NAMES AND FUNCTIONS OF EACH PART
REMOTE CONTROLLER
This controls the operation of the cooling unit. The range of control is about 7 meters. If indoor
lighting is controlled electronically, the range of control may be shorter.
This unit can be fixed on a wall using the fixture provided. Before fixing it, make sure the cooling unit
can be controlled from the remote controller.

Precautions for Use
• Do not put the remote controller in the following places.
• In direct sunlight.
• In the vicinity of a heater.
• Handle the remote controller carefully. Do not drop it on floor, and
protect it from water.
• Once the condensing unit stops, it will not restart for about 3 minutes
(unless you turn the power switch off and on or unplug the power
cord and plug it in again).
This is to protect the device and does not indicate a failure.
• If you press the FUNCTION selector button during operation, the
device may stop for about 3 minutes for protection.

AUTOMATIC OPERATION
The device will automatically determine the operation mode of COOL, or DEHUMIDIFY
depending on the initial room temperature. The selected mode of operation will not change
when the room temperature varies.
Press the FUNCTION selector so that the display indicates the
O (AUTO) mode of operation.
• When AUTO is selected, the device will automatically
determine the mode of operation COOL or DEHUMIDIFY
depending on the current room temperature.
• The FAN SPEED selector does not work at this time: the
FAN SPEED is AUTO during COOL and LOW during
DEHUMIDIFY.
Press the ® (START/STOP) button.
Operation starts with a beep.
Press the button again to stop operation.
As the settings are stored in memory in the remote controller, you
only have to press the ® (START/STOP) button next time.
Press the TEMPERATURE button and the
temperature setting will change by 1 °C each time.
The preset temperature and the actual room temperature may
vary somewhat depending on environmental conditions.
The display does not indicate the preset temperature in the AUTO
mode. If you change the setting, the cooling unit will produce a
beep.
You can raise or lower the temperature setting as necessary by
maximum of 3°C.

Explanation of the sleep timer _
The device will control the fan speed and room temperature automatically
so as to be quiet and good for people’s health.
You can set the sleep timer to turn off after 1,2, 3 or 7 hours. The fan speed
and room temperature will be controlled as shown below.
ENGLISH

ADJUSTING THE AIR DEFLECTORS
Adjustment of the conditioned air in the upward and
downward directions.
According to “Dehumidifying” or “Cooling” operation,
the horizontal air deflector is automatically set to
the proper angle suitable for each operation. The
deflector can be swung up and down and also set
to the desired angle using the “ ki (AUTO SWING)”
button. (If the angle of the deflector is changed, it
will not return to the auto-set position after operations
start unless the operation mode is switched.)
• If the “ k: (AUTO SWING)” button is pressed
once, the horizontal air deflector swings up and
down. If the button is pressed again, the
deflector stops in its current position. Several
seconds (about 12 seconds) may be required
before the deflector starts to move.
• If the deflector is not used at fixed angle, set
the horizontal air deflectors within range of mark
on the side plate for “Dehumidifying” and
“Cooling” operations.
• Swinging the air deflector is effective to reduce
unevenness of the temperature in the room.
• In “Cooling” operation, do not keep the
horizontal air deflector swinging for a long time.
Some dew may form on the horizontal air
deflector and some dew drops may fall from it.
• When the “ ki (AUTO SWING)” button is pressed
while the operation is stopped, the horizontal
air deflector moves and stops at the position
where the air outlet closes.
• When the auto swing operation is performed, if
the horizontal air deflector is moved manually,
the swinging range may drift. However, it will
return to the original operation range after a
short time.
2 ) Adjustment of the conditioned air to the left and right.
Hold the vertical air deflector as shown in the figure
and adjust the conditioned air to the left and right.

