ON/OFF Switch
- The ON/OFF switch is located on the
lower right hand edge of the Comfort Control Center. Move
the lever from side to side to change status. See FIG. B5.
General Information
The ability of the air conditioner to maintain the desired
inside temperature depends on the heat gain of the RV.
Some preventative measures taken by the occupants of
the RV can reduce heat gain and improve the performance
of the air conditioner. During extremely high outdoor tem-
peratures, the heat gain of the vehicle may be reduced by:
1. Parking the RV in a shaded area.
2. Using window shades (blinds and/or curtains).
3. Keeping windows and doors shut or minimizing usage.
4. Avoiding the use of heat producing appliances.
Starting the air conditioner early in the morning and giving
it a “head start” on the expected high outdoor ambient will
greatly improve its ability to maintain the desired indoor
temperature.
The manufacturer of this air conditioner will not be respon-
sible for damage caused by condensed moisture on ceil-
ings or other surfaces. Air contains moisture and this mois-
ture tends to condense on cold surfaces. When air enters
the RV, condensed moisture may appear on the ceiling,
windows, metal parts, etc. The air conditioner removes
this moisture from the air during normal operation. Keep-
ing doors and windows closed when the air conditioner is
in operation will minimize condensed moisture on cold sur-
faces.
This equipment must be serviced by qualified personnel
and some states require these people to be licensed.
Fan Only Mode of Operation -
See FIG. B4 & B5
1. Begin by placing the power switch on the lower right
hand edge of the Control Center in the
ON
position.
To do this, simply move the lever to the right.
2. Momentarily depress and release the
MODE
push-
button until the
FAN ONLY
indicator on the Liquid
Crystal Display (LCD) is illuminated.
3. Momentarily depress and release the
FAN
push-
button until the desired fan speed indicator (
LOW, MED,
HIGH, AUTO
) is illuminated. If your vehicle is equipped
with a heat pump or a dual basement air conditioning
system, your selection choice will be
LOW, HIGH
or
AUTO
.
4. After approximately 5 seconds, the selected fan speed
will come on. The
MODE
and
FAN
speed you have
selected will remain shown in the LCD area of the Con-
trol Center until you change your selection.
5. If the vehicle contains more than one
ZONE
, depress
the
FAN
and
MODE
push-buttons simultaneously to
select
ZONE 2
, and repeat procedures from step two
above. Repeat entire procedure for each additional
zone.
Cooling Mode Operation -
See FIG. B4 & B5
(To set cooling temperatures and fan speeds on Duo-Therm
Air Conditioners and the cooling mode of Duo-Therm Heat
Pumps.)
1. Momentarily depress and release the
MODE
push-button until the
COOL
indicator on the LCD is
illuminated.
2. Depress and release the
FAN
push-button to select
your desired fan speed.
3. Depress and release the
UP
push-button to increase
the temperature or the
DN
push-button to decrease
the desired temperature. The final selected
SETPOINT
will be displayed in the LCD area of the Comfort Con-
trol Center.
4. After a delay of approximately 2 minutes the air
conditioner’s compressor will come on and the cooling
process will begin. Once the room temperature
reaches the selected
SETPOINT
, the compressor will
cycle off. Once the Comfort Control Center senses the
need for cooling, the compressor will restart in approxi-
mately two minutes. At this point, the fan will either:
a. continue to operate in the single selected fan speed
or,
b. cycle
OFF
and
ON
with the compressor if the
AUTO
fan speed has been selected.
If the vehicle has a
dual basement air conditioner or
dual heat pump system
, the word
STAGE
(see stage
operation, page 20)
will be illuminated. Both of these
units operate in two different stages, and the word
STAGE
will show when the second stage operation has
been selected. To select the second stage, simulta-
neously depress the
FAN
and
MODE
push-buttons.
