UNIT FEATURES
This unit has many features which are different from those
found on conventional PTAC units. The operator must be
familiar with these features in order to properly handle the
unit .
• DC-inverter compressor-Manufactured by
HEAT
COOL
FAN
SPEED
HIGH
LOW
AUTO
MITSHUBISH, due to its higher efficiency, energy
saving up can be up to 30% to 80%. Operation
voltage range is wider from 160VAC~270VAC, make
sure unit operation more stable under wide voltage
range power input. For its soft start feature, power
surge can be avoided, and also lower the noise level.
Without frequently start-stop makes the room
temperature more stable, so more comfortable.
•High performance IPM-Containing PFC module,
under heavy loading, PF can be up to 99%, thus
decreases EMI pollution to power supply system, and
also decreases power surge. Compressor driver chip
is manufactured by FAIRCHILD, famous brand and
high performance, making the compressor running
more reliable and more stable.
•LCDI Cords-Underwriters Laboratories and the
National Electric Code (NEC) now require power
cords that sense current leakage and can open the
electrical circuit to the unit on units rated at 250 volts
or less. In the event that unit does not operate, check
the reset button located on or near the head of the
power cord as part of the normal troubleshooting
procedure.
LCDI power Cord
•Automatic 3-minute compressor lockout-After
the compressor cycles off, it will not restart for three
minutes.
•Random restart delay-To help eliminate power
surges after a power outage, the unit is equipped with
a two to four minute random restart delay feature.
Whenever the unit is plugged in with the master
switch turned on and the mode switch set in the cool
or heat mode, a random restart will occur. A random
restart condition can be avoided by setting the mode
switch in the fan only or off position before applying
power to the unit.
•Indication LEDs-The control panel has LEDs that
correspond to fan operation and to indicate unit
status. The LEDs next to the selections ON/OFF,
FAN, COOL, and HEAT indicate which operational
mode is active.
FAN ON/OFF
•System safety protections-To ensure the system
running safely, electric control has the following
protections, for problem solving, please refer to
dia g n o stic codes & sol u t i o ns an d
troubleshooting sections.
A) Outdoor unit overload protection in COOLING
mode
When condenser coil temperature exceeds the
presetting point, compressor decreases the operating
frequency to 30Hz. If this protection is inactive and
condenser coil temperature reaches the shut-down
point, compressor will be turned off. Thus unit provide
double protections.
B) Evaporator over cold protection (will not
display error code)
When evaporator coil temperature drops to 1℃and
lasts for 5 minutes, compressor and outdoor fan will
stop, indoor fan keeps on running.
C) Compressor discharge over heat protection
When compressor discharge temperature reaches
protection point, compressor will decrease operating
frequency to 30Hz. If this protection is inactive and
discharge temperature reaches the shut down point,
compressor will be turned off. Thus provide double
protections.
D) Evaporator overload protection in HEAT PUMP
mode
When evaporator coil temperature exceeds the
presetting point, compressor decreases the operating
frequency to 30Hz. If this protection is inactive and
evaporator coil temperature reaches the shut down
point, compressor will be turned off. Thus provide
double protections. This time the back up electric
heater will be turned on.
E) Input over current protection
When input current exceeds the presetting point,
compressor will decrease the operating frequency to
30Hz. If this protection is inactive and current reaches
the shut down point,compressor will be turned off.
F) Compressor over current protection
When compressor operating current exceeds the shut
down point, compressor will be shut down.
G) IPM fault protection
When IPM faults, include over heat, unit will be shut
down, all outputs are terminated, control panel
displays the error code.
H) Temperature sensor fault protection
Any temperature sensor faults, unit stops and display
the error code.
I) Communication fault protection
For continuously 2 minutes communication faults
between indoor unit and outdoor unit, unit will
shut down and displays error code.

-3-
J) Compressor starting fault
If compressor starting fails, 3 minutes later, it will try to
start again. It will not display error code at the first 3 times
fault. If the 4th time fail again, it will not start any more and
display the error code.
K) DC-BUS over voltage/under voltage protection
Once monitors the DC-BUS is over or under voltage, unit
stops and display error code.
L) EEPROM fault
When the unit is powered on, if system monitors the
EEPROM fault, displays error code and will not operate
any more.
• Intelligent control-CPU will adjust the compressor
operating frequency according to the energy demand,
making the room temperature more stable and more
comfortable and more energy saving.
•Two-speed outdoor fan HIGH/LOW-When outdoor
ambient temperature becomes lower (for example,
during the night), outdoor fan will operating in low speed,
so to lower the noise and also more energy saving.
• Standard Physical Dimensions-The series PTAC is
with the same dimensions 42" wide x 16" high x 13-3/4"
deep
Replacement of older units is made easy.
•Weather-Protected Electrical Components-Vital
electrical components are protected from the weather by
locating them on the indoor side of the weather barrier.
•Highly Featured Microprocessor Controls-
Microprocessor controls are programmed to interface
with the temperature sensors to maximize comfort
conditions for the room occupant and provide
outstanding features.
Thermistors are used to sense small changes in
temperature to give excellent room control and allow the
microprocessor to monitor and react to changing
conditions.
•Automatic Emergency Heat on Heat Pump Units-
Automatically uses electric resistance heat if the heat
pump fails .
• Fan Motors Permanently Lubricated-All units have
two fan motors for quiet operation and maximum
operating efficiency.
Motors are permanently lubricated to reduce
maintenance and totally enclosed to keep dirt and water
out of the motor windings.
•Indoor Fan Speed Selections LOW /HIGH-Unit may
be operated in low fan speed or high fan speed. Some
speed may not be present based on unit
capacities.
• LS Control(front-desk control)-The unit can be
turned ON/OFF by front-desk control switch.The control
wire,colored purple,locates in the wall mounted
thermostat interface(refer to Fig11 on page 7).

