DUCT AND CEILING TYPE
The following is how to adjust air flow direction when air outlet part (sold separately) is used with the
indoor unit.
• Use a dry cloth to wipe the indoor unit and remote control.
• A cloth dampened with cold water may be used on the indoor unit if it is very dirty.
• Never use a damp cloth on the remote control.
• DO NOT use a chemically-treated duster for wiping or leave such material on the unit for long, because it
may damage or fade the surface of the unit.
• DO NOT use benzine, thinner, polishing powder, or similar solvents for cleaning. These may cause the plastic
surface to crack or deform.
CLEANING THE INDOOR UNIT AND REMOTE CONTROL
COOLING
To effectively cool
the whole room,
please set the
louver so that the
air can come out
horizontally.
HEATING
To effectively heat the
bottom of the room,
Please set the louver
so that the air can
come out downwards.
WARNING
CAUTION
If you do not plan to use the unit for at least 1 month.
• Operate the fan for about half a day to dry the inside of the unit.
• Stop the air conditioner and disconnect power.
• Remove the batteries from the remote control.
Before you clean the air conditioner, be sure to disconnect the power supply.
CHECKS BEFORE OPERATION
• Check that the wiring is not broken off or disconnected.
• Check that the air filter is installed.
• Check that the outdoor unit air outlet or inlet is not blocked.
CAUTION
CLEANING THE AIR FILTER
• The air filter can prevent the dust or other particulate from going inside. In case of blockage of the filter,
the working efficiency of the air conditioner may be greatly decreased. Therefore, the filter must be
cleaned once every two weeks.
• If the air conditioner is positioned in a dust place, the cleaning frequency of the air filter must be increased.
• If the accumulated dust is too heavy to be cleaned, please replace the filter with a new one (replaceable
air filter is an optional fitting).

AIR CONDITIONER OPERATIONS
AND PERFORMANCE
THREE-MINUTE PROTECTION FEATURE
A protection feature prevents the air conditioner from being activated for approximately 3 minutes
when it restarts immediately after operation.
POWER FAILURE
Power failure during operation will stop the unit completely.
• The OPERATION lamp on the indoor unit will start flashing when power is restored.
• To restart operation, push the ON/OFF button on the remote control.
• Disconnect the unit with the power and then connect the unit with the power again.
• Push the ON/OFF button on the remote control to restart operation.
AIR CONDITIONER OPERATING CONDITIONS
For proper performance, run the air conditioner under the following temperature conditions:
Mode Cooling operationHeating operation Drying operation
Temperature
1. If air conditioner is used outside of the above conditions, certain safety protection features
may come into operation and cause the unit to function abnormally.
2. Room relative humidity less than 80%. If the air conditioner operates in excess of this
figure, the surface of the air conditioner may attract condensation. Please setthe vertical
air flow louver to its maximum angle (vertically to the floor), and set HIGH fan mode.
3. Optimum performance will be achieved within these operating temperature.

SPECIAL FUNCTIONS: REFRIGERANT LEAKAGE DETECTION (OPTIONAL):
With this new technology, the display area will appear EC (if applicable) and the LED
indication lamps continue flashing when the outdoor unit detects refrigerant leakage.
SPECIAL FUNCTIONS: LOUVER ANGLE MEMORY FUNCTION (OPTIONAL):
For some models, the machine is specially designed with louver angle memory function. Power failure
during operation or pressing the ON/OFF button on the remote control will stop the unit completely.
When the power restores or pressing the ON/OFF button on the remote control again, the unit restarts
automatically with the previous open angle of the horizontal louver by the memory function. So we
strongly recommend that the open angle of the horizontal louver should not be set too small, in case the
condensed water forms and drops from the horizontal louver. Press the MANUAL CONTROL BUTTON and
the open angle of the horizontal louver will be restored to the standard angle.
INSTALLATION
LOCATION
• During cooling operation, the air conditioner will
dry the room air, so please fix a pipe to drain all
the water away from the air conditioner.
• Please keep the indoor unit more than 1m/40"
away from the TV set and the radio in order to avoid
the picture and noise interference.
• Powerful radio transmitters or any other devices
radiating high frequency radio waves can cause
the air conditioner to malfunction.
• If the air conditioner operates in an atmosphere
containing oils (machine oil), salt (near a coastal
area), sulfide gas (near a hot spring), etc., such
substances may lead to failure of the air conditioner.
BE CAREFUL OF NOISE OR VIBRATIONS
• Please install the unit in a stable place to avoid
noise or vibrations.
• Locate the outdoor unit where noise emitted by it or
hot air from its air outlet will not cause nuisance
to your neighbors.
• If the air conditioner sounds abnormal during
operation, contact the service professional that
installed your unit or Ideal-Air
TM
tech support.
WIRE
• To avoid electric shock, please link the air
conditioner with the ground. The plug in the air
conditioner has joined the ground wiring, please
don't change it freely.
• Don't pull the power cord.
• When linking the air conditioner with the ground,
observe the local rules.
• If you want to change the power wiring, please contact
a certified electrician.
RELOCATION
If you move out or if it is desired to relocate
the air conditioner, consult an HVAC technician,
because special certification is required to
withdraw Freon, purge air and perform other
operations that are necessary.
TROUBLES AND CAUSES
