ADVANCED FEATURES
Your new BONAIRE Ducted Reverse Cycle air conditioning system incorporates one of the most advanced
and up to date control systems and functions available to keep your home comfortable under many
different conditions. Some of the advanced features that help achieve your comfort conditions are:
AUTOMATIC DEFROST FUNCTION
During heating at low ambient (outside) temperatures it is possible for frost to build up on the outdoor heat
exchanger. This build up of frost will restrict the airflow and efficiency across the heat exchanger and
subsequently reduce the heating performance of the air conditioning system. To provide the most
effective heating, the control uses a multi-stage defrost cycle; which means the system will only defrost
when it needs, saving you energy. When the system determines a defrost must be performed it will initiate
one of two defrost cycles depending on the settings made by your installer, they are:-
Hush Defrost – Factory Setting
The Hush Defrost cycle is designed to provide you with the quietest defrost operation. During this cycle
the outdoor unit will shutdown, then restart in defrost mode. Once the system has determined that all frost
has been removed it will shutdown again then restart in heating operation and resume normal heating
functions. This defrost cycle will take on average between 6 to 12 minutes (16 minutes max.)
Quick Defrost
The quick Defrost cycle is designed to provide you with the fastest and most efficient defrost operation.
During this cycle the outdoor unit will immediately changeover to the defrost cycle when required. Once
the system has determined that all frost has been removed it will immediately return to normal heating
operation. This defrost cycle will take on average between 4 to 8 minutes (10 minutes max.). Quick
defrost is the most efficient defrost cycle and should be selected in colder climates where repeated
defrosting is more probable.
NOTES
please refer to your dealer). 2) During defrost you may see mist or steam emitted from the outdoor unit,
this is not abnormal. 3) If BOOST heating, if installed and activated, will operate during the defrost cycle
to assist in maintaining heating operation.
SOFT HEAT FUNCTION
: 1) During defrost the indoor fan and outdoor fans are switched OFF (to disable this function
The Soft Heat function is designed to reduce the possibility of cold drafts often experienced when an air
conditioning system starts heating operation. Soft heat will hold off the indoor fan until the indoor heat
exchanger is warm enough to supply warm air directly to the outlets. The control system will continually
monitor the indoor coil temperature and if it drops below 25°C will shut down the fan and allow for the coil
to re-heat before re-starting the indoor fan on low speed. It is normal for the fan to start and stop during
low temperature start-ups.
NOTE
: The Soft Heat function is set as a factory default (to disable this function please refer to your
dealer).
ECONOMY FAN SPEED SELECTION – INDOOR FAN
When operating in the economy mode the indoor fan speed is determined by the indoor comfort controller.
By monitoring the room temperature and the SET TEMP chosen by the operator the system will calculate
the best operating fan speed. As a general rule the indoor fan speed will gradually reduce as the room
temperature approaches the SET TEMP level.
NOTE
: The system will maintain low speed during system cycling if the ‘fan always on’ functions have
been set by the installer (to operate this function please refer to your dealer)
Page 25
Multi-Appliance Comfort Control
Ducted Reverse Cycle
ECONOMY FAN SPEED SELECTION – OUTDOOR FAN
When operating in the economy mode the outdoor fan speed is reduced back to approximately 70% of the
full operating speed. This function is designed to provide reduced power usage from the outdoor fan/s
and provide reduced noise operation during low load conditions. If the system monitors safety functions
being activated that requires maximum fan speed the control will raise the outdoor fan speed to 100% until
the safety issue has passed then it will resume economy operation.
NOTE
: Outdoor fan economy operation is available as a factory default setting it can be disabled from
system the system set-up (please refer to your dealer to disable this function).
VARIABLE OUTDOOR FAN SPEED CONTROL
The outdoor fan motor/s is controlled via a state of the art speed control system. During operation the
indoor coil, outdoor coil, air and ambient temperatures are monitored to determine the best fan speed
operation. From these monitored temperatures the controller will change the outdoor fan speed to the
lowest setting while continuing to maintain optimum performance. The advantage of this is reduced power
consumption and lower outdoor noise levels. If required the control system will shut down the outdoor
fan/s from time to time, even while the outdoor unit (compressor) is operating this is part of the optimum
performance control and is not abnormal.
ANTI-FREEZE – INDOOR UNIT
During cooling operation if the control system senses if the indoor coil is below 0°C and the system has
been operating for a specific time period the compressor will stop and not resume until the indoor coil
temperature has risen above 7°C. During this period the indoor fan will operate at low speed and the
controller will display RESET to acknowledge the freeze protection has been activated. This RESET will
need to be cleared after the system has resumed normal operation.
SYSTEM ZONING CONTROL
Zoning operation is a common function required by most ducted reverse cycle system as it provides a
means of flexible whole of home conditioning while reducing unit size and running costs. Your BONAIRE
Ducted Reverse Cycle system incorporates zoning control, up to four individual zones, built into the indoor
control unit. Not only does this provide flexible system operation but it allows simple and convenient zone
control directly from your Ultimate RF Handset or wall mounted Premium control.
NOTE
: Zone motors and zoning fitment is a field supplied option (please refer to your dealer regarding the
setup and availability of zoning for your system).
BOOST HEATING
In climates where the outdoor minimum temperatures falls outside the designed operating range of the
reverse cycle system you may require BOOST or supplementary heating (field supplied). If installed, your
unit can control the BOOST heating operation to assist in maintaining maximum heating performance.
When the system monitors the indoor temperature is 2 or more degrees below the SET TEMP, and
heating operation is called for, it will initiate the BOOST heating relay and start the indoor fan on high
speed, if not already on high. The unit will maintain the BOOST heating until the room temperature is
equal to the SET TEMP at which point BOOST will be switched off and the system will return to normal
heating operation. If the system initiates a defrost cycle, BOOST heating will be activated the indoor fan
will remain on and with the BOOST heaters while defrosting is being carried out.
NOTES
fan will remain on for an additional 2 minutes to dissipate the residual heat in the heaters, to avoid any
safety trips. 2) BOOST heating is an installer settable function and is disabled as a factory default.
: 1) If the system is turned OFF from the controller while BOOST heating is operating the indoor

