c
Do not try to operate your air conditioner in the Cool mode when
■
outside temperature is below 61°F (16°C). The inside evaporator
coil will freeze up, and the air conditioner will not operate
properly.
Because the fan does not circulate the room air continuously, less
energy is used, but the room air is not circulated as often.
Dehum—Dries the room. The air conditioner automatically
■
selects the temperature. Fan runs on Low speed only.
NOTE:
Dehum mode should not be used to cool the room.
