• Refrigerant fl ow inside the unit.
• This may due to damp smell emitted by the wall, carpet, furniture or
clothing.
• This helps to remove the surrounding odours.
• The delay is a protection to the unit's compressor.
• Condensation or evaporation occurs on pipes.
• To avoid unintended cooling effect.
• Changes of temperature cause the expansion/contraction of the unit.
• This happens when the room temperature reaches the set temperature,
operation switches to FAN mode and the humidity increase.
