When using COOL or HEAT mode, setting the
louver at too vertical an angle can reduce the
performance of the unit due to restricted air
flow.
Do not move louver by hand. This will cause the
louver to become out of sync. If this occurs, turn
off the unit and unplug it for a few seconds,
then restart the unit. This will reset the louver.
