Safety precautions
•Thoroughly read the following safety precautions before using the unit.
•Observe these precautions carefully to ensure safety.
WARNING Indicates a risk of death or serious injury.
CAUTION Indicates a risk of serious injury or structural damage.
•After reading this manual, pass it on to the end user to retain for future reference.
•Keep this manual for future reference and refer to it as necessary. This manual should be made available

General precautions
WARNING
Do not install the unit in a place where large
amounts of oil, steam, organic solvents, or corrosive
gases, such as sulfuric gas, are present or where
acidic/alkaline solutions or sprays are used
frequently. These substances can compromise the
performance of the unit or cause certain components
of the unit to corrode, which can result in electric
shock, malfunctions, smoke, or fire.
To reduce the risk of shorting, current leakage,
electric shock, malfunctions, smoke, or fire, do not
wash the controller with water or any other liquid.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, malfunctions,
smoke or fire, do not operate the switches/buttons or
touch other electrical parts with wet hands.
When disinfecting the unit using alcohol, ventilate
the room adequately. The fumes of the alcohol
around the unit may cause a fire or explosion when
the unit is turned on.
To reduce the risk of injury or electric shock, before
spraying a chemical around the controller, stop the
operation and cover the controller.
To reduce the risk of injury or electric shock, stop the
operation and switch off the power supply before
cleaning, maintaining, or inspecting the controller.
If any abnormality (e.g., burning smell) is noticed,
stop the operation, turn off the power switch, and
consult your dealer. Continued use of the product
may result in electric shock, malfunctions, or fire.
Properly install all required covers to keep moisture
and dust out of the controller. Dust accumulation and
water can cause electric shock, smoke, or fire.
CAUTION
To reduce the risk of fire or explosion, do not place
flammable materials or use flammable sprays
around the controller.
To reduce the risk of damage to the controller, do not
directly spray insecticide or other flammable sprays
on the controller.
To reduce the risk of environmental pollution, consult
an authorized agency for proper disposal of remote
controller.
To reduce the risk of electric shock or malfunctions,
do not touch the touch panel, switches, or buttons
with a pointy or sharp object.

5
To reduce the risk of injury and electric shock, avoid
contact with sharp edges of certain parts.
To avoid injury from broken glass, do not apply
excessive force on the glass parts.
To reduce the risk of injury, wear protective gear
when working on the controller.
Precautions for moving or repairing the controller
WARNING CAUTION
The controller should be repaired or moved only by
qualified personnel. Do not disassemble or modify
the controller.
Improper installation or repair may cause injury,
electric shock, or fire.
To reduce the risk of shorting, electric shock, fire, or
malfunction, do not touch the circuit board with tools
or with your hands, and do not allow dust to
accumulate on the circuit board.
Additional precautions

•Operation modes that are not available to the connected indoor 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.

18
Basic operations
Auto (dual set point) and Setback modes:
When the operation mode is set to the Auto (dual set point) mode or the Setback mode, two
set temperatures (one each for cooling and heating) can be set. Depending on the room
temperature, indoor unit will automatically operate in either the cooling or heating mode and
keep the room temperature within the preset range.
ŶDifferences between the two modes
 Auto (dual set point) mode
The set temperatures that are specified for the Cool/Drying mode and the Heat mode will
be used to automatically control the room temperature to stay within the set temperatures.
This mode is especially effective during the in-between seasons, when the temperature
difference between the highest and the lowest is large and both heating and cooling
modes are used within the same day.
 Setback mode
Room temperature is controlled to stay within the set temperature range that is specified
for the Setback mode. By leaving sufficient temperature differential between the set
temperature for cooling (upper limit) and heating (lower limit), it is possible to keep the
room temperature within the specified range without overworking the air conditioners.
This setting will be especially effective during periods of non-occupancy.

The minimum temperature difference requirement between cooling and
heating preset temperatures (varies with the models of indoor units
connected) is met.
If preset temperatures are set in a way that does not meet the minimum
temperature difference requirement, both preset temperatures will
automatically be changed within the allowable setting ranges.
