FEATURES AND FUNCTIONS
INVERTER
At the start of operation, a large 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.
COIL DRY OPERATION
The Indoor unit can be dried by pressing the COIL DRY but­ton on the Remote Control Unit so as to avoid going moldy and restrain the breed of bacterium.
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.
10°C HEAT OPERATION
The room temperature can be maintained at 10°C so as to prevent the room temperature from falling too far.
PROGRAM TIMER
The program timer allows you to integrate OFF timer and ON timer operations in a single sequence. The sequence can involve one transition from OFF timer to ON timer, or from ON timer to OFF timer, within a twenty-four hour pe­riod.
SLEEP TIMER
SWING OPERATION
The Air Flow Direction Louvers swings automatically up and down so that the air speeds to every nook and corner of your room.
REMOVABLE OPEN PANEL
The indoor unit’s Open Panel 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.
SUPER QUIET OPERATION
When the FAN CONTROL button is used to select QUIET, the unit begins super-quiet operation; the indoor unit’s air­flow is reduced to produce quieter operation.
POLYPHENOL CATECHIN AIR CLEANING FILTER
The polyphenol catechin air cleaning filter uses static elec­tricity to clean the air of fine particles and dust 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 by the filter. Note that when the air cleaning filter is installed, the amount of air produced decreases, causing a slight decrease in the air conditioner's performance.
When the SLEEP button is pressed during Heating mode, the air conditioner’s thermostat setting is gradually lowered during the period of operation; during cooling mode, the thermostat setting is gradually raised during the period of operation. When the set time is reached, the unit automati­cally turns off.
WIRELESS REMOTE CONTROL UNIT
The Wireless Remote Control Unit allows convenient con­trol of air conditioner operation.
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.

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 ±2 °C relative to the thermostat set­ting.)
If the mode automatically selected by the unit is not what you wish, select one of the mode operation (HEAT, COOL, DRY, FAN).
About Mode Operation
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 Automatic Defrosting operation, the OPERATION Indica­tor Lamp (Fig. 3 6) will flash, and the heat operation will be inter­rupted.
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.

tergent 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 weeks.

TROUBLESHOOTING
WARNING!
Before requesting service, perform the following checks:
NORMAL
FUNCTION
Doesn’t operate immedi­ately:
Noise is heard:
Smells:
In the event of a malfunction (burning smell, etc.), immediately stop operation, turn off the elec­trical breaker or disconnect the power supply plug, 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 or disconnect the power supply plug to ensure that power is completely off.
Symptom
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 than on again or the
power supply plug is disconnected and then reconnected, 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 front cover due to temperature changes.
During Heating operation, a sizzling sound may be heard occasional.
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.
Problem

Mist or steam are emitted:
Airflow is weak or stops:
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 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 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 opera­tion (between 7 and 15 minutes) as the Automatic Defrosting mode operates. During Automatic Defrosting operation, the OPERATION Indicator Lamp will flash.
The fan may operate at very low speed during Dry operation or when the unit is monitoring the room’s temperature.
During SUPER QUIET operation, the fan will operate at very low speed.
In the monitor AUTO operation, the fan will operate at very low speed.

Problem
The damper is automatically controlled by a microcomputer ac­cording to the air flow temperature and operation time of the air conditioner.
Items to check
Has there been a power failure?
Has a fuse blown out, or a circuit breaker been tripped?
Is the timer operating?
Is the Air Filter dirty?
Air the air conditioner’s intake grille or outlet port blocked?
Did you adjust the room temperature settings (thermostat) cor-
rectly?
Is there a window or door open?
In the case of Cooling operation, is a window allowing bright sun-
light to enter? (Close the curtains.)
In the case of Cooling operation, are there heating apparatus and computers inside the room, or are there too many people in the room?
Make sure the lower air outlet is not choked with foreign matters, causing abnormal operation to damper.
Is the unit set for SUPER QUIET operation?

The unit operates differently from the Remote Control Unit’s setting:
If the problem persists after performing these checks, or if you notice burning smells, or the OPERATION Indicator Lamp (Fig. 3 6) and the TIMER Indicator Lamp (Fig. 3 7) flashes, immediately stop operation, and consult authorized service personnel.
When the OPERATION Indicator Lamp (Fig.3 6) and the 10°C HEAT Indicator Lamp (Fig.3 8) flashes, the operation can be
maintained temporary by changing of air outlet selection switch to STOP button.
(If the damper does not close automatically, close the damper manually and fix the position by an adhesive tape etc.) The unit operates almost the same as upper air flow operation, however the indicator lamp flashes continuously if same symptom is detected again. Therefore, consult an authorized service personnel for the complete functional repair.
Are the Remote Control Unit’s batteries dead?
Are the Remote Control Unit’s batteries loaded properly?

