When the outdoor temperature is low and humidity is high, frost will collect
at the outdoor unit. The defrosting causes them to turn into hot air and
water.
The "environmental odours" derived from walls, carpets, furniture, clothes and etc.,
are being circulated in the ventilation system.
ODOUR WASH LAMP BLINKING
The accumulated odour from the interior of the air conditioner had permeated the

On confirmation of certain type of operating mode, the lamp will be on.
Starting of heating operations
The lamp will be blinking when air outflow has been stopped to prevent cold air from
coming out.
During heating operations
When the outdoor temperature is low and humidity is high, frost will collect at the
outdoor unit. During defrosting (Defrosting operations), the lamp will be blinking.
Please wait for 12 minutes for the operation to complete.

Occasionally there is a knocking sound.
This is the sound caused by the switching over of refrigerant gas in the system
during defrosting and end of operations.
"Pitt" sound:
Caused by shrinkage of the resin made parts of the air conditioner due to change in
temperature.
Sound of flowing water:
Caused by the flow of refrigerant gas through the air conditioner system.
Caused by the condensation of the water vapour found in the room air, upon contact
with the cold air outflow from the air conditioner.
Extraction of remaining heat in the indoor unit. (Maximum duration: 30 seconds)
During heating
The vertical airflow direction louvres are closed to prevent the outflow of cold air.
