Operating Your Air Conditioner
To obtain the best possible results from your air conditioner, it is important that you operate it
properly. This section tells you how to set the controls and how to direct the cooled air.
Starting your air conditioner
Fire Hazard
Do not use an extension cord.
Doing so can result in death, fire, or
electrical shock.
Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Failure to follow these instructions
can result in death or electrical shock.
Electrical Shock Hazard
1. Set Exhaust Control to CLOSED for
maximum cooling performance. (See
“Using the exhaust vent control” on
page 6.1
2. Set the Fan Control to the desired
setting. You can use either the Energy
Saver or Normal Fan settings. (See
“Using the energy saver settings” on
paw 6.1
LOW - for sleeping comfort
MED - for normal cooling
QUICK COMFORT - for fastest cooling
FAN ONLY-to circulate room air without
cooling it
3. Turn the Thermostat Control to the
desired setting. You can adjust the air
conditioner’s cooling performance by
turning the Thermostat Control clockwise
for more cooling or counterclockwise for
less cooling. You will need to experiment
to find the setting which suits you best.
IMPORTANT: If you turn the air conditioner
off, or if the compressor turns off when you
lower the Thermostat Control, wait at least
3 minutes before turning the air conditioner
back on. If you don’t wait, you may blow a
fuse or trip a circuit breaker.
