SETTING THE TIMER

The programmer/timer, like all clocks, must be set to the exact time. If for example it is 4.00 p.m., turn the dial in a clockwise direction (following the direction of the arrow) until the number 4 is lined up with the arrow pointer (the arrows indicates 4:00 p.m. approximately).

Note:Never turn the dial in an anti-clockwise direction!

The timer is in effect, an electric clock and works only if the plug is connected to the power supply. Whenever the plug is disconnected or there is a power failure, the programmer stops (the clock is then “slow”) and must be re-set.

The unit can be used in either programmed or non-programmedmode.

4)Select the desired function as shown in the chart overleaf.

The unit will now switch on and off each day at the selected times.

Note: To override the programmed operating times, simply press the ON/OFF key.

NON-PROGRAMMED MODE

1) B TIMER button must be pressed

2)Select the desired function as shown in the chart on the following page.

N.B: For technical reasons, the temperature is not expressed in degrees but by a line increasing in thickness. We therefore recommend that when starting up the appliance, the thermostat be turned to maximum (thick green line = maximum cold). When the desired temperature has been reached, turn the thermostat slowly away from the maximum cooling position until the appliance switches off. Leave the thermostat in this position. The air-conditioner is now programmed to maintain the exact temperature at all times.

After switching the appliance off, wait at least 3 min. before switching on again.
