To clean the filter use one of the following methods for filter removal: Heat Controller, Inc. Optional Air Filter Installation Remove air filter from plastic bag. Insert three tabs on right side of filter into three slots on filter frame. Carefully bow middle of filter until two tabs on filter can be inserted into two slots on filter frame. Relax bow. METHOD ONE Grasp filter handle and slide filter out of unit. Reinstall air filter and grille by reversing removal procedure. Front Grille and Cabinet Cleaning Grille and cabinet may be cleaned with warm water and mild soap or detergent. Cleaning and polishing compounds are not recommended, as they may damage plastic surfaces. Air Filter Cleaning A dirty air filter reduces operating efficiency of unit. Filter should be inspected at least once every week during operation. Clean filter with vacuum cleaner or wash in warm water and mild detergent. Filter should be thoroughly dried before replacing in unit. Do not operate unit without filter in place. Fan Motor Care The fan motor is permanently lubricated for long life. There is no need to oil the motor. Slide-out Chassis Removal from Outer Case 1. Remove front grille by sliding grille to left and pulling out. 2. Remove air filter by sliding to left. 3. Remove four screws holding plastic front to unit and remove front. 4. If the unit has a screw holding the basepan clip to the chassis, remove the screw.

Using basepan handle, pull chassis straight out, slowly and evenly, until approximately 9-12 inches extends 4 4 Room Air Heat Pump with R-410A Heat Controller, Inc. from outer case. Use both hands to grasp basepan and pull remaining chassis from outer case. PLASTIC FRONT BASEPAN CLIP Owner’s Manual Drain Cup Installation and Use (on some models) Your air conditioner uses a system where the water removed from the indoor air (condensate) is channeled to the outdoor side of the unit. The outdoor fan blade has a “slinger” ring attached to it that dips into the water and slings the water onto the outdoor coil surface. This is the sound of water you hear during normal operation. The water quickly evaporates on this warm surface and improves the efficiency of your air conditioner. In normal conditions the unit can evaporate the water as fast as it is removed from the indoor air. However, in very humid conditions excess amounts of water may drip off the unit chassis. If this proves to be a problem, install the condensate drain cup included with the unit to route excess water where it would not be a problem (see illustration below). To install, remove the unit chassis from the outer case. Insert the condensate drain cup through the recessed ½” hole on the right side bottom flange of the outer case. Once inserted, place a ½” diameter hose or tube on the drain cup bottom spout. The hose allows you to route where you want the excess water to go. Reinsert the unit chassis into the outer case. The unit basepan overflow hole will be positioned directly above the drain cup and will catch any water that might run out. CHASSIS NOTE: Basepan clip is shipped in plastic bag with mounting screw and condensate drain cup. Install clip after reinserting chassis into outer case to prevent accidental chassis removal. General Operating Instructions While operation of all units is similar, controls vary slightly from model to model. Operating Controls section shows control panel of unit purchased and gives detailed information about operation of controls. Initial Start-Up and Cooling Select the highest fan speed and set temperature control to its coldest position. When the desired temperature is reached, slowly move the temperature control toward a warmer setting until the compressor shuts off. The thermostat will then cycle the compressor on and off to maintain this selected temperature. Adjust the fan speed for desired air circulation. Outer Case Condensate Drain Cup BAFFLES 1/2" Diameter Hose Switchover Thermostat Control Emergency heat switch overrides heat pump (compressor) and starts auxiliary electrical heater. When switch is ON, heat pump is locked out. OUTDOOR LOUVERS INDOOR GRILLE • Changing Airflow Direction Baffles Airflow on unit may be diverted left or right from center by baffles. Upward and downward air discharge is provided by tilting louvers. Adjust baffles and tilt louvers for desired airflow pattern. Use emergency switch only when heat pump fails to provide adequate heat. Cause of heat pump malfunction should be determined by authorized servicer. Cost of operating unit will increase when emergency heat switch is engaged. To access and engage emergency switch: 1. Remove front grille, air filter, and plastic front, as described in Installation Instructions. 2. Remove basepan clip. 3. Slide chassis out of case about two inches. 4. Locate access hole for emergency switch above label on right front of control box. 5. To start emergency heat, insert flathead screwdriver into slot and turn counterclockwise until switch-stop is reached. Airflow Around Unit Check the indoor grille and outdoor louvers for obstructions to airflow. Do not block the airflow to and from the unit. If air is obstructed and/or deflected back into the unit, the air conditioner’s compressor may cycle on and off rapidly. This could damage your unit. 6. Return chassis to case. 7. Replace basepan clip, plastic front, air filter, and front grille. 5 5 IMPORTANT — Save these ● of this air conditioner.

To cancel the timer, press the TIMER TIMER 0.5-24hr 1–24hr pad until the light on theTIMER TIMER0.5-24hr 1–24hr pad goes off. TIMER 0.5-24HR For Quieter & Nighttime Cooling—Select the Cool mode and Low fan with a middle set temperature. DELAY TIMER 0.5-24HR Energy Saver Mode Controls the fan. ON—The fan will cycle on and off with the compressor. This results in wider variations of room temperature and humidity. Normally used when the room is unoccupied. NOTE: The fan may continue to run for a short time after the compressor cycles off. DELAY OFF—The fan runs all the time, while the compressor cycles on and off. Fan Only Mode Use the Fan Only Mode at Low, Med or High fan speed to provide air circulation and filtering without cooling. Since fan only settings do not provide cooling, a Set temperature cannot be entered. The room temperature will appear in the display. Remote Control � To ensure proper operation, aim the remote control at the signal receiver on the air conditioner. � The remote control signal has a range of up to 20 feet. � Make sure nothing is between the air conditioner and the remote control that could block the signal. � Make sure batteries are fresh fresh and installed correctly as indicated on the remote control. NOTE: Auto Fan Speed cannot be used when in the Fan Only Mode. Heat Mode (On some models) Use the Heat mode at Low, Med, High or Auto Fan Speed for heating. Use the Temperature Increase /Decrease pads to set the desired temperature between 61°F and 86°F in 1°F increments. Cool Mode Auto Fan Speed Use the Cool mode at Low, Med, High or Auto Fan Speed for cooling. Use the Temperature Increase � /Decrease � pads to set the desired temperature between 61°F and 86°F in 1°F increments. Set to Auto fan speed for the fan speed to automatically set to the speed needed to provide optimum comfort settings with the set temperature. If the room needs more cooling, the fan speed will automatically increase. If the room needs less cooling, the fan speed will automatically decrease. The compressor will cycle on and off to keep the room at the set level of comfort. Set the thermostat at a lower number and the indoor air will become cooler. Set the thermostat at a higher number and the indoor air will become warmer. NOTE: Auto Fan Speed cannot be used when in the Fan Only Mode. NOTE: If the air conditioner is off and is then turned on while set to a Cool setting or if turned from a fan setting to a Cool setting, it may take approximately 3 minutes for the compressor to start and cooling to begin. Power Outage Recovery Feature In the case of a power outage or interruption, the unit will automatically re-start in the settings last used after the power is restored. If the Timer/Delay0.5-24hr feature was set, it will resume countdown. You may need to set a new time if desired. This time delay is required to protect the compressor. 13 13 Temperature Control blowing Slide this control to the left for a warmer room temperature, before Owner’s to the right for a cooler room temperature.
