HOW AND WHY
Your room air conditioner provides the following
functions to make hot weather I]ving more comfortable:
•Cools and circu{ates room sir,
-Lowers humidity by removing excess moisture.
,Fiite_ out aumtr_rtime dust, dirt, and some airborne impurities,
The air conditioner performs these fun_ons by drawing room air through a filter which traps dust and dirt particles_ The air then passes over a
cooling coil which refrigerates the air and removes excess moisture, The same air is then returned to
the room- cooter_ drier, and cleaner. Moisture removed from the room air is carried to the outside and evaporated_
Your sir conditioner is designed to be easy to operate and to provide plenty of cooling power,
--Compressor
The mo_em high efficiency compressor may have a high pitched hum or pulsating noise that cycles on andoff,

NORMAL SOUNDS FtG. ,3
Aside from the regular fan motor and: compn_ssor sounds coming from your air conditioner, you will once in s white hear a pinging sound. This is the result of moisture being picked up from the air in the room an_ thrown against the air conditioners fan, This is normal and should not be cause for concern,
Also_ do not be alarmed if you hear a slight hissing
or gurgling sound coming from your air conditioner after it is off. These are normal coolant noises.
CAPACITY AND RUNNING TIME
Proper unit size is important in deciding the desired comfort for the area you want to cool The proper size is determined by the number of square feet
in the area to be cooled, indoor and outdoor temperature and hum{dlty.
Whenever the heat or humidity load is above: norms} the air conditioner must run longer and more olten to keep the desired temperature you have selected, Under heavy heat icad conditions the a_r cenc_itioner may need to run constantly to keep the temperature you want,
At times using the MED FAN setting to circulate room air may make it comfortable even though the air is not being ccoied. This wdti decrease your cost of use.
--Condenser
You may hear droplets ofwater hitting the condenser causing a pinging or clicklng sound,
