WindChaser Products PACRWC-HP - Manual (Page 5)

Using the unit in wine cellars or in any room with
a temperature under 61
o F is not recommended.
• Blocking of the filter reduces the efficiency of the air
and increases its power consumption by up to 6%.
• Avoid opening doors frequently.
• Each person present in a room provides between
100 Watts and 150 Watts of heat. Consequently, the
more people there are in a room, the less effective
the unit will be in cooling.
• To ensure the optimal efficiency of the unit, we
advise you to keep doors and windows closed, and
to take into account the surface of the walls and
windows exposed to the sun. In this case, in order
to optimize the functioning of your air conditioner,
we recommend partially closing window coverings.

1. All wiring must comply with local and national
electrical codes and be installed by a qualified
electrician. If you have any questions regarding
the following instructions, contact a qualified
electrician.
2. Check available power supply and resolve any
wiring problems before installation and operation
of this unit.
3. This product must be grounded. If it should
malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides
a path of least resistance for electric current to
reduce the risk of electric shock. This product is
equipped with a cord having an equipment
grounding conductor and a three prong
grounding plug. The plug must be plugged
into an appropriate three prong outlet that is
properly installed and grounded in accordance
with all local codes and ordinances. Do not use
plug adapters or extension cords with this unit.
This unit is provided with a Leakage Current Detection and
Interruption circuit (LCDI) built into the plug of the power
supply cord. This device provides protection to reduce the
risk of fire due to arcing faults in the power-supply cord.
Each time before using the Room Air Conditioner, follow
the "Plug Testing Instructions" given below to ensure that
the LCDI circuit is functioning properly.
PLUG TESTING INSTRUCTIONS:
1. PRESS TEST BUTTON. UNIT SHOULD TRIP.
2. FIRMLY PRESS RESET BUTTON FOR USE.
DO NOT USE IF ABOVE TEST FAILS.
The conductors inside this power supply cord are sur-
rounded by shields which monitor the leakage current.
These shields are not grounded. Periodically examine the
cord for any damage. If the shield gets exposed, immedi-
ately unplug the power supply cord and do not use the
unit. Do not repair a damaged cord. Replace the damaged
cord only with a new replacement power supply cord
obtained from the manufacturer.
In the event the LCDI Plug of the power supply cord trips
by itself, then first examine the cord for any damage. If
there is no damage to the cord then press the RESET
Button. If the LCDI Plug trips again, then immediately
unplug the power supply cord. Replace the damaged
cord with a new replacement power supply cord.
To obtain a new replacement power supply cord contact
WindChaser Products Customer Service at:
(800) 405-2943 or e-mail at:
[email protected].
Do not use The TEST and RESET Buttons as an on / off
switch. They are only meant to be used to periodically
check the LCDI plug.

NOTE: ALL SETTINGS CAN BE VIEWED ON THE REMOTE
DISPLAY
a) Operating Condition - The protective device will
be tripped, and the unit will shut off under these two
conditions:
• Cooling: (1) Outdoor air temperature is over
109 o F (*43 o C). (2) Room temperature is below
61 o F (16 o C).
• Heating: (1) Outdoor air temperature is below
23 o F (-5 o C).
• Dry: Room temperature is below 61 o F (16 o C).
If the air conditioner runs in COOLING or DRY mode with
door or window opened for a long time when relative
humidity is above 80% condensation may drip down from
the outlet.
b) Features of Protector
• Restarting the unit at once after operation stops or if
changing mode during operation, you need to wait
3 minutes.
• Connect to power supply and turn on the unit at once,
it may start 20 seconds later.
• If the plug is taken out, when you restart the appliance,
it will return to the original mode, TIMER ON and
TIMER OFF must be set again.
CONDENSATION ELIMINATION SYSTEM
While air conditioning mode, the unit automatically dehu-
midifies the air in the room. The water from dehumidifica-
tion is stored in a collecting tank and then is immediately
“evaporated” and evacuated via the exhaust port.
However, when it is extremely humid, the water in the col-
lecting tank may fill up. In this case, the Water Full
Indicator Light turns on and the air conditioner switches
itself off.
It is then necessary to drain the water through the conden-
sate drain hose. For draining instructions, please refer to
the “Long Term Storage” instructions under the “Cleaning
and Storage” instructions.
Before cleaning the unit, turn it off and unplug it from the
outlet. For safety reasons, never wash the air conditioner
by hosing it down or wiping it with a dripping wet sponge
or cloth.
Exterior surfaces of the unit
• Clean the air conditioner by using a damp sponge, and
dry it with a clean, soft cloth.
• Never use alcohol or any product containing solvents.
• Never sprinkle water onto the unit. This may cause an
electric shock.
Air filter
The air filter located on the back of the unit, collects dust
contained in the air. To keep the dust from clogging the
unit, your unit must always be used with its air filter.
• The build up of dust reduces the efficiency of the air
conditioner. Therefore, the air filter must be cleaned
every 100 hours of use, and every two weeks if the
unit operates in a dusty atmosphere.
• If the filters are obstructed, the air conditioner will be
less efficient.
• To remove the air filter, place fingers in the notch just
under the top of the air filter handle and pull up.
• Clean the filter with a vacuum cleaner. If the filter is very
dirty, you can wash it in warm water (never use hot or
soapy water). Make sure that the air filter is completely
dry before putting it back in the unit.
• Do not bend the filter.
LONG TERM STORAGE
At the end of the season, or when you do not plan to use
the unit for an extended period of time, we recommend
that you take the following steps:
Drain excess water from the drainpan from the Drain Hose
• Run the unit for 3 to 4 hours in fan mode.
This will thoroughly dry the inside of the unit.
• Disconnect the unit and wrap the power cord
and plug around the cord hooks in the back.
• Take out the batteries from the remote.
• Remove the air hoses and cover the air intake
and air outtake holes with the included covers.
• Clean the unit and air filter and store it in it’s
original packaging, protecting it from dust.
• Store the unit in an upright position. Keep it in
a cool, dry place and away from sunshine.
