To troubleshoot cooling issues and operate the remote control for the Airwell Thru-the-Wall Room Air Conditioner:

Troubleshooting Cooling Issues:
- If the unit is turned off and on quickly, it will delay starting for 3 minutes to prevent compressor overheating. The fan will still run during this time.
- If the room is too cold, the set temperature may be too low. Increase the set temperature.
- Water dripping outside during cooling is normal on very humid days.

Operating the Remote Control:
- Ensure the remote is within 20 feet and within a 180° range in front of the unit.
- Remove any obstruction blocking the remote signal.
- To switch temperature display between Fahrenheit and Celsius, press and hold the Up and Down Temp/Timer buttons together for 3 seconds.
