AIR CONDITIONER

Operation

FOR COOLING
1. Turn the selector switch to the "LOW COOL" or "HIGH COOL" position.
2. Rotate the thermostat (temperature control) to the position that is the most comfortable to
you. The thermostat will turn the compressor on when the temperature of the air conditioner
rises a few degrees above the setting you have selected. Then the temperature of the air
entering continues to cycle the compressor on and off in the above mentioned fashioin until
the selector switch is turned to another mode of operation.
3. Position the louvers to the desired direction the discharge air is to flow.
NOTE: The fan operation is constant, only the compressor cycles on the thermostat.
OPERATION DURING COOLER NIGHTS
It is important, when the door temperature drops in the evening or during the night to below 75°F
that the thermostat (temperature control) be set at a midpoint between "warmer" and "cooler". If the
setting is at "cooler", the evaporator coil may become iced-up and stop cooling. During the day
when the temperatures have risen above 75°F, reset the thermostat switch to the desired setting.
NOTE: Should icing-up occur, it is necessary to let the cooling (evaporator) coil defrost
before normal cooling operation is resumed. During this time, operate the unit in
the "HIGH FAN" position with the system at maximum air flow. When increased
or full air flow is observed, the cooling coil should be clear of ice.
SHORT CYCLING
When an air conditioner is in operation , its compressor circulates refrigerant under high pressure.
Once off, it will take two to three minutes for this high pressure to equalize.
The air conditioning compressor is unable to start against high pressure. Therefore, once the air
conditioner is turned off, it is important to leave it off for two or three minutes before restarting.
Short cycling the compressor (or starting it before pressures have equalized), will in some instances,
kick the circuit breaker or overload.
FOR AIR CIRCULATION ONLY
1. Turn the selector switch for "LOW FAN" or for maximum air flow, to "HIGH FAN".
2. Position the louvers to the desired direction the discharge air is to flow.
NOTE: When the selector switch is in the "LOW FAN" or "HIGH FAN" position, the
blower motor will operate continuously.
