IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
WARNINGS
• Do not pull or deform the power supply cord.
Pulling and misuse of the power supply cord
can result in damage to the unit and cause
electrical shock.
• Be careful not to expose your body directly to
the outlet air for a long time. It may affect your
physical conditions.
• When using the air conditioner for infants,
children, elderly, bedridden, or disabled people
make sure the room temperature is suitable for
those in the room.
• Never insert objects into the unit. Inserting
objects can result in injury due to the high
speed rotation of internal fans.
• Ground the air conditioner without fail. Do not
connect the grounding wire to gas pipe, water
pipe, lightning rod or telephone grounding
wire. Incomplete grounding may cause electric
shock.
• If anything is abnormal with the air conditioner
(ex. a burning smell), stop the operation
immediately and turn the circuit breaker OFF.
• The appliance shall be installed in accordance
with national wiring regulations. Improper
cable connection can cause the power supply
cord, plug and the electrical outlet to overheat
and cause re.
• If the supply cord is damaged, it must be
replaced by the manufacturer or its service
agent or a similarly qualied person in order
to avoid a hazard. Use only the manufacture-
specied power cord for replacement.
• Do not splash or pour water directly on the
unit. Water can cause electrical shock or
equipment damage.
• Do not attempt to install/remove/repair the unit
by yourself. Incorrect work will cause electric
shock, water leak, re etc. Consult your dealer
or other qualied service personnel for the
installation/removal/repair of the unit.
CAUTIONS
• Open a window or door periodically to
ventilate the room, especially when using gas
appliances. Insufcient ventilation may cause
oxygen shortage.
• Do not operate the buttons with wet hand. It
may cause electric shock.
• For safety, turn the circuit breaker off when not
using the unit for an extended period of time.
• Check the outdoor unit mounting rack
periodically for wear and to make sure it is
rmly in place.
• Do not put anything on the outdoor unit nor
step on it. The object or the person may fall
down or drop, causing injury.
• This 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.
• Do not place a vessel with water on the unit.
If water penetrates into the unit, electrical
insulations may deteriorate and cause electric
shock.
• Do not block the air inlets nor outlets of the
unit. It may cause insufcient performance or
troubles.
• Be 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.
• This appliance is not intended for use by
young children or inrm persons without
supervision. Young children should be
supervised to ensure that they do not play with
the appliance.
• Make sure to connect the air conditioner to
power supply of the rated voltage and fre-
quency. Use of a power supply with improper
voltage and frequency can result in equipment
damage and possible re.
• Do not install the unit in a place where inam-
mable gas may leak. It may cause re.
Install the unit in a place with minimal dust,
fumes and moisture in the air.
• Arrange the drain hose to ensure smooth
drainage. Insufcient drainage may cause wet-
ting of the room, furniture etc.
• Make sure a leak breaker or a circuit breaker
is installed, depending on the installation loca-
tion, to avoid electrical shock.

TIPS ON SAVING ENERGY
Below are some simple ways to save energy
when you use your air conditioner.
Set the proper temperature
• Setting the temperature lower than neces-
sary 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
operation.
Keep lter clean to ensure the most ef-
cient operation
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.

Reinstall the lters and close
the open panel.
MAINTENANCE
CLEANING THE UNIT AND THE RE-
MOTE CONTROL
• Wipe them with a soft cloth.
• Do not directly splash or pour water on them.
It can cause electrical shock or equipment
damage.
• Do not use hot water, thinner, abrasive pow-
ders or strong solvents.
MAINTENANCE AFTER AIR
CONDITIONER SEASON
1
Operate the unit in the SELF CLEAN
operation to thoroughly dry inside
the unit.
2Stop the operation and unplug the unit. Turn off the circuit breaker, if you have
one exclusively for the air conditioner.
3
Clean the lters, then reinstall them.
MAINTENANCE BEFORE AIR
CONDITIONER SEASON
1
Make sure that the air lters are not
dirty.
2
Make sure that nothing obstructs
the air inlet or outlet.

Check the following points before calling for
service.
The unit does not operate
• Check if the circuit breaker has tripped or the
fuse has blown.
The unit does not cool effectively
• Check the lters. 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.
The unit does not receive the remote
control signal
• Check whether the remote control batteries
have become old and weak.
• Try to send the signal again with the remote
control pointed properly towards the unit’s
signal receiver window.
• Check whether the remote control batteries
are installed properly.
Please call for service when OPERATION
lamp and TIMER lamp on the unit blink.
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 im-
mediately after it is turned off. The unit will
not operate immediately after the mode is
changed. This is to protect the unit. Wait 3 min-
utes before operating the unit.
ODORS
Carpet and furniture odors that entered into the
unit may be sent out from the unit.
CRACKING NOISE
This sound is generated by the friction of the
unit expanding or connecting due to a tempera-
ture change.
A LOW BUZZING NOISE
This is a sound of the unit generating Plasma-
cluster ions.
SWISHING NOISE
The soft, swishing noise is the sound of the
refrigerant owing inside the unit.
MIST SEEN AT INDOOR AIR OUTLET
In cooling operation, this is caused by the dif-
ference between the room air temperature and
the air discharged.
THE OUTDOOR UNIT DOES NOT STOP
After stopping the operation, the outdoor unit
will rotate its' fan for about a minute to cool
down the unit.
ODOR EMITTED FROM THE
PLASMACLUSTER AIR OUTLET
This is the smell of ozone generated from
the Plasmacluster Ion generator. The ozone
concentration is very small, posing no adverse
effect on your health. The ozone discharged
into the air rapidly decomposes, and its density
in the room will not increase.
