NOTE

  • This air conditioner is designed to be operated under the following conditions:

Cooling operation| Outdoor temp.| 18-(43/26)°C /64-(109/79)°F (18-52°C/64-125° Ffor special tropical models)
---|---|---
Indoor temp.| 17-(32/23)°C/62-(90/73)° F
Heating operation| Outdoor temp.| -5-(24/18)°C/23-(76/64)° F
Indoor temp.| 0-(27/19)°C/32-(80/66) °F

N o te: (43/26) °C. It means the dry bulb temperature is 43°C and the wet bulb temperature is 26°C

Note: Performance may be reduced outside of these operating temperatures.

Operation of Current Device
The power supply cord contains a current device that senses damage to the power cord. To test your power supply cord do the following:

  • Plug in the Air Conditioner.
  • The power supply cord will have TWO buttons on the plug head. Press the TEST button, you will notice a click as the RESET button pops out.
  • Press the RESET button again, you will notice a click as the button engages.
  • The power supply cord is now supplying electricity to the unit. (On some products this is also indicated by a light on the plug head).

NOTE

  • The power supply cord with this air conditioner contains a current detection device designed to reduce the risk of fire. If the power cord is damaged, it cannot be repaired – it must be replaced with a cord from the product manufacturer.
  • Do not use this device to turn the unit on or off.
  • Always make sure the RESET button is pushed in for correct operation.
  • The power supply cord must be replaced if it fails to reset when either the TEST button is pushed or if it cannot be reset. A new one can be obtained from the product manufacturer.
  • If the power supply cord is damaged, it cannot be repaired. It MUST be replaced by one obtained from the product manufacturer.

Grounding type wall receptacle

  • Power supply cord with 3-prong grounding plug and current detection device.

Electrical Information
The complete electrical rating of your new room air conditioner is stated on the serial plate. Refer to the rating when checking the electrical requirements.

WALL THERMOSTAT TERMINAL (Optional)

IMPORTANT
Only trained, qualified personnel should access the electrical panel on unit and install electrical accessories. Please contact your local electrical contractor, dealer, or distributor for assistance.

Thermostat Wire Routing

The thermostat wire is field-supplied. The recommended wire gauge is 18 to 20-gauge solid thermostat wire.
NOTE: It is recommended that extra wires are run to unit in case any are damaged during installation.The thermostat wire should always be routed around or under, NEVER through, the wall sleeve.
The wire should then be routed behind the front panel to the easily accessible terminal connector.

NOTE: Refer to thermostat installation instructions for details on installing wall thermostats.

Installation instruction of some types of wall Thermostat (you can Consult with the sales agency or manufacturer for details)

  • Pull the dip switch to the DOWN(OFF) position as shown below.
  • Insert the wire connector of the wall thermostat into the relevant terminal according to different shapes as shown above.

CAUTION
UNIT DAMAGE HAZARD

  • Failure to follow this caution may result in equipment damage or improper operation.
  • Improper wiring may damage unit electronics. Common busing is not permitted. Damage or erratic operation may result.

WALL THERMOSTAT WIRING EXAMPLES

NOTE

  • Use terminal 4-way for heat pump connection only.
  • Suggest set the compressor protection time to more than 3 minutes in. If set for less than 3 minutes, the compressor will restart-delay 3 minutes still.
  • Wall thermostat must be heating changeover 4-way valve.
  • For thermostats that have only one fan speed output (on or auto), the fan speed is determined by how the terminal connector is wired. If a Low fan is desired, wire the G output from the thermostat to (LOW-FAN) on the unit’s terminal block.
  • If High fan is desired, wire the G output from the themostat to (HI-FAN) on the unit’s terminal block.
  • The range of set temperature of the Wall thermostat must agree with the range of DIP switch setting.
  • Wall thermostats must be set the type properly in consonance with the unit type: heat pump or no heat pump.
  • If the has only one electrical heater output, connect the two terminals of HEAT 1 and HEAT 2, the unit can operate two electrical heaters (only for the unit has two electrical heaters). Otherwise, operate one electrical heater.
  • Please do not remove the control panel.

FRONT DESK CONTROL
The controller can handle a switch signal from FC(L) and FC(N) input, called front desk control. Input must be 24VAC. If the system doesn’t receive a 24VAC signal, it will turn unit off; otherwise, the unit runs in normal control.
The DIP switch can control the FRONT DESK CONTROL feature. The DIP switch is on the DOWN position, the unit will be turned off; otherwise, the unit runs in normal control. See FigB.

OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS

Control Panel

NOTE

  • The control panel keypad will look like the following Fig.1. For some models with REMOTE SIGNAL RECEPTOR, the unit can be controlled by the control panel alone or by the remote. NOTE: Some models have no REMOTE SIGNAL RECEPTOR.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

CAUTION
UNIT DAMAGE HAZARD Failure to follow this caution may result in equipment damage or improper operation. Airflow restrictions may cause damage to the unit.

FRONT PANEL AND CASE

  • Turn unit off and disconnect power supply. To clean, use water and a mild detergent. use bleach and abrasivers.Some commercial cleaners may damage the plastic parts.

OUTDOOR COIL

  • Coil on outdoor side of unit should be checked regularly.Unit will need to be removed to inspect dirt build-up that will occur on the inside of the coil. If clogged with dirt and soot ,coil should be professionally cleaned.Clean inside and outside of outdoor coils regularly.

NOTE: Never use a high-pressure spray on coil.

CAUTION
Failure to follow this caution may result in equipment damge or improper operation.
Do not operate unit without filters in place.If a filter becomes torn or damaged, it should be replaced immediately.
Operating without filters in place or with damaged filter will allow dirt and dust to reach indoor coil and reduce cooling, heating,airflow and effciency of unit. Airflow restriction may cause damage to unit.

  • The most important thing you can do to maintain unit eciency is to clean the filters once every two weeks as required. Clogged filters reduce cooling,heating and airflow.
  • Keeping filters clean will:
  • Decrease cost of operation.
  • Save energy.
  • Prevent clogged indoor coil.
  • Reduce risk of premature component failure.

To Clean Air Filters

  • Vacuum off heavy soil. Run water through filter. Dry thoroughly before replacing.

VENT DOOR FILTER:
IMPORTANT:TURN UNIT OFF BEFORE CLEANING.

  • If the vent door is open,access requires the removal of the unit from the wall sleeve.Clean the vent filter twice a year or as required.
  • Make sure to remove the shipping screw from the vent door.(See.Fig.8)
  • Rotate the vent control lever to open the vent door. (See. Fig.15)
  • Remove four screws from the vent door filter. (See.Fig.15)
  • First pull out the vent door steel wire from the hole of the vent door, then take off the vent door and filter. (See.Fig.15)
  • Clean the filter.Dry thoroughly before replacing.
  • Replac the vent door and filter,reinstall the four screws.
  • Reinsert the vent door steel wire into the hole of the vent door.
