There is no model with that number listed on their site so it's probably a custom one, made very recently specifically for a chain of stores. In that case this one should be very close to what you have

But if the unit is an older model (as in at least 5 years), the one with rotating dials, then this is its manual

You can get all kind of Windchaser AC manuals here: http://manuals-market.com/search.php?cmarque=PERFORMANCE%20TEKNIQUE&modele=ICBM%20779.
After clicking this link you will be forwarded to a page contains a form. You need to fill up that form. Most of them are pre-filled. You need to write "Windchaser" in Brand box and model number in "model number" box.
Please don't forget to mention "Air Condotioner" in the "description box". Finally accept their "terms and condition" and click on "search" tab.
Hope this will help you. Good Luck.
