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.
NOTE: If you turn your air conditioner off or if the
compressor turns off when lowering the Thermo­stat Control, wait at least 3 minutes before turning it back on. Doing this keeps the air conditioner from blowing a fuse or tripping a
circuit breaker.
