1

Power

Press to turn the air conditioner ON or 

OFF.

Energy Saver (Ahorro Energía) 

- In this mode 

the compressor and fan turn off when the set 

temperature is achieved. Approximately every 

3 minutes the fan turns on to allow the unit 

sensor to accurately determine if more cooling 

is needed.

Cool (Frío)

 - This mode is ideal on hot days to 

cool and dehumidify the room quickly. Use the 

Temp

 

 buttons to set the desired room 

temperature and use the 

Fan Speed (Nivel 

Vent.) 

button to set the desired fan circulation 

speed.

Fan (Vent.)

 - In this mode the fan circulates air 

but the compressor does not run. Use the

 Fan 

Speed (Nivel Vent.) 

button to set fan speed to 

High, Medium or Low. In this mode, you cannot 

adjust the set temperature.

Dry (Deshum)

 - This mode is ideal for rainy 

and damp days to dehumidify the room 

rather than cooling it significantly. Humidity is 

removed from the room by the combination of 

compressor operation and the fan speed fixed 

at Low. The compressor and fan turn off once 

the set temperature is reached. Fan speed 

cannot be adjusted in Dry (Deshum) mode.

2

Fan Speed

Press to set the Fan Speed (Nivel Vent.) to 

Low (Bajo) (F1), Medium (Medio) (F2) or 

High (Alto) (F3).

Delay ON/OFF Timer

Delay ON

 - When the air conditioner is off, 

set it to automatically turn on from 1 to 24 

hours later, at its previous mode and fan 

settings.

Delay OFF

 - When the air conditioner is 

on, set it to automatically turn off from 1 to 

24 hours later.

NOTE

 

Each press of the 

Timer (Control 

Tiempo) 

button advances the timer by 

1 hour. After the last press the display 

returns to the temperature setting.

Operation Mode

Press the Mode (Modo) button to cycle 

between 4 types of air conditioner 

operation: Energy Saver (Ahorro Energía) /
