® REMOTE CONTROL AUTO COOL PM FAN SPEED ECONOMY BATTERY LOW owner’s manual Breezair ® coolers have been designed to provide quiet, reliable and cool comfort. At Seeley International we manufacture Breezair ® evaporative coolers from the highest quality materials, and we have designed the product to provide many years of economical, trouble free cooling. Please take a few moments to read these operating instructions, so that the most can be gained from this investment. Breezair ® coolers are fitted with either a Wall Mounted Thermostat Control or a Remote Thermostat Control. Please refer to the relevant section in this manual for instructions on how to operate either system. Also, please be aware of the components and features that are fitted to your particular cooler. introduction page Hello and congratulations on purchasing a Breezair ® Ducted Cooler for your home. EFFECTIVE COOLING To provide efficient cooling or ventilation the building must have sufficient exhaust openings to the outside of the building. To assist air flow, open windows and doors that are farthest from the outlet vent in each room. In these rooms, provide an exhaust opening about 2 times the vent size of the room. Where the design of the building prevents adequate exhaust, consideration should be given to the provision of mechanical extractions, such as an exhaust fan. Important Note! In areas where temperatures can cause water supply pipes to freeze, a drain down facility should be provided during the installation. This drain down facility must be activated prior to freezing conditions, to avoid possible damage to the cooler components. Keep these instructions in a safe place for future reference. ® thermostat range REMOTE CONTROL AUTO COOL PM FAN SPEED ECONOMY ILL239-D Remote Thermostat Control (remote control) ® ILL1140-A Wall Mounted Thermostat Control (wall control) contents page Remote Thermostat Control..............5 Wall Mounted Thermostat Control...11 Bleed Funnel & Drain Valve............15 Power Outages...............................15 Seasonal Maintenance...................16 Troubleshooting..............................18 Service & Warranty.........................20 ® thermostat control remote SETTING THE CLOCK Set the clock on the remote control before proceeding with any other programming.

Once it is enabled the cooler, when first switched on, will operate as follows: COOL PM FAN SPEED ECONOMY ILL1125-A DRAIN MODE Pressing the button opens the drain valve in the cooler and empties the water in the tank. This will leave the tank clean and dry and turn the cooler off. (1)...... If the tank is empty the drain system will be closed. The tank will then be filled. (2)...... After 60 seconds of the tank filling with water, the pump will turn on and saturate the filter pads. (3)...... After the pump has been running for 3 minutes the fan will start. remote MANUAL thermostat control ECONOMY MODE During this operation the word PRE-COOL will be displayed on the remote control’s screen. MANUAL COOL PM DRAIN TANK ILL1107-A FAN SPEED PRE-COOL ECONOMY If the cooler has not been used for 3 days or 3 hours, depending on the DIP switch setting - see page 10, the tank will automatically be drained to ensure the system remains clean. ILL1142-A NOTE: PRE-COOL mode will not be activated if VENT is selected on the remote control or the cooler is used again shortly after having been turned off. ® thermostat control remote WATER MANAGER ® The Breezair ® remote control is fitted with the WaterManager ® feature which automatically monitors the quality of the water in the cooler. MANUAL COOL The WaterManager ® drains the existing water in the cooler to allow it to be replaced with fresh water, only when it is needed. Therefore, you may notice your cooler draining water occasionally. How often the WaterManager ® performs this operation depends upon the quality of the water supply and the rate of evaporation. In areas of poor water quality, the WaterManager ® will operate more often as it tries to maintain the optimum water quality in the cooler. This maximises the cooling effect and life of the cooling pads. The remote control has a unique feature attached to the WaterManager ® that allows you to specify either high or low salinity settings. The low salinity setting is used in specific circumstances only. We recommend talking with your dealer before adjusting this setting. MANUAL COOL FAN SPEED ECONOMY ILL1111-A The high salinity setting is designed to operate the cooler at a maximum safe salinity level to maintain a normal working life. It also results in a minimum usage of water . ® PM FAN SPEED ECONOMY ILL1110-A NOTE: High salinity outlet water should not be used on salt sensitive grass or plants. It has a high salt content. The current WaterManager ® setting is displayed by holding down the button and pressing the button. The setting can be changed by holding down the button and pressing either the or button for HI and LO respectively. The factory default WaterManager ® setting is HI. For areas operating with bore water, DIP switch F should be switched to off (see page 10). This will disable the salinity measuring circuit and simply drain water from the tank every 65 minutes of operation. DIP SWITCHES The remote control requires 3 AAA batteries. The use of good quality alkaline batteries is recommended. Under normal conditions a set of batteries will operate for 12 months. We recommend that you replace the batteries before each season. Do not use rechargeable batteries as their voltage rating is too low for the remote control. There are 2 rows of DIP switches located under the battery cover on the remote control. thermostat control BATTERIES WARNING: Do not alter DIP switches 1 to 10 as the cooler will cease to work. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 ON OFF AUTO COOL A B C D E F 9 10 ON OFF EXAMPLE ONLY ILL217-G remote When the batteries are getting low on power, BATTERY LOW is displayed on the screen (the cooler may also switch off while the display remains ON).

This can be set by changing the salinity control method selector if using the wall control, or DIP switch F if using the remote control. BLEED SYSTEM NOTE: When the cooler’s tank is empty and the cooler is turned on again, the fan operation will be delayed as the tank is refilled and the pads are saturated. If fitted, the bleed system, pictured on page 16, will constantly drain small amounts of water during the operation of the cooler. This allows fresh water to be added diluting any minerals and salts accumulated. The bleed rate for your cooler will depend on local operating conditions and will be set by the installer. DRAIN VALVE If your cooler has been installed with a drain valve it is accompanied by the WaterManager ® salinity probes. When the tank’s water salinity level reaches a preset level the WaterManager ® will open the drain valve and release about 6 to 8 litres. Fresh water will then be added diluting any minerals or salts accumulated. The Water Manager ® will continue to monitor and drain water as required. Alternatively, the cooler can be set to drain 6 to 8 litres of water at a preset period of pump 15 ® POWER OUTAGES If the power in your home goes off for less than 5 seconds the cooler will retain its current settings.
