To reduce the risk of injury or malfunction, read “Safety Precautions” carefully before
servicing the unit.
The seriousness is classified by the following indicators.
WARNING Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could
result in death or serious injury.
CAUTION Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could
result in minor or moderate injury, damage to the unit or its
components and/or property.
• Serious injuries include loss of vision, bodily injuries, burns, electric shock, fractures or poisoning, which
require prolonged medical treatment and will leave aer-eects.
• Minor or moderate injuries include bodily injuries, burns or electric shock, which do not require prolonged
medical treatment.
• Property includes housing, household goods, livestock or pets.
Safety symbols and meanings
This must be done. This must not be done.
WARNING
Disconnect power supply from the unit before performing any service. Beware that
some residual voltage may remain in the unit immediately after the power is
disconnected.
There is a risk of electric shock.
Use the power supply dedicated single outlet circuit with a UL recognized short-
circuit and ground-fault protective breaker.
Failure to use correct power supply may cause fire or electric shock.
Electrical work must be performed by qualified electrical personnel.
Failure to use qualified electrical personnel for electrical work may cause fire, electric
shock, injury, malfunction or water leaks.
Refrigerant services must be performed by a licensed professional only.
Failure to use licensed professionals for refrigerant services may cause fire, burns, injury
or malfunction.
Always wear proper eye protection and gloves while handling refrigerant. Be careful
not to allow refrigerant come into contact with eye or skin.
Failure to do so may lead to loss of vision or burns.
Avoid refrigerant work near flammable materials. Work in a well-ventilated area
only.
Failure to do so may lead to explosion, fire or lack of oxygen.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

6
Maintain the temperature of the refrigerant container below 104 °F (40 °C).
Failure to do so may lead to explosion or fire.
Brazing must be performed by a qualified technician only.
Failure to do so may lead to fire, burns, injury or malfunction.
When brazing, always wear eye protection and gloves.
Failure to do so may lead to loss of vision or burns.
Work in a well-ventilated area while brazing.
Failure to do so may lead to explosion, fire or lack of oxygen.
Use official MovinCool parts for servicing.
Non-genuine accessories or incomplete installation may cause fire, electric shock or
water leaks.
CAUTION
Be aware of any sharp edges when working on unit.
There is a risk of injury.
Do not use sharp object to press the reset button when resetting communication
module.
This may damage the control panel.
Do not use cleaners that contain chlorine when cleaning pipes of refrigerant system.
Chlorine cleaners may damage pipes.

TROUBLESHOOTING
Initial Inspection
Before troubleshooting, the following inspection should be performed.
1. Check the voltage of the power source.
115 V, 1 Phase, 60 Hz
2. Check the operation and condition of the fuse or circuit breaker in the power source.
3. Check the power cord. If dirty, wipe with a clean dry cloth. If damage or excess play is found,
replace the cord.
4. Check the air filters. If dirty, clean the air filters as described in the operation manual. If damage
is found, replace the filters.
5. Check the drain tank and empty the water. If damage is found, replace the tank.
WARNING
• Disconnect power supply from the unit before performing any service. Beware that some
residual voltage may remain in the unit immediately after the power is disconnected.
There is a risk of electric shock.

Inspection Before Disassembly
1. Inspection of plate fins on heat exchangers
Remove air filters and check plate fins for any dirt, dust, lint, or debris that may cause
insucient cooling performance. If necessary, clean the plate fins.
2. Inspection of cooling capacity performance
Measure the dierence in air temperature between the inlet of the evaporator and the cool air
vent. If the dierence is out of the range of the graph on page 12, proceed with the solution
of “Poor cooling performance” on page 18.
