Your BONAIRE unit may not allow you to select "Cool Only" mode if it is a ducted reverse cycle system. The manual states that "COOL FRESH AIR" and "FRESH AIR" modes are not used for Bonaire Ducted Reverse Cycle systems. If your unit falls under this category, it may automatically switch between heating and cooling based on the set temperature, rather than allowing manual selection of "Cool Only" mode.
