Circulate (sleep) mode The fan speed switches on and off at set speeds thus saving energy during night. It is recommended to set the fan speed at low under this mode for quieter performance and less energy consumption. Cool Function Cool switch is used to operate the automated water pump system. This function is recommended for higher/ efficient cooling effect under any mode. Oscillate Function (Regulating air flow direction) Oscillate function switch is used to direct the air flow automatically from horizontally (side to side) by means of the vertical louvers.
