For 

 operation

During the cooler 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 operating
at 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

 without 

or 

Turn Selector Switch to fan setting.

For ventilation

Whether controls are
set for cooling, heating
(on heat/cool models)
or fan only operation,
setting the 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

there long—especially in hot,
humid weather.

For fixed side-to-side air direction,
set the Circulaire Switch to ON until
the desired air direction is obtained,
then move it to OFF.
