FAN 2 MINIMUM SPEED

When the room temperature is at the Fan 2
relative set point, Fan 2 runs at minimum speed
set by this function. This value is entered as a
percentage of maximum speed. The Fan 2
minimum speed is adjusted in 2% increments
from a minimum setting of 12% to a maximum
setting of 100%.

Adjusting the minimum speed of Fan 2:

•

rotate the Selector dial to position (5),

•

rotate the Adjustor dial counterclockwise to
decrease fan speed, clockwise to increase
it.

The minimum fan speed is displayed on the
front panel.
