FEATURES AND FUNCTIONS
Energy saving and Comfortable function
INVERTER
At the start of operation, large amount of power is used to bring the room quickly to the desired temperature. Afterward, the air conditioner automatically switches to a low power set­ting for economic and comfortable operation.
ECONOMY OPERATION
When ECONOMY operation mode is operated, the room tem­perature will be little higher than the set-temp under cooling mode. Therefore, the ECONOMY mode is able to save more energy than other normal mode.
SWING OPERATION
The Airflow Direction Louvers swings automatically up and down so that the air speeds to every nook and corner of your room.
AUTO CHANGEOVER
The operation mode (cooling and dry) is switched automati­cally to maintain the set temperature, and the temperature is kept constant at all times.
SUPER QUIET OPERATION
The indoor unit’s air ow is reduced to produce quieter operation.
Convenient function
PROGRAM TIMER
The program timer allows you to integrate OFF timer and ON timer operations in a single sequence. The sequence can involve 1 transition from OFF timer to ON timer, or from ON timer to OFF timer, within a 24 hour period.
SLEEP TIMER
When the SLEEP button is pressed during cooling mode, the temperature setting is gradually raised during the period of operation. When the set time is reached, the indoor unit auto­matically turns off.
Clean function
REMOVABLE INTAKE GRILLE
The indoor unit’s Intake Grille can be removed for easy clean­ing and maintenance.
MILDEW-RESISTANT FILTER
The Air Filter has been treated to resist mildew growth, thus al­lowing cleaner use and easier care.
POLYPHENOL CATECHIN AIR CLEANING FILTER
The Polyphenol Catechin Air Cleaning  lter uses static elec­tricity to clean  ne particles and dust in the air such as tobacco smoke and plant pollen that are too small to see. The filter contains catechin, which is highly effective against various bacteria by suppressing the growth of the bacteria adsorbed to the  lter. Note that when the Air Cleaning Filter is installed, the amount of air produced decreases, causing a slight decrease in the indoor unit’s performance.
NEGATIVE AIR IONS DEODORIZING FILTER
It comprises pottery super micro particles which can produce negative air ions having the effect of deodorizing and can ab­sorb and remit the peculiar smell at home.

OPERATING TIPS
Temperature and Humidity Range
Permissible ranges of temperature and humidity are as follows:
Cooling/Dry Operation
Outdoor temperature About 18 °C to 46 °C
Indoor temperature About 18 °C to 32 °C
Indoor humidity
Below approximately 80%. If the air conditioner is used continuously for many hours, water may condense on the sur­face and drip.
If the unit is used under higher temperature conditions than those noted here, the automatic protection circuit may operate, interrupting the operation. If the unit is used under lower temperature conditions than those noted here, the heat exchanger may freeze, causing water leakage or other malfunction.
Do not use the air conditioner for any purpose other than cooling or drying room, or fan.
AUTO Restart
In Event of Power Interruption
The power supply to the air conditioner is stopped by a power interruption. The air conditioner will then restart automatically in its
previous mode when the power is restored.
If a power interruption occurs during TIMER operation, the timer will be reset and the indoor unit will begin (or stop) operation at the new time setting. In the event that this kind of timer fault occurs, the TIMER Indicator Lamp will  ash (See page 4.)
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 and then use the Remote Controller to resume op­eration.

TROUBLESHOOTING
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.
Before requesting service, perform the following checks:
Symptom Problem

NORMAL
FUNCTION
Doesn’t operate immediately:
If the indoor 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.
Noise is heard:
During operation or immediately after stopping the unit, the sound of water  owing 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 refrigerant  owing).
During operation, a slight squeaking sound may be heard. This is
the result of minute expansion and contraction of the front panel due to temperature changes.
Smells:
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 indoor unit.
Mist or steam is emitted:
During Cooling or Dry operation, a thin mist may be seen emitted
from the indoor unit. This results from the sudden Cooling of room air by the cool air emitted from the indoor unit, resulting in con­densation and misting.
Air ow is weak or stops:
During Dry mode, the indoor unit will operate at low speed; in or-
der to adjust room humidity, the indoor unit’s fan may stop from time to time. Also, the fan may operate at very low speed when adjusting room humidity.

During SUPER QUIET operation, the fan will operate at very low speed.
