Water leakage, short circuit or fire may occur if you install the unit by yourself.
• Please use earth line.
Do not place the earth line near water or gas pipes, lightning-conductor, or the
earth line of telephone. Improper installation of earth line may cause electric
shock or fire.
• Be sure to use the specifi ed piping set for R410A. Otherwise, this may result in
broken copper pipes or faults.
• A circuit breaker should be installed depending on the mounting site of the unit.
Without a circuit breaker, the danger of electric shock exists.

of the indoor unit, the fan of the outdoor
unit continues turning for 10 to 60
seconds to cool the electric parts down.
•In heating operation, condensate or
water due to defrosting will flow.
Do not cover the drain port of the outdoor
unit because such water may freeze in
the chilly area.
•When the outdoor unit is hung on the

PREPARATION BEFORE OPERATION
■To install the batteries
■To fix the remote controller holder to the wall
1. Slide the cover to take it off.
2. Install two dry batteries AAA.LR03 (alkaline).
The direction of the batteries should match the
marks in the case.
3. Replace the cover at its original position.
1. Choose a place from where the signals can reach the unit.
2. Fix the remote controller holder to a wall, a pillar or similar
location with the provided screws.
3. Place the remote controller in the remote controller holder.
NOTE
Notes on batteries
●When replacing the batteries, use batteries of the same
type, and replace both old batteries together.
●When the system is not used for a long time, take the
batteries out.
● The batteries will last for approximately 1 year. However, if
the remote controller display begins to fade and degradation
of reception performance occurs within a year, replace both
batteries with new size AAA.LR03 (alkaline).
● The attached batteries are provided for the initial use of
the system.
The usable period of the batteries may be short depending
on the manufactured date of the air conditioner.
Notes on the remote controller
● Never expose the remote controller to direct sunlight.
● Dust on the signal transmitter or receiver will reduce the
sensitivity. Wipe off dust with soft cloth.
● Signal communication may be disabled if an electronic-
starter-type uorescent lamp (such as inverter-type lamps)
is in the room. Consult the shop if that is the case.
●If the remote controller signals happen to operate another
appliance, move that appliance to somewhere else, or
consult the service shop.
●When the remote controller is not in use, please close the
slide cover to prevent failure.

be controlled from the remote controller.
●Handle the remote controller with care. Dropping it or getting it wet may compromise its signal transmission
capability.
●After new batteries are inserted into the remote controller, the unit will initially require approximately 10
seconds to respond to commands and operate.
●When remote controller is not in use for about 3 minutes during OFF condition, indicated by on the
display, the LCD will turn off.
●During clock setting, the LCD will turn off about 10 minutes later if the remote controller is not in use.

AUTOMATIC OPERATION
The device will automatically determine the mode of operation, HEAT or COOL depending on the current
room temperature. The selected mode of operation will change when the room temperature varies.
However, the mode of operation will not change when indoor unit is connected to multi type outdoor unit.
VARIOUS FUNCTIONS
■Auto Restart Control
●If there is a power failure, operation will be automatically restarted when the power is resumed with previous operation
mode and air
ow direction.
(As the operation is not stopped by remote controller.)
●If you intend not to continue the operation when the power is resumed, switch off the power supply.
When you switch on the circuit breaker, the operation will be automatically restarted with previous operation mode
and air
ow direction.
Note: 1. If you do not require Auto Restart Control, please consult your sales agent.
2. Auto Restart Control is not available when Timer or Sleep Timer mode is set.
■As the settings are stored in the memory of the remote controller, you
only have to press the (START/STOP) button next time.
Press the MODE selector button so that the display indicates the
(AUTO) mode of operation.
● When AUTO has been selected, the device will automatically
determine the mode of operation, HEAT or COOL depending on
the current room temperature. However the mode of operation will
not change when indoor unit is connected to multi type outdoor
unit.
●If the mode automatically selected by the unit is not satisfactory,
manually change the mode setting (HEAT, DEHUMIDIFY, COOL
or FAN).
Press the (FAN SPEED) button to select AUTO, HIGH, MED, LOW
or SILENT.
Press the (START/STOP) button.
Operation starts with a beep.
Press the button again to stop operation.
Set the desired room temperature with the TEMPERATURE buttons

HEATING OPERATION
●Use the device for heating when the outdoor temperature is under 21°C.
When it is too warm (over 21°C), the heating function may not work in order to protect the device.
●In order to maintain reliability of the device, please use this device when outdoor temperature is above
–15°C.
Press the MODE selector button so that the display indicates
(HEAT).
Set the desired FAN SPEED with the (FAN SPEED) button
(the display indicates the setting).

(SILENT) (LOW)
Set the desired room temperature with the TEMPERATURE buttons
(the display indicates the setting).
The temperature setting and the actual room temperature may
vary depending on conditions.
Press the (START/STOP) button. Heating operation starts with
a beep. Press the button again to stop operation.
■As the settings are stored in the memory of the remote controller, you
only have to press the (START/STOP) button next time.
■During AUTO fan, the fan speed automatically changes as below:
● When the difference between room temperature and setting temperature
is large, fan starts to run at HI speed.
● After room temperature reaches the preset temperature, fan speed
will be changed to lower speed to obtain optimum room temperature
condition for natural healthy heating.
START
STOP
Defrosting will be performed about once an hour when frost forms on the heat exchange of the outdoor unit,
for 5~10 minutes each time.
During defrosting operation, the operation lamp blinks in a cycle of 3 seconds on and 0.5 second off.
The maximum time for defrosting is 20 minutes.
However, if the indoor unit is connected to multi type outdoor unit, the maximum time for defrosting is 15
minutes.
