OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
SWITCHING ON/OFF THE AIR CONDITIONER
The appliance can be switched ON or OFF by pressing the POWER button on the control panel or the ON/OFF button on the remote
control
COOLING MODE
In this mode, the air conditioner cools and dehumidifies the room. To activate this function mode, press the MODE
button until the COOL indicator light comes on. When the cooling mode is set, the compressor will start in approximately 3 minutes.
In cooling mode, hot air is exhausted from the outdoor exhaust port and the exhaust hose must be connected to exhaust out the
hot air. The temperature setting range of this air conditioner is from 61°F / 16°C to 89°F / 32°C. To set the temperature, press the +
or - buttons. This air conditioner has a 5°F temperature cushion which if the set temperature is within 5°F of the ambient
temperature, the unit runs on fan only mode. This saves energy and prolongs the life of the compressor of the air conditioner. To set
the fan speed, press the FAN button.
NOTE: In cooling mode, the difference in noise level between the fan speeds is not very noticeable when the compressor is on. Try
setting the unit to Fan only mode, you should be able to hear the difference between high and low fan speed settings.
DRY (DEHUMIDIFYING) ONLY MODE
In this mode, the air conditioner only dehumidifies the room, the compressor will activate intermittently depending on the ambient
temperature and the fan speed is set to LOW. To activate this function mode, press the MODE button until the DRY indicator light is
displayed. Please note that when switching function mode, there will be an approximately 3 minute transition time. In dehumidi-
fying mode, the exhaust hose does not need to be vented. If the exhaust hose is vented, the room will be cooled as it dehumidifies.
To prevent cooling, remove the exhaust hose from the window kit and allow the warm air from the rear to be recirculated into the
room. If room temperature is higher than 77°F, the fan speed can be adjusted. If room temperature is lower than 77°F, the fan
speed is set at Low.
NOTE: When using dehumidifying mode, venting the exhaust hose to the outside is not required. If vented, the warm air is exhaust-
ed to the outside and cooling within the room may occur. Additionally, if the exhaust hose is not vented, the unit may require more
frequent draining. Also, the air conditioner does not have a humidistat in which a specific humidity level can be set.
FAN ONLY MODE
In this mode, only the fan of the air conditioner runs and circulates the air in the room. To activate this function mode, press the
MODE button until the FAN indicator light comes on. In this function mode, the temperature cannot be set. Subsequently, set the
desired fan speed by pressing the FAN button. When using FAN only mode, venting the exhaust hose to the outside is optional.

enabled and disabled.

the desired time delay OFF hours by pressing the UP and DOWN buttons. The time increments are at 0.5 hour to up to 10 hours,
fol-lowed by 1 hour increment up to 24 hours. When the delay time set has elapsed, the air conditioner switches off. To cancel
