Understanding your air conditioner’s automatic protection
Anti-freezing protection - When the ambient temperature is very low
under Cooling Mode, Dry mode, and Energy Saver mode, the compressor
and motor will stop working for about seven minutes if the coil
temperature is below 0°C/32°F. When the coil temperature increases to
above 0°C/32°F, the protection turns off and the previous mode resumes.
Water-full protection - When the water level in the bottom water pan
exceeds the warning level, the unit will alert automatically, “FL” and
“Water Full” will flashes on LCD. Turn off the air conditioner and drain the
water as described in “Emptying the water collection tank” on page 25.
After you have drained the water, restart your air conditioner.
Auto defrosting - This air conditioner has an auto defrosting function.
When the auto defrost is active, “Heat” will light on the LCD.
Auto Thermal protection - To protect air conditioner, it is equipped with
auto thermal protection under the Heat mode. When the auto thermal
protection is activated, the compressor and motor turn off. When the air
conditioner resumes normal operating temperature, the air conditioner
will turn back on.
Compressor delay protection - Except for the first power-on, the
compressor can start instantly. In other cases, the compressor will start
after three minutes delay protection.
The air conditioner is
freezing up
The cooling coils are iced over. Ice may block the air flow and obstruct the air conditioner from
properly cooling the room. Set the mode control to High Fan or
High Cool.
The air conditioner runs
too often or too long
The area to be cooled is too
large for the air conditioner.
Consult your Insignia technician for the air conditioner capacity
required to cool the desired area.
Doors or windows are open. Make sure that doors and windows are closed.
The venting hose is hot When the air conditioner runs
continuously for a long time,
the hose becomes hot.
This is normal.
The air conditioner is
too loud
The unit may seem rather loud
for the first two or three
minutes of operation.
This is the sound of the compressor starting up and is normal.
A soft, swishing noise can be
heard immediately after
turning the unit on or off, and
during operation.
This is the sound of the liquid refrigerant flowing in the unit and
is normal.
The air conditioner
makes an odd noise
An audible gurgling noise may
be heard when the unit is
operated on a gently sloping
floor.
Place the unit on a level floor.
