10. OUTLINE OF OPERATIONS
10-1.Basic Operation
(1) When I/O button is pushed, the relays RY01,
RY02 or RY03 and power relay RY07 start according to the conditions set by F AN SPEED knob
selector switch. Thus, the indoor fan motor and
compressor are controlled. (Operations as described in this paragraph are all programmed. And
following items are same as it.)
(2) When the I/O button is pushed again, the relays
are all disabled, and the air conditioner stops.
(3) When the I/O button is pushed with the timer set
at any desired time, the relays are all disabled
and the air conditioner stops when the timer
reaches the set time. However, if the operation
is started with the timer set to “CONTINUE”, the
operation continues.
(4) To adjust the room temperature, set the knob
mounted on the control panel at desired temperature. The room temperature sensor detects and
controls the adequate temperature.
(5) When the FAN SPEED selector switch is set to
“AUTO”, the volume of air is controlled to be felt
agreeable.
10-2. Economy Mode
This control mode establishes some zones corresponding to different combinations of on and off intervals of the compressor and selects a suitable zone
depending on the lapse of time from the start of operation and the temperature.

10-3. Dry Mode
In this mode, a microcomputer control lowers humidity while maintaining a constant temperature. The
microcomputer turns the compressor on and off at
regular intervals (3 to 6 minutes on and/or off). During the halt, the airflow fan stops as well.
The compressor and airflow fan will operate independent of the temperature control, though the pattern
of operation depends on the relation between room
temperature (TA) and set temperature (Ts), as shown
below:
Table 10-3
10-4. Economy Operation
(1) When the economy button is pushed, the
economy lamp is lit and the economy operation
will start. (But this operation will not start in the
mode of fan only.)
(2) The economy operation with the cooling and dry
modes will be performed in the manner as stated
below.
10-4-1. Cooling Operation
(1) The compressor will be operated by means of
ON/OFF interval operation.
(2) The room fan will be controlled as stated below:
• When compressor is turned on: L
• When compressor is turned off: UL
• When monitoring: OFF
(3) An interval operation will be started from OFF
time. But when starting operation, it will be kept
in ON position for 6 minutes.
Fig. 10-2
10-4-2. Dry Operation
(1) ON/OFF interval operation both of the compres-
sor and fan will be performed (At the OFF time,
both of the compressor and fan will be set to
OFF.)
(2) Wind capacity is of L.
(3) An interval operation will be performed in Ta ≥ Ts
condition.
10-4-3. Fan Operation
(1) When operation change over switch is set to fan
operation, the economy operation shall not be
executed. And the economy lamp shall not be lit
too. (Normal fan operation will be performed.)

Operation of air conditioner
When the POWER plug socket of the unit is
inserted, the operation lamp on the control panel
flashes.
Room temperature is in the range under which the
compressor is turned on and the operation lamp is
lighting, but the compressor will not start.
Fan speed remains unchanged when the fan speed
knob is operated in the dry mode.
The indoor fan occasionally stops intermittently in
the dry mode.
The compressor will not switch on or off even when
the Thermo control is operated in the dry mode.
Warning lamp is lit and no cold air comes out.
Warning lamp blinks and no cold air comes out.
At the mode of fan only, the economy lamp is not lit
when the economy button is pushed.
The push button has not returned when the
economy button is pushed.
11. TROUBLESHOOTING CHART
Troubleshooting procedures:
• Following the details of “What to be prechecked first”, make sure of the basic items.
• When there is no trouble corresponding to above, check in detail the faulty parts following “How to judge
faulty parts by symptoms” later.
11-1.What to be Prechecked First
11-1-1. Power Voltage
The power voltage must be from AC 198V to 264V. If
the power voltage is not within this range, the air conditioner may not work normally.
11-1-2. Operations not Regarded as Failure
(Program Operation)
In terms of the control of air conditioner, the operations shown in Table 11-1 are made as a program
operation incorporated in a microcomputer. If a claim
is made about the operation, check it corresponds to
the contents in Table 11-1. If it does, it is an indispensable operation for the control and maintenance
of the air conditioner but not a failure of the units.
• Operations which are not deemed trouble
Table 11-1
Description
The operation lamp flashes indicating that power is turned on.
If this happens, push the I/O button once, and flash will stop.
Power failure also causes the same lamp to flash.
The compressor will not start while the compressor restart
prevention timer (three-minute timer) is actuated. This applies
also when power is turned on.
Fan speed is fixed at Low in the dry mode.
In the dry mode, the fan operation is synchronized with the
compressor. As a result the fan is stopped when the compressor is stopped.
In the dry mode, the compressor goes on and off at regular
intervals independent on the Thermo control.
When water in the tank has been drained out, stop the
operation of the compressor for safety. Fill the water in the
tank.
When the temperature in the freezing cycle (high pressure
side), stop the operation of the compressor for safety. Be sure
that the exhaust port has plugged with something or water is
not remain in the exhaust hose.
In case of the fan only mode, the economy lamp will not be lit
since the economy control will not be performed.
The economy button is of lock type. When the button is
pushed again, the button is set to OFF and the button will
come out. The operation button will come out all the time since
it is not of lock type.

