Cool Mode
Use the COOL mode for cooling.
To set the COOL mode:
1. Press the
MODE pad until the COOL indicator light is lit.
2. Press the FAN pad to set HIGH or LOW fan speed.
3. Press + or - to set the desired temperature between
61°F and 89°F in 1°F increments.
After settings have been made, the display will change
back to show the room temperature.
The temperature control 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
temperature control at a lower number and the indoor
air will become cooler. Set the temperature control 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 COOL, it will take approximately 3 minutes
for the compressor to start and cooling to begin.
Cooling Descriptions

HIGH or LOW fan speed with a middle set temperature.

NOTE: If you switch from COOL or DEHUM mode
setting to OFF, wait 3 minutes before restarting.
DEHUM Mode—Dehumidification
Use the DEHUM mode to provide dehumidification only.
The fan will run at a fixed speed at this setting, so a fan
speed cannot be set. Keep windows and doors closed
for the best dehumidifying effects.
To set the DEHUM mode:
•Press the MODE pad until the DEHUM indicator light is lit.
In the DEHUM mode, a set temperature will not be
displayed. After DEHUM mode has been set, the display
will change back to show the room temperature.
NOTE: If you switch from a DEHUM setting to OFF or
to a fan setting, wait at least 3 minutes before switching
back to a DEHUM setting.
If using the unit in the DEHUM mode as a dehumidifier
for an extended time.
1 . Unplug the power cord.
2. Connect a drain hose (not included) to the bottom
drain port (see page 10, lower drain #8) and lead
hose to floor drain.
3. Reconnect the power cord and press the MODE pad
until the DEHUM indicator light is lit.
FAN Mode
Use the FAN mode to provide air circulation and filtering
without cooling.
To set the FAN mode:
• Press the FAN pad until the desired indicator light for
HIGH or LOW fan speed is lit.
Since fan only settings do not provide cooling, a set
temperature will not be displayed. After FAN speed has
been set, the display will change back to show the room
temperature.
Power Outage Recovery Feature
In the case of a power outage or interruption, the unit will
automatically re-start in the settings last used after the
power is restored. NOTE: If the TIMER was set before the power outage, it
will need to be reset after power is restored.
The display will always default to show the room temperature.
When the air conditioner is turned on, it will automatically start in the last mode and fan settings selected.
ECO Mode

To set ECO Mode :
1. Press the MODE pad until the ECO indicator light is lit.
2. Press FAN pad to set high or low fan speede.
3. Press + or - to set desired temperature between 61°F
and 89°F in 1°F increments.
In ECO mode, the fan will cycle off with the compressor
when room temperature is reached. Then thefan will
cycle 10 minutes off / 2 minutes on to sample the room
temperature.
