  • When outdoor temperature is very low with high humidity, frost may form on the outdoor unit during the heating operation, and it could reduce the operating performance of the product.
  • For frost protection, a microcomputer-controlled automatic defrost function is equipped in this air conditioner.
  • If frost forms, the air conditioner will temporarily stop, and defrost circuit will operate briefl y (maximum of 15 minutes.) OPERATION indicator on the indoor unit blinks during this operation.
  • If frost forms on the outdoor unit after the heating operation, the outdoor unit will stop automatically after it operates for a few minutes. Then the automatic defrosting operation starts.

Auto-restart function

  • In event of power interruption such as a blackout, the air conditioner stops once. But it restarts automatically and performs previous operation when the power supply is resumed.
  • If any power interruption occurs after the timer is set, counting down of the timer will be reset.
  • After the power supply is resumed, the TIMER indicator on the indoor unit blinks to notify you that there has been a timer fault. In such a case, reset the timer for your opportune time.

Multi-type air conditioner

  • This indoor unit can be connected to a multi-type outdoor unit, and used as a multi-type air conditioner that allows multiple indoor units to be operated in multiple locations.
  • The indoor units may be operated simultaneously, in accor-dance with their respective output.

Simultaneous use of multiple indoor units

  • If 2 or more indoor units are operated simultaneously, the heating and cooling efficiency will be less than the efficiency in single use of the indoor unit.
    • Combined use of other auxiliary heating or cooling apparatus is recommended.
  • Following combinations cannot be performed when multiple indoor units are operated:
    • HEAT mode and COOL mode (or DRY mode)
      • HEAT mode and FAN mode
      • The indoor unit operated afterward stops, and the OPERATION indicator flashes.
  • The operating mode (HEAT, COOL, and DRY) of the outdoor unit is determined by the operating mode of the indoor unit that is operated first. If the indoor unit is started in FAN mode, the operating mode of the outdoor unit cannot be determined.
    • For example, if indoor unit (A) is started in FAN mode and then indoor unit (B) is operated in HEAT mode, indoor unit (A) will temporarily start operation in FAN mode but when indoor unit (B) started operation in HEAT mode, the OPERATION indicator (green) on the indoor unit (A) will begin to blink (1 second on, 1 second off) and go into standby mode. Indoor unit (B) will continue to operate in HEAT mode.
  • In HEAT mode, the top of the indoor unit may become warm by emitted heat of circulated coolant through the indoor unit, even if the unit operation is stopped. This is not a malfunction.
