Power failure

If you have a power failure, the unit's auto-restart feature will resume operation in the selected mode prior to the power failure

Won't cool?

If your air conditioner operates, but won’t cool; check to see if the controls are properly set. Check the filter and clean thoroughly if needed. Check to see if the vent door is closed. Check to see if the chassis seal gasket is installed (refer to installation instructions).

Won't run?

Make sure the power cord is plugged in all the way. Check for a bad fuse, tripped breaker or tripped LCDI Device. Refer to page 3 for LCDI reset instructions and to conﬁrm proper fuse size. Lastly, you can reset the circuit board by pressing the “MONEYSAVER” button and the “FILTER ALERT” button at the same time. The LED (small red light) for the Filter Alert will begin blinking. Once this occurs, turn the unit off by pressing the On/Off button once and then unplug the unit. Finally, plug the unit back in and turn it on by pressing the On/Off button once. All settings revert back to the factory default settings.

This is a warm weather appliance

Your air conditioner is designed to cool in warm weather when the outside temperature is above 60°F (16°C), so it won't cool a room if it is already cool outside. If you want to cool a room in the winter, touch FAN ONLY and set the FRESH AIR/EXHAUST control to FRESH AIR. This will bring in a supply of outside air.

Condensation is normal

Air conditioners actually pump heat and humidity from your room to the outside air. Humidity becomes water, and your air conditioner will use most of the water to keep the outside coil cool. If there is excessive humidity, there may be excess water that will drip outside. This is normal operation.

Frosting

This usually occurs because of insufficient airflow across the coils, a dirty filter, cool damp weather, or all of these. Set unit to Fan Only and the frost will disappear. Setting the thermostat a little warmer will probably prevent the frosting from recurring.

Noises

Allairconditionersmakesomenoise. FriedrichQuietMaster® units operate as quietly as possible. An air conditioner mounted in a wall is quieter than one mounted in a window. If mounted in a window, the window mounting kit provided with the QuietMaster models will reduce operating sound levels, when properly installed. It is important to ensure that the chassis seal gasket is properly installed (refer to installation instructions).

Cleaning your air conditioner

The decorative front and the cabinet can be cleaned with warm water and a mild liquid detergent. The indoor coil can be vacuumed with a dusting attachment if it appears to be dirty. The outdoor coil can be gently sprayed with a hose if you can get to it. If not, you might call your dealer for a more thorough cleaning when needed. The air ﬁlter should be inspected weekly and cleaned if needed by vacuuming with a dust attachment or by cleaning in the sink using warm water and a mild dishwashing detergent. Dry thoroughly before reinstalling the ﬁlter.
