Chart Summary and Explanations
When the compressor has been running for 6 minutes or more and the temperature of the
indoor heat exchange coil falls below 30°F, the control circuit stops the compressor for at
least 6 minutes. The compressor does not start again until the temperature rises above
46°F or 6 minutes has elapsed.
