Troubleshooting

Problem

After pressing the start key the device is not started
by the microprocessor for 3 minutes.

Crackling noises can be heard.

There is an odd smell in the room.

The fan stops during dehumidifying.

You can hear moving water.

The air flow changes automatically during operation.

There is a clicking noise inside the indoor device.

There is a muffled noise coming from the indoor
device.

Water drops from the outdoor device.

Air is not blown out immediately in heat mode.

The air conditioner switches off during heat mode.

Cause

This is not a fault, it is for the protection of the
compressor. Please have a little patience.

This is not a fault.
These tension noises are caused by the contraction
and expansion of the front panel in response to
temperature differences.

This is not a fault.
The air conditioner also circulates the transpiration
from the walls, carpets, smoke, furniture and clothing
in the air.

This is not a fault.
The temperature increases when water evaporates
on the heat exchanger in the indoor device.

This is not a fault.
The coolant in the air conditioner may have
expanded.

This is not a fault.
The ventilation slats turn to a horizontal position to
prevent dripping if the air has been blown downwards
for approx. 1 hour in the cool or dehumidifying
function. If the blast air is too cool, it will also be
blown out horizontally.

This is not a fault.
This will normally be the noise of the fan or the
compressor when switching on or off.

This is not a fault.
This noise comes from the coolant in the air
conditioner.

This is not a fault.
During the cooling process the tube or the connection
pieces cool down in order to form the condensate.
During defrosting or heating the evaporation
condensate may drip. During heating, water may drip
from the heat exchanger.

This is not a fault.
Air only starts to be blown out once it has been
heated up.

The outdoor device freezes if the outdoor
temperature is low (below approx. +7°C). Heat mode
is not possible if the outdoor temperature is below
approx. +7°C.
