Dry Mode Operation (Dehumidification)
Procedure
1. Use the provided wireless remote control and press
the
MODE
button and select
DRY
mode.
2. Press the
UP/ DOWN
button to select the desired
temperature. The temperature setting range is from
62°F (17°C) to 86°F (30°C) in one degree increments.
NOTE:
The blower is preset at a low speed and cannot be
changed therefore it will get cold and most likely
will over shoot the temperature setting by 6-10
°
F
(3-5
°
C) depending on the room size or other
various factors. Also the
Follow Me
mode does
not operate in this mode.
NOTE:
In addition, the indoor units do not have a humidistat
installed therefore they are unable to determine
humidity levels. This product is not recommend as
a main source for dehumidification.
Sequence of Operation
When in dry mode operation the unit is actually in cooling
mode with a low speed blower operation. Set remote temp
to a lower room temp to begin the dry mode operation.
The compressor will stop when the room temperature is
4°F (2°C) lower than the temperature setting.
However there is a temperature compensation for cooling
mode that is 4°F (2°C). So the unit will stop when the
temperature is 8°F (4°C) lower than the room temperature
settings.
User Guide
Default Settings
When the system restarts after a power failure, it will
default to the factory settings - AUTO mode, AUTO fan,
24°C (76°F). This may cause inconsistencies on the
remote control and unit panel. Use your remote control to
update the status.
Auto-Restart
In case of power failure, the system will immediately stop.
When power returns, the Operation light on the indoor unit
will flash. To restart the unit, press the ON/OFF button
on the remote control. If the system has an auto restart
function, the unit will restart using the same settings.
Louver Angle Memory Function
Some models are designed with a louver angle memory
function. When the unit restarts after a power failure, the
angle of the horizontal louvers will automatically return to
the previous position.
The angle of the horizontal louver should not be set too
small as condensation may form and drip into the machine.
To reset the louver, press the manual button, which will
reset the horizontal louver settings.
The louvers can be in automatic swing function and will
swing with in a preset open and close in both heat and
cooling. If you chose to position the louvers in one place.