MONTHLY MAINTENANCE AND
CLEANING
IntakeAirFilters
To properly maintain the operational performance of
your PTAC unit, it is extremely important that the inlet
air filters be cleaned once per month or more often if
operated in dusty or dirty locations or conditions. The
intake air filters are constructed of durable
polypropylene. The "air intake" air filters can be easily
inserted into the cabinet front, using the filter guides.
Before cleaning the intake filter, turn the unit off by

Vent Screen
Before cleaning the vent screen, disconnect power to the
unit by unplugging the power cord at the wall outlet or
subbase, or disconnect power at the fuse box or circuit
breaker. If unit is operated with vent door closed, the vent
screen does not need
to be cleaned.
1. Remove the cabinet front as described in Front
Removal.
2. Remove the six screws securing the chassis to the wall
sleeve.
3. Slide the chassis out of the wall sleeve far enough so
that the vent screen is accessible.
4. Clean the vent screen, slide the chassis back into the
wall sleeve, secure it in place with six screws and reinstall
the front cabinet.
Cabinet Front
The cabinet front and discharge air grille can be cleaned
with a water dampened cloth. Under no circumstances
should hydrocarbon-based cleaners (e.g. acetone,
benzene, naphtha gasoline, etc.) or ammonia based
cleaners be used to clean the front or air grilles. Use care
when cleaning the control area.

CLEANING
NOTE: Use a mild biodegradable detergent when
cleaningtheunit. Special caremust betaken to protect the
unit's control board and other electrical components from
getting anywater on them while cleaning. The use of harsh
or caustic cleaning agents or materials such as bleach or
coil cleaners that are not designed for PTAC products will
cause damage or deterioration of the aluminum fin or coil
material and is not recommended. Care must be taken not
tobendthealuminumfinstock.
RoutinescheduledMaintenance
To achieve continuing top performance and high efficiency,
establish a “once a year" cleaning/inspection schedule for
the unit. Take the unit out of the sleeve and thoroughly
clean and rinse. Be sure to include in the yearly cleaning
the evaporator coil, and condenser coil, basepan, and
drainpassages.
Scheduled maintenance can be accomplished by either
qualified local maintenance staff or by an authorized
servicer. Theymust follow the instructions described in this
manual.
Adverse Operating Conditions Maintenance
Units operating in dusty or corrosive locations; i.e.
dusty construction site or sea coast, must be cleaned
more often. A minimum of four (4) times a year will
maintain proper operational conditions and protect unit
components.
Wall sleeve
Clean the wall sleeve while cleaning the unit. The
caulking around the sleeve should be checked to make
sure that any potential air and water openings around
the sleeve are properly sealed. The wall sleeve's level
should also be rechecked. Proper leveling for most
installations are a 1/4 bubble tilt to the outside and
level from right to left. Contact your sales person for
detailed maintenance or cleaning instructions.
CAUTION!
DO NOT USE COMMERCIAL GRADE COIL CLEANERS. SOME
OF THESE CLEANERS MAY CONTAIN ETHYLENE DIAMINE
TETRACETIC ACID (EDTA) WHICH CAN SHORTEN THE LIFE
OF THE CONDENSER COIL.
BasepanandCondensercoil
Before cleaning the base pan and condenser coil, turn
OFFunitmodeswitchanddisconnectpowertotheunit.
To disconnect power, either unplug the power cord at the
wall outlet or subbase, or disconnect power at the fuse box
orcircuitbreaker

CAUTION!
HIGH PRESSURE AND HIGH TEMPERATURE CLEANING IS
NOT RECOMMENDED.
DOING SO COULD DAMAGE THE ALUMINUM FIN STOCK
AND ELECTRICAL COMPONENT.
ClearanceCheck
Clearances around the unit should also be checked to
make sure that the intake air and discharge air paths have
not become blocked or restricted. A minimum of eight
inches clearance is needed from unit to furniture, beds, or
other objects for proper operation. Restricted discharge or
intake airwill reduce the unit's operational performance. In
severe airflow restrictions damage can occur to unit
components such as the compressor, electric heater or fan
motor.
NORMAL OPERATING SOUNDS
ANDCONDITIONS
Watertricklingsounds
Water is picked up and distributed over the coil. This
improvestheefficiencyandhelpswithwaterremoval.
Waterdripping
Water will collect in the base pan during high humidity
days. This can cause overflow and drip from the outside of
theunit.
Airsounds
The fan cycle switch sets the operational mode of the fan.
In the ON position the fan will run continuously whenever
power is applied in this mode. In the AUTO position, the
fan will cycle on and off with the compressor or electric
heater.
Startingdelay
You may notice a few minutes delay in the starting if you
try to restart the unit too soon after turning it off or if you
adjust the thermostat right after the compressor has
shut off. This is due to a built–in delay to protect the
compressor.
Buzzer Response
The buzzer will chime “Di”(0.1 sec) as response when
receiving the effective order from key pad control and
remotecontrol.
