Safety Information
This appliance must be properly grounded. Do not ground the
appliance to a gas pipe, plastic water pipe, or telephone line.
• Failure to do so may result in electric shock, fire, an explosion,
or other problems with the product.
• Neverplug the power cord into a socket that is not grounded correctly
and make sure that it is in accordance with local and national codes.
CAUTION
Install your appliance on a level and hard floor that can support
its weight.
• Failing to do so may result in abnormal vibrations, noise, or
problems with the product.
Install the drain hose properly so that water is drained correctly.
• Failing to do so may result in water overflowing and property
damage. Avoid adding drain to waste pipes as odours may
arise in the future.
The product shall be stored in a room with no ignition sources
(e.g. open flames, gas appliance, electric heater, etc.).
• Note that the refrigerant has no odour.
When using the outdoor unit for heating, make sure not to
connect a drain hose, a drain plug and a drain cap so that
draining is performed more rapidlywith less risk of freezing.
• The water generated during the heating operation in the
outdoor unit may overflow and result in property damage.
In particular, in winter, if a block of ice falls, it may result in
injury, death or property damage.
Do not install the product in a place where thermo-hygrostat is
needed (such as serverroom, machinery room, computerroom, etc.)
• Those places do not provide guaranteed operation condition of the
product therefore performance can be poor in these places.

Troubleshooting
Refer to the following chart if the air conditioner operates abnormally. This may save time and unnecessary
expense.
Problem Solution
The air conditioner
does not operate
immediately after it
has been restarted.
• Because of the protective mechanism, the appliance does not start
operating immediately to keep the unit from overloading. The air
conditioner will start in 3 minutes.
The air conditioner
does not operate
at all.
• Check whether the power is turned on, and then operate the air conditioner
again.
• Check whether the auxiliary power switch (MCCB, ELB) is turned on.
• If the auxiliary power switch (MCCB, ELB) is turned off, the air conditioner
does not work although you press the (Power) button.
• When you clean the air conditioner or do not use it for an extended period of
time, turn off the auxiliary power switch (MCCB, ELB).
• After the air conditioner is not used for an extended period of time, be sure
to turn on the auxiliary power switch (MCCB, ELB) 6 hours before starting
operation.
NOTE
• The auxiliary power switch (MCCB, ELB) is sold separately.
• Make sure that auxiliary power switch (MCCB, ELB) is installed in the
distribution box inside the building.
• If the air conditioner is turned off by the Timed off function, turn on the air
conditioner again by pressing the (Power) button.
The temperature
does not change.
• Check whether the Fan mode is running. In the Fan mode, the air conditioner
controls the set temperature automatically, and you cannot change the set
temperature.
Warm air does not
come out of the air
conditioner.
• Check whether the outdoor unit is designed for cooling only. In this case,
warm air does not come out although you select the Heat mode.
• Check whether the remote control is designed only for cooling only. Use a
remote control that supports both cooling and heating.
The fan speed does
not change.
• Check whether the Auto or Dry mode is running. In these modes, the air
conditioner controls the fan speed automatically, and you cannot change
the fan speed.

• Make sure that nothing is blocking the remote control sensor.
• Check whether any strong lighting sources are near the air conditioner.
Strong light which comes from fluorescent bulbs or neon signs may
interfere with the remote control.
The wired remote
control does not
operate.
• Check whether the indicator is displayed at the bottom right of the
remote control display. In this case, turn off both the air conditioner and the
auxiliary power switch, and then contact a service centre.
The air conditioner is
not turned on or off
immediately with
the wired remote
control.
• Check whether the wired remote control is set for group control. In this case,
the air conditioners connected to the wired remote control are turned on or
off sequentially. This operation takes up to 32 seconds.
The Timed on/off
function does not
operate.
• Check whether you pressed the (SET) button on the remote control after
setting the on/off time. Set the on/off time.
The indoor unit

Problem Solution
The air is not cool or
warm enough.
• In the Cool mode, cool air does not come out if the set temperature is higher
than the current temperature.
ࣙAR-EH0**, AR-EC0** remote control: Press the Temperature button
repeatedly until the set temperature (minimum: 18°C) is set to lower
than the current temperature.
ࣙAR-KH0** remote control: Press the Temperature button on the remote
control. Then rotate the Wheel until the set temperature (minimum:
18°C) is set to lower than the current temperature.
• In the Heat mode, warm air does not come out if the set temperature is
lower than the current temperature.
ࣙAR-EH0**, AR-EC0** remote control: Press the Temperature button
repeatedly until the set temperature (maximum: 30°C) is set to higher
than the current temperature.
ࣙAR-KH0** remote control: Press the Temperature button on the remote
control. Then rotate the Wheel until the set temperature (maximum:
30°C) is set to higher than the current temperature.
• Both cooling and heating do not operate in the Fan mode. Select the Cool,
Heat, Auto, or Dry mode.
• Check whether the air filter is blocked with dirt. A dusty filter may decrease
the cooling and heating efficiencies. Clean the air filter frequently.
• If a cover is on the outdoor unit or any obstacle is present near the outdoor
unit, remove them.
• Install the outdoor unit in a well-ventilated place. Avoiding places exposed
to direct sunlight or close to a heating appliance.
• Place a sunscreen over the outdoor unit to protect it from direct sunlight.
• If the indoor unit is installed in a place exposed to direct sunlight, pull the
curtains on the windows.
• Close the windows and doors to maximize the cooling and heating
efficiencies.
• If the Cool mode is stopped and then started immediately, cool air comes
out after about 3 minutes to protect the compressor of the outdoor unit.
• When the Heat mode is started, warm air does not come out immediately to
prevent cool air from coming out at the beginning.
• If the refrigerant pipe is too long, the cooling and heating efficiencies may
be decreased. Avoid exceeding the maximum pipe length.
