    The remote control setting temperature, which takes the reading of intake air temperature sensor, can be adjusted from 60.8°F to 86°F. During cooling operation, the compressor will stop running and restart as shown in below figure. 8.1.1. Cooling Operation Time Diagram CS-C9DKU CU-C9DKU / CS-C12DKU CU-C12DKU...
  • Page 16: Soft Dry Operation

    CS-C9DKU CU-C9DKU / CS-C12DKU CU-C12DKU 8.2. Soft Dry Operation Soft Dry operation can be set using remote control. Soft Dry operation is applied to dehumidify and to perform a gentle cooling to the room. This operation starts when the intake air temperature sensor reaches the setting temperature on the remote control.
  • Page 17: Automatic Operation

    CS-C9DKU CU-C9DKU / CS-C12DKU CU-C12DKU 8.3. Automatic Operation Automatic operation can be set using remote control. This operation starts to operate with indoor fan at SLo speed for 20 seconds to judge the intake air temperature. After judged the temperature, the operation mode is determined by referring to the below standard.
  • Page 18: Operation Control

    60 Seconds Forced Operation Once the air conditioner is turned on, the compressor will not stop within 60 seconds in a normal operation although the intake air temperature has reached the thermo-off temperature. However, force stop by pressing the OFF/ON operation button at the remote control is permitted.

    It will start with previous operation mode and airflow direction. If there are more than one air conditioner unit in operation and power failure occur, restart time for each unit to operate will be decided randomly using 4 parameters:- intake air temperature, setting temperature, fan speed and air swing louver position.
  • Page 27: Economy Mode Operation

    8.14. Economy Mode Operation Purpose of this operation is to save or reduced electrical power consumption of the room air conditioner. However consumer is advised to use Economy Mode operation after the room temperature reaches the desired temperature. 1. Cooling and Soft Dry Mode When the Economy Mode is set, the set temperature will be automatically increased 0.9°F against the present setting...
