Some LG units feature a heater as well as the cooling function.

An LG air conditioner window unit features a digital display and several buttons used to control the air temperature in the designated room. The unit is installed into a windowsill and blows cool air into the room as needed. Changes to the temperature can be made on the control panel of the unit or with the supplied remote control. To put the LG to use, you need to know which buttons perform certain tasks.
