ADDITIONAL THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW
Now that you have mastered the operating procedure, here are more features in your control that you should become familiar with.
• The "Cool" circuit has an automatic 3 minute time 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 shutting down when selecting FAN ONLY/HEAT. This is to cover the possibility of
having to roll through to select another mode.
The control will maintain the set temperature within 2 degrees Fahrenheit, between 60F and 90F degrees in cool mode, 55F
and 80F degrees in heat mode(the upper limit of temperature could reach 86F degrees on some of the 115V models).
After a power outage, the unit will memorize the last setting and return the unit to the same setting once power is restored.
Fresh Air Vent Control (on some models)
The Fresh Air Vent allows the air conditioner to:
1. Recirculate inside air - Vent Closed (see Fig, 1)
2. Draw fresh air into the room - Fresh Air (see Fig, 2)
3. Exchange air from the room - Vent Open (see Fig. 3)
