Controls
COOL MODE
Use the COOL mode for cooling.
To set the COOL mode:
1. Press the MODE pad until the COOL indicator light is lit.
2. Press the FAN pad to set HIGH, MEDIUM, or LOW fan speed.
3. Press + or - to set the desired temperature between 64°F and 86°F in 1°F increments.
After settings have been made, the display will not change back to show the room temperature.
The temperature control is used to maintain the room temperature. The compressor will cycle on and off to keep the room at the set level
of comfort. Set the temperature control at a lower number and the indoor air will become cooler. Set the temperature control at a higher
number and the indoor air will become warmer.
Cooling Descriptions
For Normal Cooling — Select the COOL mode and HIGH, MEDIUM, or LOW fan speed with a middle set temperature.
For Maximum Cooling — Select the COOL mode and HIGH fan speed with a lower set temperature.
For Quieter & Nighttime Cooling — Select the COOL mode and LOW fan speed with a middle set temperature.
NOTE: If you switch from COOL or DRY mode setting to
OFF, wait 3 minutes before restarting.
NOTE: If the air conditioner is off and is then turned on while set to COOL, it will take
approximately 3 minutes for the compressor to start and cooling to begin.
Set Temperature will be shown when unit is in operation.
DRY MODE—DEHUMIDIFICATION
Use the DRY mode to provide dehumidification only. The fan will run at a fixed speed at this setting, so a fan speed cannot be set. Keep
windows and doors closed for the best dehumidifying effects.
To set the DRY mode:
• Press the MODE pad until the DRY indicator light is lit.
In the DRY mode, a set temperature will not be displayed. After DRY mode has been set, the display will change back to show the room
temperature.

2. Connect a drain hose to the upper drain port (see page 10, upper drain #11) and lead hose to floor drain.
3. Reconnect the power cord and press the MODE pad until the DRY indicator light is lit.
NOTE: If you switch from a DRY setting to OFF or to a fan setting, wait at
least 3 minutes before switching back to a DRY setting.
FAN MODE
Use the FAN mode to provide air circulation and filtering without cooling.
To set the FAN mode:
• Press the FAN pad until the desired indicator light for HIGH, MEDIUM, or LOW fan speed is lit.
Since fan only settings do not provide cooling, a set temperature will not be displayed. After FAN speed has been set, the display will
change back to show the room temperature. The exhaust hose and window kit do not need to be installed when operating in fan mode.
