For Normal Cooling

1. Set Selector Switch at HIGH

COOL.

2. Set Thermostat Control at
desired number (usually the midpoint

is a good starting position). If room

temperature is not satisfactory after
a reasonable time, set the temperature
control at a higher number for a
cooler room or at a lower number

for a warmer room.

For Maximum Cooling

1. Set Selector Switch at HIGH

COOL.

2. Set Thermostat Control at 10.

3. 

Set Ventilation Control at

CLOSE position.

4. Shift Energy Saver Switch to
NORMAL.

For Quieter Operation

 Set Selector Switch at LOW

COOL.

2. Set Thermostat Control at
desired number.

3. 

Set Ventilation Control at

CLOSE position.

4. Shift Energy Saver Switch to
desired position—SAVE or

NORMAL.

For Nighttime Operation

During the 

 evening hours,

it is recommended that you set the
Selector Switch at LOW COOL for
very quiet operation and the
Thermostat Control at mid-range
(5 or 6).

When the Thermostat Control is set
on 9 or 10 and the Fan is set on low
speed, moisture may freeze on the
coils and prevent the unit from
cooling. If this happens, set the

Fan at high speed and set the

Thermostat Control to a lower
number.

For Extreme Temperatures

For greatest economy and best
performance, we suggest you
always set the Selector Switch at
HIGH COOL in extremely hot
weather.

For air circulation and
filtering without cooling

Set Selector Switch at FAN ONLY.

For fan only 

 the 

Saver Switch must be in the
NORMAL position.

For Ventilation

Whether controls are set for cooling
or 

 

 operation, setting

Ventilation Control at OPEN lets
room air be exhausted to the
outside. This is helpful in removing
stale air, smoke or odors from the

room, and permits outdoor air to

enter through normal openings in the
house. However, cooling effectiveness

is reduced when this control is set

at OPEN, so we suggest you don’t
keep it there long—especially in
hot, humid weather.
