• The built-in protective device may prevent the
unit from operating when used at higher temper-
ature than this range.
• Condensation may form on the air outlet if the
unit operates continuously in the COOL or DRY
mode when humidity is over 80 %.
WHEN POWER FAILURE OCCURS
• This air conditioner has a memory function to
store settings when a power failure occurs.
After power recovery, the unit will automatically
re-start in the same settings which were set be-
fore the power failure, except for timer settings.
• If a power failure occurs while the timer is set,
the timer setting will be cancelled and will not be
retrieved even after the power is restored.
NOTE ON HEATING OPERATION
DEFROSTING FUNCTION
• When frost forms on the outdoor unit during heat-
ing operation, the unit operate automatic defrost-
ing for about 3 to 12 minutes to remove the frost.
• During defrosting, the heating operation stops
and the HEAT lamp (
) on the unit ashes.
HEATING EFFICIENCY
• The unit employs a heat pump that draws heat
from the outside air and releases it into the
room. The outside temperature therefore greatly
affects the heating efciency.
• If the heating efciency is reduced due to low
outside temperatures, use an additional heater.
• It takes time to warm up and heat the entire
room because of the forced air circulation sys-
tem.

circuit breaker before performing any mainte-
nance.
