Installation Guide

Installing your Arctic King air conditioner properly is crucial for its performance and safety. Before you begin, carefully review the installation instructions provided in this manual. Ensure that you have all the necessary tools and materials. Select a location that is well-ventilated, free from obstructions, and near a power outlet.

Consult a qualified electrician or HVAC technician for professional installation if needed. Once installed, ensure that the air conditioner is securely mounted and that all electrical connections are properly made. Always disconnect the power supply before performing any maintenance or repairs.

Window Installation

To install your Arctic King air conditioner in a window, you’ll need to ensure the window is properly sized. It should be a standard double-hung window with an opening width of 23 to 36 inches (584mm to 914mm). Carefully follow the steps outlined in the installation manual. Measure the window opening and select the appropriate mounting brackets. Attach the brackets to the air conditioner unit and then secure the unit in the window opening. Make sure the unit is level and that the brackets are securely fastened. Extend the exhaust hose out of the window and secure it with the provided clips. Connect the air conditioner to a power outlet and turn it on to test its operation. If you have any questions or encounter difficulties during the installation process, contact Arctic King customer service for assistance.

Wall Installation

Installing your Arctic King air conditioner on a wall requires careful planning and execution. Ensure the wall can support the unit’s weight and that you have the appropriate tools and materials. Choose a suitable location for installation, considering factors like electrical access, proximity to a window for exhaust hose placement, and the unit’s size. Mark the wall for mounting bracket placement and drill pilot holes. Secure the brackets firmly to the wall. Carefully lift and attach the air conditioner unit to the brackets, ensuring it is level and stable. Connect the exhaust hose to the unit and run it through a window or vent to the exterior. Plug the unit into a power outlet and test its functionality. Always consult the installation manual for detailed instructions and safety precautions.

Operating Instructions

The timer function allows you to set the unit to turn on or off automatically at a specific time. This feature can help you conserve energy by only running the unit when you need it.

Cooling Mode

The Cooling Mode on your Arctic King air conditioner provides a refreshing and comfortable environment by lowering the room temperature. To activate Cooling Mode, simply press the MODE button on the remote control until the COOL indicator light illuminates. You can then adjust the desired temperature using the UP and DOWN buttons on the remote. The temperature can be set within a range of 17°C to 30°C (62°F to 86°F).

The Cooling Mode is ideal for keeping cool during hot summer days and ensuring a comfortable indoor environment.

To activate Dehumidifying Mode, press the MODE button on the remote control until the DEHUMIDIFY indicator light illuminates. This mode is particularly useful during humid seasons or in areas prone to moisture buildup. When in Dehumidifying Mode, the air conditioner will operate at a lower fan speed and circulate the air to extract moisture. This can help prevent mold growth and mildew formation, creating a healthier indoor environment. Remember that the Dehumidifying Mode does not cool the room; it primarily focuses on reducing humidity levels.

Fan Mode

Fan Mode allows you to circulate air throughout your room without cooling or dehumidifying. This mode is ideal for gentle air circulation, providing a refreshing breeze without the chill of cooling. To activate Fan Mode, press the MODE button on your remote control until the FAN indicator light is illuminated. You can then adjust the fan speed using the UP and DOWN buttons to select your preferred level of air circulation. This mode is especially useful for those who prefer a natural breeze or want to ventilate the room without using cooling or dehumidifying functions.

To use the Timer Function, press the TIMER ON button on the remote control repeatedly to set the time that you want the unit to turn on. After setting the desired time, the digital display on your remote control will return to the temperature display, indicating that the timer function is activated; You can also use the TIMER OFF button to set a timer for the air conditioner to turn off.
