For Nighttime Opemtion
During the cooler eveninghours,

it is recommendedthatyouset the
SelectorSwitchatLOW COOL
for very quiet operationandthe
Thermostat Controlat mid-range
(5 or 6).

When the Thermostat Control is set
on 9 or 10and the Fan is set on low
speed, moisture mayfreeze on the
coilsandpreventthe unit from
cooling. If this happens, setthe
Fan at high speed and setthe
Thermostat Control to a lower

number.

For Ventilation
Whethercontrolsare setforcooling
