WHEN YOU THINK THAT TROUBLE HAS OCCURRED

Even if these items are checked, when the unit does not recover from the trouble, stop using the air conditioner and consult your dealer.

Indoor Unit
The unit cannot be operated.|

• Is the breaker turned on?
• Is the power supply plug connected?
• Is the ON timer set? ( Check above )

The horizontal vane does not move.|

• Are the horizontal vane and the vertical vane installed correctly
• Is the fan guard deformed?
• When the breaker is turned on, the horizontal vanes’ position will be reset in about a minute. After the reset has completed, the normal horizontal vanes’ operation resumes. The same is true in the emergency cooling operation.

The unit cannot be operated for about 3 minutes when restarted.|

• This protects the unit according to instructions from the microprocessor. Please wait.

Mist is discharged from the air outlet of the indoor unit.|

• The cool air from the unit rapidly cools moisture in the air inside the room, and it turns into mist.

The swing operation of the HORI- ZONTAL VANE is suspended for a while, then restarted.|

• This is for the swing operation of the HORIZON- TAL VANE to be performed normally.

When SWING is selected in COOL/DRY/FAN mode, the lower horizontal vane does not move.|

• It is normal that the lower horizontal vane does not move when SWING is selected in COOL/ DRY/FAN mode.

The airflow direction changes during operation.

The direction of the horizontal vane cannot be adjusted with the remote controller.

|

• When the unit is operated in COOL or DRY mode, if the operation continues with air blowing down for 0.5 to 1 hour, the direction of the airflow is automatically set to upward position to prevent water from condensing and dripping.
• In the heating operation, if the airflow temperature is too low or when defrosting is being done, the horizontal vane is automatically set to horizontal position.

The operation stops for about 10 minutes in the heating operation.|

• Outdoor unit is in defrost.
  Since this is completed in max. 10 minutes, please wait. (When the outside temperature is too low and humidity is too high, frost is formed.)

The unit starts operation by itself when the main power is turned on, but hasn’t received sign from the remote controller.|

• These models are equipped with an auto restart function. When the main power is turned off without stopping the unit with the remote controller and is turned on again, the unit starts operation automatically in the same mode as the one set with the remote controller just before the shutoff of the main power.
  Refer to “Auto restart function”. ( Check down below )

The two horizontal vanes touch each other. The horizontal vanes are in an abnormal position. The horizontal vanes do not return to the correct “close position”.| Perform one of the following:

• Turn off and on the breaker. Make sure the horizontal vanes move to the correct “close position”.
• Start and stop the emergency cooling operation and make sure the horizontal vanes move to the correct “close position”.

In COOL/DRY mode, when the room temperature reaches near the set temperature, the outdoor unit stops, then the indoor unit operates at low speed.|

• When the room temperature deviates from the set temperature, the indoor fan starts running according to the settings on the remote controller.

The indoor unit discolors over time.|

• Although plastic turns yellow due to the influence of some factors such as ultraviolet light and temperature, this has no effect on the product functions.

The operation indicator lamp is dim. The unit does not beep.|

• Is the NIGHT MODE operation set?

Multi system
The indoor unit which is not operating becomes warm and a sound, similar to water flowing, is heard from the unit.|

• A small amount of refrigerant continues to flow into the indoor unit even though it is not operating.

When heating operation is selected, operation does not start right away.|

• When operation is started during defrosting of outdoor unit is done, it takes a few minutes (max. 10 minutes) to blow out warm air.

Outdoor Unit
The fan of the outdoor unit does not rotate even though the com- pressor is running. Even if the fan starts to rotate, it stops soon.|

• When the outside temperature is low during cooling operation, the fan operates intermittently to maintain sufficient cooling capacity.

Water leaks from the outdoor unit.|

• During COOL and DRY operations, pipe or pipe connecting sections are cooled and this causes water to condense.
• In the heating operation, water condensed on the heat exchanger drips down.
• In the heating operation, the defrosting operation makes ice forming on the outdoor unit melt and drip down.

White smoke is discharged from the outdoor unit.|

• In the heating operation, vapor generated by the defrosting operation looks like white smoke.

Remote controller
The display on the remote controller does not appear or it is dim. The indoor unit does not respond to the remote control signal.|

• Are the batteries exhausted? ( Check above )
• Is the polarity (+, -) of the batteries correct? ( Check above)
• Are any buttons on the remote controller of other electric appliances being pressed?

The operation mode cannot be changed.|

• Disable the OPERATION LOCK.

