The following problems are not a malfunction and in most situations will not require repairs.
Do not attempt to fix these yourself! Contact an authorized service provider immediately!
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 changes from COOL/HEAT mode to FAN mode
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.
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.
5. Troubleshooting
Common Issues
Safety precautions

Kaden Owners Manual | 13
Issue Possible Causes
Both the indoor unit and outdoor unit make noises
Low hissing sound during operation: This is normal and is
caused by refrigerant 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 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.