HOW TO EXCHANGE THE BATTERIES IN THE REMOTE CONTROLLER
Replace the batteries when the (battery) mark in the indicator of remote controller
lights.
Remove the cover as shown in the figure
and take out the old batteries.
Install the new batteries.
The direction of the batteries should match
the marks in the case.
J
A CAUTION
1. Do not use new and old batteries, or different
kinds of batteries together.
2. Take out the batteries when you do not use
the remote controller for 2 or 3 months.
3. The batteries must be of the LR03 type.
Push and pull to the
direction of arrow.
TEMPORARY SWITCH
Use the temporary switch when operation can not be
done with the remote controller.
1. By pressing the temporary switch, the operation is
done in previously set operation mode.
When the operation is done using the temporary
switch after the power source is turned off and is
turned on again, the operation is done in auto¬
matic mode.
2. When the operation is stopped or when the opera¬
tion is done with the remote controller again, press
the temporary switch once again.
POWER SWITCH
When you do not use the room air conditioner, set
the power switch to “OFF”.

ENGLISH

MAINTENANCE
A CAUTION
Before the cleaning, stop operation and disconnect the power supply.
Air filter m
Clean the air filter, as it removes dust inside the room. It should be washed when
the M (FILTER) lamp lights. In case the air filter is full of dust, the air flow will
decrease and the cooling capacity will be reduced. Further, noise may occur. Be
sure to clean the filter following the procedure below.
Procedure
Remove the filter.
• Press the mark “PUSH” on the left and
right sides of the suction grille.
• Pull the front cover forward (Until the fixed
position).
• Slightly lift the filter and release the claws
(2 locations) at the lower part of the front
cover and remove the filter from the lower
side.
Remove dust from the filter using a vacuum-
cleaner.
If there is too much dust, use neutral
detergent. After using neutral detergent, wash
with clean water and dry in the shade.
Install the filters. (Set them with “FRONT”
mark facing front.)
Slightly lift the suction grille and close as
original state.
(Press the mark “PUSH” at the left and right
sides of the suction grille to fix it securely.)
A CAUTION
• Do not wash with hot water at more than 40°C. The filter may shrink.
• When washing it, shake off moisture completely and dry it in the shade; do not
expose it directly to the sun. The filter may shrink.
• Do not operate the air conditioner with the filter removed. Dust may enter the air
conditioner and cause trouble.
- 16 -

CLEANING OF FRONT COVER, ETC.
1. The front cover easily becomes dirty.
Wipe it with a soft dry cloth.
2. When it is excessively dirty, wipe with a
soft cloth soaked in lukewarm water or
neutral detergent. Then wipe thoroughly
with a soft dry cloth.
3. Never use hot water (above 5CTC),
benzine, gasoline, acid, thinner or a
brush, because they will damage the
plastic surface and the coating.
MAINTENANCE AT BEGINNING OF
OFF PERIOD
1. R u nn i ng the unit setting the operation mode to
4- (FAN) and the fan speed to HI for about half a day on
a fine day, and dry the whole of the unit.
WHEN ASKING FOR SERVICE, CHECK THE FOLLOWING POINTS.
WHEN IT DOES NOT OPERATE
1. Is the fuse all right?
2. Is the voltage extremely high or low?
3. Is the power switch “ON”?
WHEN IT DOES NOT COOL WELL
1. Is the air filter blocked with dust?
2. Does sunlight fall directly on the condensing unit?
3. Is the air flow of the condensing unit obstructed?
4. Are the doors or windows opened, or is there
any source of heat in the room?
5. Is the set temperature suitable?
Notes
• In quiet operation or stopping the running,
the following phenomena may occassionally
occur, but they are not abnormal for the
operation.
(1) Slight flowing noise of refrigerant in the
refrigerating cycle.
(2) Slight rubbing noise from the fan casing
which is cooled and then gradually
warmed as operation stops.
• The odor will possibly be emitted from
the room air conditioner because the
various odor, emitted by smoke,
foodstuffs, cosmetics and so on, sticks
to it. So please clean the air filter and
the evaporator at the beginning of the
season to reduce the odor.
This appliance complies with E. E. C. directive
No. 87/308 relative to radio perturbance and
interference suppression.
