Press POWER to turn the air conditoner on or off.
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.
■ The recommended operating temperature range is between 44°F (7°C) and 95°F (35°C). Operating the air conditioner above or below this range may cause the the inside evaporator coil to 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.
During normal operation, display will show the current room temperature and the mode and settings. When the UP or DOWN button is pressed, the unit will display the set temperature or delay time.
The Mode button has three settings:
■ Cool
■ Dehumidify
■ Fan
Press the MODE button until the indicator light below the desired setting is lit.
Cooling (COOL) Mode
During Cooling mode, the air conditioner cools air from the room and vents hot air to the outdoors through the vent hose(s). Adjust fan speed and the temperature setting to fit your desired comfort level. Temperature setting range is 60° F–86°F (16°C–30°C).
IMPORTANT: The vent hose(s) must exhaust to the outdoors when using Cooling mode.
Dehumidify (Dry) Mode
Air is dehumidified as it passes through the unit, without being in full cooling mode. The fan speed is set automatically to LOW and cannot be adjusted .
IMPORTANT: For best results, the continuous drain hose should be connected.
Fan (FAN) Mode
In this mode, only the fan will run. Air is circulated through the room with no cooling.
NOTE: The air conditioner does not need to be vented to the outdoors in Fan mode.
The Fan has 3 speed settings:
■ Low
■ Medium
■ High
Press the FAN button until the desired setting is selected.
Press the UP or DOWN buttons to adjust the set temperature up or down in 1° increments. Temperature setting range is 60°F–86°F (16°C–30°C). After 10 seconds, the display will return to the current room temperature.

Bucket Full Warning “FL”
This air conditioner has an internal tank to hold accumulated water from the condenser. Normally, this water is evaporated and exhausted to the outside. However, in periods of high humidity, the internal tank may become full. If this happens, “FL” will appear in the display, a tone will sound, and the air conditioner will turn off until the internal tank is emptied. See “Care and Cleaning”.
When your air conditioner is operating normally, you may hear sounds such as:
■ Droplets of water hitting the condenser, causing a pinging or clicking sound. The water droplets help cool the condenser.
■ Air movement from the fan.
■ Clicks from the thermostat cycle.
■ Vibrations or noise due to poor wall or window construction.
■ A high-pitched hum or pulsating noise caused by the modern high-efficiency compressor cycling on and off.
The remote control allows you to turn the air conditioner on and off, as well as select the Mode, Fan Speed, and set the temperature and time using the same method as the control panel. The LCD display on the remote will display the current mode and settings.
Additional functions are only available through the remote.

■ The current air conditioner replaced an older model. The use of more efficient components may cause the air conditioner to run longer than an older model, but the total energy consumption will be less. Newer air conditioners do not emit the “blast” of cold air you may be accustomed to from older air conditioners, but this is not an indication of lesser cooling capacity or efficiency. Refer to the efficiency rating (EER) and capacity rating (in BTU/h) marked on the air conditioner.
■ The air conditioner is in a heavily occupied room, or heatproducing appliances are in use in the room. Use exhaust vent fans while cooking or bathing and try not to use heatproducing appliances during the hottest part of the day. A higher-capacity air conditioner may be required, depending on the size of the room being cooled.
■ The air conditioner is not properly sized for your room. Check the cooling capabilities of your room air conditioner. Room air conditioners are not designed to cool multiple rooms.
■ The filter is dirty or obstructed by debris. Clean the filter.
■ There is excessive heat or moisture (open container cooking, showers, etc.) in the room. Use a fan to exhaust heat or moisture from the room. Try not to use heat-producing appliances during the hottest part of the day.
■ The air intakes are blocked. Install the air conditioner in a location where the louvers are free from curtains, blinds, furniture, etc.
■ The temperature of the room you are trying to cool is extremely hot. Allow extra time for the air conditioner to cool off a very hot room.
■ Windows or doors to the outside are open. Close all windows and doors.
■ The temperature setting is not set to a cool enough setting. Adjust the temperature to a cooler setting by pressing the DOWN button to reduce the temperature. Set the Fan control to the highest setting.
