- The unit will automatically turn on or off after the set time has elapsed.
4.6 Auto Defrost Control
- The unit is equipped with an automatic defrost function. If frost builds up on the evaporator coils, the compressor will temporarily turn off, and the fan will continue to run to melt the frost. This is normal operation, especially in cooler environments (down to 41°F / 5°C).
