● OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS ●
EN-1
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Do not turn the breaker OFF except the case of burning
smell, or when performing maintenance or inspection.
• The refrigerant leakage cannot be detected, and this may
cause a re.
Do not install the unit in a place where smoke, gas, or
chemicals may ll.
• Do not use any gas equipment for propane, butane or
methane, sprays such as bug killer, and paint etc., near by
the indoor unit.
• The refrigerant sensor reacts to it and displays an error. This
may cause the unit not to operate.
(Procedure in case of refrigerant leakage)
If the refrigerant leaks, extinguish a re such as a heater,
and ventilate the room adequately by opening the window.
• Then contact your dealer.
• The indoor unit spreads the refrigerant by FAN mode to
prevent a re. Do not turn the breaker OFF during this situ-
ation.
Do not insert your nger, a stick, or other objects into the
air inlet or outlet.
• This may cause injury, since the fan inside rotates at high
speeds during operation.
In case of an abnormal condition (such as a burning smell),
stop the air conditioner and disconnect the power plug or
turn the breaker OFF.
• A continued operation in the abnormal state may cause a
malfunction, re, or electric shock. In this case, consult your
dealer.
When the air conditioner does not cool or heat, there is a
possibility of refrigerant leakage. If any refrigerant leakage
is found, ventilate the room well and consult your dealer
immediately. Do not turn the breaker OFF. If a repair in-
volves recharging the unit with refrigerant, ask the service
technician for details.
• The refrigerant used in the air conditioner is not harmful.
Normally, it does not leak. However, if refrigerant leaks and
comes in contact with re or heating part of such a fan heater,
kerosene heater, or cooking stove, it will create harmful gas
and there is risk of re.
The user should never attempt to wash the inside of the
indoor unit. Should the inside of the unit require cleaning,
contact your dealer.
• Unsuitable detergent may cause damage to plastic material
inside the unit, which may result in water leakage. Should
detergent come in contact with electrical parts or the motor,
it will result in a malfunction, smoke, or re.
• The appliance shall be stored in a room without continuously
operating ignition sources (for example: open ames, an
operating gas appliance or an operating electric heater).
• Be aware that refrigerants may not contain an odour.
• Do not use means to accelerate the defrosting process or
to clean the appliance, other than those recommended by
the manufacturer.
• Do not pierce or burn.

may cause overheating or re.
Do not charge or disassemble the batteries, and do not
throw them into a re.
• This may cause the batteries to leak, or cause a re or
explosion.
Do not operate the unit for more than 4 hours at high hu-
midity (80% RH or more) and/or with windows or outside
door left open.
• This may cause the water condensation in the air conditioner,
which may drip down, wetting or damaging the furniture.
• The water condensation in the air conditioner may contribute
to growth of fungi, such as mold.
Do not use the unit for special purposes, such as storing
food, raising animals, growing plants, or preserving preci-
sion devices or art objects.
• This may cause deterioration of quality, or harm to animals
and plants.
Do not expose combustion appliances to direct airow.

Symptom Explanation & Check points
Indoor Unit
The unit cannot be operated. • Is the breaker turned on?
• Is the power supply plug connected?
• Is the ON timer set?
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 HORIZON-
TAL VANE to be performed normally.
The air ow direction changes
during operation.
The direction of the horizontal
vane/multi-ow vane cannot
be adjusted with the remote
controller.
• In the heating operation, if the air ow tem-
perature is too low or when defrosting is being
done, the horizontal vane is automatically set
to vertical position. The multi-ow vane is set to
the closed position.
• When the air conditioner is operated in COOL
or DRY mode, if the operation continues with air
blowing horizontally for 1 hour, the direction of
the air ow is automatically set to position (1)
to prevent condensed water from dropping. The
multi-ow vane is set to the closed position.
• The horizontal vane and the multi-ow vane
automatically moves in certain intervals to
determine its position, and then it returns to the
set position.
The operation is stopped for
about 10 minutes in the heating
operation.
• Defrosting of the outdoor unit is being done.
Since this is completed in max.10 minutes,
please wait. (When the outside temperature is
too low and humidity is too high, frost is formed.)
The unit starts operation by
itself when the main power is
turned on, though it isn’t oper-
ated with the remote controller.
• These models are equipped with an auto
restart function. When the main power is
turned o 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 control-
ler just before the shuto of the main power.
Refer to “Auto restart function”. Page 8
The multi-ow vane opens and
closes automatically.
• The multi-ow vane is automatically controlled
by a microcomputer according to the air ow
temperature and operation time of the air con-
ditioner.
The indoor unit which is not
operating becomes warm and a
sound, similar to water owing,
is heard from the unit.
• A small amount of refrigerant continues to ow
into the indoor unit even though it is not operat-
ing.
The indoor unit discolors over
time.
• Although plastic turns yellow due to the inuence
of some factors such as ultraviolet light and
temperature, this has no eect on the product
functions.
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 4
• Is the polarity (+, -) of the batteries correct?

