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 approximately 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. Do not replace it with
any other hose.
Do not lengthen the
exhaust hose by adding
additional hoses or
attachments.
Warning
: Longer hoses are not recommended.
The exhaust hose must be installed or removed in accordance with
the usage modes:
A:
You must install the exhaust hose if the unit is in Cooling Mode.
B:
You must remove the exhaust hose if the unit is in Fan Mode or
Dehumidify mode.
NOTE:
The exhaust hose may be compressed or extended according to your installation requirements;
however, it is recommended to keep the exhaust hose length at a minimum.
