WARNING: FLAMMABLE MATERIAL
The refrigerant inside this unit is mildly flammable.
NOTICE
Do NOT use the system for other purposes. In order to avoid any quality deterioration, do NOT use the unit for cooling precision instruments, food, plants, animals, or works of art.

3.1 Indoor unit

CAUTION
Do NOT insert fingers, rods or other objects into the air inlet or outlet. When the fan is rotating at high speed, it will cause injury.
INFORMATION
The sound pressure level is less than 70dBA.
3 | About the system
WARNING
Do not modify, disassemble, remove, reinstall or repair the unit yourself as
incorrect dismantling or installation may cause an electric shock or fire. Contact your dealer.
In case of accidental refrigerant leaks, make sure there are no naked flames. The
refrigerant itself is entirely safe, non-toxic and mildly flammable, but it will generate toxic gas when it accidentally leaks into a room where combustible air from fan heaters, gas cookers, etc. is present. Always have qualified service personnel confirm that the point of leakage has been repaired or corrected before resuming operation.

What. The system operates differently, depending on the user selection.
Setting Description
Automatic
Drying
The system cools down or heats up a room to the temperature setpoint. It automatically switches between cooling and heating if necessary.
The system decreases the humidity in a room without changing the temperature.
Heating
The system heats up a room to the temperature setpoint.
Cooling
The system cools down a room to the temperature setpoint.
Fan
The system only controls the airflow (airflow rate and airflow direction).
The system does NOT control the temperature.
Additional info:
Outside temperature. The system's cooling or heating effect decreases when the
outside temperature is too high or too low.
Defrost operation. During heating operation, frost might occur on the outdoor
unit and decrease the heating capacity. In that case, the system automatically switches to defrosting operation to remove the frost. During defrosting operation, hot air is NOT blown from the indoor unit.

6 Energy saving and optimum operation

INFORMATION
Even if the unit is turned OFF, it consumes electricity.When the power turns back on after a power break, the previously selected
mode will be resumed.
CAUTION
NEVER expose little children, plants or animals directly to the airflow.
WARNING
Do NOT place objects below the indoor and/or outdoor unit that may get wet. Otherwise condensation on the unit or refrigerant pipes, air filter dirt or drain blockage may cause dripping, and objects under the unit may get dirty or damaged.
WARNING
Do NOT place a flammable spray bottle near the air conditioner and do NOT use sprays near the unit. Doing so may result in a fire.
CAUTION
Do NOT operate the system when using a room fumigation-type insecticide. Chemicals could collect in the unit, and endanger the health of people who are hypersensitive to chemicals.
Observe the following precautions to ensure the system operates properly.
Prevent direct sunlight from entering a room during cooling operation by using
curtains or blinds.
Make sure the area is well ventilated. Do NOT block any ventilation openings.
Ventilate often. Extended use requires special attention to ventilation.
Keep doors and windows closed. If the doors and windows remain open, air will
flow out of your room causing a decrease in the cooling or heating effect.
Be careful NOT to cool or heat too much. To save energy, keep the temperature
setting at a moderate level.
NEVER place objects near the air inlet or the air outlet of the unit. Doing so may
cause a reduced heating/cooling effect or stop operation.
Turn the breaker off when the unit is NOT used for longer periods of time. If the
breaker is on, the unit consumes electricity. Before restarting the unit, turn the breaker on 6 hours before operation to ensure smooth running.
Condensation may form if the humidity is above 80% or if the drain outlet gets
blocked.
ATXF50~71A2V1B Daikin room air conditioner 4P513685-6C – 2019.12
Adjust the room temperature properly for a comfortable environment. Avoid
excessive heating or cooling. Notice that it may take some time for the room temperature to reach the set temperature. Consider using the timer setting options.
Adjust the air flow direction to avoid cool air from gathering on the floor or warm
air against the ceiling. (Up during cooling or dry operation to the ceiling and down during heating operation.)
Avoid direct air flow to room inhabitants.

This product contains fluorinated greenhouse gases. Do NOT vent gases into the atmosphere.
Refrigerant type: R32
Global warming potential (GWP) value: 675
NOTICE
Applicable legislation on fluorinated greenhouse gases requires that the refrigerant charge of the unit is indicated both in weight and CO2 equivalent.
Formula to calculate the quantity in CO2 equivalent tonnes: GWP value of the refrigerant × total refrigerant charge [in kg] / 1000
Please contact your installer for more information.

8.1 Symptoms that are NOT system malfunctions

The following symptoms are NOT system malfunctions:

8.1.1 Symptom: A sound like water flowing is heard

This sound is caused by the refrigerant flowing in the unit.
This sound may be generated when water is flowing away from the unit during
cooling or drying operation.

8.1.2 Symptom: A blowing sound is heard

This sound is generated when the direction of the refrigerant flow is changed (e.g. when switching from cooling to heating).

8.1.3 Symptom: A ticking sound is heard

This sound is generated when the unit slightly expands or contracts with changes in temperature.
8 | Troubleshooting

8.1.4 Symptom: A whistling sound is heard

This sound is generated by the refrigerant flowing during defrost operation.

8.1.5 Symptom: A clicking sound during operation or idle time is heard

This sound is generated when the refrigerant control valves or electrical parts operate.

8.1.6 Symptom: A clapping sound is heard

This sound is generated when an external device sucks air out of the room (e.g. exhaust fan, extractor hood) while the doors and windows in the room are closed. Open the doors or windows, or turn off the device.

8.1.7 Symptom: The units can give off odours

The unit can absorb the smell of rooms, furniture, cigarettes, etc., and then emit it again.

8.1.8 Symptom: The outdoor fan rotates while the air conditioner is not in operation

After operation has stopped. The outdoor fan continues to rotate for another
30 seconds for system protection.