WHEN YOU THINK THAT TROUBLE HAS OCCURRED
Symptom Explanation & Check points
Does not cool or heat
The room cannot be cooled or
heated suciently.
• Is the temperature setting appropriate?
Page 5
• Is the fan setting appropriate? Please change
fan speed to High or Super High. Page 6
• Is the air outlet selection is set to 1 FLOW? Set
it to 2 FLOW.
Page 6
• Is the lter clean? Page 10
• Is the fan or heat exchanger of the indoor unit
clean?
• Are there any obstacles blocking the air inlet or
outlet of the indoor or outdoor unit?
• Is a window or door open?
• 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.
The room cannot be cooled
suciently.
• When a ventilation fan or a gas cooker is used
in a room, the cooling load increases, resulting
in an insucient cooling eect.
• When the outside temperature is high, the
cooling eect may not be sucient.
The room cannot be heated
suciently.
• When the outside temperature is low, the heat-
ing eect may not be sucient.
Air does not blow out soon in
the heating operation.
• Please wait as the unit is preparing to blow out
warm air.
Airow
The air from the indoor unit
smells strange.
• Is the lter clean? Page 10
• Is the fan or heat exchanger of the indoor unit
clean?
• 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 panel, etc. due to change in
temperature.
The sound as burbling 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
owing 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/o the
fan or the compressor.
The sound of water owing is
heard.
• This is the sound of refrigerant or condensed
water owing in the unit.
Hissing sound is sometimes
heard.
• This is the sound when the ow of refrigerant
inside the unit is switched.
The sound of motor and swirling
sound is heard from the indoor
unit.
• This is the sound of water condensed during
COOL/DRY operation being drained from the
indoor unit.
• Sound of water draining may also be heard from
indoor units which are not operating. (The sound
will stop automatically. Please wait.)
Timer
Weekly timer does not operate
according to settings.
• Is the ON/OFF timer set? Page 7
• Transmit the setting information of the weekly
timer to the indoor unit again. When the informa-
tion is successfully received, a long beep will
sound from the indoor unit. If information fails to
be received, 3 short beeps will be heard. Ensure
information is successfully received. Page 9
• When a power failure occurs and the main
power turns o, the indoor unit built-in clock will
be incorrect. As a result, the weekly timer may
not work normally.
Be sure to place the remote controller where
the signal can be received by the indoor unit.

INSTALLATION PLACE AND
ELECTRICAL WORK
WHEN THE AIR CONDITIONER IS NOT
GOING TO BE USED FOR A LONG TIME
Installation place
Avoid installing the air conditioner in the following places.
• Where there is much machine oil.
• Salty places such as the seaside.
• Where sulde gas is generated such as hot spring, sewage, waste water.
• Where oil is splashed or where the area is lled with oily smoke (such as cook-
ing 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.
• Do not install the indoor unit at a place higher than 150 mm.
• Do not operate the air conditioner during interior construction and nishing
work, or while waxing the oor. Before operating the air conditioner, ventilate
the room well after such work is performed. Otherwise, it may cause volatile
elements to adhere inside the air conditioner, resulting in water leakage or
scattering of dew.
Electrical work
• Provide an exclusive circuit for the power supply of the air conditioner.
• Be sure to observe the breaker capacity.
If you have any questions, consult your dealer.
wall, etc.
For the optimum eciency
and to extend the life time of
using, the outdoor unit should
be installed in a well-ventilated
dry place.
3 m or
more
The installation location of the outdoor unit should be at
least 3 m away from the antennas for TV sets, radios,
etc. In areas where the reception is weak, provide
greater space between the outdoor unit and the antenna
of the aected device if operation of the air conditioner
interferes with radio or TV reception.
