Now that you have mastered the operating procedure, here are more features in your control that
you should become familiar with.
The cool circuit has an automatic 3 minutes time delayed start if the unit is turned off and
on quickly. This prevents overheating of the compressor and possible circuit breaker
tripping.
After a power outage, the unit will memorize the last setting and return the unit to the same
setting once power is restored.
