– 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.

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.
