Features of your new air conditioner
Cool Summer Offer
On those hot sweltering summer days and long restless nights, there is no better escape from the heat than the cool
comforts of home. Your new air conditioner brings an end to exhausting hot summer days and lets you rest. This summer,
beat the heat with your own air conditioner.
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.
Flexible installation
Duct type air conditioner is designed to be slimmer and offers different solutions for any shape room allowing for specific
air flow requirements. Also, the air intake can be set up on either the bottom or rear of the unit, so there is more flexibility in
installation.

Using your air conditioner
Tips on using your air conditioner
Here are some tips that you would follow when using your air conditioner.
TOPIC RECOMMENDATION
Cooling
• If current outside temperatures are much higher than the selected indoor temperature,
it may take time to bring the inner temperature to the desired coolness.
• Avoid drastically turning down the temperature. Energy is wasted and the room does
not cool faster.
Heating
• Since the air conditioner heats the room by taking heat energy from outdoor air, the
heating capacity may decrease when outdoor temperatures are extremely low. If you
feel the air conditioner insufficiently heats, using an additional heating appliance in
combination with the air conditioner is recommended.
Frost & De-ice
• When the air conditioner runs in Heat mode, due to temperature difference between
the unit and the outside air, frost will form.
• If this happens:
- The air conditioner stops heating.
- The air conditioner will operate automatically in De-ice mode for 10 minutes.
- The steam produced on the outdoor unit in De-ice mode is safe.
• No intervention is required; after about 10 minutes, the air conditioner operates again
normally.
• The unit will not operate when it starts to de-ice.
NOTE
Fan • Fan may not operate for about 3~5 minutes at the beginning to prevent any cold blasts
while the air conditioner is warming up.
High indoor/outdoor
temperatures
• If both indoor and outdoor temperatures are high and the air conditioner is running in
Heat mode, the outdoor unit’s fan and compressor may stop at times. This is normal;
wait until the air conditioner turns on again.
Power failure
• If a power failure occurs during the operation of the air conditioner, the operating
immediately stops and unit will be off. When power returns, the air conditioner will run
automatically.
Protection mechanism
• If the air conditioner has just been turned on after operation stops or being plugged
in, cool/warm air does not come out for 3 minutes to protect the compressor of the
outdoor unit.
