Maintenance and service 17 Maintenance and service 17.1 Precautions for maintenance and service CAUTION: Pay attention to the fan! It is dangerous to inspect the unit while the fan is running. Be sure to turn off the main switch before executing any maintenance task. CAUTION Do NOT insert fingers, rods or other objects into the air inlet or outlet.
Maintenance and service 17.2.1 To clean the air filter When to clean the air filter: ▪ Rule of thumb: Clean every 6 months. If the air in the room is extremely contaminated, increase the cleaning frequency. ▪ Depending on the settings, the user interface can display the TIME TO CLEAN AIR FILTER notification.
Maintenance and service 4 Dry the air filter in the shadow. 5 Reattach the air filter and close the suction grille. 6 Turn ON the power. 7 Press the FILTER SIGN RESET button. Result: The TIME TO CLEAN AIR FILTER notification disappears from the user interface.
Maintenance and service Design panel: 3 Remove the air filter. 4 Clean the suction grille. Wash with a soft bristle brush, and water or neutral detergent. If the suction grille is very dirty, use a typical kitchen cleaner, leave it on for 10 min, then wash it with water. 5 Reattach the air filter (step 3 in reverse order).
Maintenance and service 17.4 Maintenance before a long stop period E.g., at the end of the season. ▪ Let the indoor units run in fan only operation for about half a day in order to dry the interior of the units. Refer to "15.2.2 ...
Maintenance and service WARNING R410A is a non-combustible refrigerant, and R32 is a mildly flammable refrigerant; they normally don’t leak. If the refrigerant leaks in the room and comes into contact with fire from a burner, a heater, or a cooker, this may result in a fire (in case of R32), or the formation of a harmful gas.

Troubleshooting 18 Troubleshooting If one of the following malfunctions occur, take the measures shown below and contact your dealer. WARNING Stop operation and shut off the power if anything unusual occurs (burning smells etc.). Leaving the unit running under such circumstances may cause breakage, electric shock or fire.
Troubleshooting If after checking all above items, it is impossible to fix the problem yourself, contact your installer and state the symptoms, the complete model name of the unit (with manufacturing number if possible) and the installation date (possibly listed on the warranty card).
Troubleshooting 18.1.6 Symptom: The user interface reads "U4" or "U5" and stops, but then restarts after a few minutes This is because the user interface is intercepting noise from electric appliances other than the air conditioner. The noise prevents communication between the units, causing them to stop.
Troubleshooting 18.1.14 Symptom: The compressor in the outdoor unit does not stop after a short heating operation This is to prevent refrigerant from remaining in the compressor. The unit will stop after 5 to 10 minutes. FCAG35~140BVEB Installer and user reference guide Split system air conditioners 4P561448-1B –...
