1. USAGE POINTS
1.1 Working Principle
and Special
Functions for
Cooling
Principle:
An air conditioner (cooling) absorbs room heat and transmits and discharges
it outdoors, thereby decreasing the ambient indoor room temperature. Its
cooling capacity will decrease relative to an increase in the outdoor ambient
temperature.
Anti-freezing Function:
If the unit is running in COOL mode and at a low temperature, frost will form
on the heat exchanger; when the indoor heat exchanger temperature
decreases to below 0°C, the micro-computer of the indoor unit will stop
running the compressor to protect the unit.
1.2 Working Principle
and Special
Functions for
Heating
Principle:
1. An air conditioner (heating) absorbs heat from outdoors and transmits it
indoors, thereby increasing the indoor room temperature. Its heating
capacity will decrease relative to a decrease in the outdoor ambient
temperature.
2. If the outdoor temperature is lower than the room temperature, please
operate the system with other heating/ventilating equipment.
Defrosting:
1. When the outdoor temperature is low and there is high humidity, after the
unit runs for a while, frost will form on the outdoor unit and aect the
heating function. At this time, the auto-defrosting function will turn on, and
the heating operation will stop for 8-10 minutes.
2. While the auto-defrosting function is operating, both the fan motors of the
indoor and outdoor units will stop operating.
3. While the defrosting function is operating, the indoor indicator ashes and
the outdoor unit may emit vapor. This is due to the defrosting and is not a
malfunction.
4. After defrosting has nished, the heating process will resume
automatically.
Cold Draft Prevention:
In “HEAT” mode, the indoor blower will not act under the following 3 statuses,
until the heat exchanger reaches a certain temperature. This is to prevent
cool air from blowing. (Within 2 minutes)
1. When heating starts.
2. After auto-defrosting has nished.
3. Heating under low ambient temperature
Gentle Breeze:
Under the following conditions, the indoor unit may produce a gentle breeze,
and the guide louver may rotate to a predetermined position:
1. In “Heat” mode with the unit turned on, until the compressor starts
operationg
2. In “Heat” mode with the temperature at the set value and the compressor
has stopped running at about 1 minute.

4. CLEANING AND CARE
1. For safety, be sure to turn the air conditioner off and
also disconnect the power before cleaning. Or it may
cause an electric shock.
2. Never sprinkle water on the indoor unit and the outdoor
unit for cleaning because it can cause an electric shock.
3. Volatile liquid (e.g. thinner or gasoline) will damage the
air conditioner. (So wipe the units with a dry soft cloth
or a cloth slightly moistened with water or cleanser.)
4.1 Clean the Front Panel
(Make sure to remove the front panel before cleaning it.)
1. Remove the Front Panel
Open the front panel until it is nearly horizontal, grasp
the sections near the front panel arms on both sides,
and then remove the panel by pushing the arms
towards the inside while pulling the panel towards you.
(Fig. 4a, 4b)
2. Washing
Clean with a soft brush, water and neutral detergent,
and dry with a clean soft cloth. (Fig. 5)
3. Replace the Front Panel
Grasp the sections near the front panel arms on both
sides, and hold the front panel so that it is nearly
horizontal. Push the arm shafts towards the inside so
that they come into contact with the top of the
indentations on the right and left sides of the air
conditioner. Then push firmly until the arm shafts click
into place. (Fig. 6a)
4.2 Cleaning the Air Filters
(Recommended once every 3 months)
1. After removing the filter, some metal edges and the
fins are sharp and may cause injury if handled
improperly; be especially careful when cleaning
these parts.
2. The internal coil and other components of the
outdoor unit must be cleaned every year. Consult
your dealer or service center.
CAUTION

4. CLEANING AND CARE
4.2 Cleaning the Air Filters (Continued)
1. Remove the Air Filters
Pull out the panel at the angle of the bottom grooves on
the panel. Next, pull the airlter upward then downward
to remove it. (Fig. 7).
2. Cleaning
To clean dust adhering to the lters, either use a
vacuum cleaner, or wash them with warm water (water
with neutral detergent should be below 45°C) when the
lters are very dirty (e.g., oil-stained), and dry them in
the shade. (Fig. 8)
3. Install the Air Filters
Insert the top of the air lter, and then t the protrusions
on the bottom of the lter all the way into the hooks on
the unit.
Press the locations marked by the arrows and close the
front panel. (Fig. 9)
Since the air lter cannot remove harmful gases or
vapors nor ventilate the room, open doors or

ProblemSolution
An unusual odor is emitted from the outlet after
operation is started.
Clean the air lters (see page16). If the problem
persists, the unit requires servicing. Please contact
your authorized SANYO maintenance center.
Sounds of water owing can be heard during
operation.
Occasionally there is a swooshing or gurgling sound
when the air conditioner is started, stopped or when
the compressor has started or stopped running.
These sounds are due to refrigerant owing and are
not malfunctions.
Mist is emitted. When the indoor temperature and humidity are high,
sometimes this phenomeno n occurs. It is caused by
the room air being swiftly cooled down. After running
for a while, the indoor temperature and humidity will
decrease, and the mist will disappear.
A creaking noise can be heard when starting or
stopping the unit.
This is caused by the deformation of plastic due to
the change of temperature.
The unit will not operate. •Has the power been turned o?
•Is the power plug loose?
•Is the voltage too high or too low? (Please ask a
