Operating Modes
This unit offers three primary modes:
- Cool Mode
- Cools the room to the set temperature. Use the '+' and '-' buttons to adjust the desired temperature and the fan speed button to select low, medium, or high airflow. The unit will automatically switch between compressor and fan operation to maintain the set temperature.
- Dehumidifier Mode
- Removes excess moisture from the air. In this mode, the fan typically runs at a low speed to maximize moisture removal. The unit will collect water in its internal tank. If the tank becomes full, the unit will stop operation and indicate that it needs emptying.
- Fan Mode
- Circulates air in the room without cooling. Use this mode for ventilation or to supplement other cooling methods. Fan speed can be adjusted.
Timer Function: ⏱️ The timer can be set to turn the unit on or off after a specified period, from 1 to 24 hours.
Remote Control: ▶️ The included remote control allows for convenient operation of all functions from a distance. Ensure the remote is pointed towards the unit's receiver.
