1. Optimum performance will be achieved within these operating temperatures.
2. When the unit operates above or below these conditions for a long time, system diagnostics may detect a
malfunction and the unit will not operate properly.
3. Room relative humidity - less than 80%. If the air conditioner operates outside this range, the surface of the air
conditioner may attract condensation. Please set the air ow louver to its maximum angle and set HIGH fan mode.
4. FOR OUTDOOR UNITS WITH AUXILIARY ELECTRIC HEATER: When outside temperature is below 0°C, we
strongly recommend keeping the unit plugged in at all time to ensure smooth ongoing performance.
The manual button is intended for testing
purposes and emergency operation only.
Please do not use this function unless the remote control is
lost and it is absolutely necessary. To restore regular operation, use
the remote control to activate the unit.
ACCESS
Open the front panel by carefully lifting both ends at the same time.
Once lifted su󰀩ciently, a click is heard and it becomes self-supporting.
OPERATE
Press the manual button repeatedly to change modes as follows;
a Once = AUTO mode [heat, cool or fan and auto fan speed].
b Twice=COOLING mode [ switches to AUTO mode after 30 minutes (mainly used for testing purpose)].
c Three times = OFF.
COMPLETE
Close the panel by rmly tugging downwards on both ends until it returns to its original position.

2.3 How It Works!
Basic Operation Modes: AUTO / COOL / DRY / HEAT* / FAN
[*]Model dependent
AUTO Mode
●In this setting the system will automatically change modes and fan speed to the set
temperature.
●In spring and autumn, closer temperature control may require COOL/HEAT mode changes.
DRY Mode
In this mode, priority is given to dehumidifying the air. Low fan speed and compressor cycling is
used to achieve this and regulate room temperature.
SLEEP Mode
When selected, the set temperature will increase (cooling) or decrease (heating) by 1°C after
1 hours and an additional 1°C in each hour. Thereafter it keeps this new temperature for 6 hours
before switching o󰀨.
This operation saves energy and improves night time comfort by synchronising with the body’s
metabolism.
ECO Mode*
ECO mode can be activated at cooling mode for energy saving. When selected, the unit will
automatically regular the fan speed and compressor rotation. It provides you the same comfort
with minimum power consumption in 8 hours running time.
Hints For Economical Operation
●Adjust the temperature to achieve moderate comfort levels.
●Excessively low or high temperatures waste energy.
●Improve performance by keeping windows and doors closed.
●Limit energy usage [run time] by using the TIMER function.
●Do not block air inlets or outlets. It will cause poor performance, increased running costs and
reduced product life.
●Inspect the air lters periodically, and clean them when needed.

Adjusting vertical air ow
●Press “SWING(vertical air ow)” on remote controller to adjust
vertical air ow direction. The louver position moves slightly each
time the button is pressed.
●Press “SWING(vertical air ow)” to
engage continuous louver motion.
Adjusting horizontal air ow
●Press “SWING(horizontal air
ow)” on remote controller to
adjust vertical air ow direction.
The louver position moves slightly
each time the button is pressed.
●Press “SWING(horizontal air
ow)” to engage continuous
louver motion.
Note: Please refer to the REMOTE CONTROLLER MANUAL for details.
2.4 Directional Control
Do not put your ngers in or near the
blower and suction side of the unit.
The high-speed fan inside the unit
may cause injury.
Do not move louver by hand. This
will cause the ouver to become out of
sync. If this occurs, turn off the unit
and unplug it for a few seconds,then
restart the unit. This will reset the
louver.
WARNING!
Intelligent Eye Operation
Press the Intelligent eye button on the remote control
to select wind ow follow people feature or wind ow
away from people feature.
The intelligent eye can detect people’s activities in
the room and adjust the horizontal angle of air ow to
implement the features.
NOTE: The wind ow follow people feature is only
available for a single people area. If press the SWING
button on the remote control, this feature will stops
automatically.
Louver position
Maximum down
In COOLING or DRY
mode, condensate may
form and drip from unit in high humidity
condition.
Narrow opening
Restricted air ow reduces performance and
may cause condensate.
Closed
Do not operate if it will not open – damage
may occur.
Louver action
After a quick restart, louver may remain
static for about 10s.
CAUTION Features (Model dependent)
■Auto swing of horizontal air ow*
●Press “SWING” for two secends to
engage vertical blades swing motion.
Note: Please refer to the REMOTE
CONTROLLER MANUAL for details.
■Louver Memory*
Horizontal louver angle is memorised and
will return to the position last selected by the
user.
This will not happen in TURBO mode,
running by manual control buttons, or after a
power interruption.
