USING YOUR AIR CONDITIONER

Appearance may vary.
Turning the Air Conditoner ON or OFF
Press POWER to turn the air conditoner ON or OFF.
IMPORTANT:
If you turn off the air conditioner, wait at least 3
■
minutes before turning it back on. This prevents the
air conditioner from blowing a fuse or tripping a circuit
breaker.
Do not try to operate your air conditioner in the Cool mode
■
when outside temperature is below 65°F (18°C). The inside
evaporator coil will freeze up, and the air conditioner will not
operate properly.
NOTE: In the event of a power failure, your air conditioner will
operate at the previous settings when the power is restored.
Display
During normal operation, display will show the
current room temperature. When the TEMP/TIME t
and s buttons are pressed, the unit will display the
set temperature or delay time.
Selecting the Mode
The Mode button has three settings:
Cool (COOL)
■
Dehumidify (DEHUM)
■
Fan (FAN)
■
Press the MODE button until the indicator light for the desired
setting is lit.
Cooling (COOL) Mode
In cooling mode, the air conditioner cools air from the room and
vents hot air to the outdoors through the vent hose. Adjust fan
speed and the temperature setting to fit your desired comfort
level. Temperature setting range is 61°F–90°F (16°C–32°C).
IMPORTANT: The vent hose must exhaust to the outdoors when
using cool mode.
Dehumidify (DEHUM) Mode
Air is dehumidified as it passes through the unit, without being
in full cooling mode. For temperatueres above 77°F (25°C), the
fan speed is adjustable. If the termperature is 77°F (25°C) or
below, the fan speed is set automatically to LOW and cannot be
adjusted.
IMPORTANT: For best results, the continuous drain hose should
be connected and the vent hose should not be exhausted to the
outside, allowing the warm air to recirculate into the room.
