Remote Controller Features ­Ductless High Wall Mount. ONLY

The remote controller comes with a FOLLOW ME
feature which allows the remote controller to act as a
thermostat. This allows the unit to sense the temper­ature at the location of the remote controller, rather

than sensing the temperature at the indoor unit. The

indoor unit is installed high on a wall, thus the ther­mostat on the remote controller will provide a more
accurate temperature reading for the room. Consult
the remote controller manual for more information.
NOTE: The ceiling cassette does NOT come with this
feature.
