INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: Before using this unit, please keep it upright for at least 3-4 hours.

This unit can easily be moved from one room to another.

While moving the unit please note that it must always be kept upright and then placed on an even surface.

1. Attach the fishtail connector to the end of the hose, by extending the end and twisting until firmly attached (At least 3 full rotations).
2.  Attach the connector on the opposite end of the pipe to the exhaust outlet on the rear of the appliance by putting into position and twisting to lock in place.
3. Make sure the unit is upright and there are no obstructions to the air inlets and outlet grills.

INSTALLATION OF WINDOW KIT

The window kit (slide bar and fishtail) can be used with sliding windows and doors. For other types of window, the fishtail should be used on its own.

• Partially open the window and place the extended slide bar in position before closing the window onto it.
• Fix the fishtail adaptor into the opening on the slide bar
• Fix the exhaust connector on the opposite end of the exhaust hose to the exhaust outlet on the rear of the air conditioner.

NOTES:

• The window kit is only designed to be installed with sliding or sash windows or doors. The window kit is not designed to be used with any other style of windows.
• The fish tail adaptor can be used without the slide bar with most windows / doors.
• When using the air conditioner ensure that the opening around the fishtail adaptor is as small as possible to ensure the efficiency of the unit is not reduced.
• The best form of installation is through a wall duct. By properly venting you expel hot air from your room while efficiently cooling it.
• Your air conditioner should be used without the vent pipe in dry mode. When using dry mode
  ensure that an external water tank is used, monitored and regularly emptied before overflowing. Permanent plumbing can be also installed or an external uplift water pump can be set up to allow for uninterrupted use.

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

The length of the soft hose extends from approximately 30 cm to 180 cm. If hose is extended above this length, the unit may malfunction which can invalidate the warranty.

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

PLEASE SHUT OFF THE UNIT AND UNPLUG FROM THE MAINS BEFORE CLEANING OR PERFORMING ANY MAINTENANCE

CLEAN THE SURFACE
Clean the surface of the machine with a wet soft cloth. Do not use chemicals, such as benzene, alcohol, gasoline, etc,otherwise, as this may cause damage to the surface and or the internal workings of the machine

AIR FILTER CLEANING
If the filter screen is clogged with dust, the effectiveness of the air conditioner is reduced. The filter screen should be cleaned once every two weeks or as often as necessarily in your environment.

CLEAN THE UPPER FILTER SCREEN FRAME

Grip the edge of the evaporator filter screen frame with both hands. Pull out to remove the filter screen from its frame. If present, unscrew the screws fixing the filter before removing it (as shown in the above figure). Put the evaporator filter screen into warm water with neutral detergent (about 40℃ /104℉) and dry it in the shade after rinsing clean.

CLEAN THE LOWER FILTER SCREEN FRAME

Hold the handle of the air inlet filter screen frame, and pull it outward gently to remove it. Put the filter screen into warm water with neutral detergent (about 40℃ / 104 ℉) and dry it in the shade after rinsing clean.

EMPTYING THE INTERNAL WATER TANK

MANUAL DRAINAGE:

When the internal water tank is full the unit will stop working, and the unit will display E7.
Turn off the unit and unplug. Try not to move the model abruptly as this may cause the water in the internal tank to spill out. Place a tray under the lower water plug or place the unit in a drainage area.

Unscrew the drain plug cap and remove the rubber stopper – water will drain from the internal tank. Put the rubber stopper back and screw the drain plug cap back into place.

CONTINUOUS DRAINAGE:
Unscrew the drain plug cap and remove the rubber stopper.
Connect a water pipe to the upper water outlet. You can plumb this pipe into your current plumbing system, lead it outside and use gravity fall or use a water pump.

NOTE: This model has a self-evaporative function, which reduces the need to  empty the water tank in cooling mode. If the unit is vented correctly most of the water is reused to cool the condenser coils and any excess is evaporated. Please do not use continuous drainage if you intend to use the self-evaporating facility.

END OF SEASON MAINTENANCE

1. Remove the rubber stopper from the drainage hole and empty the internal tank. You can also drain the water by leaning the unit backwards.
2. Run the unit in fan mode, with a low fan speed, with the rubber stopper still removed, and a container under the drain port.
3. Keep the unit in this mode for half day – until the conduit is dried. Doing this helps to keep the inside of the unit dry and prevents moulid from developing.
4. Turn off the unit and pull out the plug.
5. Replace the rubber stopper.
6. Coil the wire and bind it together, then put it into the accessory space.
7. Separate the vent pipe and store it safely.
8. Cover the unit and keep it in a dry place.
9. Take the batteries out of remote control and store or dispose of them safely. Keep all accessories with the unit ready for next season.

FAQ’s

Q1: Why must I keep the unit upright for 3-4 hours before first use?

A: You must keep the electriQ ECOSILENT8W upright for 3-4 hours before switching it on. This allows the refrigerant and compressor oil to settle after transport. If you turn it on immediately, you could permanently damage the internal components and void your warranty.

Q2: How much space should I leave around the air conditioner?

A: For maximum performance, maintain at least 50cm (approximately 19 inches) of clearance from walls, furniture, or other objects. Never cover or restrict the airflow from the outlet or inlet grills.

Q4: What are the operating temperature limits for cooling mode?

A: For best results, do not use the cooling function when the room temperature exceeds 35°C (95°F). The unit will also stop cooling if the ambient temperature drops too low.

Q4: What is “dry mode” and what does the “dH” code mean?

A: Dry mode (dehumidifier mode) removes excess moisture from the air without active cooling. When the unit displays “dH” on the screen, it simply means the unit is in dry mode. This is normal and not an error.

Q5: How do I fix WiFi connection problems?

A: First, ensure the unit is powered on and in the correct WiFi connection mode (indicated by the WiFi light flashing). Make sure your phone is connected to the same 2.4GHz WiFi network. If the setup fails, try turning your mobile data off during the process and retry.