OPERATING TIPS
Operation and Performance
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 insufficient heating performance is being produced, we recommend you use this air conditioner in conjunction with another kind 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 first starting the air con­ditioner until the room is heated.
AUTO Restart
In Event of Power Interruption
The air conditioner power has been interrupted by a power failure. The air conditioner will then restart auto­matically in its previous mode when the power is restored.
Operated by setting before the power failure.
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. If frost forms, the air condi­tioner will temporarily stop, and the defrosting circuit will operate briefly (for about 7-15 minutes).
During Automatic Defrosting operation, the OPERATION Indicator Lamp (green) will flash.
If a power failure occurs during TIMER operation, the timer will be reset and the 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 flash (see Page. 3).
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 disconnect the Power Supply Plug, reconnect it, and then use the Remote Control Unit to resume operation.

If the air conditioner is used under higher temperature conditioner than those listed, the built-in protection circuit may operate to prevent internal circuit damage. Also, during Cooling and Dry modes, if the unit is used under conditions of lower temperature than those listed above, the heat-exchanger may freeze, leading to water leakage and other damage.
Do not use this unit for any purposes other than the Cooling, Dehumidifying, and air-circulation of rooms in ordinary dwellings.
If the unit is used for long periods under high-humidity conditions, condensation may form on the surface of the indoor unit, and drip onto the floor or other objects underneath. (About 80% or more)

Multi-type Air conditioner
This indoor unit can be connected to a multi-type outdoor unit. The multi-type air conditioner allows multiple indoor units to be operated in multiple locations. The indoor units may be operated simultaneously, in accordance with their respective output.
En-17
OPERATING TIPS
Simultaneous Use of Multiple Units
When using a multi-type air conditioner, the multiple indoor units can be operated simultaneously, but when two or more indoor units of the same group are oper­ated simultaneously, the heating and cooling efficiency will be less than when a single indoor unit is used alone. Accordingly, when you wish to use more than one in­door unit for cooling at the same time, the use should be concentrated at night and other times when less out­put is required. In the same way, when multiple units are used simultaneously for heating, it is recommended that they be used in conjunction with other auxiliary space heaters, as required.
Seasonal and outdoor temperature conditions, the struc­ture of the rooms and the number of persons present may also result in differences of operating efficiency. We recommend that you try various operating patterns in order to confirm the level of heating and cooling out­put provided by your units, and use the units in the way that best matches your family’s lifestyle.
If you discover that one or more units delivers a low level of cooling or heating during simultaneous opera­tion, we recommend that you stop simultaneous opera­tion of the multiple units.
Operation cannot be done in the following different op­erating modes.
If the indoor unit is instructed to do an operating mode that it cannot perform, the OPERATION indicator lamp (green) on the indoor unit will flash (1 second on, 1 sec­ond off) and the unit will go into the standby mode.
Heating (COIL DRY) mode and cooling mode (or dry mode)
Heating (COIL DRY) mode and fan mode
Operation can be done in the following different operat­ing modes.
Cooling mode and dry mode
Cooling mode and fan mode
Dry mode and fan mode
Heating mode and COIL DRY mode
The operating mode (heating (COIL DRY) mode or cool­ing (dry) mode) of the outdoor unit will be determined by the operating mode of the indoor unit that was oper­ated first. If the indoor unit was started in fan mode, the operating mode of the outdoor unit will not be deter­mined.
For example, if indoor unit (A) was started in fan mode and then indoor unit (B) was then operated in heating mode, indoor unit (A) would temporarily start opera­tion in fan mode but when indoor unit (B) started oper­ating in heating mode, the OPERATION indicator lamp (green) for indoor unit (A) would begin to flash (1 second on, 1 second off) and it would go into standby mode. Indoor unit (B) would continue to operate in heating mode.
Notice
During use of the heating mode, the outdoor unit will occasionally commence the defrost operation for brief periods. During the defrosting operation, if the user sets the indoor unit for heating again, the defrosting mode will continue, and the heating operation will begin after completion of defrosting, with the result that some time may be required before warm air is emitted.
During use of the heating mode, the top of the indoor unit may become warm, but this is due to the fact that coolant is circulated through the indoor unit even when it is stopped; it is not a malfunction.
