| Switch | Setting | Function | |--------|---------|----------| | DS1-1 | OFF (default) | Temperature sensor: Uses indoor unit sensor | | DS1-1 | ON | Temperature sensor: Uses remote controller’s built-in sensor | | DS1-2 | OFF | Standard operation | | DS1-2 | ON | Celsius / Fahrenheit selection (ON = Fahrenheit) | | DS1-3 | OFF | No function (reserved) | | DS1-4 | OFF | Normal mode |
