AIR CONDITIONER USE
Operating your air conditioner properly helps you to obtain the
best possible results.
This section explains proper air conditioner operation.
IMPORTANT:
■
If you turn off the air conditioner, wait at least 3 minutes
before turning it back on. This prevents the air conditioner
from blowing a fuse or tripping a circuit breaker.
■
Do not try to operate your air conditioner in the cooling mode
when outside temperature is below 65°F (18°C). The inside
evaporator coil will freeze up, and the air conditioner will not
operate properly.
NOTE: In the event of a power failure, your air conditioner will
operate at the previous settings when the power is restored.

■
When the air conditioner is off, the Room indicator light is lit
and the display shows the current room temperature.
■
If the room temperature is below 55ºF (13ºC), the display will
show 55ºF (13ºC). If the room temperature is above 99ºF
(37ºC), the display will show 99ºF (37ºC).
■
When the Set indicator light is lit, the display shows the

after it is plugged in, it will display the default settings: Cool

■
Auto—Cools room while it automatically controls fan

■
Cool—Cools room. You can adjust temperature by
pressing the plus or minus button. You can select fan

Temperature control setting. Display shows the current

Because the fan does not circulate the room air
continuously, less energy is used, but the room air is not
circulated as often. Use Power Saver when you are
asleep or away from home.

Only or Power Saver mode has been selected.

replacing the air filter. This resets the Filter Monitor.

light will turn on. It will remain on for 180 hours or until you press
FILTER. After 180 hours, it will flash. It will continue flashing until
you press FILTER.
