SThe air conditioner will not operate if curtains, doors or
other materials block the signals from the remote controller
to the indoor unit.
SPrevent any liquid from falling on or into the remote
controller. Do not expose the remote controller to direct
sunlight or heat.
SIf the infrared signal receiver on the indoor unit is exposed
to direct sunlight, the air conditioner may not function as
designed. Use curtains to prevent sunlight from shining
directlyon the air conditioner.
SIf other electrical appliances respond to the remote
controller, either move the appliances or consult your local
dealer.
!CAUTION
Replacing Batteries
The remote controller uses two alkaline dry batteries (AAA).
1. Slide the battery compartment cover off, according to the
arrow direction, then replace the old batteries with new
batteries.
2. Insert the new batteries. Ensure the batteries are installed
correctly, based on their (+) and (−) polarities.
3. Slide the battery compartment cover back into position.
NOTE:
SDo not mix old and new batteries or batteries of different
types.
SDo not leave the batteries in the remote controller if the
remote is not going to be used for 2 or 3 months.
SDispose old batteries in the appropriate recycle bins.

Anti−Cold Air Function (F3)
A) Intelligent Anti−Cold Air Function
NOTE: The intelligent anti−cold air parameter changes with the
room temperature. Once the room temperature rises, the anti−cold
air temperature rises as well, which is designed to provide the user
with increased comfort. After the room temperature decreases, the
anti−cold temperature decreases as well, which is designed to
improve fan speed and result in a faster heating operation.
NOTE: No setting adjustment recommended.
