MANUAL AUTO OPERATION
Use the MANUAL AUTO operation in the event the remote control unit is lost or otherwise unavailable.
How To Use the Main Unit Controls
Press the MANUAL AUTO button on the main unit control
panel.
To stop operation, press the MANUAL AUTO button once again.
●When the air conditioner is operated
with the controls on the Main unit, it
will operate under the same mode as
the AUTO mode selected on the re-
mote control unit.
However, the Heat pump model will
follow the operating mode of the other
indoor unit.
●The fan speed selected will be “AUTO”
and the thermostat setting will be
23 °C.
●When used for extended periods, the unit may accumulate dirt inside, reducing its performance. We recommend that the
unit be inspected regularly, in addition to your own cleaning and care. For more information, consult authorized service
personnel.
●When cleaning the unit’s body, do not use water hotter than 40 °C, harsh abrasive cleansers, or volatile agents like
benzene or thinner.
●Do not expose the unit body to liquid insecticides or hairsprays.
●If the unit will not be operated for a period of one month or more, be sure to allow the inner parts of the unit to dry
thoroughly, in advance, by operating the unit in fan mode for half a day.
CLEANING AND CARE
●Before cleaning the unit, be sure to stop the unit and disconnect the power supply.
●Turn off the electrical breaker.
CAUTION!
Cleaning the Air Filter
3. Re-attach the air filters to the intake grille.
The air filters fit onto the inside of the intake grille.
●Dust can be cleaned from the air filter either with a vacuum
cleaner, or by washing the filter in a solution of mild de-
tergent and warm water. If you wash the filter, be sure to
allow it to dry thoroughly in a shady place before rein-
stalling.
●If dirt is allowed to accumulate on the air filter, air flow
will be reduced, lowering operating efficiency and increas-
ing noise.
●During periods of normal use, the air filters should be
cleaned every four weeks.
1. Pull the air filters upward to remove them.
Remove the air filters by raising its handle while pulling
it out towards you.
2. Clean the air filters.
Remove the dust from the air filters by vacuuming or
washing them. After washing, allow the air filters to dry
thoroughly in an area protected from sunlight.

TROUBLESHOOTING
Instructions relating to heating (*) are applicable only to “HEAT & COOL MODEL”(Reverse Cycle).
In the event of a malfunction (burning smell, etc.), immediately stop operation, turn off the elec-
trical breaker, and consult authorized service personnel.
Merely turning off the unit’s power switch will not completely disconnect the unit from the power
source. Always be sure to turn off the electrical breaker to ensure that power is completely off.
Before requesting service, perform the following checks:
Symptom
Doesn’t operate immedi-
ately:
Noise is heard:
Smells:
Mist or steam are
emitted:
Airflow is weak or stops.
Water is produced from
the outdoor unit.
Problem
●If the unit is stopped and then immediately started again, the com-
pressor will not operate for about 3 minutes, in order to prevent
fuse blowouts.
●Whenever the electrical breaker is turned off then on again, the
protection circuit will operate for about 3 minutes, preventing unit
operation during that period.
●During operation and immediately after stopping the unit, the
sound of water flowing in the air conditioner’s piping may be
heard. Also, noise may be particularly noticeable for about 2 to 3
minutes after starting operation (sound of coolant flowing).
●During operation, a slight squeaking sound may be heard. This is
the result of minute expansion and contraction of the front cover
due to temperature changes.
*●During Heating operation, a sizzling sound may be heard occa-
sional. This sound is produced by the Automatic Defrosting op-
eration.
●Some smell may be emitted from the indoor unit. This smell is
the result of room smells (furniture, tobacco, etc.) which have
been taken into the air conditioner.
●During Cooling or Dry operation, a thin mist may be seen emitted
from the indoor unit. This results from the sudden Cooling of
room air by the air emitted from the air conditioner, resulting in
condensation and misting.
*●During Heating operation, the outdoor unit’s fan may stop, and
steam may be seen rising from the unit. This is due to Automatic
Defrosting operation.
*●When Heating operation is started, fan speed is temporarily very
low, to allow internal parts to warm up.
*●During Heating operation, if the room temperature rises above
the thermostat setting, the outdoor unit will stop, and the indoor
unit will operate at very low fan speed. If you wish to warm the
room further, set the thermostat for a higher setting.
*●During Heating operation, the unit will temporarily stop opera-
tion (between 2 and 16 minutes) as the Automatic Defrosting mode
operates. During Automatic Defrosting operation, the OPERATION
indicator lamp will flash.
●The fan may operate at very low speed during Dry operation or
when the unit is monitoring the room’s temperature.
●In the monitor AUTO operation, the fan will operate at very low
speed.
*●During Heating operation, water may be produced from the out-
door unit due to Automatic Defrosting operation.

