1. New model
Use the specified refrigerant only
Never use any refrigerant other than that specified.
Doing so may cause a burst, an explosion, or fire when the unit is being used, serviced, or disposed of.
Correct refrigerant is specified in the manuals and on the spec labels provided with our products.
We will not be held responsible for mechanical failure, system malfunction, unit breakdown or accidents caused by
failure to follow the instructions.
<Preparation before the repair service>
Prepare the proper tools.
Prepare the proper protectors.
Provide adequate ventilation.
After stopping the operation of the air conditioner, turn off the power-supply breaker and remove the power plug.
Discharge the capacitor before the work involving the electric parts.
<Precautions during the repair service>
Do not perform the work involving the electric parts with wet hands.
Do not pour water into the electric parts.
Do not touch the refrigerant.
Do not touch the hot or cold areas in the refrigeration cycle.
When the repair or the inspection of the circuit needs to be done without turning off the power, exercise great caution not to
touch the live parts.

● The air coverage is the figure up to the
position where the air speed is 1 ft./s.,
when air is blown out horizontally from
the unit properly at the High speed posi-
tion.
The coverage should be used only as a
general guideline since it varies accord-
ing to the size of the room and furniture
arranged inside the room.

7SERVICE FUNCTIONS
7-1. TIMER SHORT MODE
• For service, the following set time can be shortened by bridging the timer short mode point on the electronic control P.C.
board. (Refer to 9-7.)
• The set time for the ON/OFF timer can be reduced to 1 second for each minute.
• After the breaker is turned on, the time for starting the compressor, which normally takes 3 minutes, can be reduced to 3
seconds. Restarting the compressor, which takes 3 minutes, cannot be reduced.

Table 1
7-2. HOW TO SET REMOTE CONTROLLER EXCLUSIVELY FOR A PARTICULAR INDOOR UNIT
A maximum of 4 indoor units with wireless remote controllers can be used in a room.
To operate the indoor units individually with each remote controller, assign a number to each remote controller according
to the number of the indoor unit.
This setting can be set only when all the following conditions are met:
• The remote controller is powered OFF.
• Weekly timer is not set.
• Weekly timer is not being edited.
2. How to set the remote controller
(1) Hold down button on the remote controller for 2 seconds to enter the pairing mode.
(2) Press button again and assign a number to each remote controller.
Each press of button advances the number in the following order: 1 → 2 → 3 → 4.
(3) Press button to complete the pairing setting.
After the setting, turn ON the power supply and with the remote controller headed towards the indoor unit, press the
STOP/OPERATE (OFF/ON) button. If 1 or 2 beeps is heard from the indoor unit, the setting is completed correctly.
The remote controller that first sends a signal to an indoor unit will be regarded as the remote controller for the indoor
unit.
Once they are set, the indoor unit will only receive the signal from the assigned remote controller afterwards.
1. How to modify the electronic control P.C. board
Turn OFF the power supply before modification. To assign a number to each indoor unit , cut off “JR05” and “JR06” on the
electronic control P.C. board as shown in Table 1. (Refer to 9-7.)

NOTE:
• The operation settings are memorized when 10 seconds has passed after the indoor unit was operated with the
remote controller.
• If main power is turned OFF or a power failure occurs while AUTO START/STOP timer is active, the timer setting is
cancelled.
• If the unit has been off with the remote controller before power failure, the auto restart function does not work as the
power button of the remote controller is off.
• To prevent breaker tripping due to the rush of starting current, systematize other home appliance not to turn on at
the same time.
• When some air conditioners are connected to the same supply system, if they are operated before power failure,
the starting current of all the compressors may flow simultaneously at restart.
Therefore, the special counter-measures are required to prevent the main voltage-drop or the rush of the starting
current by adding to the system that allows the units to start one by one.
C111
JR77
IC101
How to disable “AUTO RESTART FUNCTION”
Turn off the main power for the unit.
Cut the jumper wire to JR77 on the indoor electronic control P.C. board. (Refer to 9-7.)
Operation
If the main power has been cut, the operation settings remain.
After the power is restored, the unit restarts automatically according to the memory.
(However, it takes at least 3 minutes for the compressor to start running.)
7-3. AUTO RESTART FUNCTION
When the indoor unit is controlled with the remote controller, the operation mode, the set temperature, and the fan speed
are memorized by the indoor electronic control P.C. board. “AUTO RESTART FUNCTION” automatically starts operation
in the same mode just before the shutoff of the main power.
