The unit has a three-minute compressor delay in order to prevent potential circuit overloads at
start up.
Automatic Restart Feature
The unit will turn on and resume operation automatically when power is restored after a power
outage. The unit will use the same settings that it used immediately before the power outage
occurred. Note: If the power outage is brief, the unit will run the fan alone for three minutes
before resuming normal operation. The delay allows the compressor to depressurize so the
unit will function properly when it enters Cool mode.
