CONVENIENT INFORMATION
COOL For effective cooling
1 Close the windows and pull
down blinds. Sunshine is reduced and cooling efficiency
increases.
HEATComfortable warmth depends on the temperature difference between the indoor and
the outdoor.
It is recommended that the set temperature in the heating operation does not differ from the external temperature too much. Though there is a regional difference, as a reference, a set temperature between about
22°C and 24°C is most suitable.
DRYThe humidity at which people feel comfortable
When air contains too much moisture, people feel uncomfortable. Humidity is related to temperature and
wind. The humidity at which people feel comfortable is 60% - 75% RH in summer, 55% - 70% RH in winter.
2 Paste a heat shield film (gen-
erally available) on the window.
Heat entering the room is reduced.
3 Block the outdoor unit from di-
rect sunlight. This saves energy.

Even if the above items are checked, when the air conditioner does not recover from the trouble, stop using the
air conditioner and consult your dealer.
In the following cases, stop operation and consult your dealer.
■ The remote control signal may
not be received in a room where
an electronic ON/OFF type fluorescent lamp (inverter-type fluorescent lamp, etc.) is used.
■ In the region where the electric
wave is weak, when the air conditioner is operated, noise may
be generated in radio reception.
■ When thunder is heard, stop operation and disconnect the
power supply plug or turn off the
breaker. Otherwise, the electrical
parts may be damaged.

WHEN YOU THINK THAT TROUBLE HAS OCCURRED
The air conditioner
cannot be operated
for about 3 minutes
when restarted.
Cracking sound is
heard.
The room smells
strange.
The sound of water
flowing is heard.
Question
Answer (not a malfunction)
■ This protects the air conditioner according to instructions from the microprocessor. Please wait.
■ This sound is generated by the expansion/contraction of the front panel, etc. due to change in
temperature.
■ The air conditioner sucks in an odor adhering to
the wall, carpet, furniture, cloth, etc. and blows it
out with the air.
■ This is the sound of refrigerant flowing inside the
air conditioner.
■ This is the sound of condensed water flowing in
the heat exchanger.
■ This is the sound of the heat exchanger defrosting.
Mechanical sound is
heard from the indoor
unit.
The air flow direction changes during
operation.
Water leak from the
outdoor unit.
Air does not blow
out soon in the heating operation.
Question
Answer (not a malfunction)
■ This is the switching sound in turning on/off the
fan or the compressor.
■ When the air conditioner is operated in COOL or
DRY mode, if the operation continues with air
blowing down for 1 hour, the direction of the air
flow is automatically set to horizontal to prevent
condensed water from dropping.
■ In the heating operation, if the air flow temperature is too low or when defrosting is being done,
the horizontal vane position is automatically set
to horizontal.
■ During COOL and DRY operations, pipe or pipe
connecting sections are cooled and this causes
water to condense.
■ In the heating operation, the defrosting operation makes water frozen on the outdoor unit melt
and drip down.
■ In the heating operation, water condensed on the
heat exchanger drips down.
■ Please wait as the air conditioner is preparing to
blow out warm air.
The sound as burbling is heard.
The room cannot be
cooled sufficiently.
■ This sound is heard when the outside air is absorbed from the drain hose in turning on the
range hood or the ventilation fan and that makes
water flowing in the drain hose spout out.
This sound is also heard when the outside air
blows into the drain hose in case the outside wind
is strong.
■ When a ventilation fan or a gas cooker is used in
a room, the cooling load increases, resulting in
an insufficient cooling effect.
■ When the outside air temperature is high, the
cooling effect may not be sufficient.
The operation is
stopped for about 10
minutes in the heating operation.
Hissing sound is
sometimes heard.
■ Defrosting of the outdoor unit is being done (Defrosting operation).
Since this is completed in 10 minutes, please
wait. (When the external temperature is too low
and humidity is too high, frost is formed.)
■ This is the sound when the flow of refrigerant
inside the air conditioner is switched.

INSTALLATION, RELOCATION AND
INSPECTION
SPECIFICATIONS
Installation place
Avoid installing the air conditioner in the following
places.
■ Where flammable gas could leak.
CAUTION
Do not install the unit where flammable gas could
leak.
If gas leak and collect around the unit, it may cause an
explosion.
■ Where there is much machine oil.
■ Salty places such as the seaside.
■ Where sulfide gas is generated such as a hot spring.
■ Where oil is splashed or where the area is filled with
oily smoke.
Electrical work
■ Provide an exclusive circuit for the power supply of
the air conditioner.
■ Be sure to observe the breaker capacity.
WARNING
■ The customer should not install this unit.
If installation is done incorrectly, it may cause a
fire, an electric shock, or injury from the unit falling, water leaking, etc.
■ Do not use intermediate connection of the power
supply cord or the extension cord and do not
connect many devices to one AC outlet.
A fire or an electric shock may result from poor
contact, poor insulation, exceeding the permissible current, etc.
Consult your dealer.
CAUTION
■ Earth the unit.
Do not connect the earth to a gas pipe, water pipe,
lightning rod or the earth of a telephone. If the
earthing is incorrect, it may cause an electric
shock.
■ Install an earth leakage breaker depending on the
place where the air conditioner is to be installed
(humid places, etc.).
If the earth leakage breaker is not installed, it may
cause an electric shock.
Keep the outdoor unit 3 m or
more away from the antennas
of TV sets or radios.

keep as far apart as
possible.
Inspection and maintenance
■ When the air conditioner is used for several seasons,
the capacity may be lowered due to dirt inside the
unit.
■ Depending on the condition, an odor may be generated or dehumidified water may not drain out
smoothly due to dirt, dust, etc.
■ It is recommended that the unit be inspected and
maintained (charged) by specialist in addition to normal maintenance. Consult your dealer.
Operating sound considerations
■ Do not put an object around the air outlet of the outdoor unit. This may lower the capacity or increase
the volume of the operating sound.
■ If an abnormal sound is heard during operation, consult your dealer.
Relocation
■ When the air conditioner is to be removed or re-installed because of rebuilding, moving, etc., special
techniques and work are required.
WARNING
Repairs or relocation should not be done by the customer.
If this is done incorrectly, it may cause a fire, an
electric shock, or an injury from the unit falling, water leaking, etc. Consult your dealer.
