Adjusting air flow direction

• Adjust the air flow direction properly otherwise, it might cause
discomfort or cause uneven room temperatures.
• Adjust the horizontal louver using the remote controller.
• Adjust the vertical louver manually.
Adjusting the Vertical Air Flow Direction (up - down)
The air conditioner automatically adjusts the vertical air flow
direction in accordance with the operating mode.
To set the vertical air flow direction
Perform this function while the unit is in operation.
Keep pressing the AIR DIRECTION button on the remote controller
to move the louver to the desired direction.
• Adjust the vertical air flow direction to the desired direction.

AIR DIRECTION button.
Lever
To set the horizontal air flow direction (left - right)
Adjust the vertical louver manually using the lever on the left or right
side of the vertical louver arm (Depending on model). Take care not
to catch fingers on the fan, horizontal louver or to damage vertical
louvers. When the air conditioner is in operation and the horizontal
louver is in a specific position, move the lever at left (or right,
depending on model) end of the air outlet to the desired position.
How the air conditioner works
AUTOMATIC OPERATION
• When you set the air conditioner in AUTO mode, it will
automatically select cooling, heating(cooling/heating models
only), or fan only operation depending on what
temperature you have selected and the room temperature.
• The air conditioner will control room temperature automatically
round the temperature point set by you.
• If the AUTO mode is uncomfortable, you can select desired
conditions manually.
ECONOMIC OPERATION
When you push ECONO button during cooling, heating (cooling
only type without), or AUTO operation, the air conditioner will start
following operation. The fan speed will be automatically controlled.
In the operation suppression zone where capacity is kept to the
minimum, overcooling is prevented by raising the temperature
setting by 1°C after 1 hour and by 2°C after 2 hours of operation.
The room temperature is thus regulated between the operation
suppression zone and the set temperature. (It depends on the
outdoor temperature.)
To automatically swing the air flow direction (up - down)
Perform this function while the air conditioner is in operation.
• Press the SWING button on the remote controller. To stop the
function, press the SWING button again.
• Press AIR DIRECTION button to lock louver in desired position.
CAUTION
• The AIR DIRECTION and SWING buttons will be disabled when
the air conditioner is not in operation (including when the TIMER
ON is set).
• Do not operate the air conditioner for long periods with the air flow
direction set downward in cooling or dry mode. Otherwise,
condensation may occur on the surface of the horizontal
louver causing moisture to drop on to the floor or on furnishings.
• Do not move the horizontal louver manually. Always use the AIR
DIRECTION or SWING button. If you move this louver manually, it
may malfunction during operation. If the louver malfunctions, stop
the air conditioner once and restart it.
• When the air conditioner is started immediately after it was
stopped, the horizontal louver might not move for approximately
10 seconds.
• Open angle of the horizontal louver should not be set too small, as
COOLING or HEATING performance may be impaired due to too
restricted air flow area.
• Do not operate unit with horizontal louver in closed position.
• When the air conditioner is connected to power (initial power), the
horizontal louver may generate a sound for 10 seconds, this is a
normal operation.
