During the cooler eveninghours,
it is recommendedthatyouset the

Thermostat Controlat mid-range

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
