to a level of comfor t and not to a temperature in
de
grees Celsius or Fahrenheit.

the value 21 enables optimum comfor t to be obtained. However,depending on your requirements, asetting between 18 and 24 is usual.

Switching to manual mode may not besuitable (temperature, humidity, odour, condensation) and does not provideoptimum comfort.
