Fan cycle switch
The Fan Cycle Switch is located under the control panel behind the front grille. This switch is set to CONT at the factory to provide continuous fan operation in cool or heat modes. Leaving the switch at the CONT setting allows continuous circulation of room air and will keep the room temperature at stable condition. If you want the fan to cycle on and off with the compressor or electrical heater, set the switch to CYCLE.
Care and Cleaning
Turn off the air conditioner before cleaning.
Air Filters
The air filters should be cleaned at least once every two weeks. Clogged filters reduce cooling, heating and air flow.
Keeping these filters clean will:
• Decrease cost of operation.
• Save energy.
• Prevent clogged heat exchanger coils.
• Reduce costly compressor problems.
To remove the air filters:
Freeze Protection
Freeze Protection helps prevent plumbing damage due to sub-freezing temperatures — even if you have turned the mode selector switch to OFF. The unit automatically turns on the heater and fan if the room temperature falls to about 46°F.
You do not have to do anything to activate the Freeze Protection. It will work as long as power to the unit has not been interrupted.
To clean the air filters:
• Vacuum off heavy dirt.
• Run water through the filters.
• Dry thoroughly before replacing.
To reinstall the air filters:
Do not operate the air conditioner without the filters in place. If a filter becomes torn or damaged it should be replaced immediately. Operating the unit without the fil­ters in place or with damaged filters will allow dirt and dust to reach the indoor coil and reduce the efficiency of the unit.
Replacement filters (STK01AF) are available from the deal­er or installer.
Front Grille & Wall Case
Wash the front grille and wall case finish with mild soap or detergent and lukewarm water.

Control Panel
The control panel is shipped with a protective plastic film. This film can be left on or removed. To clean, use a damp cloth and mild detergent.
Outdoor Coil
The coil on the outdoor side of the unit should be checked periodically and cleaned if clogged with dirt or soot from the atmosphere. If extremely dirty, it may need to be professionally steam cleaned.
Base Pan
In some installations, dirt or other foreign matter may be blown into the unit from the outside and settle in the base pan (the bottom of the unit). Check the base pan periodically and clean it out, if necessary.
Tips for Energy Saving
Do not
Block the air intake and outlet of the unit. If they are obstructed, the unit will not work well, and may be damaged.
• Let direct sunlight into the room. Use sunshades, blinds or curtains. If the walls and ceiling of the room are warmed by the sun, it will take longer to cool the room.
Do
• Keep the air filter clean. (Refer to “Care and Cleaning.”) A clogged filter will impair the performance of the unit.
• To prevent conditioned air from escaping, keep win­dows, doors and any other openings closed.
• Keep the ventilator closed for economy and maximum cooling.

• The power cord is not plugged in or circuit breaker is tripped.
• The unit is waiting for the compressor overload protector to reset.
• Curtains, blinds or furniture blocking the front of the air conditioner are restricting the air flow.
• Thermostat control may not be set high/low enough. Turn the control to a lower or higher position. (NOTE: In some installations, the thermostat control cannot be turned all the way to the highest end or lowest end. This is normal. Do not attempt to force the control beyond its stopping points.)
• A dirty air filter is blocking air flow. The filter should be cleaned at least once every 2 weeks. See the instruc­tions in the cleaning section.
• The room may have been very hot or very cold when the air conditioner was first turned on. Allow time for it to cool down or warm up.
• The ventilation control may be set to the OPEN position, allowing outside air to enter the room.
• Dust on the surface of the electrical heater can cause a “burning” odor at the beginning of the heating opera­tion. This odor should quickly fade.
• Relay clicks may be heard when the compressor or fan cycles on and off. This is normal.
• The fan runs continuously when the unit is operating unless the Fan Cycle Switch under the control panel is set to CYCLE. In this case, the fan cycles on and off with the electrical heater or compressor.
• The Fan Cycle Switch may be set to Fan Cont (continuous). This causes the fan to blow room air even when the compressor is off. The continuous air flow provides better overall tem­perature control.
• The Fan Cycle Switch may be set to Fan Cont (continuous). This causes the fan to blow room air even when the electrical heater is off. The contin­uous air flow provides better overall temperature control.

6. TEMPERATURE LIMITING
The normal range of the thermostat control is approximately 55°F to 88°F. The control range may be narrowed by the use of the Temperature Limiting screws located behind the control panel.
Repositioning the screw on the left will limit the maximum temperature about 3.7°F for each hole in a clockwise rotation; the screw on the right will limit the minimum temperature when moved counter­clockwise. Limiting the maximum and minimum set­tings prevents users from turning the controls to extreme positions. Restrictions to full rotation of the thermostat knob may require explanation to the room occupant that the unit will provide comfort­able conditions at the settings allowed.
To access the limiting screws, remove the front grille, the thermostat knob and the operation knob by pulling each knob off its shaft and the control panel. (See the illustration “Fan Cycle Switch” on page 4.) Set the limiting screws to the desired set­ting, and replace the control panel and the control knobs. If the settings do not allow sufficient room temperature control, the limiting screws may have to be repositioned.
5. AIR LOUVERS
The direction of the heated or cooled air may be adjusted by removing and turning the louvers around.
To change the louver direction, remove the front grille and 2 louver screws that hold the louvers in place. Turn the louver section 180° (end for end), replace the screws and replace the front grille. The textured face of the louver section must be facing toward the room side.
When the limiting screws are relocated, it is recom­mended that the screws be set no higher than the second hole from the original bottom position. This provides an operating range between approximately 58°F and 80°F. In order to maximize the benefit of the temperature limiting, it may be necessary to adjust the limiting screws seasonally, maintained at moder­ate temperatures (i.e., heating season temperatures limited between 60°F and 75°F; cooling season tem­peratures limited between 85°F and 65°F).

The unit may be controlled either by the unit-mount­ed controls (Control Panel) or by optional Class 2 ther­mo controller (SC2001 for Cool/Heat Model and SC2201 for Heat Pump Model) with optional Interface kit (STK02LVC). Detailed instructions are included in the kit.
The unit may be connected to a switch at the front desk to control on and off operation of the compres­sor or heater from the front desk with the optional interface kit. (See the picture below.) When the switch is set to OPEN, the unit is operable. When the switch is set to CLOSED, the unit is made inoperative. Detailed hook-up instructions are in the interface kit. Follow the recommended wire sizing in the table below. Two wires must be used from each FDC switch to each individual unit.
Good wiring practices (e.g. twisted pairs, SEPARA­TION FROM POWER CIRCUITS) must be followed to minimize induced voltages which may harm the con­trol system. Do not use a common line in the FDC wiring.
A 24V A/C transformer is contained within the unit and no external voltage should be applied to the unit through the FDC switch. The Freeze Protection remains in active mode to help protect against low temperature damage even though the unit may be OFF by FDC.
