Overview

The Whirlpool Inverter Plus Split Type Air Conditioner (SIA Models: SIA90 IN, SIA120 IN, SIA180 IN, SIA240 IN) is a range of air conditioning units designed for residential use, offering various cooling capacities and features for enhanced comfort and energy efficiency.

Function Description

The Whirlpool Inverter Plus Split Type Air Conditioner is designed to provide cooling and dehumidification for indoor spaces. It operates using an inverter technology, which allows for variable compressor speed, leading to more precise temperature control, reduced energy consumption, and quieter operation compared to traditional fixed-speed air conditioners.

The system consists of an indoor unit and an outdoor unit. The indoor unit is responsible for drawing in room air, cooling it, and circulating it back into the room. It also features a display strip, air outlet, and an emergency control button for manual operation. The outdoor unit houses the compressor, condenser, and other components necessary for the refrigeration cycle.

The air conditioner offers several operating modes, including:

  • 6th Sense Mode: This intelligent mode automatically adjusts the operation mode (cooling or fan only), temperature, and fan speed based on the actual room temperature to optimize comfort and energy efficiency. For example, if the room temperature is over 27°C, it will cool to 26°C; between 20°C and 27°C, it will cool or fan only to 24°C; and below 20°C, it will operate in fan only mode at 22°C.
  • COOL Mode: Initiates the cooling operation, allowing users to set the desired temperature, fan speed, and louver direction.
  • DRY Mode: Activates dehumidification to reduce room humidity.
  • SLEEP Mode: Provides a comfortable sleeping environment by automatically setting the fan speed to silent or low and gradually increasing the set temperature by 1°C per hour, up to 28°C. This mode can be activated in 6th Sense, Cool, or Dry operation.
  • TURBO Mode: Engages fast cooling by operating the appliance at a super high fan speed. The fan speed indicator will flicker continuously in this mode.
  • FAN ONLY Mode: Circulates air without cooling or heating, allowing adjustment of fan speed and louver direction. This mode can only be activated when the appliance is off.

The unit is controlled via a remote control, which provides access to various functions such as power on/off, temperature adjustment, fan speed selection, swing control, sleep mode, turbo mode, clock setting, timer functions, and a lock feature to prevent accidental changes. An "Accurate Button" allows setting the temperature to decimal digits. The remote control also features a "Reset Button" to revert to default settings.

For emergency situations or when the remote control is unavailable, an on/off switch is located on the indoor unit behind the front panel. Pressing this button when the unit is off will start it in 6th Sense mode, and pressing it when the unit is on will turn it off.

Maintenance Features

The manual provides basic troubleshooting steps and error code analysis to assist in diagnosing and resolving common issues.

Sensor Location:

The unit features two important sensors:

  • Evaporator Temperature Sensor: Located on the evaporator coil, it checks the evaporator radiation temperature.
  • Actual Room Temperature (Ambient) Sensor: Located on the indoor unit's main control board, it checks the actual room temperature.

Inverter Module Function:

The inverter system comprises two main components:

  • Compressor Module: Controls the power supply to the compressor based on commands from the Main Control Board.
  • Main Control Board: Responsible for communication between the outdoor and indoor units and other modules. It contains the air conditioner's control program.

Inverter Module Troubleshooting:

  • LED 1 (Red Light) on Main Control Board: If OFF, the main control board is not defective. If flashing, it indicates a main control failure.
  • LED Indicator on Compressor Module: If it appears fast/slow regular flashing, the Compressor Module is defective.

Basic Troubleshooting (Common Issues and Solutions):

  • Does not run: Check for blown fuse/protection device, wait 3 minutes for protection device reset, check remote control batteries, ensure plug is properly inserted.
  • No cooling: Check for dirty air filter, blocked intakes/outlets, proper temperature setting, closed doors/windows.
  • Ineffective control: If strong interference (static electricity, power supply abnormality) occurs, unplug and re-plug after 2-3 seconds.
  • Does not operate immediately: A 3-minute delay occurs when changing mode.
  • Peculiar smell: May come from furniture, cigarettes, etc., sucked in and blown out with air.
  • Sound of running water: Normal behavior caused by refrigerant flow.
  • Cracking sound: Normal expansion/contraction of the front panel due to temperature changes.
  • Mist sprays from the outlet: Normal behavior due to cool air discharged during COOLING or DRY operation in low room temperature.

Error Code Analysis:

The manual provides a detailed table of error codes (e.g., F0, F1-F9, E0-E2, J0-J9, C1) with their corresponding cause analysis and processing methods. These codes help identify specific issues such as motor problems, sensor faults, communication errors, power supply issues, and more. For instance, an F0 code (PG motor fault) might require testing motor winding resistance or replacing the motor. If a fault code appears, it is recommended to turn off the unit for 5 minutes and then turn it on again, as it might indicate a program reset is needed. Only if the fault code appears for 3 consecutive operations should replacement of the indicated part be considered.
