The controls featured in this manual are representational of the many models
available. Your model may offer slightly different features.
Selector Control
The selector control turns the unit on or off and allows a choice of either cooling room
air, circulating room air at the existing temperature, or heating room air (some
models).
COOL/FAN
Operate COOL/FAN models according to the following suggestions:
• ON/OFF or OFF = Turns air conditioner on and off,
• HIGH COOL = Maximum cooling speed. Begin operation of the air conditioner in
this mode.
• MEDIUM COOL (some models) = Fan runs slower for moderate cooling speeds.
• LOW COOL = Fan runs stow for quiet operation when maximum cooling is not
needed.
• HIGH FAN = Maximum air circulation without cooling
• MEDIUM FAN (some models) = Moderate air circulation without cooling.
• LOW FAN -- Slow air circulatioa without cooling.
HEAT (some models)
The HEAT selection provides quiet, efficient circulation of warm air. Turn the selector
to the HEAT setting and set the thermostat at number 1, or lowest setting. When the
HEAT setting is selected, the thermostat maintains the temperature by automatically
turning the heater on and off in response to room temperature. The fan runs
continuously to circulate air in the room.
Once the room is warm, adjust the thermostat to a higher number. Higher numbers
provide less heat, or cooler temperatures.
A slight heat odor may come from the unit when first switching to HEAT after the
cooling season is over. This odor, caused by fine dust particles on the heater, will
disappear quickly.
