11 CARE & MAINTENANCE GENERAL MAINTENANCE It is recommended that after each cooling season the exterior panels and display of the appliance are cleaned with a soft damp cloth. Air filters should be checked and cleaned every week during periods of heavy use. For intermittent use this can be extended to 2 to 3 weeks. If storing the appliance for a prolong period remove the plugs and hoses from the drain outlets (7), (8) and (12) CAUTI ALWAYS turn off the power before you perform any maintenance. DO NOT use solvents, alcohol or harsh cleaners on this appliance or the filters. NEVER use water that is hotter than 40 C when you clean the filters. It may cause deformation or discolouration Back CLEANING THE AIR FILTER There are two air filters in this appliance, there is one filter each fitted to the inside of the Room Air Intake Grill (9), and the Lower Air Intake (10). Before removing the grills, ensure the power cord is disconnected from the power supply. 1. Remove the grills: To remove the Room Air Intake Grill (9) pull down on the top tab and un-clip the grill. To remove the Lower Air Intake Grill (10) use a Philips head screw driver to remove the securing screw and un-clip the grill. 2. Un-clip the filters from each of the grills. Clean the filters with a vacuum cleaner or with warm water. If dirt is difficult to remove, wash the filter in lukewarm water with a mild detergent. 3. Ensuring that the filters are dry before replacing, then clip the filters back into the grill covers. 4. Re-attach the grills: To re-attach the Room Air Intake Grill (9) ensure that all the tabs are properly seated and that the grill is securely clipped back into place. To re-attach the Lower Air Intake Grill (10) ensure that all the tabs are properly seated and that the grill is securely clipped back into place and that the securing screw is replaced. The power may now be reconnected. Failure to clean the filters regularly can cause excessive condensation to form and reduce the appliances efficiency. If you need replacement filters, please contact Rinnai. Rinnai 11 Portable Room AC OIM

12 CARE & MAINTENANCE SAVE A SERVICE CALL SYMPTOM POSSIBLE CAUSES POSSIBLE SOLUTIS Appliance will not operate. Not plugged into power. Plug into power. Power to Appliance but it will not start. The air conditioner does not generate enough cool air. Power switch. Timer Function set. After switching off the appliance there may be a 3 minute delay before it may be re-started. Room temperature is lower than the set temperature. P1 appears on the display. The air intake filters are blocked The set temperature is too high. Drafts from open windows and doors. Other heat sources in the room. Cooling space too big. Switch power. Wait or reset timer function. Wait 3 minutes. Adjust the set temperature to be lower than the room temperature. Drain the water from the drain outlets. Clean air filters. Adjust the set temperature to a lower temperature. Close windows and doors in the area you want to be cooled. Remove or turn off heat sources. Operate the appliance within the required cooling capacity. Too noisy or vibrating. Operating surface not level Move the appliance to level a operating surface. Splashing sound. WHEN TO CALL FOR SERVICE High level of condensate being generated. This is normal. This appliance has a pump that evaporates some condensate through the exhaust duct. SYMPTOM There is a burning smell and a strange sound coming from the unit. CAUSE Turn off the air conditioner, and contact Rinnai. When operated if a circuit breaker (safety, ground) is thrown or a fuse is blown. Rinnai 12 Portable Room AC OIM

13 HIGH MID LOW COLL HEAT DRY FAN C F TIMER SLEEP SWING HIGH MID LOW COLL HEAT DRY FAN F C TIMER SLEEP SWING INSTALLATI LOCATI This portable air conditioner must be installed on a flat and dry surface. A minimum clearance of 500mm from walls or other appliances is required as well as easy access to a power point (GPO). The air outlets and the ducting system must not be obstructed. 500mm 500mm IMPORTANT The appliance is fitted with a 1.2m flexible 2 pin cord V 50Hz 10A. The maximum duct extension is 1.8m in total. 500mm 500mm Both factors are to be taken into account when determining the location that the appliance will be operated in. DUCT ASSEMBLY Front 5 Back Place the Duct to Unit Adaptor (17) over the Exhaust Outlet (5), push it downwards to ensure it engages the Exhaust Outlet tabs. 2. Screw one end of the Exhaust Duct (16) into the Duct to Unit Adaptor (17). 3. On the other end of the Exhaust Duct (16) fix either the Window Exhaust Duct Adaptor (15) or the Wall Exhaust Adaptor (18). Rinnai 13 Portable Room AC OIM

14 INSTALLATI EXHAUST DUCTING OPTIS There are two ducting options available for this appliance, these are a Window installation or an optional Semipermanent wall installation. IMPORTANT DO NOT over extend the exhaust duct. Over extension of the exhaust duct can lead to kinking. Kinked ducting causes air flow restrictions and lowers the efficiency of the appliance. Keeping the exhaust duct as short as possible avoids this issue. WINDOW INSTALLATIS The window kit has been designed to fit most standard vertical and horizontal window applications. There may be some cases where you may need to modify some aspects of this installation procedure for certain window types. Minimum and maximum horizontal / vertical window opening dimensions: Horizontal Window Installation A Vertical Window Installation A Window Installation kit A - Minimum = 675mm A - Maximum = 1250mm 1. Once a suitable window has been chosen, fit the Adjustable Slider Kit (14) into the window areas and fix the length of the kit using the supplied slide lock nut and bolt. Slide lock nut and bolt Insert window exhaust duct adaptor here Foam seal It is recommended to place a length of foam draft sealing strip along the top and bottom edges of the kit or the inside the window opening to form a seal. 2. Connect the Window Exhaust Duct Adaptor (15) to the Adjustable Slider Kit (14). Rinnai 14 Portable Room AC OIM

15 SEMI-PERMANENT WALL INSTALLATI INSTALLATI In some cases a window opening might not be assessable; therefore this appliance is supplied with semi-permanent wall flange kit that can be connected the Exhaust Duct. WARNING The positioning and installation of the wall flange should be completed by an authorised person and must comply with all municipal building codes and OH&S guidelines. CDENSATE DRAINAGE Condensate produced by this appliance is NOT potable, dispose of via waste outlet or allow to evaporate. 7 INTERNAL CDENSATE TANK During operation the appliance may produce small amounts of condensate. The appliance has an inbuilt condensate tank. If all three drain outlets (7), (8) and (12) are plugged, then this tank may reach capacity. If this happens, the appliance will stop operation and the condensate full code P1 will be shown on the control panel display and the condensate tank will need to be drained before operation can be resumed. To do this: Place shallow tray such as an oven baking tray or similar (with at least a 1 litre volume) under Drain Tray Outlet (12). 2. Remove the plug from Drain Tray Outlet (12) and drain out the condensate water, once the condensate is drained replace the plug, the appliance will now be able to then resume operation. Shallow baking tray FIXED CDENSATE DRAINAGE HOSE As an alternative to using the appliances internal condensate tank, a condensate drain hose (20) may de fitted. 7 Option 1 7 Option Option 1 - External Drain Tray: with drain outlets (8) and (12) plugged, fit the condensate drain hose (20) to drain outlet (7) and drain the condensate into a drain tray. Option 2 - Existing Waste Outlet: with drain outlets (7) and (8) plugged, fit the condensate drain hose (20) to drain outlet (12) and drain the condensate into a drain tray or waste outlet. The point to which the condensate is to be drained MUST BE lower than the drainage outlet point. When using a drain tray option, ensure that the capacity of the tray is greater than that of the condensate being produced. Rinnai 15 Portable Room AC OIM
