The X-FAN icon on the remote means the indoor fan will keep running after the unit is switched off so the coil dries out. It works only in COOL or DRY and starts switched off after power-up. The HEDI remote text gives about 10 minutes of fan run-on; the HT1DI control description gives 2 minutes at low speed.
