Essentials
Arrival & Keys
We want you to feel at home. Here is everything you need for the first five minutes.
Your keys
You will receive two sets of keys, two keys each: one for the building's main door and a coloured one for the apartment. The apartment key only turns in the vertical position.
The door, from inside
To open, turn the key to the left and pull the door inwards. To lock, turn the handle to the right.
If the power goes out
Open the first white door by the entrance and check the panel: every breaker up, and the black button at the bottom left pushed in. Please let Mafalda know if it happens.

Air Conditioning
Unit 1 · Entrance hall
Serves the living room and the bedroom by the entrance. The controller is kept in the hall.
Unit 2 · Last bedroom
Serves both corridor bedrooms. The controller is kept inside that bedroom.
Both units must run in the same mode. If one is set to COOL and the other to HEAT, both stop. The fix: switch both off, wait 30 seconds, start both again in the same mode.
Cool

- Press MODE until the snowflake appears
- Use UP / DOWN to set the temperature
- Two beeps mean it is running

Heat

What you will see
In standby the unit shows one red light; two lights mean it is running. The air comes out through the room grilles, not through the unit itself. Keep the windows closed while the A/C is on, and switch it off when you go out.
