How to operate your Friedrich room air conditioner

To start unit

If your air conditioner is installed and plugged into a proper receptacle, it is ready to go. The first time the unit is started, the compressor will delay for three minutes. See Automatic Component Protection on the following page.

1Touch the Power button once. The unit will automatically be in Cool mode with the temperature set at 75°F (24°C) and the fan speed at F1, the sleep setting.

To activate Smart Fan (WY/WE heat-cool models)

9Press the Smart Fan button to activate the Smart Fan. The light will indicate that this feature is in use.

Smart Fan will adjust the fan speed automatically to maintain the desired comfort level. For example, if the outside doors in your home are opened for an extended period of time, or more people enter a room, Smart Fan may adjust to a higher fan speed to compensate for the increased heat load. This keeps you from having to adjust the fan speed on your own.

When you first turn the unit on, it will be in the Cool mode with con- stant fan.

2On WS cool-only models, touch the Mode button once to activate the MoneySaver® (WS models only. See item 14 for Money Saver instructions on WY/WE models).

MONEYSAVER® is a feature that cycles the fan with the compres- sor so that the fan does not run all the time.
