The system will automatically revert back to display the previous temperature setting if there is no operation within 5 seconds.

Turning the unit ON or OFF at any time or adjusting the timer setting to 0.0 will cancel the Auto Start/Stop timer program.

Should a malfunction occur, the Auto Start/Stop timed program will also be cancelled.

When setting the TIMER ON or TIMER OFF functions, up to 10 hours, the time will increase in 30 minute increments with each press. After 10 hours and up to 24, it will increase in 1 hour increments. The timer will revert to zero after 24 hours. You can turn off either function by setting the timer to “0.0h”.

Pressing this button will increase (during cooling operation) or decrease (during heating operation, applicable models) 1°F/1°C after 30 minutes. The temperature will again increase (cooling) or decrease (heating) by another 1°F/1°C after an additional 30 minutes. This new temperature will be maintained for 7 hours before returning to the originally selected temperature. This ends the Sleep mode and the unit will continue to operate as originally programmed.

The SLEEP operation feature is unavailable in FAN or DRY mode.

This feature can ONLY be activated from the remote control. The remote control serves as a remote thermostat allowing for the precise temperature control at its location which must be within 26 feet of the TOSHIBA RAC-PD1013CWRU air conditioner. To activate the MyTemp feature, point the remote control towards the unit and press the MyTemp button. The remote’s display will show actual temperature at its location and must be within 26 feet of the air conditioner to work. The remote control will send this signal to the air conditioner every 3 minutes until the MyTemp button is pressed again. If the unit does not receive the MyTemp signal during any 7 minute interval, the unit will exit the MyTemp mode.

This feature is unavailable under FAN or DRY mode.

If the TOSHIBA RAC-PD1013CWRU unit shuts off unexpectedly due to a power outage, it will restart with the previously set function automatically when the power resumes.

After the unit has stopped, it cannot be restarted until 3 minutes time has elapsed. This is to protect the unit. Operation will automatically resume after 3 minutes.

The louver can be adjusted automatically using the SWING button.

When the Power is ON, the louver opens fully.

Press the SWING button on the panel or remote controller to initiate the Auto Swing feature. The louver will swing up and down automatically.

Please do not adjust the louver manually.

During Dry modes, remove the upper drain plug from the back of the unit and install the drain connector (5/8″ universal female mender) with 3/4″ hose (locally purchased).

For models without drain connector, just attach the drain hose to the hole. Place the end of the hose directly in the drain area you’re using.

For Heat Pump models, remove the middle drain plug from the back of the unit and install the drain connector (5/8″ universal female adapter) with a 3/4″ hose (not included). For models without the drain connector, attach the drain hose to the connector. Place the end of the hose in the drain area you’re using. In Heat Pump mode, the drain hose can be elevated up to 6ft (1.8m). Direct the hose toward the drain, making sure that there are no kinks that will restrict water flow. Place the end of the hose into the drain and make sure the end of the hose is directed downward.

When the water level of the bottom tray reaches a predetermined level, the unit beeps 8 times. The digital display shows “P1.” At this time the air conditioning/dehumidification process will immediately stop. However, the fan motor will continue to operate (this is normal). Carefully move the unit to a drain location, remove the bottom drain plug and let the water drain away. Reinstall the bottom drain plug and restart the machine until the “P1” symbol disappears. If the error repeats, call for service.
