Operating the system

6.2.1

About operating the system

▪ Operation procedure varies according to the combination of
outdoor unit and user interface.
▪ To protect the unit, turn on the main power switch 6 hours before
operation.
▪ If the main power supply is turned off during operation, operation
will restart automatically after the power turns back on again.
6.2.2 About cooling, heating, fan only, and
automatic operation
▪ Changeover cannot be made with a user interface whose display
shows "changeover under centralised control" (refer to
installation and operation manual of the user interface).
▪ When the display "changeover under centralised control"
flashes, refer to "6.5.1 About
interface" [ 4 13].
▪ The fan may keep on running for about 1 minute after the heating
operation stops.
▪ The air flow rate may adjust itself depending on the room
temperature or the fan may stop immediately. This is not a
malfunction.
6.2.3

About the heating operation

It may take longer to reach the set temperature for general heating
operation than for cooling operation.
The following operation is performed in order to prevent the heating
capacity from dropping or cold air from blowing.
Defrost operation
In heating operation, freezing of the outdoor unit's air cooled coil
increases over time, restricting the energy transfer to the outdoor
unit's coil. Heating capability decreases and the system needs to go
into defrost operation to be able to remove frost from the outdoor
unit's coil. During defrost operation the heating capacity on the
indoor unit side will temporarily drop until defrosting is completed.
After defrosting, the unit will regain its full heating capacity.
The indoor unit will stop fan operation, the refrigerant cycle will
reverse and energy from inside the building will be used to defrost
the outdoor unit coil.
The indoor unit will indicate defrost operation on the display
Hot start
In order to prevent cold air from blowing out of an indoor unit at the
start of heating operation, the indoor fan is automatically stopped.
The display of the user interface shows
before the fan starts. This is not a malfunction.
6.2.4 To operate the system (WITHOUT cool/
heat changeover remote control switch)

To stop
3 Press the ON/OFF button on the user interface once again.
Result: The operation lamp goes out and the system stops
operating.
NOTICE
Do not turn off power immediately after the unit stops, but
wait for at least 5 minutes.
To adjust
For programming temperature, fan speed and air flow direction refer
to the operation manual of the user interface.

Using the dry program

6.3.1

About the dry program

▪ The function of this program is to decrease the humidity in your
room with minimal temperature decrease (minimal room cooling).
▪ The micro computer automatically determines temperature and
fan speed (cannot be set by the user interface).
▪ The system does not go into operation if the room temperature is
low (<20°C).
