Air-conditioner operable temperature setting
■ Use within the following operational range. Operating outside of this range may result in the protection devices being activated, preventing the unit from working.
Cooling operation | Heating operation | |
Outside temperature | Approximately -15 °C to 46 °C | Approximately -15 to 24 °C |
Inside temperature | Approximately 18 to 32 °C | Approximately 15 to 30 °C |
Inside humidity | Below approximately 80% The long-term use of the unit with a humidity level exceeding 80% may result in condensation forming on the surface of the indoor unit, leading to water drips. | — |
Characteristics of HEAT mode operation
Mechanism and capacity of HEAT mode operation
■ Mechanism
• The unit draws heat from the cold outside air, transfers it to indoors and heats the room. As a characteristic of heat pump system, the heating capacity reduces when the outside air temperature gets colder.
• It may take some time to supply hot air after turning on the air-conditioner.
• If the outside temperature becomes extremely low, it would be better to use an additional source of heating.
Defrosting
If the outside temperature becomes low and humidity is high, the heat exchanger in the outdoor unit may frost over, which prevents efficient heating.
If this happens, the automatic defrost function is activated and during defrosting the heating operation stops for 5 to 15 minutes during defrosting.
• Both indoor and outdoor fans stop and the RUN light blinks slowly (1.5 sec. ON, 0.5 sec. OFF) during defrosting.
• The outdoor unit may give off some steam during defrosting. This is to help the defrosting process and is not a defect.
• The HEAT operation resumes as soon as defrosting has been completed.
Adjusting airflow direction
■ Up/down direction can be adjusted with the AIRFLOW button on the remote control. Every time you press this button the mode changes as follows:
Change on AIRFLOW (UP/DOWN) mode.
(Flap stopped) (Swing)
NOTE FOR HEATING OPERATION
• When operation starts, the flap direction is fixed at the horizontal position in order to avoid cold draft, and return to the set the position that was set after the warm air supply is starting.
• The flap direction will be controlled to the horizontal position when the room temperature reaches the set temperature and compressor stops or when defrosting is in operation.
• The airflow direction cannot be set during the period mentioned above. Change the airflow direction settings after the warm air is supplied and the
flap goes to the set position.
(Horizontal blowing)
COOL, DRY
(Slant forward blowing)
HEAT
MEMORY FLAP (FLAP STOPPED)
When you press the AIRFLOW button once while the flap is operating, it stops swinging at the position. Since this angle is memorized in the microcomputer, the flap will automatically be set at this angle when the next operation is started.
WARNING
• Do not expose directly to airflow from the air-conditioner for a long time.
• Recommended angle of the flap when stopping
CAUTION
• When in COOL or DRY operation, do not operate for a long period with the airflow blowing straight down. Otherwise, condensation may appear on the outlet grill and drip down.
• Do not try to adjust the flaps by hand, as the control angle may change or the flap may not be closed completely.
Adjusting left/right air flow direction
■ Adjust the direction by moving the left/right louver by hand.
When you adjust the direction, touch the operation point of louver.

Tips for effective operation
■ Please observe the following for the most economic and comfortable use of your unit.
Set a suitable room temperature. Excessively high or low temperatures are not good for your health and waste of electricity. | Clean the filter frequently. Clogged filter may block the airflow and cause less efficient operation. | Avoid direct sunlight and draught. Cut out direct sunlight by drawing the cur- tains or blinds when cooling. Keep windows and doors shut, except when ventilating. |
Adjust the airflow direction properly. Adjust the up/down and left/right airflow to ensure a steady room temperature. | Operate the unit only when needed. Use the timer properly to operate the unit only when needed. | Keep heat source away when cooling. Keep heat sources out of the room as much as possible. |
Careful matter during maintenance
Turn off the power supply.
• Do not spill any liquid.
Wipe the unit with a soft, dry cloth.
There's a danger of electric shock.

Installing, inspecting and replacing the air-cleaning filter
1. Remove the air filter. Page 18
2. Remove the filter holders, with the air-cleaning filter installed in the holders, from the air filter.
3. Remove the photocatalytic washable deodorizing filter (orange) from the filter holder and inspect the filter. Periodically, remove any dust or dirt from the photocatalytic washable deodorizing filter. If the photocatalytic washable deodorizing filter is par- ticularly dirty, it may be washed with water. However, the filter is fragile so be sure to wash it installed in the filter holder to avoid damaging it. After washing the filter, place it in sunlight to dry. Placing the filter in sunlight revitalizes the deodorizing effect.
Remove the natural enzyme filter (green) from the filter holder and inspect the filter. Use a vacuum cleaner to remove any dust or dirt from the natural enzyme filter. Replace the natural enzyme filter if it cannot be cleaned or if it has been used for about 1 year.
(The natural enzyme filter should be replaced after about 1 year of use. However, the actual replacement period may vary depending on the conditions in which the filter is used.)
(Do not dispose of the filter holders. They are reused. )
4. Install the air-cleaning filter in the filter holders, and then install the filter holders in the air filter.

