1. 

Mode Button 

- The Mode button indicates the currently active mode of operation.  Press 

and release to step through the four available operating modes:  COOL, HEAT, AUTO, 
and MOISTURE.  See section 8.2 for more information on all the modes of operation. 

2. 

Fan Speed Mode Indicator

 

– This label indicates the current fan speed mode, AUTO or 

MANUAL.  See section 8.3 for more information on the fan speed mode. 

3. 

Fan Speed Indicator

 

– This indicator is a bar graph that shows the speed at which the 

fan is currently operating.  There are 3 fan speeds with EasyTouch:  1 bar lit indicates low 
speed, 4 bars lit indicate medium speed, and 7 bars lit indicate high speed. 

4. 

Fan Button

 

– The Fan button is used to control the fan speed.  The Fan button will rotate 

when the fan is on, and will be stationary when the fan is off.  See section 8.3 for more 
information on the controlling the fan speed. 

5. 

Menu Button 

– The Menu button allows access to the EasyTouch Main Menu and all 

sub-menus beyond.  See section 10 for more information on the menus. 

6. 

Up Button 

- Press and release to display the set point. Press and release or press and 

hold the UP button to increase the set point. 

7. 

Temperature Display Selection

 

– Indicates the current temperature display value:  SET, 

INSIDE, OUTSIDE, SERVICE/WATER, or %RH.  If the associated temperature sensor is 
not installed or is faulty, 

“- - -” will be displayed. 

8. 

Temperature Display Indicator 

– This value indicates the current temperature reading 

that corresponds to the Temperature Display Selection explained above.  Press and 
release over the top of the numeric value to select the various temperature displays:  Set 
point(s), Inside, Outside, Service/Water temperatures, or Relative Humidity (if equipped).  
By default, the temperature display will always revert back to showing the Inside 
Temperature after 3 seconds.  If you wish to change the default Temperature Display to 
one of the other available choices, immediately after selecting the desired temperature, 
press and hold again for 5 seconds (until the button highlight disappears) and the 
currently displayed temperature will be retained and reverted back to. 

9.
