Caution
•  Do not dry out the air filter under direct sunshine or with fire.
•  The  air  filter  should  be  installed  before  the  unit  body 
installation.
4.  Re-install the air filter.
5.  Install and close the air inlet grille by reversing steps 1 and 2, and 
connect the control box cables to the corresponding terminals in 
the main body.
Maintenance before stopping using the unit for a long time 
(e.g., at the end of a season)
a.  Let the indoor units run in fan only mode for about half a day to 
dry the interior of the unit.
b.  Clean the air filter and indoor unit casing.
c.  Refer to “Cleaning the air filter" for details. Install cleaned air 
filters back in their original positions.
d.  Turn  off  the  unit  with  the  ON/OFF  button  on  the  remote 
controller, and then unplug it.
Maintenance after a long period of non-use
a.  Check for and remove anything that might be blocking the inlet 
and outlet vents of the indoor units and outdoor units.
b.  Clean the unit casing and clean the filter. Refer to [Cleaning the 
filter]  and  "Cleaning  the  filter"  for  instructions.  Re-install  the 
filter before running the unit.
c.  Turn on the power at least 12 hours before you want to use the 
unit to ensure it works properly. As soon as the power is turned 
on, the remote control display appears.
14. Symptoms That Are Not Faults
The  following  symptoms  may  be  experienced  during  the  normal 
operation of the unit and are not considered faults. Note: If you are not 
sure  whether  a  fault  has occurred,  contact  your  supplier  or  service 
engineer immediately.
Symptom 1: The unit will not run
Symptom: When the ON/OFF button on the remote controller is 
pressed, the unit does not immediately start running.
Cause: to protect certain system components, system start-up or 
re-start is intentionally delayed for up to 12 
minutes under some 
operating conditions. If the OPERATION LED on the unit's panel 
is lighting, the system is working normally and the  unit will start 
after the intentional delay is complete.
Heating  mode  is  running  when  the  following  panel  lights  are 
on:operation and the DEF./FAN LED indicator.
Cause: the indoor unit activates protective measures because of 
the low outlet temperature.
Caution
•  When  the  power  switch  is  connected,  some  energy  will  be 
consumed  even  if  the  unit  is  not  running.  Disconnect  the 
power to save energy.
•  A degree of dirt will accumulate when the unit has been used 
several times, which will require cleaning.
•  Take of the batteries from the remote controller.
Symptom 2: The unit emits white mist
White  mist  is  generated  and  emitted  when  the  unit  starts  to 
operate in a very humid environment. This phenomenon will stop 
once the humidity in the room is reduced to normal levels.
The  unit  occasionally  emits  white  mist  when  it  runs  in  heating 
mode. This occurs when the system finishes periodic defrosting. 
Moisture that  may accumulate on  the unit's heat exchanger coil 
during defrosting becomes mist and is emitted from the unit.
Symptom 3: Dust is emitted from the unit
This can occur when the unit first runs after a long idle period.
Symptom 4: The unit gives off a strange odor
If smells such as those of strong-smelling food or tobacco smoke 
are  present  in  the  room,  they  can  enter  the  unit,  leave  trace 
deposits on the unit's internal components, and later be emitted 
from the unit.
15. Troubleshooting
15.1 General
Sections  15.2  and  15.3  describe  some  initial  troubleshooting 
steps that can be taken when an error occurs. If these steps do 
not  resolve  the  issue,  arrange  for  a  professional  technician  to 
investigate the problem. Do not attempt further investigations or 
troubleshooting yourself.
If any of the following errors occur, power the unit off, contact a 
professional  technician  immediately  and  do  not  attempt 
troubleshooting yourself:
a.  A  safety  device  such  as  a  fuse  or  circuit  breaker  frequently 
blows/trips.
b.  An object or water enters the unit.
c.  Water is leaking from the unit.
Caution
•  Do  not  attempt  to  inspect  or  repair  this  unit  by 
yourself. Arrange  for  a  qualified  technician  to  carry  out  all 
servicing and maintenance.
