PRECAUTIONS
WARNINGS FOR USE
1Donotpullordeformthepowersupplycord.Pullingandmisuseofthepowersupplycord
can result in damage to the unit and cause electrical shock.
2Be careful not to expose your body directly to the outlet air for a long time. It may affect
your physical conditions.
3Whenusingtheairconditionerforinfants,children,elderly,bedridden,ordisabledpeople
make sure the room temperature is suitable for those in the room.
4Never insert objects into the unit. Inserting objects can result in injury due to the high
speed rotation of internal fans.
5Ground the air conditioner without fail. Do not connect the grounding wire to gas pipe,
waterpipe,lightningrodortelephonegroundingwire. Incompletegroundingmaycause
electric shock.
6If anything is abnormal with the air conditioner (ex. a burning smell), stop the operation
immediately and turn the circuit breaker OFF.
7Follow local rules and regulations for power supply cord cabling. Improper cable
connection can cause the power supply cord, plug and the electrical outlet to overheat
and cause fire.
8Useonlythemanufacture-specifiedpowercordforreplacement.Replacementshouldbe
performed by a qualified technician or a service person.
WARNINGS FOR INSTALLATION / REMOVAL / REPAIR
• Donotattempttoinstall/remove/repairtheunitbyyourself.Incorrectworkwillcauseelectric
shock, water leak, fire etc. Consult your dealer or other qualified service personnel for the
installation/removal/repair of the unit.
This equipment complies with the requirements of Directives 89/336/EEC and 73/23/
EEC as amended by 93/68/EEC.

PRECAUTIONS
CAUTIONS FOR USE
1Open a window or door periodically to ventilate the room, especially when using gas
appliances. Insufficient ventilation may cause oxygen shortage.
2Do not operate the buttons with wet hand. It may cause electric shock.
3For safety, turn the circuit breaker off when not using the unit for an extended period of
time.
4Check the outdoor unit mounting rack periodically for wear and to make sure it is firmly
in place.
5Do not put anything on the outdoor unit nor step on it. The object or the person may fall
down or drop, causing injury.
6This unit is designed for residential use. Do not use for other applications such as in a
kennel or greenhouse to raise animals or grow plants.
7Do not place a vessel with water on the unit. If water penetrates into the unit, electrical
insulations may deteriorate and cause electric shock.
8Do not block the air inlets nor outlets of the unit. It may cause insufficient performance
or troubles.
9Be sure to stop the operation and turn the circuit breaker off before performing any
maintenance or cleaning. A fan is rotating inside the unit and you may get injured.
10
Do not splash or pour water directly on the unit. Water can cause electrical shock or
equipment damage.
11
This appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons without
supervision.
Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
CAUTIONS FOR LOCATION / INSTALLATION
• Make sure to connect the air conditioner to power supply of the rated voltage and
frequency.
Use of a power supply with improper voltage and frequency can result in equipment
damage and possible fire.
• Do not install the unit in a place where inflammable gas may leak. It may cause fire.
Install the unit in a place with minimal dust, fumes and moisture in the air.
• Arrangethedrainhosetoensuresmoothdrainage. Insufficientdrainagemaycausewetting
of the room, furniture etc.
• Make sure a leak breaker or a circuit breaker is installed, depending on the installation
location, to avoid electrical shock.

ADDITIONAL NOTES ON OPERATION
OPERATING TEMPERATURE RANGE
• The built-in protective de-
vice may prevent the unit
from operating when used
out of this range.
• Condensation may form on
the air outlet if the unit op-
erates continuously in the
COOL or DRY mode when
humidity is over 80 percent.
D.B. = Dry-bulb W.B. = Wet-bulb
NOTES FOR MODELS AY-X08CR/AY-X10CR/AY-X13CR
PREHEATING FUNCTION
In the HEAT operation, the indoor fan may not start for two to five minutes after the unit is turned on to prevent
cold air from blowing out of the unit.
DE-ICING FUNCTION
• When ice forms on the heat exchanger in the outdoor unit during the HEAT operation, an automatic de-icer
provides heat for about 5 to 10 minutes to remove the ice. During de-icing, the inside and outside fans stop
operating.
• After de-icing is completed, the unit automatically resumes operation in the HEAT mode.
HEATING EFFICIENCY
• The unit employs a heat pump that draws heat from the outside air and releases it into the room. The outside
air temperature therefore greatly affects the heating efficiency.
• If the heating efficiency is reduced due to low outside temperatures, use an additional heater.
• It takes time to warm up and heat the entire room because of the forced air circulation system.
TIPS ON SAVING ENERGY
Below are some simple ways to save energy when you use your air conditioner.
SET THE CORRECT TEMPERATURE
• Setting the thermostat 1°C higher than the desired temperature in the COOL mode (and 2°C lower in the
HEAT mode with models AY-X08CR/AY-X10CR/AY-X13CR) will save approximately 10 percent in power
consumption.
• Setting the temperature lower than necessary during cooling operation will result in increased power
consumption.
BLOCK DIRECT SUNLIGHT AND PREVENT DRAFTS
• Blocking direct sunlight during cooling operation will reduce power consumption.
• Close the windows and doors during cooling opeation (and heating operation with models AY-X08CR/AY-
X10CR/AY-X13CR).
SET PROPER AIR FLOW DIRECTION TO OBTAIN THE BEST AIR
CIRCULATION
KEEP FILTER CLEAN TO ENSURE THE MOST EFFICIENT OPERATION
MAKE MOST OF THE TIMER OFF FUNCTION
DISCONNECT THE POWER CORD WHEN THE UNIT IS NOT USED FOR AN
EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME
• The indoor unit still consumes a small amount of power when it is not operating.
WHEN POWER FAILURE OCCURS
This air conditioner has a memory function to store settings when a power failure occurs.
After power recovery, the unit will automatically re-start in the same settings which were active before the power
failure, except for timer settings.
If the timers were set before a power failure, they will need to be re-set after power recovery.

(Models AY-X08CR/AY-X10CR/AY-X13CR)
The unit is preheating or de-icing.
CRACKING NOISE
Theunitmayproduceacrackingnoise.Thissound
is generated by the friction of the front panel and
other components expanding or connecting due to
a temperature change.

ter vapour can sometimes be seen at
the air outlet due to the difference
between the room air temperature and
the air discharged by the unit.
