| The air conditioner is in a heavily occupied room, or heat-producing appliances are in use in the room. | Use exhaust vent fans while cooking or bathing and try not to use heat-producing appliances during the hottest part of the day. A higher capacity air conditioner may be required depending on the size of the room being cooled. | |
| The air conditioner is not properly sized for your RV. | Check the cooling capabilities of your RV air conditioner. | |
| Air conditioner cycles on and off too much or does not cool room in cooling mode | The filter is dirty or obstructed by debris. | Clean the filter. |

| The louvers or ducts are closed. | Make sure louvers are open. | |
| The outside temperature is below 60°F (15°C). | Do not try to operate your air conditioner in the cooling mode when the outside temperature is below 60°F (15°C). | |
| The temperature of the room you are trying to cool is extremely hot. | Allow extra time for the air conditioner to cool off a very hot room. | |
| Windows or doors to the outside are open. | Close all windows and doors. | |
| The Temperature control is not at a cool enough setting. | Adjust the TEMP control to a cooler setting by pressing the minus button to reduce the temperature. Set the Fan Speed control to the highest setting. | |
| Wall thermostat improperly installed | Verify proper installation of Wall Thermostat per installation instructions (pg. 5...not on exterior wall or in direct sunlight......in an area affected by a vent or duct...) | |
| Water drips from cabinet into your house | The indoor coil may be frozen. | De-ice by running the fan only until clear. |
