•  Various smells from the walls, carpet, clothes, cigarettes, cosmetics or other things adhere to the air conditioner.

•  The unit does not run.| •  Has a blackout occurred?

•  Has the circuit breaker blown?

•  Has the protective device been activated? (The operation indicator and the remote controller are blinking.)

Check again.| The room does not cool down.| •  Is the air intake or discharge of the outdoor unit clogged?

•  Is a door or window open?

•  Is the air filter clogged with dust?

•  Is the air volume set to “LOW”? Or is the operation mode set to “FAN”?

•  Is the setup temperature appropriate?

If there is something unusual even after checking the above, stop running the unit, turn off the circuit breaker, and inform the dealer where you purchased the product of the product number and symptom. Do not attempt to repair the unit by yourself as doing so is dangerous. If the check indicator (e.g. ) is displayed on the remote controller LCD, inform the dealer of its content as well. If any of the following occur, stop running the unit immediately, turn off the circuit breaker, and contact the dealer where you purchased the product.
