NOTE : For multi-split type air conditioners, one outdoor unit can be matched to different types of indoor units. All of the pictures in this manual are for demonstration purposes only. Your air conditioner may be slightly different, if similar in shape. The following pages introduce several kinds of indoor units that can be matched with the outdoor units.

Operating Conditions

Operating temperature
When your air conditioner is used outside of the following temperature ranges, certain safety protection features may activate and cause the unit to disable.

FOR OUTDOOR UNITS WITH AUXILIARY ELECTRIC HEATER
When outside temperature is below 0°C (32°F ), we strongly recommend keeping the unit plugged in at all time to ensure smooth ongoing performance.

NOTE : Room relative humidity less than 80%. If the air conditioner operates in excess of this figure, the surface of the air conditioner may attract condensation. Please sets the vertical air flow louver to its maximum angle (vertically to the floor), and set HIGH fan mode.

Keep doors and windows closed.
Limit energy usage by using TIMER ON and TIMER OFF functions.
Do not block air inlets or outlets.
Regularly inspect and clean air filters.

Features

Protection of the air conditioner
Compressor protection

The compressor cannot restart for 3 minutes after it stops.

Anti-cold air (Cooling and heating models only)

The unit is designed not to blow cold air on HEAT mode, when the indoor heat exchanger is in one of the following three situations and the set temperature has not been reached.
A) When heating has just started.
B) During defrosting.
C) Low temperature heating.
The indoor or outdoor fan stop running when defrosing (Cooling and heating models only).

Defrosting (Cooling and heating models only)

Frost may be generated on the outdoor unit during a heat cycle when outdoor temperature is low and humidity is high resulting in lower heating efficiency in the air conditioner.
Under these conditions, the air conditioner will stop heating operations and start defrosting automatically.
The time to defrost may vary from 4 to 10 minutes, depending the outdoor temperature and the amount of frost buildup on the outdoor unit.

Auto-Restart (some models)
In case of power failure, the system will immediately stop. When power returns, the Operation light on the indoor unit will flash. To restart the unit, press the ON/OFF button on the remote control. If the system has an auto restart function, the unit will restart using the same settings.

White mist emerging from the indoor unit

A white mist may be generated due to a large temperature difference between air inlet and air outlet on COOL mode in places with high relative humidity.
A white mist may be generated due to moisture created in the defrosting process when the air conditioner restarts in HEAT mode operation after defrosting.

Noise coming from the air conditioner

You may hear a low hissing sound when the compressor is running or has just stopped running. This sound is the sound of the refrigerant flowing or coming to a stop.
You may also hear a low “squeaking” sound when the compressor is running or has just stopped running. This is caused by tempera heat expansion and cold contraction of the plastic parts in the unit when the temperature is changing.
A noise may be heard due to the louver restoring itself to its original position when power is first turned on.

Dust blowing out from the indoor unit.

This is happens when the air conditioner has not been used for a long time or during its first use.

Smell emitting from the indoor unit.

This is caused by the indoor unit giving off smells permeated from building materials, furniture, or smoke.

The air conditioner turns to FAN ONLY mode from COOL or HEAT (for cooling and heating models only) mode.

When the indoor temperature reaches the set temperature setting, the compressor will stop automatically, and the air conditioner turns to FAN only mode. The compressor will start again when the indoor temperature rises on COOL mode or falls on HEAT mode to the set point.

Droplets of water may form on the surface of the indoor unit when cooling occurs in relatively high humidity (defined as higher than 80%).
Adjust the horizontal louver to the maximum air outlet position and select HIGH fan speed.

Heating mode (For cooling and heating models only)

The air conditioner draws in heat from the outdoor unit and releases it via the indoor unit during heating. When the outdoor temperature falls, heat drawn in by the air conditioner decreases accordingly. At the same time, heat loading of the air conditioner increases due to larger difference between indoor and outdoor temperature. If a comfortable temperature cannot be achieved with the air conditioner alone, it is recommended that you use a supplementary heating device.

Lightning or a car wireless telephone operating nearby may cause the unit to malfunction. Disconnect the unit from its power source and then re-connect the unit with the power source again. Push the ON/OFF button on the remote controller to restart operations.

Energy Saving Tips

DO NOT set the unit to excessive temperature levels.
While cooling, close the curtains to avoid direct sunlight.
Doors and windows should be kept closed to keep cool or warm air in the room.
DO NOT place objects near the air inlet and outlet of the unit. This will reduce the efficiency of the unit.
Set a timer and use the built-in SLEEP/ECONOMY mode if applicable.
If you don’t plan to use the unit for a long time, remove the batteries from the remote control.
Clean the air filter every two weeks. A dirty filter can reduce cooling or heating efficiency.
Adjust louvers properly and avoid direct airflow.

Manual Operations And Maintenance

Operation mode selection

While two or more indoor units are simultaneously operating, make sure the modes do not conflict with each other. The heat mode claims precedence over all other modes. If the unit initially started to operate in HEAT mode, the other units can operate in HEAT mode only. For example: If the unit initially started operates under COOL (or FAN) mode, the other units can operate under any mode except HEAT. If one of the unit selects HEAT mode, the other operating units will stop operation and display “–” (for units with display window only) or the auto and operation indication light will flash rapidly, the defrost indication light will turn off, and the timer indication light will remain on (for units without a display window). Alternatively, the defrost and alarm indication light (if applicable) will ight up, or the operation indication light will flash rapidly, and the timer indication light will turn off ( for the floor and standing type).

Maintenance

If you plan to leave the unit idle for a long time, perform the following tasks:

Clean the indoor unit and air filter.
Select FAN ONLY mode and let the indoor fan run for a time to dry the inside of the unit.
Disconnect the power supply and remove the battery from the remote control.
Check components of the outdoor unit periodically. Contact a local dealer or a customer service center if the unit requires servicing.

NOTE : Before you clean the air conditioner, be sure to switch off the unit and disconnect the power supply plug.

Optimal operation

To achieve optimal performance, please note the following:

Adjust the direction of the air flow so that it is not blowing directly on people.
Adjust the temperature to achieve the highest possible level of comfort. Do not adjust the unit to excessive temperature levels.
Close doors and windows in COOL mode or HEAT mode.
Use the TIMER ON button on the remote controller to select a time you want to start your air conditioner.
Do not place any object near the air inlet or air outlet, as the efficiency of the air conditioner may be reduced and the air conditioner may stop running.
Clean the air filter periodically, otherwise cooling or heating performance may be reduced.
Do not operate unit with horizontal louvre in closed position.

Suggestion:
For units that feature an electric heater, when the outside ambient temperature is below 0°C (32°F), it is strongly recommended that you to keep the machine plugged in so as to guarantee smooth operation.

When the air conditioner is to be used again:

Use a dry cloth to wipe off the dust accumulated on the rear air intake grille in order to avoid the dust being dispersed from the indoor unit.
Check that the wiring is not broken off or disconnected.
Check that the air filter is installed.
Check if the air outlet or inlet is blocked after the air conditioner has not been used for a long time.

Troubleshooting

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

If any of the following conditions occurs, turn off your unit immediately!

You smell a burning odor
The unit emits loud or abnormal sounds
A power fuse blows or the circuit breaker frequently trips
