Turbo Greenland GLP07AC - Air Conditioner Manual

Tips for First-Time Use

Before using TURBRO Portable Air Conditioner, please read this manual carefully and retain it for future reference.

1. Allow the unit to sit upright for at least 3-4 hours before powering on Shipping carriers may set the unit on its side, which causes the refrigerant to pool in certain areas. Standing the unit upright for 3-4 hours allows the refrigerant to move freely within the coils
2. Some parts with sharp edges may cause injury, so gloves are high y recommended for unpacking and installing.
3. Run the unit continuously for 24 hours after letting the unit stand upright for 3 4 hours. This wil give even the smallest and technical y unavoidable air bubbles in the coolant circuit that may have been created during transport from our factory to your doorstep the opportunity to migrate to the top of the cooling circuit.
4. If you have any difficulties during installation, please contact Customer Support Team via support@turbro.com for help.
5. If you have any problems with your product, please send us an email before submitting a return request, as there might be a simple solution for your issue.

Water Drainage Methods

TURBRO portable air conditioner comes with the auto-evaporation system. The unit can automatically evaporate the condensate. There is no need to empty the water except in humid conditions. When you run the dry mode, then it's required to install the hose as the unit might pull more water from the air.

When the water tank is full with water, the unit stops running and shows (FULL TANK as mentioned on SELF-DIAGNOSE ). The compressor and fan won't restart until the water tank has been drained.

There are 2 ways to remove collected water from the air conditioner.

Method A: Manual Drainage

1. Switch off the device and disconnect it from the mains by pulling out the mains plug.
2. Place a receptacle pan (does not include) under the lower drain port.
3. Remove the cap from the lower drain port and allow the water to flow into the pan. Your pan may not hold the full contents of the water tank. A number of fills of your pan may be required.
4. Tilt the unit by lifting it slightly upwards from the front until no more water drains from the outlet.
5. After the water is drained, replace the cap on the lower drain firmly.
6. Reconnect the power plug to the power outlet and restart the air conditioner by pressing the power switch. Ensure that the unit is in COOL or DRY mode. The compressor will start approximately 3 minutes after the unit is turned on.

Method B: Continuous Draining

1. Switch off the device and disconnect it from the mains by pulling out the mains plug.
2. Remove the drain cap from the lower or middle drain port. During this step, some residual water may spill so place a receptacle pan (does not include) under the drain port to collect the water.
3. Insert the 1/2" drain hose into the drain port. The water can be continuously drained through the hose to the floor or a bucket. If you use a bucket, do not forget to empty it regularly.

NOTE

• Pease be sure that of the height of and section of the drain hose should not be higher than that of the drain outlet, or the water tank may not be drained.
