![](https://files.manualsfile.com/11984f1cc488880834538b8e0580a457/53_1690650002.png)
1. Air filter (Nano platinum filter)
• Clean every 2 weeks
• Remove dirt by a vacuum cleaner, or rinse with water.
• After washing with water, dry it well in shade.
What is “Nano platinum filter” ?
Nano platinum is a ceramic particle that includes a platinum nanoparticle. The particles are incorporated into the filter material, which results in providing semi-permanent antibacterial and deodorizing characteristics for the filter. Nano platinum surpasses the catechin (a bioflavonoid that is found in green tea) in performance. Nano platinum filter uses this compound not only to improve air quality but also to eliminate bacteria and viruses. This air filter has a semi-permanent lasting effect even after washing it with water.
2. Air cleaning filter (Anti-Allergy Enzyme Filter, option)
Back side of air filter
Every 3 months:
• Remove dirt by a vacuum cleaner.
When dirt cannot be removed by vacuum cleaning:
• Soak the filter and its frame in lukewarm water before rinsing it.
• After washing, dry it well in shade. Install all tabs of the air filter.
Every year:
• Replace it with a new air-cleaning filter for best performance.
• Parts Number MAC-408FT-E

WHEN YOU THINK THAT TROUBLE HAS OCCURRED
Symptom | Explanation & Checkpoints |
Indoor Unit | |
The unit cannot be operated. | • Is the breaker turned on? • Is the power supply plug connected? • Is the ON timer set? Page 6 |
The horizontal vane does not move. | • Are the horizontal vane and the vertical vane installed correctly? • Is the fan guard deformed? |
The unit cannot be operated for about 3 minutes when restarted. | • This protects the unit according to instructions from the microprocessor. Please wait. |
Mist is discharged from the air outlet of the indoor unit. | • The cool air from the unit rapidly cools moisture in the air inside the room, and it turns into mist. |
The swing operation of the HORIZONTAL VANE is suspended for a while, then restarted. | • This is for the swing operation of the HORIZONTAL VANE to be performed normally. |
The air flow direction changes during operation. The direction of the horizontal vane cannot be adjusted with the remote controller. | • When the unit is operated in COOL or DRY mode, if the operation continues with air blowing down for 0.5 to 1 hour, the direction of the air flow is automatically set to upward position to prevent water from condensing and dripping. |
The unit starts operation by itself when the main power is turned on, though it isn’t operated with the remote controller. | • These models are equipped with an auto restart function. When the main power is turned off without stopping the unit with the remote controller and is turned on again, the unit starts operation automatically in the same mode as the one set with the remote controller just before the shutoff of the main power. Refer to “Auto restart function”. Page 4 |
The indoor unit discolors over time. | • Although plastic turns yellow due to the influence of some factors such as ultraviolet light and temperature, this has no effect on the product functions. |
Outdoor Unit | |
The fan of the outdoor unit does not rotate even though the compressor is running. Even if the fan starts to rotate, it stops soon. | • When the outside temperature is low during cooling operation, the fan operates intermittently to maintain sufficient cooling capacity |
Water leaks from the outdoor unit. | • During COOL and DRY operations, pipe or pipe connecting sections are cooled and this causes water to condense. |
Remote controller | |
The display on the remote controller does not appear or it is dim. The indoor unit does not respond to the remote control signal. | • Are the batteries exhausted? Page 3 • Is the polarity (+, -) of the batteries correct? Page 3 • Are any buttons on the remote controller of other electric appliances being pressed? |
Does not cool | |
The room cannot be cooled sufficiently. | • Is the temperature setting appropriate? Page 4 • Is the fan setting appropriate? Please change fan speed to High or Super High. Page 5 • Are the filters clean? Page 7 • Is the fan or heat exchanger of the indoor unit clean? Page 7 • Are there any obstacles blocking the air inlet or outlet of the indoor or outdoor unit? • Is a window or door open? • When a ventilation fan or a gas cooker is used in a room, the cooling load increases, resulting in an insufficient cooling effect. • When the outside temperature is high, the cooling effect may not be sufficient. • It may take a certain time to reach the setting temperature or may not reach that depending on the size of the room, the ambient temperature, and the like. |
Airflow | |
The air from the indoor unit smells strange. | • Are the filters clean? Page 7 • Is the fan or heat exchanger of the indoor unit clean? Page 7 • The unit may suck in an odor adhering to the wall, carpet, furniture, cloth, etc. and blow it out with the air. |
Sound | |
Cracking sound is heard. | • This sound is generated by the expansion/ contraction of the front panel, etc. due to change in temperature. |
“Burbling” sound is heard. | • This sound is heard when the outside air is absorbed from the drain hose by turning on the range hood or the ventilation fan, making water flowing in the drain hose to spout out. This sound is also heard when the outside air blows into the drain hose in case the outside wind is strong. |
Mechanical sound is heard from the indoor unit. | • This is the switching sound in turning on/off the fan or the compressor. |
The sound of water flowing is heard. | • This is the sound of refrigerant or condensed water flowing in the unit. |
Hissing sound is sometimes heard. | • This is the sound when the flow of refrigerant inside the unit is switched. |
In the following cases, stop using the air conditioner and consult your dealer.
• When water leaks or drips from the indoor unit.
• When the upper operation indicator lamp blinks. Except for when the lamp of a multi-unit blinks while the unit is on standby.
• When the breaker trips frequently.
• The remote control signal is not received in a room where an electronic ON/ OFF type fluorescent lamp (inverter-type fluorescent lamp, etc.) is used.
• Operation of the air conditioner interferes with radio or TV reception. An amplifier may be required for the affected device.
• When an abnormal sound is heard.
• When any refrigerant leakage is found.
WHEN THE AIR CONDITIONER IS NOT GOING TO BE USED FOR A LONG TIME
1. Operate by COOL mode with the highest temperature set or FAN mode for 3 to 4 hours. Page 4
• This dries the inside of the unit.
• Moisture in the air conditioner contributes to growth of fungi, such as mold.
2. Press to stop the operation
3. Turn off the breaker and/or disconnect the power supply plug.
4. Remove all batteries from the remote controller
When using the air conditioner again:
1. Clean the air filter. Page 7flowflow
2. Check that the air inlet and outlet of the indoor and outdoor units are not blocked.
3. Check that the earth is connected correctly.
4. Refer to the “PREPARATION BEFORE OPERATION”, and follow the instructions. Page 3
INSTALLATION PLACE AND ELECTRICAL WORK
Installation place
Avoid installing the air conditioner in the following places.
• Where there is much machine oil.
• Salty places such as the seaside.
• Where sulfide gas is generated such as hot spring, sewage, and wastewater.
• Where oil is splashed or where the area is filled with oily smoke (such as cooking areas and factories, in which the properties of plastic could be changed and damaged).
• Where there is high-frequency or wireless equipment.
• Where the air from the outdoor unit air outlet is blocked.
• Where the operation sound or air from the outdoor unit bothers the house next door.
