The indicator comes on if the corre-
sponding timer is set.
Up/Down Air Direction indica-
tor
The indicator shows the direc-
tion of the outcoming airflow.
“One Hour Only” indicator
Displayed if the airflow is set to
Low and downward during COOL
or DRY mode. (Operation varies
according to model.)
The indicator goes off after one
hour, at which time the airflow di-
rection also changes.
Room Temperature display
Shows the room temperature.
Louver display
Indicates the action of the swing
louver. Does not appear if the
louver is stationary.
(Power On indicator)
Indicates that the power is on.
Fan Speed indicator
Shows the selected fan speed.
Ventilation indicator
Appears when the unit is running in
Ventilation mode.
Caution
●Only the Power on indicator lights when the unit is stopped and power supplied to the unit.
●If you press a button for a feature that is not installed in the indoor unit, the remote controller will display the “Not Available”
message.
If you are using the remote controller to operate multiple indoor units, this message will appear only if the feature is not
present at the parent unit.
●When power is turned ON for the first time, it is normal that “PLEASE WAIT” is displayed on the room temperature indication
(For max. 2minutes). Please wait until this “PLEASE WAIT” indication disappears then start the operation.