(3) Window has been kept open while raining, and
after that, cooling operation is started.
• On rainy days, relative humidity may become
as high as 90% or higher. If doors or windows
are open to the outside, close them.
(4) When a man goes in and out between a room
with high humidity and one with low humidity. Or,
in case there is no door between such rooms.
• Even if there is no moisture generating source
in the room where the air conditioner is installed, in case people go in from and out to a
room with high humidity frequently, or in case
there is no door between the rooms, the situation becomes the same.
(B) Water Leaks
Causes:
(1) There is a moisture generating source in the room.
• Note that, even if a ventilation fan is not in
operation, if it is open to the outside, the condition is same as the one in operation.
(2) Air volume is remarkably reduced.
• Air filter is blocked, resulting in the reduction
of air volume.
• Low fan operation causes the lowering of running voltage, resulting in the reduction of air
volume.
• If the voltage is in the range of 198 – 264V, it
is normal.
Installation condition of the air
conditioner is defective.
Normal
Dew condensation on the
external body.

[ Symptom ]
Intermittent noise as if something is fluttering in the wind.
Air blows in and out at the air discharge port.
Check if there is an obstacle which hinders the air flow to
any extent.
Check whether the air filter is dirty or not.
Check whether the evaporator is dirty with dust or oil or not.

12-2.Routine Maintenance
(1) Be sure to observe the following for a longer ser-
vice life of your air conditioner.
• Cleaning of air filter: Once every two weeks
• Changing of water in tank: Once ever week
(2) Be sure to drain out the water in tank during ev-
ery off season.
12-3. Water Supply
(1) The water in tank decreases gradually in the
course of cooling operation.
(2) If the water is run out, the warning lamp lights up
(in red) and the operation mode is switched to
blowing. Then, refill the water.
(3) Open the front door, being down the tank tow ard
you, and lift off the tank.
Fig. 12-2
12. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTION
Read the installation manual carefully before installing the air conditioner.
The following items in table 12-1 are included as the
accessories.
4) If the exhaust hose is set with its tip down,
the water condensed within the hose might
leak out of the room. It is therefore recommended to set the hose with its tip kept higher
than the air outlet of the air conditioner properly.
(2) Put a seat under each caster.
(3) Electrical wiring.
Table 12-2
12-1.Installation Method
(1) Insert the connection port (round) into the air con-
ditioner surely to its root.
1) The exhaust hose may be extended or contracted from approx. 500 mm to approx. 1,400
mm, but use it in its shortest length if possible.
2) Be careful that a U-shaped bend or slack is
not yielded in the way of exhaust hose.
3) When you move the air conditioner, be sure
to pull out the exhaust hose and don’t lay down
the air conditioner.
