You can control the temperature in each mode as follows:

Mode Temperature control
Auto/Cool/Dry	Adjust by 1 °C between 20 °C and 28 °C.
Fan	You cannot control the temperature.
Heat	Adjust by 1 °C between 20 °C and 28 °C.

You can select the following fan speeds in each mode:

Mode Available fan speeds
Auto/Dry	(Auto)
Cool/Heat	(Auto), (low), (Med), (High)
Fan	(Low), (Med), (High)

Controlling air flow direction

You can change air flow direction to either vertical or horizontal.

In operation

NOTE

• To lock a specific air flow direction, press either the ➕ or ⏻ button when the air flow blades are in the intended position.
• Duct-type indoor units do not come with a vertical air flow direction.
• If you press 📊nbutton on a 360-cassette indoor unit, the indicator display changes as follows.

Press count	Controlling air flow direction	Indicator

6 Wide

※ The indication may vary depending on the previously used mode.

- The individual air flow direction control function, which is available on the 360 cassettes only, can be operated with a 360-cassette wireless remote control (AR-KH00R) only.

Cooling Operation

The smart and powerful cooling functions of the Samsung air conditioner keep an enclosed space cool and comfortable.

Cool mode

Use the Cool mode to stay cool in hot weather.

NOTE

• For comfort, keep the temperature difference between the indoor and outdoor air within 5 °C in the Cool mode.
• To cool your room quickly, select a low temperature and a high fan speed.
  • To save energy, select a high temperature and a low fan speed.
• As the indoor temperature approaches the set temperature, the compressor will operate at a low speed to save energy.

WindFree Cooling function

Use the WindFree Cooling function to enjoy mild cool breeze exuding from fine holes on the WindFree panel with the air flow blade closed, instead of getting cool wind directly. The automated control of the temperature and fan speed according to the indoor temperatures keeps your room cool and pleasant.

In the Cool, Dry, or Fan mode

NOTE

• To cancel this function, press the 📄 button again.
• If the WindFree Cooling function is cancelled, the air conditioner returns to the original fan speed.
• You can adjust the set temperature during the WindFree Cooling function, and recommended set temperatures are 24 to 26 °C. However, you cannot change the set temperature in the Fan mode.
• You can use the WindFree Cooling function when the Cool, Dry, or Fan mode is running.
• If the room temperature goes high because of rise of external temperature, heat from cooking, or other reason, operate the WindFree Cooling function after operating in the Cool mode.
• If you select the WindFree Cooling function in the Fan mode, the compressor stops working so that cool air does not come out. However, mild breeze comes out and starts to clean the air in the room.

- During the WindFree Cooling operation, the cold air may be intermittently weakened depending on the temperature and humidity in the room. But the WindFree air currents are maintained and the weakened cold air is immediately recovered, consequently keeping the room comfortable. (During the WindFree Cooling operation, the air flow blades may open to control the indoor air currents smoothly, depending on the installation settings. In this case, as soon as the indoor temperature and humidity change, the air flow blades are closed and the WindFree Cooling operation restarts. For more information on the installation settings, see "Setting the indoor unit addresses and the installation options" in the installation manual of the indoor unit.)

Change of the air flow blade by temperature and humidity
Indoor temperature and humidity	Low	High
	Breeze is blown via the micro holes on the air flow blades	Breeze is blown via the micro holes on the air flow blades	Breeze comes from the air flow blade depending on the setting
Air flow blade	Closed	Closed (default)	Opened (according to setting)

• When the WindFree Cooling function runs while sleeping, you may feel cold air if the air conditioner is installed over the bed. In this case, set the desired temperature higher than the normal setting temperature.
• If you select the WindFree Cooling function while such functions as Turbo, Quiet, Long reach, an Air flow direction (,) or 'good'sleep' are running, these functions are cancelled.

Dehumidifying Operation

The dehumidifying function of the Samsung air conditioner keeps an enclosed space dry and comfortable.

Dry mode

Use the Dry mode in rainy or humid weather.

NOTE

• You cannot change fan speed in the Dry mode.
• The greater the difference between the set temperature and the current temperature is, the greater the amount of air that is dehumidified is.

Air Purifying Operation

The air purification function of the Samsung air conditioner keeps the air in an enclosed space purified.

S-Plasma Ion function

Use the S-Plasma Ion function to purify your room with positive ions produced by the air conditioner. This function is available in the Auto, Cool, Dry, Fan, and Heat modes.

• When the S-Plasma Ion function is additionally selected while a specific mode is running, there is little difference in electricity consumption and operating noise.

The heating functions of the Samsung air conditioner keep an enclosed space warm and comfortable.

Heat mode

Use the Heat mode to stay warm.

NOTE

• While the air conditioner warms up, the fan may not operate for a while at the beginning to prevent cold wind.
• While the defrost function is running, the indoor unit provides no breeze to prevent cold wind.
• If the outdoor temperature is low and the humidity is high while the Heat mode is running, the heating performance of the air conditioner may decrease due to frost and ice that formed on the outdoor heat exchanger. When this condition happens, the air conditioner runs the defrost function for about 5 to 12 minutes to remove the frost and ice, and water steam is released from the outdoor unit.
• The operation time of the defrost function varies depending on the amount of the frost and ice and the humidity.
• While the defrost function is running, none of other functions will work, even if you select them on the remote control.

NOTE

• You cannot change the fan speed.
