►Before installing the unit, make sure you read all the
“Safety Precautions”.
►The “Safety Precautions” provide very important
points regarding safety. Make sure you follow them.
►Please report to or take consent by the supply
authority before connection to the system.
Disposing of the unit
When you need to dispose of the unit, consult your dealer.
Caution:
• Do not use any sharp object to push the buttons, as this may
damage the remote controller.
• Never block or cover the indoor or outdoor unit’s air intakes or
outlets.
• This air conditioner is NOT intended for use by children or infirm
persons without supervision.
• Young children must be supervised to ensure that they do not
play with the air conditioner.
• If the refrigeration gas blows out or leaks, stop the operation of
the air conditioner, thoroughly ventilate the room, and contact
your dealer.
• When installing or relocating, or servicing the air conditioner, use
only the specified refrigerant (R410A) to charge the refrigerant
lines. Do not mix it with any other refrigerant and do not allow air
to remain in the lines.
If air is mixed with the refrigerant, then it can be the cause of
abnormal high pressure in the refrigerant line, and may result in
an explosion and other hazards.
 Theuseofanyrefrigerantotherthanthatspeciedforthe
system will cause mechanical failure or system malfunction or
unit breakdown. In the worst case, this could lead to a serious
impediment to securing product safety.
Warning:
• For appliances not accessible to the general public.
• The unit must not be installed by the user. Ask the dealer or an
authorized company to install the unit. If the unit is installed
improperly, water leakage, electric shock or fire may result.
• Do not alter the unit. It may cause fire, electric shock, injury or
water leakage.
• Do not stand on, or place any items on the unit.
• Do not splash water over the unit and do not touch the unit with
wet hands. An electric shock may result.
• Do not spray combustible gas close to the unit. Fire may result.
• Do not place a gas heater or any other open-flame appliance
where it will be exposed to the air discharged from the unit.
Incomplete combustion may result.
• Do not remove the front panel or the fan guard from the outdoor
unit when it is running.
• When you notice exceptionally abnormal noise or vibration, stop
operation, turn off the power switch, and contact your dealer.
• Never insert fingers, sticks etc. into the air intakes or outlets.
• If you detect odd smells, stop using the unit, turn off the power
switch and consult your dealer. Otherwise, a breakdown, electric
shock or fire may result.

Note: (Only for IR wireless remote controller)
When using the IR wireless remote controller, point it towards the receiver on the indoor
unit.
If the IR wireless remote controller is operated within approximately two minutes after
power is supplied to the indoor unit, the indoor unit may beep twice as the unit is
performing the initial automatic check.
The indoor unit beeps to confirm that the signal transmitted from the IR wireless remote
controller has been received. Signals can be received up to approximately 7 meters, 275
19/32 inch in a direct line from the indoor unit in an area 45° to the left and right of the
unit. However, illumination such as fluorescent lights and strong light can affect the ability
of the indoor unit to receive signals.
If the operation lamp near the receiver on the indoor unit is flashing, the unit needs to be
inspected. Consult your dealer for service.
Handle the IR wireless remote controller carefully! Do not drop the IR wireless remote
controller or subject it to strong shocks. In addition, do not get the IR wireless remote
controller wet or leave it in a location with high humidity.
To avoid misplacing the IR wireless remote controller, install the holder included with
the IR wireless remote controller on a wall and be sure to always place the IR wireless
remote controller in the holder after use.

■About the operation method, refer to the operation manual that comes with each remote controller.
3.1. Turning ON/OFF
[ON] [OFF]
Note:
Even if you press the ON/OFF button immediately after shutting down the operation is progress, the air conditioner will not start for about 3 minutes.
This is to prevent the internal components from being damaged.
■Settable preset temperature range
Operation mode Preset temperature range
Cool/Drying 67 ~ 87 ºF (19 ~ 30 ºC)
Heat 63 ~ 83 ºF (17 ~ 28 ºC)
Auto 67 ~ 83 ºF (19 ~ 28 ºC)
Fan/Ventilation Not settable
Press the [ON/OFF] button.
The ON/OFF lamp will light up in

OFF
ON
OFF
Each pressing of the [F1] button cycles
through the following operation modes.
Select the desired operation mode.
• Operation modes that are not available
to the connected outdoor unit models
will not appear on the display.
What the blinking mode icon means
The mode icon will blink when other indoor units in the same refrigerant
system (connected to the same outdoor unit) are already operated in a
different mode. In this case, the rest of the unit in the same group can
only be operated in the same mode.
3.2. Mode Selection Automatic operation
■According to a set temperature, cooling operation starts if the room
temperature is too hot and heating operation starts if the room
temperature is too cold.
■During automatic operation, if the room temperature changes and
remains 2.0 °C, 4 °F or more above the set temperature for 15
minutes, the air conditioner switches to cool mode. In the same way,
if the room temperature remains 2.0 °C, 4 °F or more below the set
temperature for 15 minutes, the air conditioner switches to heat mode.
Cool mode 15 minutes (switches
from heating to cooling)
Set temperature +2.0°C, +4 °F
Set temperature
Set temperature -2.0°C, -4 °F
15 minutes (switches
from cooling to heating)
Because the room temperature is automatically adjusted in order to
maintain a fixed effective temperature, cooling operation is performed
a few degrees warmer and heating operation is performed a few
degrees cooler than the set room temperature once the temperature is
reached (automatic energy-saving operation).