Does not cool or heat
The room cannot be cooled or heated sufficiently.|

• Is the temperature setting appropriate? ( Check above )
• Is the fan setting appropriate? Please change fan speed to High or Super High. ( Check above )
• Are the filters clean? ( Check above )
• Is the fan or heat exchanger of the indoor unit clean? ( Check above )
• Are there any obstacles blocking the air inlet or outlet of the indoor or outdoor unit?
• Is a window or door open?
• It may take a certain time to reach the setting temperature or may not reach that depending on the size of the room, the ambient temperature, and the like.
• Is the NIGHT MODE operation set?

The room cannot be cooled sufficiently.|

• When a ventilation fan or a gas cooker is used in a room, the cooling load increases, resulting in an insufficient cooling effect.
• When the outside temperature is high, the cooling effect may not be sufficient.

The room cannot be heated sufficiently.|

• When the outside temperature is low, the heating effect may not be sufficient.

Air does not blow out soon in the heating operation.|

• Please wait as the unit is preparing to blow out warm air.

Airflow
The air from the indoor unit smells strange.|

• Are the filters clean? ( Check above )
• Is the fan or heat exchanger of the indoor unit clean? ( Check above )
• The unit may suck in an odor adhering to the wall, carpet, furniture, cloth, etc. and blow it out with the air.

Sound
Cracking sound is heard.|

• This sound is generated by the expansion/con- traction of the front panel, etc. due to change in temperature.

“Burbling” sound is heard.|

• This sound is heard when the outside air is absorbed from the drain hose by turning on the range hood or the ventilation fan, making water flowing in the drain hose to spout out.
  This sound is also heard when the outside air blows into the drain hose in case the outside wind is strong.

Mechanical sound is heard from the indoor unit.|

• This is the switching sound in turning on/off the fan or the compressor.

The sound of water flowing is heard.|

• This is the sound of refrigerant or condensed water flowing in the unit.

Hissing sound is sometimes heard.|

• •This is the sound when the flow of refrigerant inside the unit is changed.

Timer
Weekly timer does not operate according to settings.|

• Is the ON/OFF timer set? ( Check above )
• Transmit the setting information of the weekly timer to the indoor unit again. When the information is successfully received, a long beep will sound from the indoor unit. If information fails to be received, 3 short beeps will be heard. Ensure information is successfully received. ( Check above )
• When a power failure occurs and the main power turns off, the indoor unit built-in clock will be incorrect. As a result, the weekly timer may not work normally.
  Be sure to place the remote controller where the signal can be received by the indoor unit.( Check above )

The unit starts/stops the operation by itself.|

• Is the weekly timer set? ( Check above )

In the following cases, stop using the air conditioner and consult your dealer.

• When water leaks or drips from the indoor unit.
• When the operation indicator lamp blinks.
• When the breaker trips frequently.
• The remote control signal is not received in a room where an electronic ON/ OFF type fluorescent lamp (inverter-type fluorescent lamp, etc.) is used.
• Operation of the air conditioner interferes with radio or TV reception. An amplifier may be required for the affected device.
• When an abnormal sound is heard.
• When any refrigerant leakage is found.

EMERGENCY OPERATION

When the remote controller cannot be used…

Emergency operation can be activated by pressing the emergency operation switch (E.O. SW) on the indoor unit.

Each time the E.O. SW is pressed, the operation changes in the following order:

Set temperature : 24°C
Fan speed : Medium
Horizontal vane : Auto

Note:

• The first 30 minutes of operation is test run. Temperature control does not  wok, and fan speed is set to High.
• In the emergency heating operation, the fan speed gradually rises to blow out warm air.
• In the emergency cooling operation, the horizontal vanes’ position will be reset in about a minute, then the operation will start.

AUTO RESTART FUNCTION

If a power failure occurs or the main power is turned off during operation, “Auto restart function” automatically starts operation in the same mode as the one set with the remote controller just before the shutoff of the main power. When timer is set, timer setting is cancelled and the unit starts operation when power is resumed.
If you do not want to use this function, please consult the service representative because the setting of the unit needs to be changed.

WHEN THE AIR CONDITIONER IS NOT GOING TO BE USED FOR A LONG TIME

1. Operate by COOL mode with the highest temperature set or FAN mode for 3 to 4 hours. ( Check above )
   • This dries the inside of the unit.
   • Moisture in the air conditioner contributes to favorable conditions for growth of fungi, such as mold.

2. Press to stop the operation

3. Turn off the breaker and/or disconnect the power supply plug.

4. Remove all batteries from the remote controller.
