PREPARING UNIT FOR OPERATION
INSTALLATION

Be sure to read and familiarize yourself with the complete manual that comes with the unit before installing and operating COOLIT3000 Series Portable Air Conditioner(s).

Your new COOLIT unit has passed a double quality assurance program; once before leaving the factory and again before leaving the regional warehouse. If you find shipping damage please contact both ADAPT and the point of purchase immediately. DO NOT OPERATE THE UNIT.

I M P O R T A N T: Unpack your unit and inspect to ensure unit is in good condition.

To further prepare the unit for operation proceed as follows:

START UP PROCEDURE

 

1. Remove The COOLIT packaging.

Unpack and inspect the unit for visible shipping damage.  If you find shipping damage, DO NOT OPERATE THE UNIT.  Keep all packaging.

2. Remove COOLIT unit from skid.

The COOLIT3000 unit is immobilized on the skid by eight wooden blocks.   Each block is secured with two screws.  Remove the screws from each of the blocks and remove the blocks.  Now slide the COOLIT unit to the side to remove the unit from the skid.

3. Place the unit on a flat, solid surface.

Operation on uneven surfaces may cause vibration, noise and possible water leakage from condensate system.

4. Check that the condensate water tanks are in place and properly seated.

If the condensate tanks are not installed properly the unit will not operate.  The COOLIT unit has a unique condensate removal system that is integral to the unit.  Refer to the Automatic Condensate Draining section on page 12 of the manual to use this feature.

5. Remove filter from plastic packaging and properly place in filter rack.

To maintain efficiency and avoid damage to the unit, never operate the unit without the air filters installed in the proper direction.  Please consult the instructions included with your filter for operation and maintenance instructions.

6. Exhaust duct installation for the COOLIT3300.

Pull the exhaust hose up and out from the top of the COOLIT unit.  Next take out a tile from your ceiling and place the panel, with the warm air duct attached, into the empty ceiling space.  NOTE: If you run your unit only in fan mode then there is no need to duct the warm air because no air will blow through the condenser.

7. Plug COOLIT unit into a NEMA L6-20 outlet.

Plug unit directly into the appropriate wall outlet.  Do not plug the COOLIT unit into extension cord.  When power is applied to the unit, the power indicator will be green.

8. Turn the COOLIT unit on by selecting operation mode and fan speed.

To turn the unit on, select either FAN ONLY or COOL mode.  When you select COOL the compressor will not engage immediately.  There is a 3-5 minute time delay.  Now select either LOW FAN or HIGH FAN.  The fan speed selector controls the evaporator fan speed in both the FAN ONLY and COOL modes.

9. Set the desired temperature.

To set the temperature you must select a setting using the thermostat dial on the control panel.  The settings range from 60°F to 90°F.

10. Shut off the COOLIT unit.

To shut down the COOLIT unit return the operation mode selector to the center position between FAN ONLY and COOL modes.  Since the unit is still plugged into the wall outlet the "power" indicator will still be illuminated.  This is normal and indicates that there is power to the unit.

W A R N I N G:

To reduce risk of fire or electric shock do not expose unit to rain or moisture. Do not open cabinet while unit is connected to a power source. Dangerous voltage is present. Have repairs performed by certified HVAC technicians.

MAINTENANCE

C A U T I O N
To avoid injury or fatality from electrical shock, turn the unit off and unplug before performing maintenance or cleaning. Do not spray with water or any liquid! 

Air Filter: Clean the air filters every two to three weeks or as required by the environment and usage. A dirty filter will reduce the cooling of the unit. Clean the filter by vacuum or wash with a mild detergent and air dry if you have an electrostatic filter or throw away if you are using a disposable air filter.

Air Intakes: Keep 'em clean! Use a vacuum or soft brush. 

Exterior Surfaces: Wipe it down with a damp soft cloth or sponge. Don't use any chemicals or other junk - you'll just ruin your machine. 

Water Tanks: Keep them clean. Use a mild soap and make sure to rinse them well.
