pressed, the fan speed mode is shifted. On “Dry” 

mode the fan speed is set at low automatically. 

For some models with heating capabilities, the

an additional 30 minutes. This new temperature 

will be maintained for 6 hours before it returns to the 

originally selected temperature. This ends the Sleep 

mode and the unit will continue to operate as 

originally programmed. The Sleep mode program 

can be cancelled at any time during operation by  

pressing the “Sleep” button again.

Press      Energy Saver button to initiate this 

function. This function is available on “Cool,” “Dry,” 

and “Auto” (only Auto-Cooling and Auto-Fan) 

modes. In this mode, the fan will continue to run for 

3 minutes after the compressor shuts off.The fan  

then cycles on for 2 minutes, at 10 minute intervals, 

until the room temperature is above the set 

temperature, at which time the compressor turns 

back on and cooling starts.

To activate the Follow Me feature, point the remote 

control towards the unit and press the “Follow Me” 

button. The remote displays the actual temperature at 

its location. The remote control will send this signal to 

the air conditioner every 3 minutes until the Follow Me 

button is pressed again.  If the unit does not receive the

Follow Me signal during any 7 minute interval, the unit 

will beep to indicate the Follow Me mode has ended.

The actual temperature can be displayed at the unit by

pressing the “Fan” only mode. When in the “Cool” 

mode, the unit display indicates the set temperature.    

This feature can ONLY be activated 

from the remote control. The 

remote control serves as a remote 

thermostat allowing for precise 

temperature control at its location.

To choose operating mode, press the        Mode button. 

Each time you press the button, a mode is selected in

a sequence that goes from “Auto,” “Cool,” “Dry,” “Heat,”

(for units with heating function) and “Fan.” The 

indicator light will be illuminated and remain on once 

the mode is selected. 

The unit will automatically 

initiate the Energy Saver function under “Cool,” 

“Dry,” and “Auto” (only Auto-Cooling and Auto-

Fan) modes.

To operate on “Auto” feature:

 

To operate on “Fan” only: 

Use this function only when cooling is not desired, 

such as for room air circulation or to exhaust stale

air. (Remember to open the vent during this function, 

but keep it closed during cooling for maximum cooling 

efficiency.) You can choose any fan speed you prefer.

During this function, the display will show the actual

room temperature, not the set temperature as in the

cooling mode.

To operate on “Dry” mode:

In this mode, the air conditioner will reduce air 

humidity. If the space is a closed or sealed area, some 

degree of cooling will continue.

When you set the air conditioner in AUTO mode, it will 

automatically select cooling, heating (on models with 

heating capabilities), or fan only operation depending on 

what temperature you have selected and the room 

temperature.The air conditioner will control room 

temperature automatically around the temperature you set.

In this mode, the fan speed cannot be adjusted.

 

It starts automatically at a speed according to the 

room temperature. 

When the unit is on or off, first press       Timer button. 

The TIMER ON indicator light illuminates. It indicates the 

Auto Start program is initiated.

When the time of TIMER ON is displayed, if you pres the 

Timer button again, the TIMER OFF indicator light 

illuminates. It indicates the Auto Stop program is initiated.

Press or hold the UP or DOWN button to change the Auto 

time by 0.5 hour increments, up to 10 hours, then by 1 

hour increments, up to 24 hours. The control will count 

down the time remaining until start.

The selected time will register in 5 seconds and the 

system will automatically revert back to display the 

previous temperature setting or the room temperature 

(depending on whether the unit is powered on or off and 

the mode it is in).

Turning the unit ON or OFF at any time or adjusting the 

timer setting to 0.0 will cancel the Auto Start/Stop 

program.
