OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

TO OPERATE YOUR HEAT PUMP FOR COOLING —

1.Set the thermostat system switch to COOL and the thermostat fan switch to AUTO. (See

Figure 1)

2.Set the thermostat temperature to the desired temperature level using the temperature selector. Please refer to the separate detailed thermostat user’s manual for complete instructions regarding thermostat programming. The outdoor unit and indoor blower will both cycle on and off to maintain the indoor temperature at the desired cooling level.

NOTE: If the thermostat temperature level is re-adjusted, or the thermostat system switch is repositioned, the outdoor unit may not start immediately. The outdoor unit contains a protective timer circuit which holds the unit off for approximately five minutes following a previous operation, or the interruption of the main electrical power.

Emergency Heat:

The thermostat includes a system switch position termed EM. HT. This is a back-up heating mode to be used only if there is a suspected problem with the outdoor unit.With the system switch set to EM. HT. the outdoor unit will be locked off, and supplemental heat (typically electric resistance heating) will be used as a source of heat. Sustained use of electric resistance heat in place of the heat pump will result in an increase in electric utility costs.

Defrost:

During cold weather heating operation, the outdoor unit may develop a coating of snow and ice on the heat transfer coil. This is
