USING THE AIR CONDITIONER
To Adjust Fan Speeds
Press the Fan Speed button to select the FAN Speed
in four steps - Auto, Low, Med, or High. Each time the
button is pressed, the fan speed mode is shifted.
For some models, the fan speed can not be adjusted
under HEAT mode. In DRY mode, the fan speed is
controlled at low automatically.
Sleep
Press the Sleep button to initiate the sleep mode. In this
mode the selected temperature will increase (cooling)
or decrease (heating) by 2°F / 1°C 30 minutes after the
mode is selected. The temperature will then increase
(cooling) or decrease (heating) by another 2°F / 1°C after
an additional 30 minutes.
This new temperature will be maintained for 7 hours
before it returns to the originally selected temperature.
This ends the Sleep mode and the unit will continue
to operate as originally programmed. The Sleep mode
program can be cancelled at any time during operation
by pressing the Sleep button again.
Check Filter
Press the Filter button to initiate this feature. This feature
is a reminder to clean the air filter for more efficient
operation.
The LED (light) will illuminate after 250 hours of
operation. To reset after cleaning the filter, press the Filter
button and the light will go off.
Eco - Energy Saver
Press the Eco button to initiate this feature. This feature
is available on COOL, DRY, AUTO, (only AUTO-COOLING
and AUTO-FAN) modes. The fan will continue to run for 3
minutes after the compressor shuts off.
The fan then cycles on for 2 minutes at 10 minute
intervals until the room temperature is above the set
temperature, at which time the compressor turns back on
and Cooling starts.

When the unit is on or off, first press the Timer button,
the TIMER ON indicator light illuminates. It indicates the
Auto Start program is initiated.

When the time of TIMER ON is displayed, press the
Timer button again, the TIMER OFF indicator light
illuminates. It indicates the Auto Stop program is initiated.

Press or hold the UP or DOWN button to change the
Auto time by 0.5 hour increments, up to 10 hours, then
at 1 hour increments up to 24 hours. The control will
count down the time remaining until start.

The selected time will register in 5 seconds, and the
system will automatically revert back to display the
previous temperature setting or room temperature when
the unit is on. (When the unit is off, there is no display.)

Turning the unit ON or OFF at any time or adjusting the
timer setting to 0.0 will cancel the Auto Start/Stop timed
program.
To Select the Operating Mode
To choose operating mode, press the Mode button.
Each time you press the button, a mode is selected in a
sequence that goes from Auto, Cool, Dry, Heat (on some
models) and Fan only. The indicator light above will be
illuminated and remain on once the mode is selected.
The unit will initiate the Energy Saver function under
Cool, Dry, Auto (only Auto-Cooling and Auto-Fan) modes.
To Operate on Auto Feature:
■
When you set the air conditioner in AUTO mode, it will
automatically select cooling, heating (on some models)
or fan only operation depending on what temperature
you have selected and the room temperature.
■
The air conditioner will control room temperature
automatically to the temperature set point.
■
In this mode, the fan speed cannot be adjusted, it starts
automatically at a speed according to the room temperature.
To Operate on Fan Only:
■
Use this function only when cooling is not desired. You
can choose any fan speed you prefer.
■
During this function, the display will show the actual
room temperature, not the set temperature in the
cooling mode.
■
In Fan only mode, the temperature is not adjustable.
To Operate on Dry Mode:
■
In this mode, the air conditioner will generally operate in
the form of a dehumidifier. Since the conditioned space
is a closed or sealed area, some degree of cooling will
continue.
