COOLING MODE In this mode, the air conditioner cools and dehumidifies the room. To activate this function mode, press the MODE button until the COOL indicator light comes on. When the cooling mode is set, the compressor will start in approximately 3 minutes. In cooling mode, hot air is exhausted from the outdoor exhaust port and the exhaust hose must be connected to exhaust out the hot air. The temperature setting range of this air conditioner is from 60°F / 16°C to 86°F / 30°C. To set the temperature, press the + or buttons. This air conditioner has a 5°F temperature cushion which if the set temperature is within 5°F of the ambient temperature, the unit runs on fan only mode. This saves energy and prolongs the life of the compressor of the air conditioner. To set the fan speed, press the FAN button. In cooling mode, the difference in noise level between the fan speeds is not very no ticeable when the compressor is on. Try setting the unit to Fan only mode, you should be able to hear the difference between high and low fan speed settings.
DRY (DEHUMIDIFYING) ONLY MODE In this mode, the air conditioner only dehumidifies the room, the compressor will activate intermittently depending on the ambient temperature and the fan speed is set to LOW. To activate this function mode, press the MODE button until the DRY indicator light is displayed. Please note that when switching function mode, there will be an approximately 3 minute transition time. In dehumidifying mode, the exhaust hose does not need to be vented. If the exhaust hose is vented, the room will be cooled as it dehumidifies. To prevent cooling, remove the exhaust hose from the window kit and allow the warm air from the rear to be re-circulated into the room. If room temperature is higher than 77°F, the fan speed can be adjusted. If room temperature is lower than 77"F, the fan speed is set at low. NOTE: When using dehumidifying mode, venting the exhaust hose to the outside is not required. If vented, the warm air is exhaust ed to the outside and cooling within the room may occur. Additionally, if the exhaust hose is not vented, the unit may require more frequent draining. Also, the air conditioner does not have a humidistat in which a specific humidity level can be set.
AUTOMATIC MODE When you set the air conditioner in AUTO mode, it will automatically select cooling, heating*, or fan-only operation depending on what temperature you have selected and the room temperature. The air conditioner will control the room temperature automatically around the set temperature selected. The fan speed is automatically selected and cannot be changed. To operate the unit in Auto mode when the unit is on, press the mode button until the Auto indicator light comes on *ARC-1230WNH model only.
HEAT MODE (*only for ARC-1230WNH) This air conditioner operates on the heat-pump principle, absorbing heat from air outdoors and transferring that heat to the indoor unit. In this mode, the air conditioner heats the room. To activate this function mode, press the MODE button until the HEAT indicator display comes on. When the heating mode is set, the compressor will start in approximately 3-5 minutes. The heating temperature setting range of this air conditioner is from 60°F -86°F / 16°C -30°C. To set the temperature, press the UP and DOWN buttons. To set the fan speed, press the FAN button.
FAN ONLY MODE In this mode, only the fan of the air conditioner runs and circulates the air in the room. To activate this function mode, press the MODE button until the FAN indicator light comes on. In this function mode, the temperature cannot be set. Subsequently, set the desired fan speed by pressing the FAN button. When using FAN only mode, venting the exhaust hose to the outside is optional.
OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
TIMER (DELAYED SWITCH ON/ OFF) FUNCTION This function mode enables a delayed switch ON or delayed switch OFF of the air conditioner. The time (hours) delay can be set, enabled and disabled. SETTING SWITCH OFF TIMER With the air conditioner operating in any function mode, press the TIMER button. The TIMER OFF light will come on. Then set the desired time delay OFF hours by pressing the UP and DOWN buttons. The time increments are at 0.5 hour to up to 10 hours, followed by 1 hour increment up to 24 hours. When the delay time set has elapsed, the air conditioner switches off. To cancel the delayed switch off function, turn off the air conditioner or adjust the time set-ting to 0.0. SETTING DELAYED SWITCH ON TIMER With the air conditioner is off, press the TIMER button. The TIMER ON light will come on. Then set the desired time delay ON hours by pressing the UP and DOW N buttons. The time increments are at 0.5 hour to up to 10 hours, fol-lowed by 1 hour increment up to 24 hours. When the delay time set has elapsed, the air conditioner switches on. To cancel the delayed switch on function, turn on the air conditioner or adjust the time setting to 0.0. I SENSE FUNCTION The remote control serves as a remote thermostat allowing for the precise and comfortable temperature control. With this tech nology, an efficient temperature sensor is integrated in the remote control. To activate the I SENSE function, press I SENSE button on the remote control. Once this function is activated, the remote control will send the temperature signal to the air conditioner every 3 minutes interval until you press the I SENSE button again. The air conditioner will automatically cancel the I SENSE feature if it does not receive the signal during any 7 minutes interval. NOTE: The I SENSE feature is not available in DRY and FAN mode. Shifting the operating mode or turning off the unit will cancel the Follow Me feature automatically. The remote control needs to be within 26 feet reach of the indoor unit for the I SENSE mode to work appropriately. SLEEP MODE In this mode, the air conditioner gradually increases the set temperature in cooling mode or decreases the set temperature in heating mode*. It decreases the noise level and conserves energy. In cooling mode, the set temperature is increased by 2°F/ 1°C in the first 30 minutes. The temperature will then increases by another 2°F/ 1°C after an additional 30 minutes. For models with heat mode, the set temperature is decreased by 2°F/ 1°C in the first 30 minutes. The temperature will then decreases by another 2°F/ 1°C after an additional 30 minutes. This new temperature will remain the same for 7 hours. To activate this function mode, press the SLEEP button until the SLEEP indicator light comes on. NOTE: This feature is not available in FAN or DRY modes. *ARC-1230WNH model only AUTO RESTART In the event of a power outage, the air conditioner restarts at the previously set function mode and settings when power is restored. CONTROLLING THE AIR FLOW DIRECTION The louvers can be controlled to Auto-Swing or in a fixed direction. To control the air flow direction by Auto-Swing, press the SWING button. To set the louvers in a fixed angle or direction, press SWING button while on Auto-Swing mode when desired angle is chosen. CLEAN FILTER REMINDER The FILTER light on the display will illuminate after 250 working hours as a reminder to clean the filter for a more efficient operation. After cleaning the filter, press the SLEEP button for 3 seconds to clear the clean filter reminder light. NOISE LEVEL Portable air conditioners may make sounds that are not familiar to you. The sounds listed below are normal. Noise reflecting off hard surfaces such as a floor or wall can make sounds seem louder than they actually are.
· The compressor may make a pulsating or high-pitched sound · Water running from the evaporator to the water tank may make a splashing sound · Refrigerant flowing may make a gurgling sound · Fan sound may come from front and back air vents COMPRESSOR LOCK OUT This portable air conditioner is optimized to operate in an ambient temperature of 64°F - 90°F. The compressor circuit has an auto matic 3 minute time delayed start if the unit is turned off and on quickly. This prevents over-heating of the compressor and possi ble circuit breaker tripping.
