How INTELLIGENT EYE operation works
The INTELLIGENT EYE sensor detects human movement and adjusts the right and left airflow direction.
If no one is in the room for more than 20 minutes, the operation automatically changes to energy saving
operation. The INTELLIGENT EYE sensor works differently depending on the situation.
[Example]

* The airflow direction may differ from the illustrated direction depending on the actions and movements of the people in the areas.
INTELLIGENT EYE operation is useful for energy saving
Energy saving operation
• If no presence detected in the room for 20 minutes, the energy saving operation will start, and the INTELLIGENT EYE lamp goes off.
If human movement is detected again, the INTELLIGENT EYE lamp lights up and energy saving operation terminates.
• This operation changes the temperature by –3.6°F (–2.0°C) in HEAT / +3.6°F (+2.0°C) in COOL / +3.6°F (+2.0°C) in DRY operation from
the set temperature.
When the room temperature exceeds 86°F (30.0°C), the operation changes the temperature by +1.8°F (+1.0°C) in COOL / +1.8°F (+1.0°C)
in DRY operation from the set temperature.
• This operation decreases the airflow rate slightly in FAN operation only.

• If the air conditioner is in INTELLIGENT EYE operation and the mode "Do not blow directly on people" is selected, the louvers adjust the airflow
direction if there are people in the sensing areas of the INTELLIGENT EYE so that the leftward or rightward airflow will not be directed to the people.
If no people are detected in either area 1 or 2 for 20 minutes, the air conditioner switches to the energy-saving mode with the set temperature
shifted by 3.6°F (2.0°C).
The air conditioner may switch to the energy-saving operation even if there are people in the areas.
This may occur depending on the clothes the people are wearing, if there is no movement of the people in the areas.
• The airflow direction from the louvers will be leftward if there are people in both areas 1 and 2. The air will also flow left if there is a person right
in front of the sensor as the sensor judges that there are people in both areas.
• Due to the position of the sensor, people might be exposed to the airflow of the indoor unit if they are close to the front side of the indoor unit. If
there are people close to the front side of the indoor unit or in both areas, it is recommended to use the COMFORT AIRFLOW and
INTELLIGENT EYE operations simultaneously. Using both modes together, the air conditioner will not direct the airflow towards the people.
• The sensor could also mistakenly detect pets, sunlight, fluttering curtains and light reflected off of mirrors as passers-by.
• The sensor may not detect moving objects further than 23ft (7m) away. (Please see the application range)
• Sensor detection sensitivity changes according to the indoor unit location, the speed of passers-by, temperature range, etc.
• NIGHT SET mode Page 27 will not switch on during use of INTELLIGENT EYE operation.
