I’ve read every single manual on the Internet and I still don’t understand what the difference is. I’ve also used both settings and don’t see much difference. When I use dry, the room cools off, but the machine will shut down and turn back on which I find very annoying. When I use cool the room, the room will cool but the machine stays on.
It’s currently nighttime with the 70° temperature outside in the 71% humidity. WWYD right now, for example?

The difference between the two is that the “Cool” function will run the AC unit until a temperature is reached (to the limit of its capacity), while the “Dry” function will run it intermittently to pull moisture out of the air regardless of temperature.
Unless you find yourself in a position where you do not want to reduce the temperature of the room, but you do want to reduce the humidity, you should run it in “Cool”, which will incidentally dry the air as well.
If it helps, think of the functions as “Cool and Dry” and “Dry only”.
