THERMOSTAT

Thermostat Control

When you move the Thermostat
Control to the desired setting, the
thermostat will automatically
control the temperature of the
indoor air. The higher the number

selected, the cooler the indoor air
will become.

OF THE DISCHARGE GRILLE)

Ventilation Control

When you move the Ventilation
Control to CLOSE, the vent door

is closed and 

 the air inside the

room will be circulated and
conditioned. Moving the control to
OPEN opens the vent door,
allowing a small amount of indoor
air to be exhausted from the room.

However, cooling effectiveness is
reduced when this control is set at
OPEN, so we suggest you don’t
keep it there long+ specially in
hot. humid weather.
