Installation of the Portable Air Conditioner

Warning:The Portable Air Conditioner should be put upright.

If the Portable Air Conditioner be laid down for a while, it needs to putupright at least four(4) hours before operating.

  1. Location

Put the Portable Air Conditioner(PAC) at an open place where the air outlets cannot be covered up, place the unit no less than 50cm away from a wall or other obstacle.

  1. Power Supply

Before connecting the PAC to the power supply, please check:

1)The power supply is rated voltage ±6%.

2)The power supply line is properly earthed and sized for a pickup current of 20A, so as to avoid voltage drops when starting the PAC

3)The unit connected to a 16Amp socket by a 16Amp plug fitted.

4)Cross-section area of the wires must be at least 2.5㎟.

5)If the power supply cord of the unit is broken, please replace it with a special power supply cord and a skilled service man is needed to do this.

6)Please go to the maintenance department for changing the power cord and plug it they are damaged.

7)The PAC must be positioned so that the plug is touchable.

8)The minimum clearance from the PAC to combustible surface is 50㎝.

For to prevent flicker impressions during the start of the compressor (technical process) following installation conditions do apply.

1)The power connection for the PAC has to be done at the main power distribution. This distribution has to be of low impedance. Normally the required impedance is reached at a 32A fusing point.

2)No other equipment has to be connected to this power line.

3)For detailed installation acceptance please refer to your contract with the power supplier, if restrictions do apply for products like washing machines, air conditioners, or electrical ovens.

4)For power details of the PAC refer to the rating plate of the product.

  1. Air Exhaust duct

1)Fix the square end of the exhaust duct to the exhaust terminal of the unit.

2)Put the other end (discharge) to the nearest window with the window kit.

Note: those pictures (KY-35U/D) are just example

3)The length of the air exhaust must be between 50㎝ ~ 200㎝.

4)When mounting the air exhaust, try to keep it horizontal.

Note: this picture (KY-32U) is just example

5)If mounting in the wall, the height of the hole should be 40㎝ ~ 130㎝.

Note: this picture (KY-32U) is just example.

6)If the air exhaust requires bend, bend as shown as below.

FAQ for the Portable Air Conditioner

  1. [KY-32U/D]Self diagnosis function

Check code / Possible cause / Action
E1 / Power supply was unstable / Stop the unit by switch off the power supply. Start it 10 minutes later, if it display E1 again, call the service center.
Something wrong with the unit
E4 / The water tank was overflow / Drain the water
  1. [PAC] What is the white Styrofoam under the water tank lid? Is it one of the packing materials?

No. it isn’t. It is the floating material for lifting the water tank lid when the drain is full. If you remove this white Styrofoam from the lid, the drain overflow alarm will not work.

  1. [PAC] What is maximum length and height for installation of air exhaust pipe?

The length of the air exhaust must be between 50 cm ~ 200 cm and the height of the end of air exhaust must be between 40 cm ~ 130 cm from the ground level.

If the air exhaust requires bend, bend as shown as below
