Displayed when TURBO function is selected in cooling or in heating modes. This air conditioner is equipped with an ionizer, which generates ions to remove microscopic particles from the air. Rooms become healthier for those suffering from asthma or allergies with the use of this feature.
Displays the current set temperature when the air conditioner is in operation. When SELF CLEAN feature is activated, its displays “SC”.
Remote Controller Features - Ductless High Wall Mount. ONLY
The remote controller comes with a FOLLOW ME feature which allows the remote controller to act as a thermostat. This allows the unit to sense the temperature at the location of the remote controller, rather than sensing the temperature at the indoor unit. The indoor unit is installed high on a wall, thus the thermostat on the remote controller will provide a more accurate temperature reading for the room. Consult the remote controller manual for more information. NOTE: The ceiling cassette does NOT come with this feature.
