Installation procedure:
1) Remove the sticker from the front panel.
2) Put the unit into the installation hole.
When installing the unit, it should be slanted
down to the back to avoid the enlargement of
noise or vibration. (Slant between 6-10mm.)
(Shown at right figure.)
The installation place should be strong enough
to avoid the enlargement of noise or vibration.
3) Fill up sews in the cabinet with sponge or foam.
Installation assistance:
Use iron support
The installation hole should be strong enough to
support the air conditioner. If it cannot, iron sup-
port has to be used outdoors.

Air conditioner operation
Operating your air conditioner properly helps you to obtain the best possible results.
This section explains proper air conditioner operation.
IMPORTANT:
* If you turn the air conditioner off, wait at least 3 minutes before turning it back on. This
prevents the air conditioner from blowing a fuse or tripping a circuit breaker.
* Do not try to operate your air conditioner in the cooling mode when outside temperature is
below 19
ć . The inside evaporator coil will freeze up and the air conditioner will not
operate properly.
1.) Set the UNIT CONTROL to the desired setting. When the air conditioner is operating at
LOW COOL,MED COOL, or HIGH COOL, the fan circulates air continuously.
HIGH COOL - for maximum cooling
MED COOL - for normal cooling
LOW COOL - for sleeping comfort
FAN ONLY
when the FAN setting is selected, the fan
will run continuously to move air, but the
air will not be cooled.
Your air conditioner has one of
these controls:

2.) Turn the THERMOSTAT Control to a mid-setting.
Adjust the air conditioner's performance by turning the THERMOSTAT Control clockwise
( ) for maximum cooling. For less cooling, turn the THERMOSTAT Control anti-
clockwise ( ). Experiment and find the setting that suits you best. Recommended setting

CHANGING AIR DIRECTION
The louvers in the top of the front panel allow you to control the direction of the cooled air.
Use the tabs to direct the air right or left (some models). Rotate the whole catridge to direct air
up, down or straight ahead.

NORMAL OPERATING SOUNDS
When your air conditioner is operating normally , you may hear sounds such as:
* Droplets of water hitting the condenser , causing a "pinging" or "clicking" sound. The water
droplets help cool the condenser.
* Air movement from the fan.
* Clicks from the thermostat cycle.
* Vibrations or noise due to poor wall or window construction.
* A high-pitched hum or pulsating noise caused by the modern high-efficiency compressor
cycling on and off.

Operation tips
Operation for comfort and economy
Do not let sunshine enter the
room directly when the air
conditioner is in operation.
Keep blind or curtains closed,
in the room.
Make sure that the doors and
windows are shut tightly. Avoid
opening doors and windows as
much as possible to keep the cool
Clean the air filter regularly.
Blockages in the air filter
reduce dehumidifying effects.
Clean at least once every two
weeks.
Ventilate the room occasionally.
Since windows are kept closed, it
is a good idea to open them and
ventilate the room now and then.
air in the room.
Do not overcool the room
temperature, this is not good for
health and waste electricity.
Adjust the vertical and
horizontal airflow direction to
ensure a uniform temperature

11
Caution
Do not use the air conditioner
for other purposes such as dry-
ing clothes, preserving foods,
keeping animals, or cultivating
vegetables.
Do not block the air intake and
outlet vents.
This causes lowered perfor-
mance and irregular operation.
Do not insert sticks or other ob-
jects into these vents as it is dan-
gerous to touch the electric com-
ponents and the fan.
Select the most appropriate
temperature.
Take care to adjust the tempera-
ture to suit the conditions.
Rooms occupied by infants,the
elderly, or the sick should be kept
at an appropriate temperature.
Do not use heating apparatuses
in the air conditioner’s plastic
parts melt if exposed to exces-
sive heat.
Avoid exposing the body directly
to a continuous unidirectional air
flow for long periods.
This is not reconmmended for
health reason.
Always wait at least 3 minutes before switching the
air condition on again after you have switched it off
during cooling.

Fault phenomenon Trouble-shooting
Air conditioner does not
operate at all.
*Is power fail?
*Is plug out?
*Is power fuse or switch off?
*Is voltage higher than 253V or lower than 207V?
*Is air inlet or outlet blocking?
*Is there any other heat source in room?
*Are air filters dirty very much?
*Is indoor fan speed set at LOW?
*While in COOL mode operation, sometimes there
is foggy air flowing out of indoor unit, this is be-
cause that room humid air has been cooling rapid.
*For a noise that sounds like water flowing:
This is the sound of freon flowing inside the air con-
ditioner unit.
*For a noise that sound like a shower:
This is the sound of the dehumidifying water being
processed inside the air conditioner unit.
*Condensation occurs when the airflow from the air
conditioner cools the warm room air.
*This is to protect the mechanism.
*Wait about three minutes and operation will begin.
Cool efficiency is not
good.
