OPERATION TIPS
5. A peculiar smell comes out from the indoor unit.
This is caused by the indoor unit giving off smells permeated from
building material, from furniture, or smoke.
6. The air conditioner turns to FAN only mode from COOL or HEAT (for
cooling and heating models only) mode.
When indoor temperature reaches the temperature setting on air
conditioner, 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 (For cooling and heating models only) to the set point.
7. Dripping water may generate on the surface of the indoor unit when cooling
in a high relatively humidity (relative humidity higher than 80%). Adjust the
horizontal louver to the maximum air outlet position and select HIGH fan
speed.
8. 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 operation. 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 can't be achieved by
the air conditioner, we suggest you use a supplementary heating device.
9. Auto-restart function
Power failure during operation will stop the unit completely. For the unit
without Auto-restart feature, when the power restores, the OPERATION
indicator on the indoor unit starts flashing. To restart the operation, push the
ON/OFF button on the remote controller. For the unit with Auto-restart feature,
when the power restores, the unit restarts automatically with all the previous
settings preserved by the memory function.
10. Lightning or a wireless telephone operating nearby may cause the unit to
malfunction. Disconnect the unit with power and then re-connect the unit with
power again. Push the ON/OFF button on the remote controller to restart
operation.
11. Outdoor low temperature protection (on some models)
Protection can be activated only in HEATING mode. The unit will stop
operating and display on the indoor unit will show 'P3' when outdoor
temperature is lower than -15°C for one hour. The unit will restart
automatically with all previous settings:
When outdoor temperature is higher than -12°C for 10 minutes and
compressor was not running for one hour.
When outdoor temperature is higher than 5°C for more than 10
minutes.
