An alternative refrigerant (R410A) is used in this air-conditioner. When asking your
dealer for service or inspection and maintenance, explain the dealer about it.
Restart is blocked for 3 minutes after you have stopped the operation to protect the unit.
The three-minute protection timer in the microcomputer automatically starts it up again.
The indoor fan may stop to prevent re-evaporation of dehumified moisture and to save
energy.
This may occur if the room's temperature and humidity are very high. It disappears as
soon as the temperature and humidity decrease.
Air blown out during operation may smell. This is caused by tobacco or cosmetics
adhering to the unit.
This is caused by refrigerating liquid moving within the unit.
This is caused by heat expansion or contraction.
This is caused by the operation of the refrigerant control valves or electric components.
If the auto restart function is not set, the unit will not restart automatically. Use the remote
control to start the operation again.
Remote control signals may not be received if the signal receiver on the air-conditioner is
exposed to direct sunlight or other bright light.
If so, cut out the sunlight or reduce the other light.
If the unit is operated for a long time in high humidity, moisture may form on the air outlet
grills and start dripping.
The noise means that the revolution speed of the compressor is increasing or decreasing.
Indoor fan : Fan will not stop after 2 hours if set to CLEAN operation.
Outdoor fan : Fan will not stop about a 1 minute period in order to protect the unit.
The RUN light illuminates during CLEAN operation.
Run light turns off when CLEAN operation ends.
Poor cooling
Have you set the thermostat at a suitable temperature?
Is the air filter clean? (Not clogged?)
Did you leave any doors or windows open?
Is there any direct sunlight entering the room?
Is there a heat source in the room?
Are there too many people in the room?
