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 frequency of the compressor.
* If the room temperature is 2°C higher than a set temperature, the compressor operation
frequency will attain to maximum performance.
* If the room temperature is 2.5°C lower than a set temperature, the compressor will be
stopped.
* When the room temperature is between +2°C to -2.5°C of the setting temperature,
the compressor frequency is controlled within the range shown in Table1.
However, the maximum frequency is limited in the range shown in Figure 1 based on the
fan speed mode and the outdoor temperature.

2. HEATING OPERATION
2-1 HEATING 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 frequency of the compressor.
* If the room temperature is lower by 3°C than a set temperature, the compressor operation
frequency will attain to maximum performance.
* If the room temperature is higher 2.5°C than a set temperatire, the compressor will be stopped.
* When the room temperature is between +2.5°C to -3°C of the setting temperature,
the compressor frequency is controlled within the range shown in Table2.
However, the maximum frequency is limited in the range shown in Figure 2 based on the
fan speed mode and the outdoor temperature.

4. AUTO CHANGEOVER OPERATION
When the air conditioner is set to the AUTO mode by remote control, operation starts in the optimum
mode from among the HEATING, COOLING, DRY and MONITORING modes. During operation, the
optimum mode is automatically switched in accordance with temperature changes. The temperature
can be set between 18°C and 30°C in 1°C steps.
When operation starts, only the indoor and outdoor fans are operated for 1 minute. After 1 minute,

the room temperature and outside air temperature are sensed and the operation mode is
selected in accordance with the table below.

The airflow can be switched in 5 steps such as AUTO, QUIET, LOW, MED, HIGH,
while the indoor fan only runs.
When Fan mode is set at (Auto), it operates on (MED) Fan Speed.
3. COOLING OPERATION
Switch the airflow [AUTO], and the indoor fan motor will run according to a room temperature,
as shown in Figure 6.
On the other hand, if switched in [HIGH] [QUIET], the indoor motor will run at a constant airflow of [COOL]
operation modes QUIET, LOW, MED, HIGH,as shown in Table 6.

7. LOUVER CONTROL
1. LOUVER CONTROL
When the indoor control interface device receives a control signal light from the remote control,
it will actuate, the step motor according to the control signal, and set the louver to each position.
In addition, if the air conditioner is stopped, vertical louver will be closed automatically.
Vertical Air Direction Adjustment
(Function Range)
Each time the button is pressed, the air direction range will change as follow:
(Fig 9: Air Direction Range)
(Operation Range)
Cooling / Dry mode
Heating mode
Fan mode
Use the air direction adjustments within the ranges shown above.
Horizontal Air Direction Adjustment
(Function Range)
Each time the button is pressed, the air direction range will change as follow:
6
The vertical airflow direction is set automatically as shown, in accordance with the type of operation
selected.
When the temperature of the air being blown out is low at the start of heating operation or during
defrosting, the airflow direction temporarily becomesto 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
4
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 hating range for more than 20minutes, they will automatically
return to position.
During Monitor operation in AUTO CHANGEOVER mode, the airflow direction automatically
becomes, the horizontal airflow direction does not cahnge, and it cannot be adjusted.
