SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
DANGER
• DO NOT ATTEMPT TO INSTALL THIS UNIT BY YOURSELF. THIS UNIT REQUIRES A QUALIFIED
INSTALLER.
• DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REPAIR THE UNIT BY YOURSELF. THIS UNIT HAS NO COMPONENTS
WHICH YOU CAN REPAIR.
• OPENING OR REMOVING THE COVER WILL EXPOSE YOU TO DANGEROUS VOLTAGES.
• TURNING OFF THE POWER SUPPLY WILL NOT PREVENT POTENTIAL ELECTRIC SHOCK.
• Be sure to ask a dealer or a store specialized in electric work to install the air conditioner.
• If the air conditioner is improperly installed by yourself, it can cause some problems such as water
leaks, electric shock, fire, and so on.
• Be sure to always ground the air conditioner.
• Do not connect the ground wire to gas pipes, water pipes, lightning rods or ground wires of
telephones. If the air conditioner is improperly grounded, it can cause an electric shock.
CAUTION
TO DISCONNECT THE APPLIANCE FROM THE MAIN POWER SUPPLY
This appliance must be connected to the main power supply by a circuit breaker or a switch with a
contact separation of at least 3 mm.
The installation fuse (25A D type ) must be used for the power supply line of this air
conditioner.
OPERATION WARNINGS
• Avoid cooling the room too strongly or exposing the human body to cool wind for a long time because
it can be detrimental to your health.
• Never insert fingers or sticks into the air outlet and air inlet to avoid getting injured and damaging the
machine because there are fans running at a high speed inside both the air inlet and air outlet.
• When you notice something unusual with the air conditioner (such as a burning smell or weak cooling
power), immediately turn off the main switch and the circuit breaker from the main power supply to
stop the air conditioner, and contact the dealer.
• If the air conditioner is continuously operated when something is wrong, it can cause machine failure,
electric shock, fire, and so on.
• Do not spill water or other liquid on the indoor unit. If the unit is wet, it can cause an electric shock.
MOVEMENT AND REPAIR WARNINGS
• Do not attempt to move or repair the unit by yourself.
• Since there is high voltage inside the unit, you can get an electric shock when removing the cover and
main unit.
• Always ask the dealer to move the air conditioner for re-installing it in another place. If it is improperly
installed, it can cause electric shock or fire.
• Whenever the air conditioner needs repairs, request repairs from the dealer.
If the air conditioner is repaired improperly it can cause an electric shock or fire.
1EN
CAUTION
.
INSTALLATION CAUTIONS
• Securely lay the drain hose for the best draining results.
• Incorrect drainage can cause flooding in the house and furniture to get wet.
• Be sure to connect the air conditioner to a dedicated power supply having the rated voltage.
Otherwise, the unit can break down or cause a fire.
• Do not install the unit in a place where inflammable gas can leak.
• A fire can result if inflammable gas accumulates around the unit.
• The indoor unit shall be installed so that the top of the indoor unit is at least 2 m in height. Also, avoid
putting anything on the top of the indoor unit.
OPERATION CAUTIONS
• Carefully read this manual before starting the air conditioner. The manual includes a lot of important
information for daily operation.
• Do not use this air conditioner for other purposes such as preserving food, precision instruments, art
objects, breeding animals, or growing potted plants.
• Do not install this air conditioner in a special-purpose room such as a ship or any kind of vehicle.
Doing so could harm machine performance.
• Avoid exposing potted plants and animals to wind from the air conditioner because it harms their
health and growth.
• When the air conditioner is operated together with a combustion device in the same place, pay
careful attention to ventilation and let fresh air into the room.
Poor ventilation can cause an oxygen shortage.
• When the air conditioner is used in a closed room, pay careful attention to the ventilation of the room.
Poor ventilation can cause an oxygen shortage.
• Do not touch the operation buttons with wet hands. Doing so could cause an electric shock.
• Do not place any combustion device in a place where it is directly exposed to wind from the air
conditioner. Doing so could cause incomplete combustion.
• When the air conditioner will not be used for an extended period of time, turn off the main switch or
the circuit breaker for added safety. Disconnecting from the power supply protects the unit from
lightning and power surges.
• Do not put a container with water such as a vase on the unit because water can enter into the unit
and cause an electric shock due to deterioration in the electric insulation.
• Check the concrete blocks underneath the outdoor unit occasionally. If the base is left damaged or
deteriorated, the unit can topple over and could possibly cause an injury.
• Do not wash the unit with water. This could cause an electric shock.
• Do not use alcohol, benzene, thinner, glass cleaner, polishing powder or other solvent for cleaning
the unit because they can deteriorate and damage the air conditioner.
• Before cleaning the unit, be sure to turn off the main switch or circuit breaker to prevent injuries from
the electric fan running inside.
• For details of the cleaning method, refer to “USUAL MAINTENANCE” and “SPECIAL
MAINTENANCE” on pages 18 to 22.
• Do not put anything on or step on the indoor unit and outdoor unit. If you do so, it can topple over and
cause an injury.
• To allow the air conditioner to operate at maximum performance, operate within the operating
temperature range specified in the instructions. Failure to do so can cause a malfunction, break
down, or water to leak from the unit.

