Coverage
● The air coverage is the figure up to the
(ft.)
position where the air speed is 1 ft./s.,
when air is blown out horizontally from
the unit properly at the High speed position.
The coverage should be used only as a
general guideline since it varies according to the size of the room and furniture
arranged inside the room.
For service, the following set time can be shortened by bridging JPG and JPS on the indoor electronic control P.C. board.
(Refer to 9-7.)
•
The set time for the ON/OFF timer can be reduced to 1 second for each minute.
•
After the breaker is turned on, the time for starting the compressor, which normally takes 3 minutes, can be reduced to
3 seconds. Restarting the compressor, which takes 3 minutes, cannot be reduced.
7-2. P.C. BOARD MODIFICATION FOR INDIVIDUAL OPERATION
A maximum of 4 indoor units with wireless remote controllers can be used in a room.
In this case, to operate each indoor unit individually by each remote controller, P.C. boards of remote controller must be
modified according to the number of the indoor unit.
How to modify the remote controller P.C. board
Remove batteries before modification.
The board has a print as shown below:
J2
J1
NOTE : For modification, take out
the batteries and press
the OPERATE/STOP (ON/
OFF) button 2 or 3 times at
first.
After finish modification,
put back the batteries then
press the RESET button.
The P.C. board has the print “J1” and “J2”. Solder “J1” and “J2” according to the number of indoor unit as shown in Table 1.
After modification, press the RESET button.

How to set the remote controller exclusively for particular indoor unit
After you turn the breaker ON, the first remote controller that sends the signal to the indoor unit will be regarded as the remote
controller for the indoor unit.
The indoor unit will only accept the signal from the remote controller that has been assigned to the indoor unit once they are
set.
The setting will be cancelled if the breaker has turned OFF, or the power supply has shut down.
Please conduct the above setting once again after the power has restored.

7-3. AUTO RESTART FUNCTION
OBH685
When the indoor unit is controlled with the remote controller, the operation mode, the set temperature, and the fan speed
are memorized by the indoor electronic control P.C. board. “AUTO RESTART FUNCTION” automatically starts operation
in the same mode just before the shut-off of the main power.
Operation
If the main power has been cut, the operation settings remain.After the power is restored, the unit restarts automatically according to the memory.
(However, it takes at least 3 minutes for the compressor to start running.)
How to disable “AUTO RESTART FUNCTION”
Turn OFF the main power of the unit.
Solder the Jumper wire JR07 on the indoor electronic control P.C. board. (Refer to 9-7.)

NOTE:
• The operation settings are memorized when 10 seconds have passed after the indoor unit was operated with the
remote controller.
• If main power is turned OFF or a power failure occurs while AUTO START/STOP timer is active, the timer setting is
cancelled.
• If the unit has been OFF with the remote controller before power failure, the auto restart function does not work as
the power button of the remote controller is OFF.
• To prevent breaker OFF due to the rush of starting current, systematize other home appliance not to turn ON at the
same time.
• When some air conditioners are connected to the same supply system, if they are operated before power failure, the
starting current of all the compressors may flow simultaneously at restart.
Therefore, the special counter-measures are required to prevent the main voltage-drop or the rush of the starting
current by adding to the system that allows the units to start one by one.
NOTE: Last setting will be stored after the unit is turned OFF with the remote controller. Indoor unit receives the signal of the
remote controller with beeps.

The setting range is 61 ~ 88°F (16 ~ 31°C).
1. Coil frost prevention
The compressor operational frequency is controlled by the temperature of the indoor heat exchanger to prevent the coil from
frosting.
When the temperature of indoor heat exchanger becomes too low, the coil frost prevention mode works.
The indoor fan operates at the set speed and the compressor stops. This mode continues until the temperature of indoor
heat exchanger rises.
2. Low outside temperature operation
When the outside temperature is lower, low outside temperature operation starts, and the outdoor fan slows or stops.

When the compressor is not operating or is starting, and the temperature of indoor heat exchanger and/or the room temperature is low or when defrosting is being done, the indoor fan will stop or rotate in Very Low speed.
2. High pressure protection
The compressor operational frequency is controlled by the temperature of the indoor heat exchanger to prevent the condensing pressure from increasing excessively.
When the temperature of indoor heat exchanger becomes too high, the high pressure protection works.
The indoor fan operates following the cold air prevention control. This mode continues until the temperature of indoor heat
exchanger falls.
3. Defrosting
Defrosting starts when the temperature of outdoor heat exchanger becomes too low.
The compressor stops once, the indoor/outdoor fans stop, the 4-way valve reverses and the compressor re-starts.
This mode continues until the temperature of outdoor heat exchanger rises or the fixed time passes.

3. Troubleshooting procedure
1) Check if the OPERATION INDICATOR lamp on the indoor unit is flashing ON and OFF to indicate an abnormality. To
make sure, check how many times the OPERATION INDICATOR lamp is flashing ON and OFF before starting service
work.
2) Before servicing check that the connector and terminal are connected properly.
3) When the P.C. board seems to be defective, check the copper foil pattern for disconnection and the components for
bursting and discoloration.
4) When troubleshooting, refer to 9-2, 9-3 and 9-4.
4. How to replace batteries
Weak batteries may cause the remote controller malfunction.
In this case, replace the batteries to operate the remote controller normally.
Remove the back lid and insert batteries.
Then reattach the back lid.
Insert the negative pole of the
batteries first. Check if the polarity
of the batteries is correct.

Fixing the indoor coil thermistor
OBH685
There are 2 forms of parts for fixing the indoor coil thermistor.
Holder shapeClip shape
Position and procedure for mounting the clip-shape part
1. Set the indoor coil
thermistor in the center
of the clip-shape part.
2. Check the (marked)
mounting position.
When fixing the indoor coil thermistor
to the clip-shape/holder-shape part, the
lead wire should point down.
About the
same length
3.Mount the
clip-shape part.
NOTE:
Take care to avoid loss and accidental falling of the clip-shape part inside the unit.
Mount the clip-shape part on the marked position.
