Fornwfma~cooling
1. Setthe SelectorSwitchat
HIGH COOL.
2.Set
theThermostatControlat
thedesirednumber (usually 5-7is a
good stafiing position). If room
temperatureis notsatisfactory after
areaso]labletime, settheThermostat.
Controlala highernumberfora

forawarmerroom.
3. SettheVentControlat CLOSED.
4. SettheEnergy SaverSwitchat

toautomaticallycyclethe fanon

Fo~ mtimm cooling
1.SettheSelectorSwitchat

2. Setthe Thermostat Control at

3. SettheVentControIat CLOSED.
4. Set theEnergy SaverSwitch at

For quieter Opemtion
1, Set the Selector Switchat
LOW COOL.
2. Set theThermostat Control at
desired number.
When theThermostat Control is set
at 9or 10and the Selector Switch is
set at LOWCOOL, moisture may
freeze on the coils and preventthe
unit from cooling. If thishappens,
set the Selector Switch to HIGH
COOL and set the Thermostat
Control to Ior 2.
3. Set the VentControl at CLOSED.

settingthe VentControlat AIR IN
allowsasmallamountofoutside
