pads to set the desired temperature between 64°F and 86°F

An electronic thermostat is used to maintain the room 

temperature. The compressor will cycle on and off to keep 

the room at the set level of comfort. Set the thermostat at a 

lower number and the indoor air will become cooler. Set the 

thermostat at a higher number and the indoor air will become 

warmer.

NOTE:

 If the air conditioner is off and is then turned on 

while set to a 

Cool

 setting or if turned from a fan setting to 

Cool

 setting, it may take approximately 3 minutes for the 

compressor to start and cooling to begin.

Fan Only Mode

Use the Fan Only Mode at Low, Med or High fan speed to 

provide air circulation and filtering without cooling. Since

cannot be entered. The room temperature will appear in the 

display.

NOTE:

 Auto Fan Speed cannot be used when in the  

Fan Only 

Mode. 

Energy Saver Mode

In the case of a power outage or interruption, the unit will 
automatically restart in the settings last used after the power 
is restored. If the

countdown. You may need to set a new time if desired.

 Auto

 fan speed for the fan speed to automatically set 

to the speed needed to provide optimum comfort settings 
with the set temperature.   
If the room needs more cooling, the fan speed will 

automatically increase. If the room needs less cooling, the fan 
speed will automatically decrease. 

NOTE: 

Auto Fan Speed cannot be used when in the 

Fan Only 

Mode.

outdoor conditions. It must not be used in freezing outdoor 

conditions.

„

To ensure proper operation, aim the remote control at the 
signal receiver on the air conditioner.

„

 

Make sure nothing is between the air conditioner and the 
remote control that could block the signal.

„

 

The remote control signal has a range of up to 20 feet.

„

 

Make sure batteries are fresh and installed correctly as 
indicated on the remote control.

„

 

Remote contains a magnet allowing it to attach to metal 
surfaces.

Remote Control

This mode optimizes the cooling power of your air 

conditioner, thereby saving you energy. Once the set 

point temperature has been reached, the fan will cycle 

off to save energy. The fan will cycle back on periodically 

to insure all cooling capacity in the system is used. This 

mode is the default mode for the unit. Each time the unit is 

powered off, it will restart in 

Energy Saver

 mode 

ON

. This 

includes 

Delay 

timer mode. The first time the unit is turned on, 

the settings will be 70° and 

Low

 fan. You can adjust the fan 

speed and temperature to your personal comfort.

Energy Saver ON

³

Helps minimize electricity use. It is 

normal for the fan to cycle off and then back on in this 

mode. This on/off cycle can repeat multiple times. Because 

the fan will cycle off, you may notice a variation in room 

temperature and humidity.

Energy Saver OFF

³

When this mode is not engaged, the fan 

will run continuously, and in 

Cool

 mode the compressor 

will cycle on and off to maintain room temperature.
