plugs can cause fire or electric shock.
• Do not pull power cord to unplug unit. Hold the plug firmly and pull it from the outlet. Pulling
directly on the cord can damage it, which can lead to fire or electric shock.
• Do not use an extension cord, manually extend the power cord, or connect other appliances to
the same outlet as the air conditioner. Poor electrical connections, poor insulation, and insufficient
voltage can cause fire.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE WARNINGS
• Turn off the device and pull the plug before cleaning. Failure to do so can cause electrical shock.
• Do not clean the air conditioner with excessive amounts of water.
• Do not clean the air conditioner with combustible cleaning agents. Combustible cleaning agents
can cause fire or deformation.
CAUTION
• If the air conditioner is used together with burners or other heating devices, thoroughly ventilate
the room to avoid oxygen deficiency.
• Turn off the air conditioner and unplug the unit if you are not going to use it for a long time.
• Turn off and unplug the unit during storms.
• Make sure that water condensation can drain unhindered from the unit.
• Do not operate the air conditioner with wet hands. This may cause electric shock.
• Do not use device for any other purpose than its intended use.
• Do not climb onto or place objects on top of the outdoor unit.
• Do not allow the air conditioner to operate for long periods of time with doors or windows open,
or if the humidity is very high.

Setting vertical angle of air flow
While the unit is on, use the SWING/DIRECT
button to set the direction (vertical angle) of
airflow.
1. Press the SWING/DIRECT button once to
activate the louver
. Each time you press
the button, it will adjust the louver by 6°.
Press the button until the direction you
prefer is reached.
2. T
o make the louver swing up and down
continuously
, press and hold the SWING/
DIRECT button for 3 seconds. Press it
again to stop the automatic function.
The horizontal angle of the airflow must be set
manually. Grip the deflector rod (See Fig.B)
and manually adjust it to your preferred direction.
For some units, the horizontal angle of the airflow
can be set by remote control. please refer to the
Remote Control Manual.
NOTE ON LOUVER ANGLES
When using COOL or DRY mode, do not set
louver at too vertical an angle for long periods
of time. This can cause water to condense on
the louver blade, which will drop on your floor
or furnishings. (See Fig.A)
When using COOL or HEAT mode, setting the
louver at too vertical an angle can reduce the
performance of the unit due to restricted air
flow.
Do not move louver by hand. This will cause the
louver 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
.

CAUTION
Do not put your fingers in or near the blower

soaked in warm water to wipe it clean.
• Do not use chemicals or chemically treated
cloths to clean the unit
• Do not use benzene, paint thinner,
polishing powder or other solvents to clean
the unit. They can cause the plastic surface
to crack or deform.
• Do not use water hotter than 40°C (104°F)
to clean the front panel. This can cause the
panel to deform or become discolored.
Cleaning Your Air Filter
A clogged air conditioner can reduce the cooling
efficiency of your unit, and can also be bad for
your health. Make sure to clean the filter once
every two weeks.
6. Rinse the filter with fresh water, then shake
off excess water.
7. Dry it in a cool, dry place, and refrain from
exposing it to direct sunlight.
8. When dry, re-clip the air freshening filter to
the larger filter, then slide it back into the
indoor unit.
9. Close the front panel of the indoor unit.
CAUTION
Do not touch air freshening (Plasma) filter for
at least 10 minutes after turning off the unit.
1. Lift the front panel of the indoor unit.
2. First press the tab on the end of filter to
loosen the buckle, lift it up, then pull it
towards yourself.
3. Now pull the filter out.
4. If your filter has a small air freshening filter,
unclip it from the larger filter. Clean this air
freshening filter with a hand-held vacuum.
5. Clean the large air filter with warm, soapy
water. Be sure to use a mild detergent.
Remove air freshening filter from back of

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
If ANY of the following conditions occurs, turn off your unit immediately!
•The power cord is damaged or abnormally warm
•You smell a burning odor
•The unit emits loud or abnormal sounds
•A power fuse blows or the circuit breaker frequently trips
•Water or other objects fall into or out of the unit
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO FIX THESE YOURSELF! CONTACT AN AUTHORIZED SERVICE PROVIDER
IMMEDIATELY!
Common Issues
The following problems are not a malfunction and in most situations will not require repairs.
Issue Possible Causes
Unit does not turn
on when pressing
ON/OFF button
The Unit has a 3-minute protection feature that prevents the
unit from overloading. The unit cannot be restarted within
three minutes of being turned off.
The unit may change its setting to prevent frost from forming
on the unit. Once the temperature increases, the unit will start
operating in the previously selected mode again.
The set temperature has been reached, at which point the
unit turns off the compressor. The unit will continue operating
when the temperature fluctuates again.
The indoor unit
emits white mist
In humid regions, a large temperature difference between the
room’s air and the conditioned air can cause white mist.
Both the indoor
and outdoor units
emit white mist
When the unit restarts in HEAT mode after defrosting, white
mist may be emitted due to moisture generated from the
defrosting process.

Issue Possible Causes
The indoor unit
makes noises
A rushing air sound may occur when the louver resets its
position.
A squeaking sound may occur after running the unit in HEAT
mode due to expansion and contraction of the unit’s plastic
parts.
Both the indoor
unit and outdoor
unit make noises
Low hissing sound during operation: This is normal and is
caused by refrigerant gas flowing through both indoor and
outdoor units.
Low hissing sound when the system starts, has just stopped
running, or is defrosting: This noise is normal and is caused by
the refrigerant gas stopping or changing direction.
Squeaking sound: Normal expansion and contraction of
plastic and metal parts caused by temperature changes during
operation can cause squeaking noises.
The outdoor unit
makes noises
The unit will make different sounds based on its current
operating mode.
Dust is emitted
from either the
indoor or outdoor
unit
The unit may accumulate dust during extended periods of
non-use, which will be emitted when the unit is turned on.
This can be mitigated by covering the unit during long periods
of inactivity.
The unit emits a
bad odor
The unit may absorb odors from the environment (such as
furniture, cooking, cigarettes, etc.) which will be emitted
during operations.
The unit’s filters have become moldy and should be cleaned.
The fan of the
outdoor unit does
not operate
During operation, the fan speed is controlled to optimize
product operation.
Operation
is erratic,
unpredictable,
or unit is
unresponsive
Interference from cell phone towers and remote boosters may
cause the unit to malfunction.
In this case, try the following:
• Disconnect the power, then reconnect.
• Press ON/OFF button on remote control to restart operation.
NOTE: If problem persists, contact a local dealer or your nearest customer service
center. Provide them with a detailed description of the unit malfunction as
well as your model number.
