HOW TO CONNECT ELECTRICITY

Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord. For personal safety, this appliance must be properly grounded.

DO NOT use an adapter plug with this appliance.

The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a 3-prong (grounding) plug which mates with a standard 3-prong (grounding) wall outlet to minimize the possibility of electric shock hazard from this appliance.

Power cord includes a current interrupter device. A test and reset button is provided on the plug case. The device should be tested on a periodic basis by first pressing the TEST button and then the RESET button while plugged into the outlet. If the TEST button does not trip or if the RESET button will not stay engaged, discontinue use of the air conditioner and contact a qualified service technician.

Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the outlet is properly grounded.

Where a 2-prong wall outlet is encountered, it is your personal responsibility and obligation to have it replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet.

The air conditioner should always be plugged into its own individual electrical outlet which has a voltage rating that matches the rating plate.

This provides the best performance and also prevents overloading house wiring circuits which could cause a fire hazard from overheated wires.

Using the Air Conditioner - Features

To Adjust Fan Speeds

Press FAN SPEED to select the FAN SPEED in four steps - AUTO, LOW, MED, or HIGH. Each time the FAN SPEED is pressed, the fan speed mode is shifted.

For some models, the fan speed can not be adjusted under HEAT mode. In DRY mode, the fan speed is controlled at low automatically.

In AUTO, the fan speed will automatically operate at the speed needed to provide optimum comfort. If the room needs faster cooling to meet the set temperature, the fan will automatically increase. If the room needs less cooling, the fan will automatically decrease.

SLEEP

Press the Sleep button to initiate the sleep mode. In this mode, the selected temperature will increase (cooling) or decrease (heating) by 2^ F / 1^ C 30 minutes after the mode is selected.

The temperature will then increase (cooling) or decrease (heating) by another 2^ F / 1^ C after an additional 30 minutes.

This new temperature will be maintained for 7 hours before it returns to the originally selected temperature. This ends the Sleep mode and the unit will continue to operate as originally programmed. The Sleep mode program can be cancelled at any time during operation by pressing the Sleep button again.

Check Filter

Press FILTER to initiate this feature. This feature is a reminder to clean the air filter for more efficient operation.

The LED (light) will illuminate after 250 hours of operation. To reset after cleaning the filter, press FILTER and the light will go off.

To Select the Operating Mode

To choose operating mode, press MODE. Each time you press MODE, a new mode is selected in a sequence that goes from HEAT (on some models), COOL, FAN, ECO, and DRY only. The indicator light will be illuminated and remain on once the mode is selected.

To operate in FAN only Mode:

■ Use this function only when cooling or heating (on some models) is not desired. You can choose any fan speed you prefer.
■ During this function, the display will show the actual room temperature, not the set temperature in the cooling or heating (on some models) mode.
■ In FAN only mode, the temperature is not adjustable.

To operate in ECO Mode:

■ With this feature, the unit will operate in COOL mode only. The fan will operate with the compressor to cool the space. The fan will continue to run for 3 minutes after the compressor stops and the room set temperature has been met. The fan then cycles on for 2 minutes at 10 minute intervals until the room temperature is above the set point, at which time the compressor turns on and cooling starts.

To operate in DRY Mode:

In this mode, the air conditioner will generally operate in the form of a dehumidifer. Since the conditioned space is a closed or sealed area, some degree of cooling will occur. In DRY mode, the fan operates in LOW fan speed only.

To change the temperature display between Fahrenheit to Celsius, press - and + together and hold for 3 seconds.

Control Panel Lights

This unit has a feature that turns the control panel lights on or off when there is no activity for more than 1 minute. To wake up the lights, press any pad on the controls and the lights will come on to show the previous settings. To turn this feature off, press and hold SLEEP for 3

seconds. The unit will beep to signal a successful toggle off of this feature.

Pressing DISPLAY on the wireless remote will turn the control panel lights off immediately.

Control Panel Sound

To disable the audible beep when buttons are pressed, press FILTER for 3 seconds. To enable the beeping you can re-press FILTER for 3 seconds.

Using the Air Conditioner - Features

Additional Features

The “Cool” circuit has an automatic 3 minute delayed start if the unit is turned off and on quickly. This prevents overheating of the compressor and possible circuit breaker tripping. The fan will continue to run during this time.

There is a 2 second delay for the compressor to stop when selecting fan or heat. This is to cover the possibility of

having to roll through to select another mode.

The control will maintain the set temperature within 1^ F between 62^ F and 86^ F in cool or heat mode (on some models).

After a power outage, the unit will remember last setting and return the unit to that setting when power is restored.

Air Direction

Adjustable louvers control air flow direction.

The louvers will allow you to direct the air flow up or down and left or right throughout the room as needed until the desired left/right direction is obtained. Pivot horizontal louvers until the desired up/down direction is obtained.
