1 . DESCRIPTION OF EACH

CONTROL OPERATION

1-1. COOLING AND DRY OPERATION

1-1-1. COOLING AND DRY CAPACITY CONTROL

A sensor (room temperature thermistor) built in the indoor unit body will usually perceive difference or variation between a set temperature and present room temperature, and controls the operation speed of the compressor.

The outdoor unit operates according to the highest request capacity of indoor unit to meet the demand capacity of all the indoor units. The capacity control of the low request capacity indoor unit is controlled by Branch box EEV.

( Table 1 : Compressor speed range )

1-3. AUTO CHANGEOVER OPERATION

When the air conditioner is set to the Auto mode by remote controller, operation starts in the optimum mode from among the Heating, Cooling, Dry and Monitoring mode. During operation, the optimum mode is automatically switched in accordance with temperature changes. The temperature can be set between 64°F(18°C) and 88°F(30°C) in 2°F(1°C) steps.

When operation starts, indoor fan and outdoor fan are operated for around 3 minutes.

Room temperature and outdoor temperature are sensed, and the operation mode is selected

in accordance with the table below. <Monitoring mode>

(1). Same operation mode is selected as outdoor unit.

If outdoor unit is operating in Cooling, Dry, and Heating mode, indoor unit will be operated by the same operation mode.

(2). Selected by the outdoor temperature.

If outdoor unit is operating in other than Cooling, Dry, and Heating mode, indoor unit will be operated according to the outdoor temperature as below.

When the room temperature has remained at set temperature -3°F(-1.5°C), operation is automatically switched to Dry mode. If the room temperature reaches set temperature +4°F(+2°C) during Dry mode, operation returns to Cooling.

For Compact Wall Mounted Type, Wall Mounted Type < ASU7/ 9/ 12/ 18/ 24RLF >

1. VERTICAL LOUVER CONTROL

(Function Range)

Each time the button is pressed, the air direction range will change as follow:

(Table9 : Recommended Operation Range)

Cooling / Heating / Dry mode / Fan mode

(Fig.12 : Virtical Air Direction Range)

Vertical Louver

Power DiffuserVertical Louver

Use the air direction adjustments within the ranges shown above.

The vertical airflow direction is set automatically as shown, in accordance with the type of operation selected.

Cooling / Dry mode : Horizontal flow Heating mode : Downward flow ASU7/9/12: , ASU18/24:

When the temperature of the air being blown out is low at the start of heating operation or during defrosting, the airflow direction temporarily becomes to prevent cold air being blown onto the body.

During use of the Cooling and Dry modes, do not set the Air Flow Direction Louver in the Heating range ( ) for long period of time, since water vapor many condense near the outlet louvers and drop of water may drip from the air conditioner. During the Cooling and Dry modes, if the Air Flow Direction Louvers are left in the heating range for around 30 minutes, they will automatically return to position .

2. HORIZONTAL LOUVER CONTROL (For ASU18/ 24RLF)

If the sleep is set, the room temperature is monitored and the operation is stopped automatically. If the operation mode or the set temperature is change after the sleep timer is set, the operation is continued according to the changed setting of the sleep timer from that time ON.

In the cooling operation mode

When the sleep timer is set, the setting temperature is increased 2 F(1 C). It increases the setting temperature another 2 F(1 C) after 1 hour. After that, the setting temperature is not changed and the operation is stopped at the time of timer setting.

< Pre-test run check items >

Before the test run, refer to the figure and check the following items.

1. Is check run performed? Test run doesn't operate if check run is not performed. After checking that the above items are all in order, refer to Test run method "to test run the unit. If there are problems, adjust immediately and recheck.

< Test run method >

Be sure to configure test run settings only when the outdoor unit has stopped operating.

Depending on the communication status between the indoor and outdoor units, it may take several minutes for • the system to start operating after settings for the test run are complete. After the test run settings are complete, all the outdoor units and the connected indoor units will start operating. • Room temperature control will not activate during test run (continuous operation). Test run set with the outdoor unit doesn't stop automatically. Be sure to stop the operation according to the • operation method. All indoor units will operate when test run is performed from the outdoor unit. At this time, the remote controller of • the indoor unit is unavailable. Operation mode cannot be changed during the test run. To change the operation mode, please stop the test run •

first, and then perform the test run again. At this time, the compressor cannot be restarted for three minutes after

it stops in order to protect the indoor unit. Please restarte it after three minutes.

With Wired Remote Controller

Under the condition where the air conditioner stops, press the MODE button and the FAN button simultaneously for 2 seconds or more, and the test operation control mode will appear.

During test running, " " will display on the remote controller display. Set the test operation mode, and the compressor will continue to run regardless of whatever the room temperature sensor detects.

With Wireless Remote Controller

Under the condition where the air conditioner runs, press the TEST RUN button, and the test operation control mode will appear. During test running, the Operation LED and Timer LED of the air conditioner body blinks simultaneously. Set the test operation mode, and the compressor will continue to run regardless of whether the room temperature sensor detects.

With Outdoor Unit

All the indoor units connected to the outdoor unit can be test-operated by push button as next page.

01-18

Perform test run for refrigerant system. You can set “cooling test run” or “heating test run” with the push-button switch on the outdoor unit print circuit board.
