5. The drainpipe (Connect with pump)
6. Drain pipe
7. Air outlet

Remote Controller (Optional)
You can control the air conditioner with the wired controller or remote controller. It is used for power ON/OFF, setting the operation mode, temperature, fan speed, etc. There are different types of remote controllers that can be used. Operation instruction will be further specified in the remote controller’s manual. Please read it carefully before using this appliance and keep it for future reference.

Note: The figures are based on the external views of the standard model. Consequently, the shape may differ for the air conditioner model you have selected.

Special Remarks

• 3-minute protection after compressor stop
  To protect the compressor, it will be off continuously for at least 3 minutes once it has stopped.

• 5-minute protection
  The compressor must run for at least 5 minutes once it has operated. During the 5 minutes, the compressor will not stop even if the room temperature reaches the set temperature point unless you use a remote controller to turn off the unit (all indoor units can be turned off by the user).

• Cooling operation
  The fan of the indoor unit will never stop running in cooling operation. It continues to operate even if the compressor stops working.

• Heating operation
  Heating capacity depends on external factors like outdoor unit temperature. Heating capacity might decrease if the outdoor ambient temperature is too low.

• Anti-freezing function during cooling When the temperature of the air from the indoor outlet is too low, the unit will run for some time under the ventilating mode, to avoid frost or ice forming on the indoor heat exchanger.

• Cold air prevention
  Several minutes after the heating mode is started, the fan of the indoor unit will not run until the heat exchanger of the indoor unit reaches a certain temperature to prevent a cold draft.

• Defrosting
  When the outdoor temperature is too low, frost or ice may form on the outdoor heat exchanger, reducing heating performance. When this happens, the defrosting system of the air conditioner will operate. At the same time, the fan in the indoor unit stops (or runs at a very low speed in some cases), to prevent cold draft. After defrosting is over, the heating operation and the fan speed resume.

• Blowing out the residual heating air
  When stopping the air conditioner in normal operation, the fan motor will run at low speed for a while to blow out the residual heating air

• Auto restart from power break
  When the power supply is recovered after the power break, all presets are still effective and the air conditioner will run according to the previous setting.

Trouble Shooting

CAUTION
If the trouble still exists even after checking the following, contact your dealer and inform them of the following items.

1. If Trouble still exists
   (1) Unit Model Name
   (2) Content of Trouble

2. No Operation Check whether the SET TEMP is set at the correct temperature.

3. Not Cooling or Heating Properly

• Check for obstruction of airflow in outdoor or indoor units.
• Check if there are too many heating sources in the room.
• Check if the air filter is clogged with dust.
• Check if the doors or windows are open.
• Check if the temperature condition is within the operation range.

4. This is Not Abnormal

• The odor from Indoor
  Unit Unpleasant odor diffuses from the indoor unit after a long period of time. Clean the air filter and panels or allow good ventilation.

• Sound from Deforming Parts
  During the system starting or stopping, a sound might be heard. However, this is due to the thermal deformation of plastic parts. It is not abnormal.

• Steam from Outdoor
  Heat Exchanger During defrosting operation, ice on the outdoor heat exchanger melts resulting in steam.

• Dew on Air Panel
  When the cooling operation continues for a long period of time under high humidity conditions, dew can form on the air panel.

• Refrigerant Flow Sound
  While the system is being started or stopped, the refrigerant flow sound may be heard.

5. Mode Interfere (Only for multi-split, 9K-24K)
For the reason that all indoor units use one outdoor unit, the outdoor unit can only run with the same model (cooling or heating), so, when the mode you set is different from the mode that outdoor is running with, mode interference occurs. The following shows the mode interference scene.

The outdoor unit always run with the mode of first indoor unit that turned on. When the setting mode of the following indoor unit interferes with it, 3 beeps would be heard, and the indoor unit interfered with the normal running units would turn off automatically.
