Checking before use
Using indoor unit
Make sure that curtain does not block the air inlet.
 It may decrease cooling performance by blocking air circulation.
In Cool mode, set the appropriate desired temperature.
 If the desired temperature is too low, it may be harmful for human body and power consumption will also increase. Set
the desired temperature about 5 °C lower than the outdoor temperature.
Use extra heating apparatus during heat mode.
 Heating performance of the air conditioner may decrease when the indoor•outdoor temperature drops. Therefore, use
extra heating apparatus. (Applicable model: AF55JSMASeries)
When cooling the room, use air conditioner and fan together to save energy.
 When the air conditioner is used with fan, cooling will be more effective and energy can be saved.
When the air conditioner is operating, close the doors and windows.
 When the air conditioner is used with doors and windows open, cooling/heating effect will decrease.
 If you use the air conditioner for over an hour, open the window to ventilate the air about once every hour.
Install the product away from sunlight or heating devices.
 Close the curtain when the sun shines.
 Do not use any heating devices during cooling operation. Cooling effect will decrease.
Storing the indoor unit
Dry the air conditioner thoroughly by operating Fan or Purity mode for 3 to 4 hours.
Stop the operation and disconnect the power plug.
• Do not move the product on your own. Pipe may get loose or damaged and cause refrigerant leakage.
CAUTION
Using outdoor unit
Take away any covers or barriers.
 It may cause product failure, and poor performance in cooling/heating by blocking air flow.

Basic operation
Basic operation is an operation mode that can be selected by pressing the Mode button.
Auto
In Auto mode, the air conditioner will automatically set theOperation(Cool/Heat Mode) and fan speed depending on the
room temperature detected by the room temperature sensor. (Heat mode is applicable to AF55JSMAmodel only.)
Cool
Cool mode is frequently used and you can freely control the temperature, fan speed, and air flow direction in cool mode.
Dry
The air conditioner in Dry mode acts like a dehumidifier by removing moisture from the indoor air. The Dry mode will provide
you with fresh air even on a rainy day.
 Outdoor unit will repeatedly and automatically turn on/off for maximum dehumidification according to the temperature
difference of the current and desired temperature.
Fan
Fan mode can be selected to ventilate your room. Fan mode will be helpful to refresh the stale air in your room.
 If you are not going to use the air conditioner for a while, we recommend to operate the Fan mode for 3~4 hours to dry
the internal part of the air conditioner..
Heat (Applicable model: AF55JSMA)
In Heat mode, the indoor temperature, fan speed, and air flow direction can be adjusted at your desire to warm your indoor.
 Indoor unit may not start the operation immediately until indoor heat exchanger is warmed up to a certain temperature
(approximately 5 minutes according to current indoor temperature) to prevent generating a cold breeze.
 Defrost display: When removing frost at the outdoor unit in the Heat mode, (Defrost) icon will be displayed on the indoor
unit display and it will be turned off after removing the frost.
(When removing the frost during the defrost operation in Heat mode, steam may be generated and the warm breeze
may not come out from the indoor unit.)
• When the outdoor temperature is low and humidity is high, frost may form on outdoor unit's heat exchanger
and may decrease the heating performance so the Defrost operation will operate for 5 ~ 12 minutes to get rid of
the frost on the outdoor unit heat exchanger. Indoor unit will be off during Defrost operation is on since cold air
may come out from it.
- Intervals between Defrost operation cycle may vary depending on the amount of frost on the outdoor unit.
- In snowy or rainy days, Defrost operation cycle may be shorter due to humidity.
- You cannot control the air conditioner with the remote controller while Defrost operation is on. Try to control
the air conditioner after Defrost operation is complete.
