What is “Nano platinum fi lter”?
Nano platinum is a ceramic particle that includes a platinum nanoparticle. The particles are incorporated into the fi lter material, which results
in providing semi-permanent antibacterial and deodorizing characteristics for the fi lter. Nano platinum surpasses the catechin (a biofl avonoid
that is found in green tea) in performance. Nano platinum fi lter uses this
compound not only to improve air quality but also to eliminate bacteria
and viruses. This air fi lter has a semi-permanent lasting effect even after
washing it with water.
Important
• Clean the fi lters regularly for best performance and to
reduce power consumption.
• Dirty fi lters cause condensation in the air conditioner
which will contribute to the growth of fungi such as
mold. It is therefore recommended to clean air fi lters
every 2 weeks.

● OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS ●
WHEN YOU THINK THAT TROUBLE HAS OCCURRED
Even if these items are checked, when the unit does not recover from the
trouble, stop using the air conditioner and consult your dealer.
Symptom Explanation & Check points
Indoor Unit
The unit cannot be operated. • Is the breaker turned on?
The unit cannot be operated for
about 3 minutes when restarted.
Mist is discharged from the air
outlet of the indoor unit.
The swing operation of the
HORIZONTAL VANE is
suspended for a while, then
restarted.
The air fl ow direction changes
during operation.
The direction of the horizontal
vane/multi-fl ow vane cannot
be adjusted with the remote
controller.
The operation is stopped for
about 10 minutes in the heating
operation.
The unit starts operation by
itself when the main power is
turned on, though it isn’t operated with the remote controller.
The multi-fl ow vane opens and
closes automatically.
The indoor unit discolors over
time.
Multi system
The indoor unit which is not
operating becomes warm and a
sound, similar to water fl owing,
is heard from the unit.
When heating operation is
selected, operation does not
start right away.
Outdoor Unit
The fan of the outdoor unit
does not rotate even though the
compressor is running. Even if
the fan starts to rotate, it stops
soon.
Water leaks from the outdoor
unit.
White smoke is discharged from
the outdoor unit.
• Is the power supply plug connected?
• Is the ON timer set?
• This protects the unit according to instructions
from the microprocessor. Please wait.
• The cool air from the unit rapidly cools moisture
in the air inside the room, and it turns into mist.
• This is for the swing operation of the HORIZONTAL VANE to be performed normally.
• In the heating operation, if the air fl ow temperature is too low or when defrosting is being
done, the horizontal vane is automatically set
to vertical position. The multi-fl ow vane is set to
the closed position.
• When the air conditioner is operated in COOL
or DRY mode, if the operation continues with air
blowing horizontally for 1 hour, the direction of
the air fl ow is automatically set to position (1)
to prevent condensed water from dropping. The
multi-fl ow vane is set to the closed position.
• The horizontal vane and the multi-fl ow vane
automatically moves in certain intervals to
determine its position, and then it returns to the
set position.
• Defrosting of the outdoor unit is being done.
Since this is completed in max.10 minutes,
please wait. (When the outside temperature is
too low and humidity is too high, frost is formed.)
• These models are equipped with an auto
restart function. When the main power is
turned off without stopping the unit with the
remote controller and is turned on again, the
unit starts operation automatically in the same
mode as the one set with the remote controller just before the shutoff of the main power.
Refer to “Auto restart function”. Page 5
• The multi-fl ow vane is automatically controlled
by a microcomputer according to the air fl ow
temperature and operation time of the air conditioner.
• Although plastic turns yellow due to the infl uence
of some factors such as ultraviolet light and
temperature, this has no effect on the product
functions.
• A small amount of refrigerant continues to fl ow
into the indoor unit even though it is not operating.
• When operation is started during defrosting of
outdoor unit is done, it takes a few minutes (max.
10 minutes) to blow out warm air.
• When the outside temperature is low during
cooling operation, the fan operates intermittently
to maintain suffi cient cooling capacity.
• During COOL and DRY operations, pipe or pipe
connecting sections are cooled and this causes
water to condense.
• In the heating operation, water condensed on
the heat exchanger drips down.
• In the heating operation, the defrosting operation
makes water frozen on the outdoor unit melt and
drip down.
• In the heating operation, vapor generated by the
defrosting operation looks like white smoke.

• It may take a certain time to reach the setting
temperature or may not reach that depending on
the size of the room, the ambient temperature,
and the like.
• When a ventilation fan or a gas cooker is used
in a room, the cooling load increases, resulting
in an insuffi cient cooling effect.
• When the outside temperature is high, the
cooling effect may not be suffi cient.
• When the outside temperature is low, the heating effect may not be suffi cient.
• Please wait as the unit is preparing to blow out
warm air.
