AIR Conditioner USE, Thermostat | Whirlpool ACE082XP1 manual

AIR CONDITIONER USE

Operating your air conditioner properly helps you to obtain the best possible results.

This section explains proper air conditioner operation.

IMPORTANT:

■If you turn off the air conditioner, wait at least 3 minutes before turning it back on. This prevents the air conditioner from blowing a fuse or tripping a circuit breaker.

■Do not try to operate your air conditioner in the cooling mode when outside temperature is below 65°F (18°C). The inside evaporator coil will freeze up, and the air conditioner will not operate properly.

NOTE: In the event of a power failure, your air conditioner will operate at the previous settings when the power is restored.

Starting Your Air Conditioner

1.Set the Exhaust control. See “Exhaust Control (on some models).”

2.Set the Fan Control to desired setting. See “Fan Control” for your model.

3.Turn the Thermostat control to a mid-setting. See “Thermostat” for your model.

Exhaust Control (on some models)

Set the Exhaust control to CLOSED for maximum continuous cooling. The Exhaust control set OPEN allows you to draw stale or smoky air from the room.

■OPEN—to exhaust room air to the outside

■CLOSED—to circulate room air

CLOSED

OPEN

NOTE: The Exhaust control will function only when the Fan Control is operating.

Style 1—Cool only air conditioner settings

Fan Control

Set the Fan control to the desired setting. When the air conditioner is operating at Low Cool, High Cool, or Turbo Cool, the fan circulates air continuously.

■Turbo Cool—for maximum cooling

■High Cool—for normal cooling

■Low Cool—for sleeping comfort

■Fan Only—to move air continuously without cooling NOTE: Fan runs on Turbo speed only.

Thermostat

Turn the THERMOSTAT control to a mid-setting. Adjust the air conditioner's performance by turning the Thermostat control clockwise for maximum cooling. For less cooling, turn the THERMOSTAT control counterclockwise. Experiment to find the setting that suits you best.

Style 2—Heat/Cool Air Conditioner Settings (on some models)

Fan Control

Set the Fan control to the desired setting. When the air conditioner is operating at Low Cool, High Cool, Turbo Cool, Low Heat or Turbo Heat, the fan circulates air continuously.

■Low Heat—for reduced heating

■Turbo Heat—for maximum heating

■Turbo Cool—for maximum cooling

■High Cool—for normal cooling

■Low Cool—for sleeping comfort

■Fan Only—to move air continuously without cooling or heating

NOTE: Fan runs on Turbo speed only.

■Power Saver—the fan runs only when cooling is needed. The fan stops circulating air when the room temperature matches the Thermostat control setting.

Since the fan does not circulate the room air continuously, less energy is used but the room air is not circulated as often. Use Power Saver when you are asleep or away from home.

NOTE: Fan runs on Low speed only.
