3. Connect the end part of the flexible pipe to the round fitting for the window (2). The drainage tube can be compressed to minimum 45 mm and extended to maximum 1500 mm. It is advisable to keep the tube compressed to the minimum. 4. Open the windows and lock one of the two leaves with the handle.

HOW TO USE THE APPLIANCE This appliance can be used for SOFTY cooling, heating (only model SOFTY PLUS), dehumidification and ventilation. When switching between modes, the fan continues to turn but the compressor stops: the compressor will re-start after 3 minutes. This delay protects the compressor from potential damage.
NOTE The air conditioner does not cool the room when operating as a dehumidifier. When the appliance is used as a dehumidifier, the flexible pipe must not be connected. For maximum dehumidification efficiency, leave the rear discharge attachment free to discharge directly into the environment. The dehumidification mode is recommended during autumn and winter. If used during summer, it is best to leave the flexible pipe attached so that the hot air is discharged towards the outside rather than into the room.
REMOTE CONTROL OPERATION Insert the batteries into the remote control and make sure the poles match. Only use type-AAA 1.5 V batteries. Remove the batteries if the remote control is not used for a month or longer. Do not attempt to recharge the batteries. Replace all batteries at the same time. Do not throw the batteries into fire: they may explode.
