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 5 to
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 & Defrost
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.

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) then,
it does not cool at its full capacity.
