ADDITIONAL NOTES ON OPERATION
OPERATING TEMPERATURE RANGE •The built-in protective
device may prevent the
unit from operating when
used out of this range.
•Condensation may form
on the air outlet if the
unit operates continu-
ously in the COOL or
DRY mode when humid-
ity is over 80 percent.
D.B. = Dry-bulb W.B. = Wet-bulb
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 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 and heating operation.
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.
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 ABOUT PLASMACLUSTER OPERATION
AIR CLEAN OPERATION
Cluster ions released into the air will reduce airborne mold fungus.
ION BALANCE OPERATION
It is said that plenty of negative ions exist in places such as waterfalls or waterside in
natural environment. In this operation mode, negative ions will be released in an
increased rate, in order to bring the room air close to this condition.
Please refer to page 11 for operation.
The ionizer inside the air conditioner will release cluster ions, which are collective
mass of positive and negative ions, into the room.
The cluster ions reduce airborne mold fungus.

BEFORE CALLING FOR SERVICE
The following conditions do not denote equipment malfunctions
UNIT DOES NOT OPERATE
The unit will not operate if it is turned on
immediately after it is turned off. The unit will not
operate immediately after the mode is changed.
This is to protect the internal mechanisms. Wait 3
minutes before operating the unit.
UNIT DOES NOT SEND OUT WARM AIR
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.
If the unit appears to be malfunctioning, check the following points before calling
for service.
IF THE UNIT FAILS TO COOL (OR HEAT) THE ROOM EFFECTIVELY
Check the filters. If dirty,
clean them. Check the outdoor unit to
make sure nothing is blocking
the air inlet or outlet.
Check the thermostat is
proper setting.
Make sure windows and
doors are closed tightly. A large number of people in
the room can prevent the unit
from achieving the desired
temperature.
Check whether any heat-
generating appliances are
operating in the room.
ODORS
Carpet and furniture odors that entered into the
unit and the air conditioner's inner component
odors at the early stage of installation may be
sent out from the unit.
SWISHING NOISE
The soft, swishing noise is the sound of
the refrigerant flowing inside the unit.
WATER VAPOUR
•In the COOL and DRY operation, wa-
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.
•In the HEAT operation, water vapour
may flow out of the outdoor unit dur-
ing de-icing.
Please call for service when OPERATION Lamp and TIMER Lamp on the indicator panel blink.
ODOR EMITTED FROM THE
PLASMACLASTER AIR OUTLET
This is the smell of ozone generated
from the ionizer. Density of the ozone is
very little, having no adverse effect over
your health. The ozone released into
the air will decompose soon, and its den-
sity in the room will not increase.
IF THE UNIT FAILS TO OPERATE
•Check to see if the circuit breaker has tripped or the fuse has blown.
•Check if the louvre unit is properly installed. All lamps on the indicator panel will blink when
the louvre unit is not properly installed.
A LOW BUZZ NOISE EMITTED
This is a sound emitted when the unit is generating
ion clusters.
