Set the temperature control 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 COOL, it will take approximately 3 minutes for the compressor to start and cooling to begin.
Cooling Descriptions
NOTE: If you switch from COOL or DRY mode setting to OFF, wait 3 minutes before restarting

•Press the MODE pad until the DRY indicator light is lit.
In the DRY mode, a set temperature will not be displayed. After DRY mode has been set, the display will change back to show the room temperature.
NOTE: If you switch from a DRY setting to OFF or to a fan setting, wait at least 3 minutes before switching back to a DRY setting. If using the unit in the DRY mode as a dehumidifier for an extended time.
Use the FAN mode to provide air circulation and filtering without cooling.
To set the FAN mode:
• Press the FAN pad until the desired indicator light for high, medium, or low fan speed is lit. Since fan only settings do not provide cooling, a set temperature will not be displayed. After FAN speed has been set, the display will change back to show the room temperature. The exhaust hose and window kit do not need to be installed when operating in fan mode.
Use the Heat mode at Low, Med, High or Auto Fan Speed for Heating. Use the Temperture Increase (+) / Decrease (-) pads to set the desired temperature between 64°F and 86°F in 1°F increments.
