FEATURES AND FUNCTIONS
INVERTER
At the start of operation, large amount of power is used to bring the room quickly to the desired temperature. After­wards, the unit 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 and lower than set-temp under heating mode. Therefore, the ECONOMY mode is able to save more energy than other normal mode.
SUPER QUIET OPERATION
When the FAN button is used to select QUIET, the indoor unit begins super-quiet operation; the indoor unit’s airfl ow is reduced to produce quieter operation.
AUTO CHANGEOVER
The operation mode (cooling, dry, heating) is switched automatically to maintain the set temperature, and the temperature is kept constant at all times.
Convenient function
WEEKLY TIMER
Use this timer function to set operating times for each day of the week. Use the DAY OFF setting to switch off timed operation for a selected day in the coming week. Because all days can be set together, the weekly timer can be used to repeat the timer settings for all of the days.
TEMPERATURE SET BACK TIMER
Use this timer function to change the set temperature in the operation times set for each day of the week. This can be used together with other timer settings.
REMOVABLE AIR FILTER
The indoor unit’s air fi lter can be removed for easy cleaning and maintenance.

CLEANING AND CARE
Cleaning the Air Filter
Before cleaning the unit, be sure to stop the unit and disconnect the power supply.
Turn off the electrical breaker.
A fan operates at high speed inside the unit, and personal injury could result.
When used for extended periods, the unit may accumulate dirt inside, reducing its performance. We recommend that
the unit be inspected regularly, in addition to your own cleaning and care. For more information, consult authorized service personnel.
When cleaning the unit’s body, do not use water hotter than 104 °F, harsh abrasive cleansers, or volatile agents like
benzene or thinner.
Do not expose the unit body to liquid insecticides or hairsprays.
If the unit will not be operated for a period of 1 month or more, be sure to allow the inner parts of the unit to dry thor-
oughly, in advance, by operating the unit in fan mode for half a day.
Remove the dust from the air fi lters by vacuuming or washing them. After washing, allow the air fi lters to dry thoroughly in an area protected from sunlight.
Dust can be cleaned from the air fi lter either with a vacuum cleaner, or by washing the fi lter in a solution of mild deter­gent and warm water. If you wash the fi lter, be sure to allow it to dry thoroughly in a shady place before reinstalling.
If dirt is allowed to accumulate on the air fi lter, air fl ow will be reduced, lowering operating effi ciency and increasing noise.
CAUTION!
ECONOMY OPERATION
Begin Air Conditioner operation before performing this procedure.
To Use the ECONOMY Operation
Press the ECONOMY button.
The ECONOMY display will light. ECONOMY operation begins.
To Stop the ECONOMY Operation
Press the ECONOMY button again.
The ECONOMY display will go out. Normal operation begins.
About ECONOMY Operation
At the maximum output, ECONOMY Operation is approximately 70% of normal air conditioner operation for cooling and heating.
If the room is not cooled (or heated) well during ECONOMY operation, select normal operation.
During the monitor period in the AUTO mode, the air conditioner operation will not change to ECONOMY operation
even if ECONOMY operation is selected by pressing the ECONOMY operation button.
When ECONOMY operation mode is operated, the room temperature will be little higher than the set-temp under cool-
ing mode and lower than set-temp under heating mode. Therefore, the ECONOMY mode is able to save more energy than other normal mode.

TROUBLESHOOTING
Instructions relating to heating (*) are applicable only to “HEAT & COOL MODEL” (Reverse Cycle).
WARNING!
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 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 and immediately after stopping the unit, the sound of water fl 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 coolant fl owing)
.
* During Heating operation, a sizzling sound may be heard
occasionally. This sound is produced by the Automatic Defrosting operation.
14
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 air conditioner.
Mist or steam are emitted:
 During Cooling or Dry operation, a thin mist may be seen emit-
ted 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.
* During Heating operation, the outdoor unit’s fan may stop, and
steam may be seen rising from the unit. This is due to the Auto­matic Defrosting operation.
14
Airfl ow is weak or stops:
* 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 to a higher setting.
* During Heating operation, the unit will temporarily stop opera-
tion (between 4 and 15 minutes) as the Automatic Defrosting mode operates. During the Automatic Defrosting operation,
will be shown on the remote controller display.
14
The fan may operate at very low speed during Dry operation or
when the unit is monitoring the room’s temperature.
In case of Multi-type unit, if multiple units are operated in
different operation modes as shown below, the units operated afterward will stop and
will be shown on the remote
controller display of the stopped indoor units. Heating mode and cooling mode (or dry mode) Heating mode and fan mode

OPERATING TIPS
Instructions relating to heating (*) are applicable only to “HEAT & COOL MODEL” (Reverse Cycle).
Low Ambient Cooling
When the outdoor temperature drops, the outdoor unit’s
fans may switch to Low Speed, or 1 of the fans may stop intermittently.
Dual Remote Controllers (optional)
An additional remote controller can be added up to the maximum of 2 remote controllers. Either remote controller can control the air conditioner. However, the timer functions cannot be used at the secondary unit.
Group Control
1 remote controller can control up to 16 air conditioners. All of the air conditioners will be operated with the same settings.
Group control cannot be used when using it by the multi type.
*Heating Performance
This air conditioner operates on the heat-pump principle,
absorbing heat from outdoor air and transferring that heat indoors. As a result, the operating performance is reduced as outdoor air temperature drops. If you feel that insuffi cient heating performance is being produced, we recommend you use this air conditioner in conjunction with another type of heating appliance.
Heat-pump air conditioners heat your entire room by
recirculating air throughout the room, with the result that some time may be required after fi rst starting the air conditioner until the room is heated.
*When Indoor and Outdoor Temperature 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.
*Microcomputer-controlled Automatic Defrosting
When using the Heating mode under conditions of low
outdoor temperature and high humidity, frost may form on the outdoor unit, resulting in reduced operating per­formance.
In order to prevent this kind of reduced performance,
this unit is equipped with a Microcomputer-controlled Automatic Defrosting function. During the defrost cycle, the indoor fan will shutdown and
will be displayed on the remote controller. It will take anywhere from 4 to 15 minutes before the air conditioner starts up again.
After heating operation stops, if frost forms on the outdoor
unit, the unit will start Automatic Defrosting operation.
At this time, the outdoor unit will automatically stop after
operating for a few minutes.

OPERATING TIPS
Mode operation: AUTO
About Mode Operation
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/Dry mode:
Set the thermostat to a temperature set­ting that is lower than the current room temperature. The Cooling and Dry modes will not operate if the thermostat is set higher than the actual room temperature (in Cooling mode, the fan alone will ope­rate).
During Fan mode:
You can not use the unit to heat and cool your room.
* 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 beginning full operation.
When the room temperature is very low, frost may form on the out-
side 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 Automatic Defrosting operation, the heat opera­tion will be interrupted.
After the start of heating operation, it takes sometime before the
room gets warmer.
Cooling:
 Use to cool your room.
Dry:
Use for gently cooling while dehumidifying your room.
You cannot heat the room during Dry mode.
During Dry mode, the unit will operate at low speed; in order 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.
The fan speed cannot be changed manually when Dry mode has
been selected.
Fan:
Use to circulate the air throughout your room.
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.
When the room temperature is near the thermostat set-
ting, the air conditioner will begin monitor operation. In the monitor operation mode, the fan will operate at a very low speed. If the room temperature subsequently changes, the air conditioner will once again select the appropriate operation (Heating or Cooling) to adjust the temperature to the value set in the thermostat.
