Operating Recommendations
Here are a few recommendations that you should follow when operating your air conditioner.
Topic Recommendation
The heat pump function of the air conditioner absorbs heat from outside air and brings
it indoors. As the temperature of the outside air drops, the heating performance of air
conditioner will decrease. If you find that the room is not warm enough, using an
additional heating appliance is recommended.
Heating
performances
When outside temperature is low but humidity is high,
frost may form on the outdoor unit at HEAT mode.
If this happens:
◆ The heating operation stops.
◆ The defrost mode will be triggered automatically for about 10 minutes.
◆ The steam produced on the outdoor unit in the defrost mode is safe.
No intervention is required ; after about 10 minutes, the air conditioner operates
again normally.
Frost
If both indoor and outdoor temperatures are high and the air conditioner is running
at HEAT mode, the outdoor unit’s fan and compressor may stop at times.
This is normal ; simply wait until the air conditioner switches on again.
High indoor
and outdoor
temperatures
If a power failure occurs while the air conditioner is operating, the unit will be
switched off. When the power returns, the air conditioner starts up again
automatically.
Power failure
Temperature and Humidity Ranges
The following table indicates the temperature and humidity ranges, within which the
air conditioner can be used.
If the air conditioner is used at... Then...
The automatic protection feature may be triggered and the air
conditioner stopped.
High temperature
A water leakage or some other malfunction may happen if
the heat exchanger freezes.
Low temperature
Water may condense on and drip from the surface of the
indoor unit if it is used for a long periods.
High humidity levels
❇ The standardized temperature for heating is 7°C. If the outdoor
temperature drops to 0°C or below, the heating capacity can be
reduced depending on the temperature condition.
If the cooling operation is used at over 32°C(indoor temperature),
it does not cool at its full capacity.