CHECK ONCE
MORE
Items to check
●Has there been a power failure?
●Has a fuse blown out, or a circuit breaker been tripped?
●Is the main power switch set to the OFF position?
●Is the timer operating?
●Is the air filter dirty?
●Are the air conditioner’s intake grille or outlet port blocked?
●Did you adjust the room temperature settings (thermostat) cor-
rectly?
●Is there a window or door open?
●In the case of Cooling operation, is a window allowing bright sun-
light to enter? (Close the curtains.)
●In the case of Cooling operation, are there heating apparatus and
computers inside the room, or are there too many people in the
room?
If the problem persists after performing these checks, or if you notice burning smells, stop operation immediately, turn off the
electrical breaker, and consult with authorized service personnel.
OPERATING TIPS
*Heating Performance
●This air conditioner operates on the heat-pump principle,
absorbing heat from outdoor air and transferring that heat
indoors. As a result, the operating performance is reduced
as outdoor air temperature drops. If you feel that insuffi-
cient heating performance is being produced, we recom-
mend you use this air conditioner in conjunction with
another kind of heating appliance.
●Heat-pump air conditioners heat your entire room by
recirculating air throughout the room, with the result that
some time may be required after first starting the air con-
ditioner until the room is heated.
* Cooling/Heating Priority (HEAT PUMP MODEL only)
●If another indoor unit in the same system is already oper-
ating in the cooling mode or dry mode, heating mode
settings cannot be performed. (Operation in the cooling
or dry mode will continue.)
●If another indoor unit in the same system is already oper-
ating in the heating mode, cooling mode or dry mode
settings cannot be performed. (Operation in the cooling
or dry mode will continue.)
Operation and Performance
*Microcomputer-controlled Automatic Defrosting
When using the Heating mode under conditions of low out-
door air temperature high humidity, frost may form on the
outdoor unit, resulting in reduced operating performance.
In order to prevent this kind of reduced performance, this
unit is equipped with a Microcomputer-controlled Automatic
Defrosting function. If frost forms, the air conditioner will
temporarily stop, and the defrosting circuit will operate
briefly (for about 4 to 15 minutes).
During Automatic Defrosting operation, the OPERATION in-
dicator lamp (red) will flash.
Oil Recovery Operation
Periodically, the oil recovery operation is performed in or-
der to return compressor oil to the outdoor unit. Operation
is stopped during this oil recovery operation. During oil re-
covery operation, the OPERATION indicator lamp (red) will
flash.
Low Ambient Cooling
When the outdoor temperature drops, the outdoor unit’s fans
may switch to Low Speed, or one of the fans may stop inter-
mittently.

●If the air conditioner is used under higher temperature conditioner than those listed, the built-in protection circuit may
operate to prevent internal circuit damage. Also, during Cooling and Dry modes, if the unit is used under conditions of
lower temperature than those listed above, the heat-exchanger may freeze, leading to water leakage and other damage.
●Do not use this unit for any purposes other than the Cooling, (*)Heating, Dehumidifying, and air-circulation of rooms in
