Cooling Mode

NOTE: The exhaust hose must be used in Cooling mode in order to cool a room.

Cooling mode cools and dehumidifies the air. If the ambient temperature drops below the temperature you selected, the compressor turns off and the unit functions with the fan only. When the temperature rises above the temperature you selected, the compressor turns on again.

Whether your desired temperature can actually be reached depends on the ambient conditions. The room temperature remaining above the set temperature is normal.

To operate the unit in cooling mode:

1)Make sure the power cord is plugged into a power outlet.

2)Press the Power button.

3)Press the Mode button until the LED indicator next to “Cool” lights up.

4)Select the fan speed by using the Fan button.

5)Set the thermostat by using the Up and Down buttons. The thermostat is adjustable between 62°F - 88°F in two degree increments.

During the Dehumidifying mode, the unit will condense water out of the air and

1)Make sure the power cord is plugged into a power outlet.

2)Remove the exhaust hose from the back of the unit.