Suitable installation position
• Do not put any obstruction in front of the indoor unit, preventing proper ventilation and functioning.
• Do not install the unit in any of the following places:
• Where there is a danger of leaking flammable gases.
• Where there is substantial splashing of oil.
• Malfunctioning due to corrosion may occur if the unit is installed in a spa where sulfide gases are generated, or in a seaside resort exposed to sea breezes. Contact your dealer.
• The air-conditioner and remote control must be at least 1 metre away from a TV set or radio.
• Drain the dehumidified liquid from the indoor unit into a spot that drains well.
Pay attention to operating noises!
• When you install the unit, take care to choose a place that can comfortably stand the weight of the unit and does not increase the operating noise or vibration. If vibration is transmitted through the house, fix the unit with the aid of vibration-proof pads between the unit and the fittings.
• Select a place where cold or hot air, operation noises from the indoor and outdoor units do not cause any inconvenience to your neighbours.
• Do not leave any obstacles near the outlet and inlet of the outdoor unit. This may cause malfunctioning and increased operating noise.
• If you hear an irregular noise during operation, contact your dealer.
Inspection and maintenance
Depending on operating environment, the inside of the air-conditioner may become dirty after a few year operations. This will reduce performance. In addition to normal cleaning, we would recommend inspection and maintenance. (This may lead the air-conditioner to having a longer life without any trouble.)
• Contact your dealer, or any distributor, for inspection and maintenance. (There will be a charge for this service).
• We would recommend inspection and maintenance to be carried out during the off-season.
• If the supply cord of this appliance is damaged, it must only be replaced by a repair shop appointed by the manufacturer, because special purpose tools are required.
Troubleshooting
Please carry out the following checks before making a service call.
The air-conditioner does not work at all. | ||
Has the power switch been turned off? | Has the timer been set in the “ON” position? | Is there a power failure or a blown fuse? |
Poor cooling or heating | ||
Have you set the thermostat at a suitable temperature? | Is the air filter clean? (Not clogged?) | Did you leave any doors or windows open? |
Poor cooling | ||
Is there any direct sunlight entering the room? | Is there a heat source in the room? | Are there too many people in the room? |
If the air-conditioner does not operate properly after you have checked the above points, or if any doubt still exists after you have consulted page 21, or if things happen as shown on page 22, switch off the power and contact your dealer.
An alternative refrigerant (R410A) is used in this air-conditioner. When asking your dealer for service or inspection and maintenance, explain the dealer about it.
The unit does not restart immediately after you have stopped it. (RUN light is on) | Restart is blocked for 3 minutes after you have stopped the op- eration to protect the unit. The three-minute protection timer in the microcomputer auto- matically starts it up again. |
Airflow is not blown out when starting the HEATING opera- tion. RUN light blinks slowly (1.5 sec ON, 0.5 sec OFF) | Airflow has stopped to prevent blowing out of cold air until the indoor heat exchanger has warmed up. (2 to 5 min.) (HOT KEEP program) |
Airflow is not blown out for 5 to 15 min. or blown out not warm wind for a moment at HEATING operation. RUN light blinks slowly (1.5 sec ON, 0.5 sec OFF) | When outdoor temperature is low and humidity is high, the unit sometimes performs defrosting automatically. Please wait. Dur- ing defrosting, water or steam may escape from the outdoor unit. |
Airflow is not blown out when starting the DRY operation. (RUN light is on) | The indoor fan may stop to prevent re-evaporation of dehumified moisture and to save energy. |
Some steam escapes during COOL operation. | This may occur if the room's temperature and humidity are very high. It disappears as soon as the temperature and humidity decrease. |
There is a slight smell. | Air blown out during operation may smell. This is caused by tobacco or cosmetics adhering to the unit. |
You hear a slight gurgling sound. | This is caused by refrigerating liquid moving within the unit. |
You hear a slight cracking sound. | This is caused by heat expansion or contraction. |
You hear a hissing or clicking sound. | This is caused by the operation of the refrigerant control valves or electric components. |
After a power cut, the unit does not restart even if power has been restored. | If the auto restart function is not set, the unit will not restart auto- matically. Use the remote control to start the operation again. |
Remote control signals are not received. | Remote control signals may not be received if the signal receiver on the air-conditioner is exposed to direct sunlight or other bright light. If so, cut out the sunlight or reduce the other light. |
Moisture may form on the air outlet grills. | If the unit is operated for a long time in high humidity, moisture may form on the air outlet grills and start dripping. |
Whistling noise is heard from the outdoor unit. | The noise means that the revolution speed of the compressor is increasing or decreasing. |
Fan will not stop immediately after unit operation was stopped. | Indoor fan : Fan will not stop after 2 hours if set to CLEAN operation. Outdoor fan : Fan will not stop about a 1 minute period in order to protect the unit. |
RUN light stays on even though operation was stopped. | The RUN light illuminates during CLEAN operation. Run light turns off when CLEAN operation ends. |
■ Turn off the power switch immediately and inform your dealer in any of the following situations:
The cable becomes extremely hot. CAUTION The covering of the cable is cracked. If the power cord becomes damaged, ask your dealer or a qualified engineer to install the replacement to avoid accidents. | |
The fuse or switch blows continuously. | The TV, radio or other equipment starts to malfunction. |
A switch does not activate properly. | You hear a strange noise during operation. |
When abnormalities occur, turn off the power supply imme- diately and turn it on after 3 minutes. Restart the operation with ON/OFF button of the remote control and the abnor- malities still continue. | The RUN and TIMER lights on the unit display section blink quickly (0.5 sec. ON; 0.5 sec. OFF) and do not work. |
