OPERATING TIPS
Operation and Performance
Heating Performance
● This air conditioner operates on the heat-pump principle,
absorbing heat from outdoor air and transferring that heat to
indoor unit. As a result, the operating performance is reduced
as outdoor air temperature drops. If you feel that insuffi cient
heating performance is being produced, we recommend you
use this air conditioner in conjunction with another kind of
heating appliance.
● Heat-pump air conditioners heat your entire room by recircu-
lating air throughout the room, with the result that some time
may be required after fi rst starting the air conditioner until the
room is heated.
Microcomputer-controlled Automatic Defrosting
● When using the Heating mode under conditions of low outdoor
temperature and high humidity, frost may form on the outdoor
unit, resulting in reduced operating performance.
In order to prevent this kind of reduced performance,
this air conditioner is equipped with a Microcomputer-
controlled Automatic Defrosting function. If frost forms, the air
conditioner will temporarily stop, and the defrosting circuit will
operate briefl y (for about 7-15 minutes).
During Automatic Defrosting operation, the OPERATION
Indicator Lamp (green) will fl ash.
● After heating operation stops, if frost forms on the outdoor
unit, the unit will start Automatic Defrosting operation. At this
time, the outdoor unit will automatically stop after operating
for a few minutes.
(However, some type of multi-type air conditioner doesn’t
provide this function.)
