Cool Mode
Use the Cool mode at Low, Med, High or Auto Fan
Speed for cooling. Use the Temperature Increase Ÿ
/ Decrease ź pads to set the desired temperature
between 64°F and 86°F in 1°F increments.
An electronic thermostat is used to maintain the room
temperature. The compressor will cycle on
and off to keep the room at the set level of comfort.
Set the thermostat at a lower number and the indoor
air will become cooler. Set the thermostat at a higher
number and the indoor air will become warmer.
NOTE: If the air conditioner is off and is then turned on
while set to a Cool setting or if turned from a fan
setting to a Cool setting, it may take approximately
3 minutes for the compressor to start and cooling to
begin.

Fan Only Mode
Use the Fan Only Mode at Low, Med or High fan
speed to provide air circulation and filtering without
cooling. Since fan-only settings do not provide
cooling, a Set temperature cannot be entered. The
room temperature will appear in the display.
NOTE: Auto Fan Speed cannot be used when in the
Fan Only Mode.
Energy Saver Mode
In the case of a power outage or interruption, the
unit will automatically restart in the settings last
used after the power is restored. If the Delay 1–24hr feature was set, it will resume countdown. You may
need to set a new time if desired.
Power Outage Recovery Feature
Set to Auto fan speed for the fan speed to
automatically set to the speed needed to provide
optimum comfort settings with the set temperature.
If the room needs more cooling, the fan speed will automatically increase. If the room needs less
cooling, the fan speed will automatically decrease.
NOTE: Auto Fan Speed cannot be used when in the
Fan Only Mode.

Remote Control
This mode optimizes the cooling power of your air
conditioner, thereby saving you energy. Once the
set point temperature has been reached, the fan
will cycle off to save energy. The fan will cycle back
on periodically to insure all cooling capacity in the
system is used. This mode is the default mode for the
unit. Each time the unit is powered off, it will restart
in Energy Saver mode ON. This includes Delay timer
mode. The first time the unit is turned on, the settings
will be 70° and Low fan. You can adjust the fan
speed and temperature to your personal comfort.
Energy Saver ON³Helps minimize electricity use.
It is normal for the fan to cycle off and then back
on in this mode. This on/off cycle can repeat
multiple times. Because the fan will cycle off, you
may notice a variation in room temperature and
humidity.
Energy Saver OFF³When this mode is not engaged,
the fan will run continuously, and in Cool mode the
compressor will cycle on and off to maintain room
temperature.
