Air Conditioner Features
(continued)
To use Energy Saver press the MODE button to select:
You will save energy usage in this mode. The compressor and motor will turn off once
the room is at the desired temperature. The air will be sampled for 20 seconds every
10 minutes until the room is above the set temperature, at which point the compressor
turns back on and the fan runs. The entire process is now repeated.
To use the Sleep feature press the SLEEP button and the LED will illuminate:
The set temperature will increase 2 °F 30 minutes after this mode is selected. It will
increase again after 30 minutes by another 2 °F. It will stay at this set point for 7 hours,
and then return to the original setting.
To use the Timer function press the TIMER button and the LED will illuminate:
Press the UP and DOWN arrows to select the desired time up to 24 hrs. The control will
count down the time remaining in 1 and 0.5 hr increments. If you need to change the set
temperature, press MODE then the UP/DOWN arrows. Then after 5 seconds the display
will revert to the hours remaining. This mode can be cancelled by pressing the TIMER
button. The mode will operate one time, then the above steps have to be repeated.
NOTE= Timer button is functional when On/Off button is set to either On or Off. When
set to On, the amount selected is the time remaining until the unit shuts Off. When set
to Off, the amount is the time until the unit turns On.
Check Filter Feature:
After 250 hours of operation, the Filter Reset LED will light. This is a reminder to clean
the filter housed behind the front panel to keep the unit operating efficiently. Pressing the
FILTER RESETbutton for 3 seconds will reset this reminder and turn off the LED.
Heating Feature (on some models):
This feature can be used with any combination of FAN Speeds, Timer, or Sleep Modes.
When in the "Heat" Mode, the fan will run continuously while heat is needed. The
temperature will automatically be maintained anywhere between 55 °F(13 °C) and 80 °F
(27 °C). When the set temperature is satisfied, the fan will cycle off and on to circulate
and sample the room air.
Note= When unit is shut off in the Heat Mode, the Fan will continue to run for a few
seconds to dissipate residual heat within the unit.
