Working temperature range

Function

Introduction

Window type room air conditioners can regulate the room temperature and dry the room. It is convenient for your work,study and life. It can be widely used in residence, shop, hotel, office, library and laboratory, and so on.

Cooling in summer

In hot summer, Air conditioner can cool down the room air by transferring heat out.

Dehumidifying in rainy or humid season

Without reducing the room temp., air conditioner can dehumidify and make the room air dry and comfortable.

Exchange fresh air

(Only for the models with fresh air function) Open ventilation lever to keep the fresh air in the room.

Operating Condition

Please operate air conditioner in the correct conditions as follows.

COOL mode operation

The outdoor temperature should be in the range of 18 to 43 , otherwise, it is possible for air conditioner to break down. Room humidity should be lower than 90%. Otherwise, it is possible for air conditioner to dew at air conditioner surface and even drop water after running for so much time. But this is normal.

DRY mode operation

The outdoor temperature should be in range of 18 to 43 , otherwise, it is possible for air conditioner to break down.

Power requirement

The electric components will be damaged when the voltage is too high. If the voltage is too low, the compressor will vibrate violently to dam-age the refrigerant system and easily cause the compressor and electric components not to work.
The ground must be connected. A special socket must be used. Furthermore, the socket and wiring must conform to the wiring regulations. And the earthing method must be reliable. In fixed circuit, there must be electricity leakage protection switch of enough power capacity and air switch with enough space.

Earth wire To ensure the reliable earthing, please do not connect earth wire to the following places:

Installation

Installation precaution:

Window type conditioner is so valuable and the improper installa-tion of it will cause a lot of damage! Please associate the profes-sional technician to install the unit and don’t install it by yourself. Otherwise, we are not responsible for the damage like this.

Operation Tips

Operation for comfort and economy

Do not overcool the room temperature. This is not good for health and wastes electricity.
Keep blind or curtains closed. Do not let sunshine enter the room directly when the air conditioner is in operation.
Keep the room temp. uniform. Adjust the vertical and horizontal airflow direction to ensure a uniform temperature in the room. Air can’t be discharged to the direction of air-in.
Make sure that the doors and windows are tightly closed. Avoid opening doors and windows as much as possible to keep air conditioning in the room.
Clean the air filter regularly. Blockages in the air filter reduce dehumidifying effects. Clean the air filter at least once every two weeks.
Ventilate the room occasionally.Since windows are kept closed, it is a good idea to open them and ventilate the room now and then. When starting the unit, curtains or windows should be closed to prevent cool leakage.

CAUTION
Operations for safety and health

Do not use the air conditioner for other purposes except for cooling the room.
Do not use the air conditioner for other purposes such as drying clothes, preserving foods, or cultivating vegetables.
Do not block the air intake and outlet vents This causes lowered performance and irregular operation.
Do not insert sticks or other objects into these vents as it is dangerous to touch the electric components and the fan.
Select the most appropriate temperature. Pay attention to adjust the temperature to suit the conditions. Rooms occupied by infants,the elderly, or the sick should be kept at an appropriate temperature.
Do not use heating apparatuses in the vicinity. The air conditioner’s plastic parts will melt if exposed to excessive heat.

Troubleshooting guide

Please check the following items before asking for repair,it saves your time and money.

Fault phenomenon	Trouble-shooting

Air conditioner does not operate at all.

|

* Is there a power failure?

* Is the plug out?

* Is power fuse or switch off ?

* Whether the voltage is too high or too low?

Rasonic-RC-S240H-Window-Type-Air-Conditioner-fig-41

Cool efficiency is not good.

| * Is air inlet or outlet locking?

* Is there any other heat source in room?

* Are air filters dirty very much?

Is indoor fan speed set at LOW?
Maybe the room is too hot when the unit is started.

Foggy air flows out.

| * At COOL mode operation, sometimes there is foggy air flowing out of the unit, this is because the room humid air has been cooling rapidly.

* The unit is normal while the indoor outlet is sending out some odor, because the inlet air may be mixed

with the smell of furniture and smoke.

The air conditioner opera- tion is noisy.

|

* For a noise that sounds like water flowing:

This is the sound of freon flowing inside the air con- ditioner unit.

* For a noise that sounds like a shower:

This is the sound of the dehumidifying water being processed inside the air conditioner unit.

It seems that condensation is leaking from air conditioner.

|

Condensation occurs when the airflow from the air conditioner cools the warm room air.

Air conditioner does not operate for about 3 minutes when restart.

|

* This is to protect the mechanism.

* Wait about 3 minutes and operation will begin.
