Hampton Bay is a trade name used by Home Depot to identify quite a few of their products. I'm sure you could get info. you need from them. Try Home Depot on the web first. You may have to go to a store or call though.

I can answer some of your questions as I just bought a small window unit from Home Depot.Energy Saver Mode: Turns off the fan whenever the compressor is off. On mine, the fan comes on every 3 minutes to check the room air temp. to determine if cooling is needed.Timer: If A/C is running this button will turn off A/C after elapsed time. Settable in 1 hour increments up to 12 hours. After 30 min. set temp. will be raised 2 degrees F and another 2 degrees after after a total of 60 min.If A/C is OFF, will turn on A/C after elasped time. Same time range as above. Mode: Switches between Fan, Cool and Dry. The book does not explain what Dry mode is.Mine does not have an AUTO button.Hope this helps.

WE JUST BOUGHT A HAMPTON BAY A/C UNIT FROM HOME DEPOT. WE ARE HAVING A PROBLEM WITH IT GETTING COOL OR EVEN COLD. WE WERE TOLD IT WOULD BE 3 WEEKS BEFORE A SERVICE REP COULD COME OUT. THIS IS RIDICULOUS. WHY AREN'T THERE MORE THAN ONE SERVICEMAN IN THE SLIDELL, LA. AREA?

This may sound stupid.. but make sure you have the "mode" selection set to "cool"... otherwise it only blows the fan... and F3 will be the highest fan speed.
