WHEN POWER FAILURE OCCURS
This air conditioner has a memory function to store settings when a power failure occurs.
After power recovery, the unit will automatically re-start in the same settings which were active before
the power failure, except for timer settings.
If the timers were set before a power failure, they will need to be re-set after power recovery.
PREHEATING FUNCTION
In the HEAT operation, the indoor fan may not start for two to five minutes after the unit is turned on
to prevent cold air from blowing out of the unit.
DE-ICING FUNCTION
• When ice forms on the heat exchanger in the outdoor unit during the HEAT operation, an automatic
de-icer provides heat for about 5 to 10 minutes to remove the ice. During de-icing, the inside and
outside fans stop operating.
• After de-icing is completed, the unit automatically resumes operation in the HEAT mode.

HEATING EFFICIENCY
• The unit employs a heat pump that draws heat from the outside air and releases it into the room.
The outside air temperature therefore greatly affects the heating efficiency.
• If the heating efficiency is reduced due to low outside temperatures, use an additional heater.
• It takes time to warm up and heat the entire room because of the forced air circulation system.
TIPS ON SAVING ENERGY
Below are some simple ways to save energy when you use your air conditioner.

• Setting the thermostat 1°C higher than the desired temperature in the COOL mode and 2°C lower
in the HEAT mode will save approximately 10 percent in power consumption.
• Setting the temperature lower than necessary during cooling operation will result in increased
power consumption.
BLOCK DIRECT SUNLIGHT AND PREVENT DRAFTS
• Blocking direct sunlight during cooling operation will reduce power consumption.
• Close the windows and doors during cooling and heating operations.
SET PROPER AIR FLOW DIRECTION TO OBTAIN THE BEST AIR
CIRCULATION
KEEP FILTER CLEAN TO ENSURE THE MOST EFFICIENT OPERATION
MAKE MOST OF THE TIMER OFF FUNCTION
DISCONNECT THE POWER CORD WHEN THE UNIT IS NOT USED FOR AN
EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME
• The indoor unit still consumes a small amount of power when it is not operating.
E-19
BEFORE CALLING FOR SERVICE
The following conditions do not denote equipment malfunctions
UNIT DOES NOT OPERATE
The unit will not operate if it is turned on immediately
after it is turned off. The unit will not operate
immediately after the mode is changed. This is to
protect the internal mechanisms. Wait 3 minutes
before operating the unit.
UNIT DOES NOT SEND OUT WARM AIR
The unit is preheating or de-icing.
ODORS
Carpet and furniture odors that entered into the
unit and the air conditioner's inner component
odors at the early stage of installation may be sent
out from the unit.
CRACKING NOISE
The unit may produce a cracking noise. This sound
is generated by the friction of the front panel and
other components expanding or connecting due to a
temperature change.
A LOW BUZZING NOISE EMITTED
This is a sound emitted when the unit is generating
Plasmacluster ions.
SWISHING NOISE
The soft, swishing noise is the sound of the refrigerant flowing inside the unit.
WATER VAPOUR
• In the COOL and DRY operation, water vapour
can sometimes be seen at the air outlet due to
the difference between the room air temperature and the air discharged by the unit.
• In the HEAT operation, water vapour may flow
out of the outdoor unit during de-icing.
THE OUTDOOR UNIT DOES NOT
STOP
After stopping the operation, the outdoor unit will
rotate its fan for about a minute to cool down the
unit.
ODOR EMITTED FROM THE
PLASMACLUSTER AIR OUTLET
This is the smell of ozone generated from the
Plasmacluster ion generator. The ozone concentration is very small, posing no adverse effect on
your health. The ozone discharged into the air
rapidly decomposes, and its density in the room
will not increase.
(Only for models GS-XPM9FGR/GS-XPM12FGR/GS-XPM18FGR)
INDOOR UNIT BECOMES WARM
EVEN WHEN IDLE
This is because the refrigerant also floes through
the idle indoor unit's pipes when the other unit is
operated in HEAT mode.
INDOOR UNIT BECOMES WARM
EVEN WHEN NOT DURING HEATING
OPERATION
When the PLASMACLUSTER button is pressed
while the unit is not operating, the without accompanying air conditioning mode (er. HEATING or
COOLING). At this time, you may feel warm air
coming out from the unit air outlet if HEATING is
performed with units in other rooms. Indoor fan will
decrease its rotating speed and will turn ON and
OFF depending on the room temperature.
UNIT DOES NOT OPERATE IN YOUR
REQUESTED MODE
• When one indoor unit is operating in COOL or
DRY mode, you can not operate the other unit
in HEAT mode. (After a few seconds, a long
BEEP will be emitted, and the OPERATION
lamp and TIMER lamp will blink alternately.)
• When one indoor unit is operating in HEAT
mode, you can not operate the other unit in
COOL nor DRY mode. (After a few seconds, a
long BEEP will be emitted, and the OPERATION lamp and TIMER lamp will blink alternately.)
UNIT DOES NOT SEND OUT AIR
(PLASMACLUSTER operation without accompanying air conditioning
mode)
The other unit(s) is/are de-icing.
E-20
If the unit appears to be malfunctioning, check the following points before calling for
service.
IF THE UNIT FAILS TO OPERATE
Check to see if the circuit breaker has tripped or the fuse has blown.
IF THE UNIT FAILS TO COOL (OR HEAT) THE ROOM EFFECTIVELY
ENGLISH

them.
Make sure windows and doors
are closed tightly.
Check the outdoor unit to make
sure nothing is blocking the air inlet or outlet.
A large number of people in the
room can prevent the unit from
achieving the desired temperature.
Check the thermostat is proper
setting.
Check whether any heat-generating appliances are operating in the room.
IF THE UNIT FAILS TO RECEIVE THE REMOTE CONTROL SIGNAL
Check whether the remote control batteries have become old
and weak.
Please call for service when OPERATION Lamp and TIMER Lamp on the unit blink.
