Push the Exhaust control CLOSED for maximum continuous cooling, Pull the Exhaust control OPEN to allow you to draw stale
or smoky air from the room,
Open--pull to exhaust room air to the outside
Closed--push to circulate room air
NOTE: The Exhaust control will function only when the Fan Speed control is operating.
Fan Speed
Set FAN SPEED to the desired setting. When the air conditioner is operating at Low Cool, High Cool, or Turbo Cool, the fan circulates air continuously.
Turbo Cool--for maximum cooling
High Cool--for normal cooling
Low Cool--for sleeping comfort
Fan Only--to move air continuously without cooling NOTE: Fan runs on Turbo speed only.
Power Saver (on some models)--fan runs only when cooling is needed. Fan stops circulating air when the room temperature matches the Temperature control setting.
Because the fan does not circulate the room air continuously, less energy is used, but the room air is not
circulated as often. Use Power Saver when you are asleep or away from home.
NOTE: Fan runs on Low speed only.
Turn the TEMPERATURE control to a mid-setting. Adjust the air conditioner's performance by turning the Temperature control clockwise for maximum cooling. For less cooling, turn the TEMPERATURE control counterclockwise. Experiment to find the setting that suits you best.

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.
AIR CONDITIONERCARE
Your new air conditioner is designed to give you many years of dependable service. This section tells you how to clean and care for your air conditioner properly. Call your local authorized dealer for an annual checkup. Remember... the cost of this service call is your responsibility.
The air filter is removable for easy cleaning. A clean filter helps remove dust, lint, and other particles from the air and is important for best cooling and operating efficiency. Check the filter every 2 weeks to see whether it needs cleaning.
NOTE: Do not operate the air conditioner without the filter in place.
1. Turn off air conditioner.
2. Remove air filter by sliding filter out from either side of unit.
A. Filter may be removed from either side.
3. Use a vacuum cleaner to clean air filter. If air filter is very dirty, wash it in warm water with a mild detergent. Do not wash air filter in the dishwasher or use any chemical cleaners. Air dry filter completely before replacing to ensure maximum efficiency.
4. Replace air filter by sliding filter back into either side of unit.
1. Unplug air conditioner or disconnect power.
2. Remove the air filter and clean it separately. See "Cleaning the Air Filter."
3. Wipe the front panel with a soft, damp cloth.
4. Air dry front panel completely.
5. Plug in air conditioner or reconnect power.
Check once or twice a year for paint damage. This is very important, especially in areas near oceans or where rust is a problem. If needed, touch up with a good grade enamel paint.
NOTE: To reduce paint damage during the winter, install a heavy- duty cover over air conditioner cabinet. For information on ordering a heavy-duty cover, see "Accessories."
Your air conditioner needs annual maintenance to help ensure steady, top performance throughout the year. Call your local authorized dealer to schedule an annual checkup. The expense of an annual inspection is your responsibility.

NOTE: A damaged power supply cord must be replaced with a new power supply cord obtained from the product manufacturer and must not be repaired.
Air conditioner seems to run too much
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 units, but this is not an indication of lesser cooling
capacity or efficiency. Refer to the efficiency rating lEER) and capacity rating (in BTU/hr.) marked on the air conditioner.
producing appliances are in use in the room. Use exhaust vent fans while cooking or bathing and try not to use heat- producing 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.
Air conditioner cycles on and off too much or does not cool
The Mode is set to Power Saver (on some models). Use Power Saver only when you are asleep or away from home, since the fan does not circulate the room air continuously. Use Low, High or Turbo for your best comfort.
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. The inside evaporator and outside condenser coils are
dirty or obstructed by debris. See "Annual Maintenance," 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 louvers are blocked. Install the air conditioner in a location where the louvers are free from curtains, blinds,
furniture, etc. The outside temperature is below 65°F (18°0). Do not try to
operate your air conditioner in the cooling mode when the outside temperature is below 65°F (18°C).
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 Exhaust control is set to OPEN (on some models). Push the Exhaust control CLOSED for maximum cooling.
Depending on model, the Tempf'rime or Temperature control is not at a cool enough setting. Adjust the TEMP/ TIME control to a cooler setting by pressing the minus button to reduce the temperature, or adjust the TEMPERATURE control to a cooler setting by turning the knob clockwise. Set
the FAN SPEED control to Turbo or Turbo Cool.
Water drips from cabinet into your house
The air conditioner is not properly leveled. The air
conditioner should slope slightly downward toward the outside. Level the air conditioner to provide a downward slope toward the outside to ensure proper drainage. See the
Installation Instructions, NOTE: Do not drill a hole in the bottom of the metal base and
condensate pan.
