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.

To Stop Operation

Press the START/STOP button (Fig. 5 R).

The OPERATION Indicator Lamp (green) (Fig. 3 6) will go out.

About AUTO CHANGEOVER Operation

AUTO: ● When AUTO CHANGEOVER operation first selected, the fan will oper-

ate at very low speed for about one minute, during which time the unit
detects the room conditions and selects the proper operating mode.

If the differance between thermostat setting and actual room tempera­ture is more than +2 °C → Cooling or dry operation

If the difference between thermostat setting and actual room tempera­ture is within ±2 °C → Monitor operation
If the difference between thermostat setting and actual room tempera­ture is more than –2 °C → Heating operation

● 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.

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.
