the hole. Place the other end of the hose in the drainage way or other drain areas.

 

• If the unit you bought has the pump drain outlet, as shown below, please drain in this way:
  Remove the pump drain plug from the back of the unit, attach the drain hose to the hole. Place the other end of the hose in the drainage way or other drain areas.

 

 

Note: Make sure the hose is secure and there are no leaks. Direct the hose toward the drain, making sure that there are no kinks that will stop the water flowing. Place the end of the hose into the drain and make sure the end of the hose is down to let the water flow smoothly. Do not raise it.

• When the water level of the bottom tray reaches a predetermined level, the digital display area shows "P1" and the WATER FULL indicator light illuminates. Carefully move the unit to a drain location, remove the bottom drain plug and let the water drain away. Reinstall the bottom drain plug and restart the machine until the P1 symbol disappears. If the error repeats, contact Kogan support.

NOTE: Be sure to reinstall the bottom drain plug before using the unit.
