NOTE
Tips for saving energy
Be careful not to cool the room too much.
•
Keeping the temperature setting at a moderate level helps
save energy.
Recommended temperature setting
For cooling: 26°C ~ 28°C
Cover windows with a blind or a curtain.
•
Blocking sunlight and air from outdoors increases the
cooling effect.
Clogged air filters cause inefficient operation and waste
•
energy. Cleaning lamp tells you when the air filters need
cleaning. Clean them once in about every two weeks.
Please note
The air conditioner always consumes 15 ~ 35 watts of electricity
•
even while it is not operating.
If you are not going to use the air conditioner for a long period, for
•
example in spring or autumn, turn the breaker OFF.
Use the air conditioner in the following conditions.

MORE FEATURE
(Three step flow)
At the start heating, the human body feels uncomfortable if it
is directly exposed to the air flow even if it is warm. To
overcome this problem, the air conditioner is equipped with
a three step flow system to provide a comfortable warm air
around you.
1) At the start of operation, the flap is set toward the back.
2) When the air temperature has risen, the air starts
blowing downward to warm up the floor.
3) When the floor and walls are warmed up, the warm air
starts blowing toward the area around people.
MORE FEATURE
(Precedence-room setting)
When setting the preference-room during installation, the

●
These cases are not troubles.
The following cases are not air conditioner troubles but have some reasons. You may just
continue using it.
Case
Operation does not start soon.
●
When ON/OFF button was
pressed soon after operation
was stopped.
●
When the mode was reselected.
The outdoor unit emits water or
steam.
Mists come out of the indoor
unit.
The indoor unit gives out odour.
The outdoor fan rotates while
the air conditioner is not in
operation.
Explanation
●
This is to protect the air conditioner.
You should wait for about 3 minutes.
■ In COOL or DRY mode
• Moisture in the air condenses into water on the cool
• surface of outdoor unit piping and drips.
■ This happens when the air in the room is cooled into
mist by the cold air flow during cooling operation.
■ This happens when smells of the room, furniture, or
cigarettes are absorbed into the unit and discharged
with the air flow.
(If this happens, we recommend you to have the indoor
unit washed by a technician. Consult the service shop
where you bought the air conditioner.)
■ After operation is stopped:
• The outdoor fan continues rotating for another 30
• seconds for system protection.
■ While the air conditioner is not in operation:
• When the outdoor temperature is very high, the out
• door fan starts rotating for system protection.
The operation stopped suddenly.
(OPERATION lamp is on)
■ For system protection, the air conditioner may stop
operating on a sudden large voltage fluctuation.
It automatically resumes operation in about 3 minutes.

We recommend periodical maintenance
In certain operating conditions, the inside of the air conditioner may get foul after several
seasons of use, resulting in poor performance. It is recommended to have periodical
maintenance by a specialist aside from regular cleaning by the user. For specialist
maintenance, contact the service shop where you bought the air conditioner.
The maintenance cost must be born by the user.
