About the controls on the air conditioner.
Cool Mode
Use the Cool mode at Low, Med, High or Auto Fan
Speed for cooling. Use the Temperature Increase
/ Decrease pads to set the desired temperature
between 64°F and 86°F in 1°F increments.
An electronic thermostat is used to maintain the room
temperature. The compressor will cycle on and off
to keep the room at the set level of comfort. Set the
thermostat at a lower number and the indoor air will
become cooler. Set the thermostat at a higher number
and the indoor air will become warmer.
NOTE: If the air conditioner is off and is then turned on
while set to a Cool setting or if turned from a fan setting
to a Cool setting, it may take approximately 3 minutes
for the compressor to start and cooling to begin.
Cooling Descriptions
For Normal Cooling—Select the Cool mode and
High or Med fan with a middle set temperature.
For Maximum Cooling—Select the Cool mode
and High fan with a lower set temperature.
For Quieter and Nighttime Cooling—Select the
Cool mode and Low fan with a middle set
temperature.
Fan Only Mode
Use the Fan Only Mode at Low, Med or High fan
speed to provide air circulation and filtering without
cooling. Since fan-only settings do not provide
cooling, a Set temperature cannot be entered. The
room temperature will appear
in the display.
NOTE: Auto Fan Speed cannot be used when in the
Fan Only Mode.
Energy Saver Mode
Controls the fan.
ON—The fan will cycle on and off with the
compressor. This results in wider variations of room
temperature and humidity. Normally used when the
room is unoccupied. NOTE: The fan may continue to
run for a short time after the compressor cycles off.
OFF—The fan runs all the time, while the compressor
cycles on and off.
Set to Auto fan speed for the fan speed to
automatically set to the speed needed to provide
optimum comfort settings with the set temperature.
If the room needs more cooling, the fan speed
will automatically increase. If the room needs less
cooling, the fan speed will automatically decrease.
NOTE: Auto Fan Speed cannot be used when in the
Fan Only Mode.