AIR CONDITIONER OPERATION AND PERFORMANCE
Three-minute protection feature
A protection feature is provided that prevents the air conditioner from being activated for approximately 3 minutes when it is restarted
immediately after operation or when the power supply switch is set to on. This is used to protect the machine.
Heating characteristics (heat pump models)
Preheating operation
The air conditioner does not deliver warm air immediately after it is started.
Warm air flows out after approximately 5 minutes when the indoor heat exchanger has warmed up.
Warm air control
When the room temperature reaches the temperature setting, the fan indoor speed is automatically reduced.
The outdoor unit is stopped at this time.
Defrosting
If frost has formed on the outdoor unit during the heating operation, defrosting is started automatically (for approximately 5 to 10
minutes) to maintain the heating effect.
• The fans in both the indoor and outdoor units stop during the defrost operation.
• During the defrost operation, defrosted water is drained from the bottom plate of the outdoor unit.
Heating capacity
In the heating operation, heat is absorbed from outdoors and released into the room. That is called the heat pump system. When the
outdoor temperature is too low, usage of another heating apparatus in combination with the air conditioner is recommended.
Consideration for accumulated snow
Select the position for the outdoor unit where it will not be subjected to snow drifts, accumulation of leaves or other seasonal debris. It
is important that the air flow of the outdoor unit is not blocked as this will result in reduced heating or cooling performance. During the
heating mode and at sub-zero temperatures, the water drained off the outdoor unit as a result of the automatic defrost may
accumulate and freeze. It is important that adequate drainage or a soak-way be provided.
Power failure during operation stops the unit completely.
• The OPERATION indicator (green) on the indoor unit starts flashing when power is restored.
• To restart operation, push the button on the remote control.
• Lightning or a car wireless telephone operating nearby may cause the unit to malfunction. Turn the power supply switch off and then
on again. Push the button on the remote control to restart.
Air conditioner operating conditions
For proper performance, operate the air conditioner under the following temperature conditions.
Cooling operationOutdoor temperature: 5°C to 43°C
Room temperature: 21°C to 32°C
CAUTION
Room relative humidity — less than 80%. If the air conditioner operates outside this
range, the surface of the air conditioner may attract condensation.
Heating operation

Before asking for servicing or repairs, check the following points.
Condensation forms on the back of the indoor unit.
• Condensation on the back of the indoor unit is automatically collected and drained out.
Indoor unit or outdoor unit makes a strange noise.
• When the temperature changes sharply, the indoor or outdoor unit may make a strange
noise (such as a tit-tack noise or flowing noise) because of the expansion/contraction of
parts or change in refrigerant flow.
The room air is smelly.
A bad odor comes from the air conditioner.
• Smells absorbed in the wall, carpet, furniture, clothing, or furs are coming out.
• During PURE operation, a small amount of ozone is produced, and you might notice the
smell.
• The indicator turns on and off (1 Hz) when power is restored after a power failure or when
the power main switch is set to on. Reset the circuit breaker to ON.
Frost forms on the outdoor unit during heating operation. (heat pump models)
Water is drained from the outdoor unit.
• Frost sometimes forms on the outdoor unit during heating operation. In that case, the unit
automatically performs defrosting (for 2 to 10 minutes) for improving the heating efficiency.
• In the defrosting operation, the airflow from both the indoor and outdoor units stops.
These are not defects.
• A hiss sound is heard when the flow of the refrigerant is changed for defrosting.
• The water resulting from automatic defrosting during the heating operation is drained from
the outdoor unit.
The air flow changes even though the FAN button is not set to the AUTO mode.
• When the temperature of the blown air goes down during heating operation, the air
conditioner automatically changes or stops the air flow from the indoor unit so that the
people in the room do not feel chilly.
A white mist of chilled air or water is generated from the outdoor unit.
• Steam is sometimes generated from the indoor unit during cooling operation or the
outdoor unit during defrosting operation.
Automatic operation of vertical air flow louvers (heat pump models)
• When the room temperature or outdoor temperature is high during the heating operation,
the vertical air flow louvers close once and then set themselves automatically to the
original position setting again.
25EN
Before asking for servicing or repairs, check the following points.
The FILTER indicator turns on.
• This indicator turns on after PURE operation has been performed for approximately 1000
hours.
• The indicator may turn on if the front panel is not firmly closed.
• The indicator may turn on if the plasma pure filter is not securely attached.
Sounds made from the indoor unit
• The plasma pure filter may make a humming, clicking, or buzzing sound when it is dirty.
• When the power is turned on or the air conditioner is stopped, the vertical air louvers may
make a rattling sound or shuttling sound.
• Some parts may expand or shrink due to temperature fluctuations, and this can result in a
slapping sound.
• When the refrigerant is flowing, a hissing sound or gurgling sound can result.
• A buzzing sound is sometimes made from the air ionizer.
• A hissing sound can be made when the air conditioner is switched to defrosting operation
during heating operation.
Sounds made from the outdoor unit (heat pump models)
• A rustling sound can be made when the air conditioner is switched to defrosting operation
during heating operation.
