Abstract

A heat-pump type air-conditioner includes a potentiometer provided to output a voltage corresponding to a position of a slidable terminal movable on a register element. Based on the magnitude of the output voltage, one of a cooling mode, a stop mode and a heating mode is set, as is the speed of the compressor consequently, both the modes selection and the temperature control can be performed with one switch operation.
