Air conditioner seems to run too much
■
The current air conditioner replaced an older model. The
use of more efficient components may cause the air
conditioner to run longer than an older model, but the total
energy consumption will be less. Newer air conditioners do
not emit the “blast” of cold air you may be accustomed to
from older units, but this is not an indication of lesser cooling
capacity or efficiency. Refer to the efficiency rating (EER) and
capacity rating (in BTU/hr.) marked on the air conditioner.

The air conditioner is in a heavily occupied room, or heat-
producing appliances are in use in the room. Use exhaust
vent fans while cooking or bathing and try not to use heat-
producing appliances during the hottest part of the day. A
higher capacity air conditioner may be required, depending
on the size of the room being cooled.

Temperature on display does not match room
temperature
■
When the compressor and fan motor turn off during
Power Saver mode, or after you turn off the unit, a lower
temperature reading than the actual room temperature
may be displayed for a short period of time. This lower
temperature reading is caused by the temperature sensor
being located close to the cold evaporator coil. The actual
room temperature will display within a few minutes.
