Fuzzy logic helps ensure stable system performance by maintaining evaporating temperatures (Te) in cooling mode, and condensing tem-
peratures (Tc) in heating mode. Both cooling and heating modes can be determined at various steps in the installation mode.
• Te: 36~41°F
• Tc: 117~124°F
Te and Tc can be simultaneously determined by setting DIP switches.
