13. Operation Control 13.1 Basic Function Inverter control, which equipped with a microcomputer in determining the most suitable operating mode as time passes, automatically adjusts output power for maximum comfort always. In order to achieve the suitable operating mode, the microcomputer maintains the set temperature by measuring the temperature of the environment and performing temperature shifting.
Page 66
13.1.5 Automatic Operation This mode can be set using remote control and the operation is decided by remote control setting temperature, remote control operation mode and indoor intake air temperature. During operation mode judgment, indoor fan motor (with speed of Lo-) is running for 30 seconds to detect the indoor intake air temperature.
