pollen, and odor. It makes you breathe better as if you were staying around waterfalls, ocean surf, rivers and
mountains.
2Way air outlet
There are two separate air outlets for cooling and heating. Having warmer air coming out from the bottom part of the
air outlet will spread the warm air evenly throughout the room. Stay cooler and warmer in every corner of your room.
Cost Efficient System
Your new air conditioner not only provides maximum cooling power in the summer, but can also be an efficient
heating method in the winter with the advanced“Heat Pump” system. This technology is up to 300% more efficient
than electrical heating, so you can further reduce its running cost. Now, meet year-round needs with one air
conditioner.

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 adjust the temperature and fan speed to maintain your fresh
environment.
• When the indoor temperature is too high, the powerful cool breeze is generated and when the indoor room
becomes cool enough, the soft breeze is generated.
Cool
Cool mode is frequently used and you can freely control the temperature, fan speed, and air flow direction in Cool
mode.
• When you select the Heat mode while the Cool mode is on, the Cool mode is cancelled.
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.
Fan
Fan mode provides you with a breeze just like a fan to make fresh environment for you.
Heat
In Heat mode, you can warm your room even in the fall and winter.
• The fan may not commence immediately to avoid generating a cold breeze.
• During the Heat mode, defrost operation may be performed to remove the frost formed on the outdoor unit.
(When the frost is removed by the defrost operation in Heat mode, steam is generated from the outdoor unit.)
• If you stop operating the air conditioner after heating operation, the fan will operate for some time to cool the
indoor unit.
• When you select the Cool mode while the Heat mode is on, the Heat mode is cancelled.
• When the outdoor temperature is low and humidity is high during the heat mode, the outdoor unit's
heating capacity may decrease due to the frost formed on the outdoor heat exchanger. The defrost
operation removes the frost formed on the heat exchanger of the outdoor unit for 5 ~ 12 minutes.
During the defrost operation, the indoor unit does not generate breeze in order to prevent cold breeze
blowing out.
 The interval between the defrost operation can decrease depending on the amount of the frost formed on the
outdoor unit.
 The interval between defrost operation can also decrease by humidity level with rain or snow.
