Before starting operation
• Make sure that the power supply is turned ON before use.
• Start running after the “HO” display has disappeared. (max. 2 minutes)
• In some systems, more than one indoor unit may be connected to a single outdoor
unit. When a remote controller for one indoor unit is used to change modes at the
same time as a different indoor unit is working together with the outdoor unit, the
operation underway stops, and the new operation begins. Until the old operation is
complete, the display on the remote controller flashes to indicate that the new
operation is in “waiting” status.
Warning:
Check and confirm the power circuit before use.

4.1. Cleaning the filters and the indoor unit
Cleaning the filters
• Clean the filters using a vacuum cleaner. If you do not have a vacuum cleaner, tap
the filters against a solid object to knock off dirt and dust.
• If the filters are especially dirty, wash them in lukewarm water. Take care to rinse
off any detergent thoroughly and allow the filters to dry completely before putting
them back into the unit.

Caution:
• Do not dry the filters in direct sunlight or by using a heat source, such as an
electric heater: this may warp them.
• Do not wash the filters in hot water (above 50
• Make sure that the air filters are always installed. Operating the unit without
air filters can cause malfunction.
Caution:
• Before you start cleaning, stop operation and turn OFF the power supply.
• Indoor units are equipped with filters to remove the dust of sucked-in air.
Clean the filters using the methods shown in the following sketches.

Filter removal
Caution:
In removing the filter, precautions must be taken to protect your eyes from
•
dust. Also, if you have to climb up on a stool to do the job, be careful not to fall.
• When the filter is removed, do not touch the metallic parts inside the indoor
unit, otherwise injury may result.

Before you ask for repair service, check the following points:
State of Machine
It does not run.
Air flows out but it does not cool enough or heat
enough.
Cool air or warm air does not come out.
The sound of the exhaust and rotation of the motor
can still be heard after stop of running.
The following symptoms are not air conditioner failures:
• The air blown out from the air conditioner can sometimes give off odors. This is due to cigarette smoke contained in the air of the room, the smell of cosmetics, the walls,
furniture, etc., absorbed in the air conditioner.
• A hissing noise can be heard immediately after the air conditioner is started or stopped. This is the sound of the refrigerant flowing inside the air conditioner. The problem is
insignificant.
• The air conditioner sometimes snaps or clicks at the beginning or end of cooling/heating operation. This is the sound of friction on the front panel and other sections due to
inflation and contraction caused by temperature change. The problem is insignificant.
Range of application
The range of working temperatures for both the indoor and outdoor units of the series Y, R2, Multi-S is as below.
Caution:
The use of your air conditioner outside the range of working temperature and humidity can result in serious failure.
