Dry-cell batteries

■ Reference for replacing batteries

Replace the batteries with new AAA alkaline batteries in the following cases:

·When the indoor unit does not respond to the remote control signal.

·When the display on the remote controller becomes dim.

·When a button of the remote controller is pressed, all displays appear on the screen, and then disappear immediately.

Do not use manganese batteries. The remote controller could malfunction.

The service life of an alkaline battery is about 1 year. However, a battery whose time limit is approaching may be exhausted soon. The recommended usable time limit is indicated (month/year) on the bottom of the battery.

To prevent liquid leakage, take out all batteries when the remote controller is not going to be used for a long time.

CAUTION:

If liquid from the batteries gets onto your skin or clothes, wash it well with clean water.

If liquid from the batteries gets into your eyes, wash them well with clean water and consult a doctor at once.

Do not use rechargeable batteries.

Replace the 2 batteries with new ones of the same type.

Dispose of exhausted batteries in the correct manner.

When the remote controller cannot be used (emergency operation)

When the batteries of the remote controller run out or the remote controller malfunctions, the emergency operation

can be done using the EMERGENCY OPERATION switch.

1 Press the EMERGENCY OPERATION switch.

Each time the EMERGENCY OPERATION switch is pressed, the unit will operate in order of EMERGENCY COOL MODE, EMERGENCY HEAT MODE and STOP MODE.

However, when the EMERGENCY OPERATION switch is once pressed, the unit will operate in test run for 30 minutes and then the operation mode shifts to EMERGENCY MODE.

Details of EMERGENCY MODE are as shown below. However, the temperature control does not work for 30 minutes in test run and the unit is set to continuous operation. The fan speed is set to High in test run and shifts to Medium after 30 minutes.
