SPECIAL NOTE
This machine is designed to be used with or without water. Maximum performance is obtained
using water. When used without water, Pinguino will maintain a full 88% of its cooling
capacity.
HOW TO PREPARE WATER CONTAINER
Use only clean, salt-free tap water. The water is essential for the air cooling operation and si
discharged in the form of steam through the exhaust outlet. A container full of water lasts for a period
that depends on a number of conditions such as temperature, humidity, insulation, exposure of the
room, number of people present, etc. On average it will last approximately 7 to 10 hours.
When the container is empty, the appliance automatically changes function from water to air.
At the
same time, the quantity of air discharged from the rear hose will increase.
FINAL CHECK
In order to obtain the maximum performance from your air-conditioner make sure that:
Open the water container compartment
door, tip the container forwards and lift
up to remove.
Remove the cap, pull out the
extendable tube and fill the container,
standing it on the floor.
After filling, replace the extendable
tube, screw the cap on tightly and
return the container to its place, making
sure the word FRONT is facing out.
During water condensation cooling function and in particularly quiet surroundings (eg. bedroom), a
slight gurgling noise may be heard. This may be regarded as perfectly normal.
Warning: Do not use water containing salt, eg. seawater or water treated using softening systems
that utilize kitchen salt.
