  Tim PriceAug 12, 2025
  Your Toshiba Air Conditioner might not be cooling down the room because the air intake or discharge of the outdoor unit is clogged. Also, check if any doors or windows are open, if the air filter is clogged with dust, if the air volume is set to “LOW”, or if the operation mode is set to “FAN”. Ensure that the setup temperature is appropriate.

This document is the Owner's Manual for Toshiba Concealed Duct Type Air Conditioners, specifically models RAV-HM561BTP-E, RAV-HM801BTP-E, RAV-HM901BTP-E, RAV-HM1101BTP-E, RAV-HM1401BTP-E, and RAV-HM1601BTP-E. It is intended for commercial use and utilizes R32 refrigerant, which does not deplete the ozone layer. The manual emphasizes safety precautions, operational procedures, maintenance, and troubleshooting.

Function Description

The Toshiba air conditioner is a split-type system designed for air conditioning (cooling and heating) in commercial settings such as shops and light industry. It operates using a heat pump system, absorbing heat from the outside for heating. The system can be controlled via a wired remote controller (RBC-ASCU1* model name) which features an LCD display with various indicators for running mode, fan speed, temperature settings, timer, and error codes.

Key operational modes include:

Auto Mode: The unit automatically selects cooling, heating, or fan-only operation based on the user-set point temperature.
Cooling Mode: Provides cooling, with the outdoor unit stopping and the indoor fan running at low speed once the room temperature reaches the set temperature.
Heating Mode: Provides heating, with a 3-5 minute delay after mode selection. The outdoor unit stops and the indoor fan runs at low speed once the room temperature reaches the set temperature. During defrost operation, the fan stops to prevent cool air discharge.
8°C Operation (Object Pre-heating): Allows the air conditioner to maintain a heating temperature of approximately 8°C. This feature requires specific settings via the wired remote controller.
Fan Speed Selection: Users can select various fan speeds including Auto, Low, Low+, Med., Med.+, High, and Fix.
Timer Operation: An OFF timer allows the indoor unit to stop after a set period (0.5h to 24h).

The air conditioner is designed to provide comfortable indoor conditions while incorporating safety and efficiency features.

Important Technical Specifications

Refrigerant: HFC (R32), a flammable refrigerant that does not destroy the ozone layer.
Power Supply: Requires connection to an exclusive power supply of the rated voltage.
Operating Temperature Range:
- Cooling: Outdoor temperature -15°C to 46°C (Dry bulb temp.), Room temperature 21°C to 32°C (Dry bulb temp.), 15°C to 24°C (Wet bulb temp.). Room relative humidity less than 80%.
- Heating: Outdoor temperature -15°C to 15°C (Wet bulb temp.), Room temperature 15°C to 28°C (Dry bulb temp.).
Temperature Setting Range: 18.0°C to 29.0°C, with a sensitivity of 0.5°C.

Usage Features

Remote Controller (RBC-ASCU1*): Features an LCD with back-light for 15 seconds during operation. Displays running mode, fan speed, temperature, timer, and error codes.
Buttons: ON/OFF, Setting, Timer Off, and Menu buttons for controlling various functions.
Central Control Indication: An icon appears when the unit is centrally controlled, and flashes if remote controller buttons are disabled by central control.
Error Display: When a trouble occurs, a check code is displayed on the remote controller. The troubleshooting history can record up to 4 records and can be viewed even when the air conditioner is off.
Installation: Must be performed by a qualified installer or service person to prevent electric shocks, leaks, and other issues. Proper earthing is crucial.
Refrigerant Leakage Prevention: If installed in a small room, measures must be taken to prevent refrigerant concentration from exceeding limits, to avoid oxygen deficiency accidents.
Environmental Considerations: Avoid installing near combustible gases, high-frequency appliances, humid/oily places, salty areas, or sources of corrosive gas.
Noise and Vibration: Install on a solid, stable foundation to minimize noise and vibration. Consider the outdoor unit's operation sound in relation to neighbors.
Restart after Stop: A 3-minute delay protects the compressor if the unit is immediately restarted after being stopped.
Power Failure: The unit stops completely during a power failure and requires manual restart via the ON/OFF button.
Defrosting Operation: Automatic defrosting occurs during heating operation (2-10 minutes), during which both indoor and outdoor fans stop.

Maintenance Features

Regular Cleaning: For environmental conservation and efficient operation, indoor and outdoor units should be cleaned and maintained regularly, ideally once a year. For units operating 8 hours or more daily, cleaning every 3 months is recommended. This should be performed by a professional to avoid damage or malfunction.
Air Filter Cleaning: Clean air filters when the filter indicator is displayed on the remote controller. Clogged filters can reduce cooling and heating performance.
Drain Pan Cleaning: Clean the drain pan before the cooling season to prevent clogging, which can lead to water overflow and damage. This should be done by a dealer.
Long-Term Storage: Before extended periods of non-use:
1. Perform fan operation for a few hours to dry the interior.
2. Stop the air conditioner and turn off the circuit breaker.
3. Clean and reinstall the air filters.
Heat Exchanger Cleaning: Wash the heat exchanger when it is clogged.
Fan Maintenance: Replace the fan if vibration or balance is poor; brush or wash it if contaminated.
Air Intake/Discharge Grilles: Fix or replace if deformed or damaged.
Ornamental Panel/Louvers: Wash if contaminated or apply repair coating.
Exterior: Apply repair coating for rust and scratches.
Professional Service: Any repairs, relocation, or work involving internal high-voltage or rotating parts must be carried out by a qualified installer or service person. Do not attempt to repair or modify the unit yourself.
Troubleshooting Guide: The manual provides a table of common symptoms, their causes (e.g., normal operation, clogged filters, open doors/windows), and instructions on when to contact a dealer. If an error code is displayed, it should be reported to the dealer.
