Adjust the temperature setting
It would help to push the up and down buttons to set the input temperature setting. This way, you will be able to select the temperature to the setting you want. Once you’re done, the AC will run once the input temperature is higher than the set temperature.
Manual temperature override
If you want to override the manual temperature, you can press the Hold button on the thermostat. You will be able to override any programmed settings and manually choose the preferred temperature.
