If you operate any of the buttons on the

You can then manually control the system
as desired using the button you operated.

Temperature control dial
This dial is used to set the desired interior
temperature. The set temperature is
shown by the display. With the dial set at
your desired temperature, the system au-
tomatically adjusts the temperature of air
supplied from the outlets such that the de-
sired temperature is achieved and main-
tained.
If the dial is turned fully counterclockwise,
the system gives maximum cooling perfor-
mance. If the dial is turned fully clockwise,
the system gives maximum heating per-
formance.
