7 Operating Instructions
7.1 General Safety Considerations during Use
Danger of injury and physical damage!
- Do not let children play with the air
conditioning unit.
The unit is not designed for use by children.
- Do not connect the equipment whilst using
insecticides or pesticides. These could settle
in the unit and harm the health of persons
with allergies to specific chemical
substances.
- Avoid prolonged direct exposure to cooled air
or extreme temperatures in the room. This
could be a health hazard.
- Do not insert your fingers or other objects in
the air inlets and outlets, or between the unit
louvres whilst the unit is operating. The high
speed of the fan can cause injuries.
Danger of injury and physical damage!
Danger of fire and explosion.
- Do not place any heat source with a
naked flame in the equipment airflow. Do not
use sprays or other flammable gases near
the air conditioning equipment. This could
cause a fire.
- In the event that any irregularity is detected
(such as a burning smell), unplug the unit
from the mains immediately and contact the
distributor/installer in order to proceed
properly.
If you continue to use the unit under these
irregular conditions, it could be
irrepairably damaged and cause short
circuiting or fire.
- Phone a specialist technician and ensure that
preventive measures are implemented to
avoid refrigerant gas leaks. Leaking
refrigerant of a certain density can cause
oxygen deficiency.
Danger!
Danger of electric shock.
Do not handle the equipment with wet or moist
hands.
Warning
!
Danger of breakdowns or malfunction.
- Do not place any object on or near to the
outdoor unit.

7.6 Defrosting
When the outdoor air temperature is very low and the
humidity level is very high, the heat exchanger of the
outdoor unit will frost causing a negative impact on the
efficiency of the heating performance. In these cases,
the unit automatically triggers a defrosting function
which causes the heating operation to stop for 5 to 10
minutes:
- The fans of the Indoor and the Oudoor unit are
stopped.
- During defrost, the unit might generate some steam.
This is caused by fast defrosting and it does not
mean a performance failure.
- Once the unit completes the defrosting process, it
resumes the heating operation.
7.7 Setting the Direction of the Airflow
The direction of the airflow can be set in vertical and
horizontal directions.
Danger of injury and physical damage!

Note!
If the louvre does not work correctly, stop the
unit for one minute and restart it carrying out
the settings required with the remote controller.
Note!
In heating mode it is recommendable to direct
the louvres vertically.
Note!
