The Auto OFF timer is a smart energy-saving feature built into AirTouch 5 that helps ensure your air conditioning system doesn't run longer than necessary.

Whether your AC was turned on manually or by a scheduled program, Auto OFF will shut it down after a preset period, giving you peace of mind and helping reduce energy costs.

What is Auto OFF?

Auto OFF is a smart timer that automatically turns off your AC after a specified duration, regardless of how it was activated. This is especially useful if you forget to turn the system off before leaving home or going to sleep.

For example:
If Auto OFF is set to 2 hours, and a scheduled program turns the AC on for 3 hours, the system will still turn off after 2 hours.

Note: Auto OFF always overrides other timers or schedules.

Benefits of Auto OFF

  • Reduces unnecessary energy usage

  • Works independently of other timers and programs

  • Helps save on energy bills
