FILLING WITH WATER

Disconnect the power to the cooler before filling. Open the water

inlet door (see Fig 7) and pour in clean water. The water capacity is

1- 1/2 gallons (6 liters). The minimum amount of water needed for

the pump to operate is 1/2 gallon (2 liters).

The cooler is full when the water level meter indicates the highest

reading. Close the water inlet door after filling. No damage will

occur to the pump if the cooler is operated without water.

4) FAN SPEED

•Set the fan knob to the "HIGH" or "LOW" position.

• The cooler may be used as a fan only, this is

done by turning the "COOL" knob to the "OFF"

position. (see Fig 8)

5) OSCILLATION

• Set the oscillation knob to the "ON" position.

(see Fig 10)

How to get the best cooling performance:

1) Place the cooler with its back near an open

window or door so it can draw in 100% fresh

outdoor air. Open another window or door on the

opposite side of the room for "flow through"

ventilation. This cooler will not cool properly in a

closed room.

2) We recommend that when the cooler is first used

it should be run for 10 minutes in the "COOL", "HIGH"

setting.
