About Mode Operation
AUTO: COOLING MODEL
When the room temperature is 4 °F higher than the set temperature, the mode will switch between Cooling and Drying.
During the Drying mode operation, the FAN setting should be switched to LOW for a gently cooling effect during which the fan may temporarily stop rotating.
If the mode automatically selected by the unit is not satisfactory, see page 3 for instructions on changing the mode setting (COOL, FAN).
AUTO (* AUTO CHANGEOVER): HEAT & COOL MODEL (Reverse cycle)
When AUTO CHANGEOVER is selected, the air conditioner selects the appropriate operation mode (Cooling or Heating) according to your room’s present temperature.
When AUTO CHANGEOVER is first selected, the fan will operate at very low speed for about one minute while the unit determines the current conditions of the room and accordingly selects the proper operation mode.
When the air conditioner has adjusted your room’s temperature to near the thermostat setting, it will begin monitor opera­tion. In the monitor operation mode, the fan will operate at low speed. If the room temperature subsequently changes, the air conditioner will once again select the appropriate operation (Heating, Cooling) to adjust the temperature to the value set in the thermostat. (The monitor operation range is ±4 °F relative to the thermostat setting.)
If the mode automatically selected by the unit is not satisfactory, see page 3 for instructions on changing the mode setting (HEAT, COOL, FAN).
* Heating:
Use to warm your room.
When Heating mode is selected, the air conditioner will operate at very low fan
speed for about 3 to 5 minutes, after which it will switch to the selected fan set­ting. This period of time is provided to allow the indoor unit to warm up before begin full operation.
When the room temperature is very low, frost may form on the outside unit, and its performance may be reduced. In order to remove such frost, the unit will automatically enter the defrost cycle from time to time. During defrosting (see page 15), the heating mode will be temporarily interrupted. DEFROST will be shown on the remote controller display.
Cooling:
Use to cool your room.
* During Heating mode:
Set the thermostat to a temperature set­ting that is higher than the current room temperature. The Heating mode will not operate if the thermostat is set lower than the actual room temperature.
During Cooling mode:
Set the thermostat to a temperature set­ting that is lower than the current room temperature. The Cooling mode will not operate if the thermostat is set higher than the actual room temperature (in Cooling mode, the fan alone will operate).

Use to circulate the air throughout your room.

The energy conservation mode (ENERGY SAVE) raises the set temperature slightly in the cooling mode and lowers the set temperature in the heating mode, using a computer program to economically control the operation of the unit.
If you press the ENERGY SAVE button while the air conditioner is on, it will change to the conservation mode. If you press the ENERGY SAVE button while the unit is in the timer mode (ON timer, WEEKLY timer), the unit will go into the conserva­tion mode when the unit starts with the timer.
If you turn off the air conditioner while in the conservation mode, the mode will be shut off.
The temperature set on the remote controller will not change if the energy save mode is used.
* When Heating
After the ENERGY SAVE button is pressed, the set tempera­ture will be lowered about 2 °F every 30 minutes. When it has lowered a total of 4 °F, then it will hold that temperature.
When Cooling
After the ENERGY SAVE button is pressed, the set tempera­ture will be raised about 1 °F every 30 minutes. When it has gone up a total of 2 °F, then it will hold that temperature.

4. Clean the air filters.
Remove the dust from the air filters by vacuuming or washing them. After washing, allow the air filters to dry thoroughly in an area protected from sunlight.
Dust can be cleaned from the air filter either with a vacuum
cleaner, or by washing the filter in a solution of mild de­tergent and warm water. If you wash the filter, be sure to allow it to dry thoroughly in a shady place before rein­stalling.
If dirt is allowed to accumulate on the air filter, air flow
will be reduced, lowering operating efficiency and increas­ing noise.
During periods of normal use, the air filters should be
cleaned every two months.

