AUTO
With unit running in AUTO mode (Fig.M), the machine will
operateaccording to the ambient temperature, and will change
its operational type and fan speed automatically:
Cooling Mode: When temperature is above 25°C (77°F)
Dehumidifier Mode: When temperature is below 25°C (77°F).
1) After setting mode to AUTO, the unit will test the environmental
temperature during the first 3 seconds. Then it will decide which
mode to automatically operate in.
2) Fan speed will change automatically according to ambient
temperature.
CAUTION: Before cleaning or servicing this unit, disconnect from any electrical supply outlet.
1) DO NOT use gasoline, benzene, thinner, or any other chemicals to clean this unit, as these
substances may cause damage to the finish and deformation of plastic parts.
2) Never attempt to clean the unit by pouring water directly over any of the surface areas, as this
will cause deterioration of electrical components and wiring insulation.
3) Unplug the unit.
4. Clean the unit by wiping off any dirt/dust with a soft damp cloth or vacuum cleaner, then wipe
dry with a dry soft cloth.
CAUTION: Always store the unit in vertical position. DO NOT put heavy objects on top of the unit.
CAUTION: Never operate this unit without the air filter in place,
as this may result in damage to the unit.
If the air filter becomes clogged with dust/dirt, air flow is
restricted, which reduces cooling efficiency. The air filter
should be cleaned every two (2) weeks. More frequent
cleaning may be necessary depending on indoor air quality.
NOTE: The air filter is located at the upper rear side of the
unit.
1) To remove the air filter: Pull the air filter cover upward in
the direction of the arrow (Fig. 5) and remove the air filter.
2) Dust/dirt clogged in the filter can be removed by vacuum
cleaning the soiled areas.
3) The filter can also be washed in lukewarm, soapy water
while rubbing it lightly with a brush. A mild detergent
(diswashing liquid) is recommended.
4) Rinse the filter well using clean water. Allow time to dry
before reinstalling into the unit.
5) Replace the air filter and cover.
6) Replacement air filter information is available by
