WARNING
• Do not pull or deform the power supply cord.
Pulling and misuse of the power supply cord can
result in damage to the unit and cause electrical
shock.
• Be careful not to expose your body directly to
the outlet air for a long time. It may affect your
physical conditions.
• When using the air conditioner for infants,
children, elderly, bedridden, or disabled people
make sure the room temperature is suitable for
those in the room.
• Never insert objects into the unit. Inserting objects
can result in injury due to the high speed rotation
of internal fans.
• Ground the air conditioner without fail. Do not
connect the grounding wire to gas pipe, water
pipe, lightning rod or telephone grounding wire.
Incomplete grounding may cause electric shock.
• If anything is abnormal with the air conditioner (ex.
a burning smell), stop the operation immediately
and turn the circuit breaker OFF.
• The appliance shall be installed in accordance
with national wiring regulations. Improper cable
connection can cause the power supply cord, plug
and the electrical outlet to overheat and cause fire.
• If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by
the manufacturer or its service agent or a similarly
qualified person in order to avoid a hazard. Use only
the manufacture-specified power cord for replacement.
• Do not splash or pour water directly on the unit. Water
can cause electrical shock or equipment damage.
• Do not attempt to install/remove/repair the unit by
yourself. Incorrect work will cause electric shock,
water leak, fire etc. Consult your dealer or other
qualified service personnel for the installation/removal/
repair of the unit.
CAUTION
• Open a window or door periodically to ventilate
the room, especially when using gas appliances.
Insufficient ventilation may cause oxygen shortage.
• Do not operate the buttons with wet hand. It may
cause electric shock.
• For safety, turn the circuit breaker off when not using
the unit for an extended period of time.
• Check the outdoor unit mounting rack periodically for
wear and to make sure it is firmly in place.
• Do not put anything on the outdoor unit nor step on
it. The object or the person may fall down or drop,
causing injury.
• This unit is designed for residential use. Do not use for
other applications such as in a kennel or greenhouse
to raise animals or grow plants.
• Do not place a vessel with water on the unit. If water
penetrates into the unit, electrical insulations may
deteriorate and cause electric shock.
• Do not block the air inlets nor outlets of the unit. It
may cause insufficient performance or troubles.
• Be sure to stop the operation and turn the circuit
breaker off before performing any maintenance or
cleaning. A fan is rotating inside the unit and you may
get injured.
• Make sure to connect the air conditioner to power
supply of the rated voltage and frequency. Use of a
power supply with improper voltage and frequency
can result in equipment damage and possible fire.
• Do not install the unit in a place where inflammable
gas may leak. It may cause fire.
Install the unit in a place with minimal dust, fumes and
moisture in the air.
• Arrange the drain hose to ensure smooth drainage.
Insufficient drainage may cause wetting of the room,
furniture etc.
• Make sure a leak breaker or a circuit breaker is
installed, depending on the installation location, to
avoid electrical shock.

heating operations.
SET PROPER AIR FLOW DIRECTION TO OBTAIN
THE BEST AIR CIRCULATION
KEEP FILTER CLEAN TO ENSURE THE MOST
EFFICIENT OPERATION
MAKE MOST OF THE TIMER OFF FUNCTION
TURN OFF THE CIRCUIT BREAKER WHEN THE
UNIT IS NOT USED FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD
OF TIME

INDOOR TEMP.
OUTDOOR TEMP.
COOLING upper limit 32˚C 43˚C
lower limit 21˚C –10˚C
HEATING upper limit 27˚C 24˚C
lower limit – –25˚C
• The built-in protective device may prevent the unit
from operating when used out of this range.
• Condensation may form on the air outlet if the unit
operates continuously in the COOL or DRY mode
when humidity is over 80 percent.
WHEN POWER FAILURE OCCURS
This air conditioner has a memory function to store
settings when a power failure occurs.
After power recovery, the unit will automatically
re-start in the same settings which were active before
the power failure, except for timer settings.
If the timers were set before a power failure, they will
need to be re-set after power recovery.
PREHEATING FUNCTION
In the HEAT operation, the indoor fan may not start for
two to five minutes after the unit is turned on to prevent
cold air from blowing out of the unit.
DE-ICING FUNCTION
• When ice forms on the heat exchanger in the outdoor
unit during the HEAT operation, an automatic de-icer
provides heat for about 5 to 10 minutes to remove
the ice. During de-icing, the inside and outside fans
stop operating.
• After de-icing is completed, the unit automatically
resumes operation in the HEAT mode.
HEATING EFFICIENCY
• The unit employs a heat pump that draws heat from
the outside air and releases it into the room. The
outside air temperature therefore greatly affects the
heating efficiency.
• If the heating efficiency is reduced due to low outside
temperatures, use an additional heater.
• It takes time to warm up and heat the entire room
because of the forced air circulation system.

ENGLISH
BEFORE CALLING FOR SERVICE
The following conditions do not denote equip-
ment malfunctions
UNIT DOES NOT OPERATE
The unit will not operate if it is turned on immediately
after it is turned off. The unit will not operate
immediately after the mode is changed. This is to
protect the unit. Wait 3 minutes before operating the
unit.
UNIT DOES NOT SEND OUT WARM AIR
The unit is preheating or de-icing.
ODORS
Carpet and furniture odors that entered into the unit
may be sent out from the unit.
CRACKING NOISE
This sound is generated by the friction of the unit
expanding or connecting due to a temperature change.
A LOW BUZZING NOISE
This is a sound of the unit generating Plasmacluster
ions.
SWISHING NOISE
The soft, swishing noise is the sound of the refrigerant
flowing inside the unit.
MIST SEEN AT INDOOR AIR OUTLET
In cooling operation, this is caused by the difference
between the room air temperature and the air
discharged.
WATER VAPOUR
In heating operation, water vapour may flow out of the
outdoor unit during de-icing.
THE OUTDOOR UNIT DOES NOT STOP
After stopping the operation, the outdoor unit will rotate
its' fan for about a minute to cool down the unit.
ODOR EMITTED FROM THE PLASMACLUSTER
AIR OUTLET
This is the smell of ozone generated from the
Plasmacluster Ion generator. The ozone concentration
is very small, posing no adverse effect on your health.
The ozone discharged into the air rapidly decomposes,
and its density in the room will not increase.
Check the following points before calling for
service.
IF THE UNIT FAILS TO OPERATE
Check if the circuit breaker has tripped or the fuse has
blown.
IF THE UNIT FAILS TO HEAT (OR COOL) THE
ROOM EFFECTIVELY
• Check the filters. If dirty, clean them.
• Check the outdoor unit to make sure nothing is
blocking the air inlet or outlet.
• Check the thermostat is proper setting.
• Make sure windows and doors are closed tightly.
IF THE UNIT FAILS TO RECEIVE THE REMOTE
CONTROL SIGNAL
• Check whether the remote control batteries have
become old and weak.
• Try to send the signal again with the remote control
pointed properly towards the unit’s signal receiver
window.
• Check whether the remote control batteries are
installed properly.
Please call for service when TEMPERATURE
INDICATOR on the indicator panel blink.
