About the remote control.
Theremotecontrol transmitsthe signals to the system.
Featuresand appearancemay vary.
AUTO--In this mode, the unit automatica%
controls the room temperature within the
range of 77°F and 68°F.The fan will run
continuously while the unit is in AUTOmode.
When the room temperature exceeds 77°F,the
unit will go into COOLMode. When the room
temperature drops to 73°F,the fan will
continue to run but COOLMode will turn off.
When the temperature drops below 68°F,the
unit will go into HEATMode. When the
temperature reaches 73°F,the fan will
continue to run but HEATMode turns off.
NOTE:This temperature range setting cannot
be adjusted and will not be displaged.
¢_ COOL--Use to cool the room to the desired
temperature set between 61°F and 86°F.
NOTE:The unit will not provide optimum
cooling if the outside temperature is below
60°F. Under certain conditions, the unit mag
activate the antifreeze protection cgcle for
approximatelg 5 minutes to remove ice from
the indoor coil.
666DRY--Use to dehumidifg the room. The fan will
run at a fixed low speed to provide maximum
dehumidification. The temperature can be set
between 61°F and 86°F.
_€ FAN--Use to turn ON and OFFthe fan-onlg
operation. COOL,HEATor DRYmode will not
be provided.
_X HEAT (on models so equipped)--Use to warm
the room to the desired temperature set
between 61°F and 86°F.
NOTE:The unit will not provide optimum
heating if the outside temperature is below
14°F.Under certain conditions, the unit mag
activate the antifreeze protection cgcle for
approximatelg 8 minutes to remove ice from
the outdoor coil. During this cgcle, it is normal
to hear operating sounds such as refrigerant
flowing inside the sgstem.
