Remote Control Operating

Instructions

1. Sending Signal: When the main unit is turned on

(I/O button), this symbol (1A) will appear in the
remote LCD window. The remote must be aimed
directly at the control panel on the main unit when
initiating commands. When a remote control
button is depressed (excluding L, R, Clock, &
set˚C/˚F), the following symbol “ ” flashes once
in the remote LCD window. This symbol confirms
that a signal was dispatched from the remote and a
“Beep” from the main unit confirms the signal was
received. The main unit will then recognize and
respond accordingly to the selection made. All
selections (excluding time of day settings) will
appear immediately in the remote LCD window and
main unit LCD window when the unit becomes
operational. There may be a slight delay (2-5
seconds) before the main unit responds to the
remote signal. This is normal. If the main unit
does not respond, try the procedure again. If the
main unit again fails to respond;

Check the following:
• Are the receiver and the remote unit within the

required 7 meter (23 ft.) operating distance?

• Is the receiver window on the main unit partially

blocked and/or obscured?

• Are the batteries correctly installed inside the

remote (positive+ / negative-)?

• Check the batteries. If low, replace.

2. Setting/Adjusting Time of Day Clock

(Remote Control): When the batteries are
installed, the clock displays “0:00” and the colons
(:) flash. Push the “Temp/Timer"

buttons to

adjust the current time of day (0-24hrs). Each
depression of the button will increase or decrease
the time of day setting (1 min. increments). When
the correct time of day has been established, push
the "Set" button to activate the time of day clock
setting (colons stop flashing). To change the time
of day clock setting, push and hold the "clock"
button (3 seconds) until the colons (:) flash. Adjust
the time of day clock setting (time adjust buttons)
then push the "Set" button to activate time of day
clock setting (colons (:) stop flashing).

NOTE: The time of day clock setting on the
remote control unit operates independently and
does not control the time of day clock setting on
the main unit.

3. Mode Setting: Press the “Mode” button to select

the desired operating mode. Each depression of
the button will advance to a different setting

(Auto–Cool–Dry–Heat–Fan). NOTE: The “Auto”
mode is a built in feature, activated from the hand
held remote unit only. (Auto mode cannot be
programmed from the main unit control panel)
Under the “Auto” mode, the unit will automatically
select the operating mode, based on temperature
selection. The main unit will respond automatically,
switching appropriately between the “Auto-cool-
heat-fan” mode to maintain the program
temperature selected. Dehumidifying does not
respond/operate under the “Auto” mode function.

4. Temperature Setting: Press the remote

buttons to select the desired
operating temperature. Each
depression of the temperature
button will increase/decrease

the temperature settings (1°C increments, 2°F
increments). The temperature selected will be
displayed in the remote LCD window. Remote
temperature ranges 17˚C-30˚C

5. Fan Speed Setting: Press the remote “Fan”

button to select the desired operating fan speed.
Depending on the mode selection, each
depression of the fan button will advance to a
different fan speed (Auto–Low–Medium –High) The
fan speed selected will be displayed in the remote
LCD window. i.e.
