Ventilation Control

When you move the Ventilation
Control to CLOSE, the vent door
is closed and only the air inside
the room will be circulated and
conditioned. Moving the control
to OPEN opens the vent door,
allowing a small amount of indoor
air to be exhausted from the room.
However, cooling effectiveness is
reduced when this control is set at
OPEN, so we suggest you don't
keep it there long—especially in
hot, humid weather.
For normal cooling
1. Set the Selector Switch at HI
COOL.
2. Set the Thermostat Control at
the desired number (usually 4-6 is
a good starting position). If room
temperature is not satisfactory
after a reasonable time, set the
Thermostat Control at a higher
number for a cooler room or at a
lower number for a warmer room.
3. Set the Energy Saver Switch at
NORMAL position.
4. Set the Ventilation Control at
CLOSE except for brief periods
when you want to exhaust room air
to the outside.
For maximum cooling
1. Set the Selector Switch at
HI COOL.
2. Turn the Thermostat Control

3. Be sure the Ventilation Control
is in the CLOSE position.
4. Set the Energy Saver Switch at
NORMAL position.
For quieter operation
1. Set the Selector Switch at LO
COOL position.
2. Turn the Thermostat Control to
the desired number.
3. Be sure the Ventilation Control
is in the CLOSE position.
4. Set the Energy Saver Switch at
NORMAL position.
Note: When the Energy Saver
Switch is at the SAVE position,
changes in the sound level may be
more noticeable than when it's at
the NORMAL position.
For nighttime operation
During the cooler evening hours,
we recommend that you set the
Selector Switch at LO COOL
for quieter operation and the
Thermostat Control at mid-range
(5 or 6). Be sure the Ventilation
Control is in the CLOSE position,
NORMAL or SAVE position.
For extreme temperatures
For greatest economy and best
performance, we suggest you set
the Selector Switch at HI COOL in
extremely hot weather.
To adjust air direction

The up-and-down air direction
louvers are controlled by tabs that
