(14) Control at initial starting
• When the ambient temperature is low (5˚C or less in cooling and – 5˚C or less in heating), initial starting will not
be performed even if the unit is started within 4 hours of the power being turned on.
• The following initial start mode will be performed when the unit is started for the first time after the power has
been turned on.
• When operation volume is low in the indoor unit, the constant
capacity unit may not run for as long as 7 hours. In order to
finish initial operation mode quickly, increase the operation
volume of the indoor unit and run under high-external tempera-
ture conditions.
<Flow chart of initial start mode>
• No.1 compressor: variable capacity unit No.1 compressor
• No.2 compressor: variable capacity unit No.2 compressor
• No.3 compressor: constant capacity unit compressor
At the completion of "Step 2",
if the frequency of No.1
compressor is below the
specified value and if "Step 2"
has been completed less
than 3 times, the process
does not proceed to Step 3
but rather enters the "Pause
Step" and then repeats "Step 2".
If 7 hours has passed since
the power was turned on,
step 4, 5, and 6 are skipped.
