AIR CONDITIONER (OPTION)

Use the 2

way Air conditioner switch to operate /

adjust the air conditioner.

Because the air conditioner is electrically
powered, it draws additional energy from the

reduced when the air conditioner is operating.

The MD3 machine management system
automatically shuts off the air conditioning to
conserve energy when the battery packs are close
to needing to be recharged.
