  • Page 4: Cooling Operation

    1. COOLING OPERATION 1-1 COOLING CAPACITY CONTROL A sensor (room temperature thermistor) built in the indoor unit body will usually perceive difference or variation between a set temperature and present room temperature, and controls the operation frequency of the compressor. * If the room temperature is 2°C higher than a set temperature, the compressor operation frequency will attain to maximum performance.

  • Page 5: Heating Operation

    2. HEATING OPERATION 2-1 HEATING CAPACITY CONTROL A sensor (room temperature thermistor) built in the indoor unit body will usually perceive difference or variation between a set temperature and present room temperature, and controls the operation frequency of the compressor. * If the room temperature is lower by 3°C than a set temperature, the compressor operation frequency will attain to maximum performance.

  • Page 6: Auto Changeover Operation

    4. AUTO CHANGEOVER OPERATION When the air conditioner is set to the AUTO mode by remote control, operation starts in the optimum mode from among the HEATING, COOLING, DRY and MONITORING modes. During operation, the optimum mode is automatically switched in accordance with temperature changes. The temperature can be set between 18°C and 30°C in 1°C steps.

  • Page 16: Auto Restart

    14. AUTO RESTART When the power was interrupted by a power failure, etc. during operation, the operation contents at that time are memorized and when power is recovered, operation is automatically started with the memorized operation contents. When the power is interrupted and recovered during timer operation, since the timer operation time is shifted by the time the power was interrupted, an alarm is given by blinking (7 sec ON/2 sec OFF) the indoor unit body timer lamp.