OPERATION DETAILS
Instructions relating to heating(*) are applicable only to “HEAT & COOL MODEL” (Reverse Cycle).
Please read and understand the following details regarding this air conditioner.
Operation and Performance
* Heating Performance
This air conditioner uses a heat pump which absorbs heat from outside air and brings it indoors. As a result, its heat­ing performance is reduced as the temperature of out­side air drops. If you find that insufficient room heat is produced, we recommend that you use the air conditioner together with other heating appliances.
Heat-pump type air conditioners use warm-air recirculation to warm your entire room. As a result, some time will be required after starting operation until your entire room becomes warm.
*
When Indoor and Outdoor Temperatures are High
When both indoor and outdoor temperatures are high dur­ing use of the heating mode, the outdoor unit’s fan may stop at times.
AUTO Restart
In Event of Power Interruption
Should the power supply to the air conditioner be inter­rupted by a power failure, the air conditioner will restart automatically in the previously selected mode once the power is restored.
*
Microcomputer-controlled Automatic Defrosting
When the outside temperature is low and the humidity high, frost will collect on the outside unit, reducing heater effi­ciency. When this happens, the computer will automatically start the defrost cycle. During the defrost cycle, the indoor fan will shutdown and DEFROST will be displayed on the remote controller. It will take anywhere from 4 to 15 min­utes before the air conditioner starts up again.
Low Ambient Cooling
When the outdoor temperature drops, the outdoor unit’s fans may switch to Low Speed, or one of the fans may stop inter­mittently.
Use of other electrical appliances (electric shaver, etc.) or nearby use of a wireless radio transmitter may cause the air conditioner to malfunction. In this event, temporarily turn off the circuit breaker turn it on again and then use the remote controller to resume operation.

TROUBLESHOOTING
Instructions relating to heating (*) are applicable only to “HEAT & COOL MODEL” (Reverse Cycle).
WARNING!
Before requesting service, perform the following checks:
In the event of a malfunction (burning smell, etc.), immediately stop operation, turn off the elec­trical breaker, and consult authorized service personnel. Merely turning off the unit’s power switch will not completely disconnect the unit from the power source. Always be sure to turn off the electrical breaker to ensure that power is completely off.
NORMAL
FUNCTION
Symptom
Doesn’t operate immedi­ately:
Noise is heard:
Smells:
Mist or steam are emitted:
Problem
If the unit is stopped and then immediately started again, the com­pressor will not operate for about 3 minutes, in order to prevent fuse blowouts.
Whenever the electrical breaker is turned off then on again, the protection circuit will operate for about 3 minutes, preventing unit operation during that period.
During operation and immediately after stopping the unit, the sound of water flowing in the air conditioner’s piping may be heard. Also, noise may be particularly noticeable for about 2 to 3 minutes after starting operation (sound of coolant flowing).
During operation, a slight squeaking sound may be heard. This is the result of minute expansion and contraction of the panel due to temperature changes.
*During Heating operation, a sizzling sound may be heard occa-
sional. This sound is produced by the Automatic Defrosting op­eration.
Some smell may be emitted from the indoor unit. This smell is the result of room smells (furniture, tobacco, etc.) which have been taken into the air conditioner.
During Cooling, a thin mist may be seen emitted from the indoor unit. This results from the sudden Cooling of room air by the air emitted from the air conditioner, resulting in condensation and misting.

Air flow is weak or stops:
Water is produced from the outdoor unit:
*During Heating operation, the outdoor unit’s fan may stop, and
steam may be seen rising from the unit. This is due to Automatic Defrosting operation.
*When Heating operation is started, fan speed is temporarily very
low, to allow internal parts to warm up.
*During Heating operation, if the room temperature rises above
the thermostat setting, the outdoor unit will stop, and the indoor unit will operate at very low fan speed. If you wish to warm the room further, set the thermostat for a higher setting.
*During Heating operation, the unit will temporarily stop opera-
tion (between 2 and 16 minutes) as the Automatic Defrosting mode operates. During Automatic Defrosting operation, DEFROST will be shown on the remote controller display.
The fan may operate at very low speed when the unit is monitor­ing the room’s temperature.
In the monitor AUTO operation, the fan will operate at very low speed.
*During Heating operation, water may be produced from the out-
door unit due to Automatic Defrosting operation.
