How To Use Advanced Function
06.01. SWING Function
Setting the vertical angle of airflow
While the unit is on, use the button to set the direction (vertical angle) of
airflow.
- Press the button to activate the louver. The vertical louver will swing up and down automatically.
- Press it again to stop the automatic function.
NOTE
Continue pressing the button will adjust the vertical airflow angle in five

the louver blade, which may drop on your floor or furnishings. See Fig. 1
When using COOL or HEAT mode, setting the vertical louver to the minimum angle
can reduce the performance of the unit due to the restricted airflow.
Do not move the louver by hand. This will cause the louver to become out of
sync. If this occurs, reset the main power supply isolator of the air
conditioning to restart the unit. This will reset the louver.

NOTES
Pressing the button or changing the mode or adjusting the set temperature to
less than 24 o C will cancel ECO Operation.
Once ECO is activated Fan can be adjusted and ECO will be displayed on the
LED.
GEAR Function

conditioner if the end user desires a reduction in their overall system energy
usage.
This will impact performance in some conditions.
Press the button to enter the following:
75%(up to 75% electrical energy consumption)
50%(up to 50% electrical energy consumption)
Previous setting mode.
06.08. Proximity Sensor
