Operating Your Air Conditioner

EN
Operating your air conditioner properly helps you to obtain the best possible results.
This section explains proper air conditioner operation.
IMPORTANT:
• If you turn the air conditioner off, wait at least 3 minutes before turning it back on. This prevents the air conditioner from
blowing a fuse or tripping a circuit breaker.
• Do not try to operate your air conditioner in the cooling mode when outside temperature is below 65°F (18°C). The
inside evaporator coil will freeze up and the air conditioner will not operate properly.
