Timer
If the air conditioner is on standby, the timer can be set to turn on the air conditioner after a
user-specified period.
If the air conditioner is currently operating, the timer can be set to turn off the air conditioner
after a user-specified period.
To set the timer:
1. Press the timer button on the remote control or control panel.
2.When the timer button on the control panel starts flashing, press the increase and
decrease buttons to adjust the desired time for the timer (1–24 hours). Each press will
adjust the time by one hour.
3.Wait for 5 seconds and the display will stop flashing, confirming the timer has been
set.
Sleep mode
As our bodies get colder at night when sleeping, the sleep mode will gradually increase the
temperature over the night, keeping you warm.
•When the air conditioner is in cooling mode, press the sleep mode button on the
remote control or control panel to activate sleep mode.
Frost protection
In cooling mode, if the temperature of the exhaust pipe is below 0°C for more than three
minutes, the air conditioner will automatically enter frost protection. Once the temperature
of the exhaust pipe rises to an optimal temperature, the air conditioner will automatically
continue operating.
Overflow protection
Water will be condensed within the air conditioner over extended use. When enough water
is condensed needing it to be emptied, the air conditioner will emit an alarm and the full
indicator will start flashing.
Refer to the drainage details in the ‘Cleaning & Care’ section of this user guide for more
information.
Compressor protection
To increase the service life of the compressor, it has a three-minute delay booting protection
function after the compressor is turned off.
Notes:
To minimise the risk of this occurring, ensure the air conditioner is operating in an
environment with an ambient temperature between 7–35°C.