In the unlikely event that a fault develops with the air conditioner the controller system will diagnose the
fault (where possible) and display the words RESET on the controller screen. Not all RESET displays
will adversely effect the operation of your air conditioning system.
If the controller displays RESET and the system is operating correctly it may have been an indicator that
there was abnormal operation and now all is okay. If this is the case just carry out the reset procedure
stated below.
If the controller displays RESET and the system is neither heating or cooling as required; the system has
performed a lock out procedure and must be reset before it will resume normal operation. If this is the
case perform the reset procedure stated below.
IMPORTANT NOTE

ABNORMAL OPERATION OR MALFUNCTION OF THE AIR CONDITIONER
NOT
The following items are not classed as abnormal operation or malfunction of the air conditioner and do not
require you contacting your authorised Climate Technologies service department or a service visit:
The System Does Not Start Immediately After the ON / OFF Button is Pressed
If the controller display is showing ON the system is in the normal operating condition. The system may
not start or restart immediately because one of its safety devices or timers has activated to prevent the
system from being overloaded. The system can start after at least 3 minutes has passed, in some cases
the safety delay may extend to 10 minutes depending on the previous operating function.
The System Does Not Start Immediately After Adjusting the SET TEMP
If the controller display is showing ON the system is in the normal operating condition. The system may
not start or restart immediately because one of its safety devices or timers has activated to prevent the
system from being overloaded. The system can start after at least 3 minutes has passed, in some cases
the safety delay may extend to 10 minutes depending on the previous operating function.
Starting and Stopping of the Indoor Fan Automatically During Heating Operation
The indoor fan may start and stop depending on the temperature of the indoor coil to prevent cold drafts.
Starting and Stopping of the Outdoor Unit Compressor and Fan
During normal operation the outdoor unit fan may start and stop depending on the system requirements,
this may happen while the compressor is operating. The outdoor noise levels may change during the ON /
OFF operation of the outdoor fan. The compressor will start and stop as required for the heating and
cooling needs of the system.
Water Flow from the Outdoor Unit
This will most likely occur during heating operation depending on the outdoor humidity and temperature
levels. Some water may also drip from the service valves and pipe work during cooling and heating
operation.
Refrigerant Flow Sound
During starting and stopping a “shuh” sound may be heard, this is a result of the refrigerant flow.
Smells from the Indoor Unit
The unit will draw smells into the return air from furniture, rooms, cooking, etc... Ensure good ventilation
and clean the return air filter regularly to minimise smells that may result after long periods of use.
Steam or Mist from the Outdoor Heat Exchanger
During defrost operation it is likely that steam or mist may be produced off the outdoor heat exchanger
while the frost is being melted.

CONTROL SETUP
SETTING UP THE CONTROL - GENERAL
EFORE STARTING
B
Before attempting to use the setup instructions for the controls system, make sure the antenna (RF units
only) or the low voltage cable is connected, batteries have been correctly installed in the remote control
(RF units only) and the main switch has been turned on for the product.
NOTE:
DO NOT RUN THE LOW VOLTAGE LOOM IN LONG PARALLEL RUNS WITH 240V MAINS CABLES. KEEP THE
LOW VOLTAGE LOOM
200MM AWAY FROM ANY LONG RUNS OF MAINS WIRING.
Cross over mains wiring at right angles.
Do not use existing access holes in wall cavities where 240V mains wiring exists. Drill a
new access hole 200mm from the existing hole.
INSTALLATION
Where the control must be installed approximately
1.5 metres above the floor level on an internal wall
which adjoins an additional conditioned space, this
will provide the best comfort control.
Secure the Comfort Control cradle to the wall using
the screws and plugs provided.
• For hard wired versions bring the cable through
the hole in the cradle into the control. Once
connected snap the control into the cradle.
• For radio frequency controls install batteries and
slide the Comfort Control into the cradle. The
Comfort Control should remain in the cradle
during normal operating conditions for optimum
temperature thermostat control.
Do not locate Comfort Control near concealed hot or cold water pipes, warm air ducts, radiators, sunlight,
televisions or draughts from hallways, stairways and fireplaces. These can all affect the temperature.
RF Control Units ONLY
Ensure the antenna has been installed at least 500 mm clear of all metal masses. The transmissions
between the RF Remote Control and the unit control box are radio signals which are subject to
interference. The primary causes for signal interference are:
• Metal Construction buildings or metal masses near the antenna.
• Incorrect location of the antenna
• Cordless RF door bells
• Other Faulty appliances
• Remote Control too close to computers
• Powerful radio scanners
If transmission cannot be achieved successfully a Low voltage cable control will need to be installed by the
installer.
