WARNING Prevent Accidents To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or injury to persons when using your air conditioner, follow basic precautions, including the following: Be sure the electrical service is adequate for the model you have chosen. This information can be found on the serial plate, which is located on the side of the cabinet and behind the grille. If the air conditioner is to be installed in a window, you will probably want to clean both sides of the glass first. If the window is a triple-track type with a screen panel included, remove the screen completely before installation. [. . . ] Once the room has cooled, adjust the temperature selector to the setting you find most comfortable. Review the "Operating Instructions" section for other settings. Operating Instructions The controls featured in this manual are representative of many available models. Your model may offer slightly different features. Temperature Selector This is used to set the desired room temperature when the unit is being operated in the "COOL MODE". To set the desired room temperature, rotate the selector switch to the desired setting. After the set temperature is achieved, the thermostat will automatically start and stop the compressor in order to maintain the desired set temperature. Rotate the temperature selector counter-clockwise for lower cool settings. Lower cool settings will provide higher room temperature. Cool Mode The desired cool setting is selected by rotating the MODE knob to the appropriate location. Note:If your unit is equipped with a vent handle, keep it closed for maximum efficiency. Fan Mode Rotate the MODE knob to the left to select your choice of fan speeds for air circulation. On models with a vent control, this mode can be used to remove stale air from the room, or to draw fresh air into the room. Check the section `Additional Things You Should Know'. WARNING Please always wait 3 minutes when turning unit off then on again, and when changing from cool to fan and back to cool. This prevents compressor from overheating & possible circuit breaker tripping. Failure to follow these instructions may be harmful to your unit. 2009 Electrolux Home Products, Inc.
