Usage Features:
- Default Setting: After a power failure, the unit restarts with factory settings (AUTO mode, AUTO fan, 24°C (76°F)). The remote control can be used to update the status.
- Auto-Restart (some models): If equipped, the unit will restart with the same settings after a power failure.
- Louver Angle Memory Function (Optional): Some models remember the horizontal louver angle after a power failure. The louver angle should not be set too small to prevent condensation. The manual button can reset the louver.
- Refrigerant Leak Detection System (some models): If a refrigerant leak is detected, the LCD screen will display "EC" and the LED indicator light will flash.
- Manual Operations: The indoor unit has a display panel with a "MANUAL" button to select modes (AUTO, FORCED COOL, OFF) in case the remote control is unavailable.
- FORCED COOL mode: The Operation light flashes, and the system cools at high wind speed for 30 minutes before switching to AUTO. The remote control is disabled during this.
- OFF mode: Turns off the unit and re-enables the remote control.
Maintenance Features:
- Unit Maintenance:
- Always turn off the system and disconnect power before cleaning.
