OPERATING
YOUR
UNIT
The operation
of your unit is controlled
by the Infinity _" UI. You
simply program
the UI and it maintains
the indoor temperature
at the
level you select. See UI manual
for detailed
instructions.
To better protect your investment
and to eliminate
unnecessary
ser-
vice calls, familiarize
yourself
with the following
facts:
Step 1--Cooling
Mode
With the SYSTEM
control set to COOL. your unit will run in cool-
ing mode until the indoor temperature
is lowered
to the level you
have selected.
On extremely
hot days, your unit will run for longer
periods at a time and have shorter "off" periods than on moderate
days.
Step 2--Hybrid
Heating
Mode
Your Hybrid
Heat system
combines
the strengths
of two heating
sources;
an electric heat
pump and
a gas furnace.
A Hybrid Heat
system provides
more control over your monthly
energy bills by al-
lowing
you to choose
the most economical
method
of heating.
As
conditions
change,
the system
automatically
switches
between
the
two sources to maintain
greater efficiency
than with a single-source
heating
system.
