Why Does It Keep Switching From Air Conditioning To Fan?
Hi,
I have it set on the cooling mode. However, after about 5-10 minutes of running, it will switch to fan only and the air is actually quite warm (even warmer than a fan). It switches back and forth from air conditioning to fan in about 5-10 minute intervals. I do not have it on timer or sleep mode. I turned the temperature to the lowest temperature possible. And yet, the air coniditioner keeps switching off to just fan and it actually blows hot air.
Thanks!
