Igenix IG9900 9000 Control Panel

Power Button:

Above the power button is the;
Warning Light
This light comes on when the internal water tank becomes full from condensed water.
If the tank is full the air conditioner won’t operate. Simply empty the tank to get the unit to operate once more.
Mode Control
Next is Mode Control. This Igenix air con has 3 modes:
- Cooling
- Dehumidify
- Fan
Cooling Mode
As the name implies in cooling mode the unit pushes out cool air. Warm air is then pumped out through the exhaust hose. Note that the exhaust hose must be vented outside.
You can adjust both the fan speed and temperature in cooling mode.
Dehumidify Mode
In dehumidify mode the unit dehumidifies the air that passes through the machine. The unit does not have to be in cooling mode for this to occur.
Fan speed may only be adjusted if the temperature is 25°c otherwise the fan will operate in the medium setting.
In this mode the exhaust hose should not be attached and the continuous drainage feature should be used.
Fan Mode
In fan mode the unit circulates air around the room without being cooled.
Fan Speed Control
Next is the fan speed control. The Igenix IG9900 9000 has 3 fan speeds: low, medium and high.
A light will show which setting the unit is operating in.
Timer Function
Auto Turn Off
With this setting you can choose how long you would like the unit to run for in cool mode before it turns itself off automatically
Auto Turn On
With Auto Turn On you can select the time that you would like the unit to start operating in cool mode.
Timer / Temperature Controls
The default display is the current room temperature however you can adjust the temperature by pushing the up and down arrows. The temperature is only adjustable when the unit is in cool mode.
A pretty cool feature is that when you press the timer and temperature buttons together you can change the temperature reading from celsius to fahrenheit.
