Standard Control
Control Pad - Can be unit-mounted or can be remote wall
mounted. Remote mounting requires an accessory 35´ or 50´
low-voltage wire harness and snap-in decorative cover. The
mounting location must be away from cold drafts, discharge
air, outside walls, etc., because the room temperature sensor
is mounted in the control pad (if dip switch #2 of 4, behind the
access cover on front of the control box, is "ON"). A wireless
hand-held remote controller is also available as an accessory,
which allows control of the conditioner from anywhere in the
room.

satisfied. The next call for heat will be reverse cycle, pro-
vided the outdoor temperature is above the 30-40
When the outdoor temperature is less than 25
the heating will be with electric resistance. Between 25
and 40

F, the primary heat will be reverse cycle with occa-
sional resistance heat as required to maintain room tem-
perature. Above 40

activate "COOL/DRY". Use the
room temperature. Select this mode when the standard Cool
mode does not provide sufficient dehumidification. The com-
pressor and indoor low fan will cycle together and will operate
for longer periods of time to provide up to 70% more dehu-
midification. As a result, the room temperature differential may
increase slightly.
NOTE: COOL/DRY can not be used with SLEEP.
Fan Speed
Select fan speed by pressing the FAN key to
"AUTO", "HIGH" or "LOW" while the unit is operating in
"HEAT", or "COOL" mode. "AUTO" gives high fan if unit set-

o
low fan if less than 2
F above or below room temperature.
Continuous/Cycle Fan
When dip switch #8, located on front
of the control box, behind the access cover, is in the "OFF"
position, the indoor fan will operate continuously. When dip
switch #8 is in the "ON" position, the indoor fan will cycle on
and off with the compressor or heater. In cycle fan, (dip switch
#8 "ON") the fan will start every 7 minutes to sample the room
temperature. Fan will turn off again after 2 minutes unless heat-
ing or cooling is required.

a unit-mounted sensor will be activated to bring on the elec-
tric heater and indoor fan as required to maintain a 40
minimum temperature. This will override "OFF", remote "OFF",
"COOL", "COOL/DRY", "FAN" and "UNOCCUPIED" modes.
When dip switch #4 of 4 is "ON", there is no freeze protection.
Also, if using a 24V wall stat, there is no freeze protection (un-
less provided by the wall stat).
IMPORTANT NOTE: When dip switch #4 of 4 is "ON", there
