User manual DELONGHI PAC A120E QUICK GUIDE

[. . . ] Air entering the room through door and window cracks is normally sufficient. If necessary, leave a door slightly ajar (a gap of approx. 1 cm. is adequate). The unit can also be used as a "temporary" installation for use in any room with a window or french window; this "temporary" installation can be used at any time until it is ready for permanent instalment. N. B. : In either case, check that the unit is resting on at "perfectly level" surface. [. . . ] 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. 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. 24 AIR COOLING FUNCTION If the air cooling function of PAC 26 Super is chosen, it is sufficient not to fill the water container.
