fl uorescent lamp, etc.) is used.

Explanation & Check points
• Is the temperature setting appropriate?
• Is the fan setting appropriate? Please change fan speed to High
or Super High. Page 9
• Are the fi lters clean? Page 13
• Is the fan or heat exchanger of the indoor unit clean?
• Are there any obstacles blocking the air inlet or outlet of the in-
door or outdoor unit?
• Is a window or door open?
• When a ventilation fan or a gas cooker is used in a room, the
cooling load increases, resulting in an insuffi cient cooling effect.
• When the outside temperature is high, the cooling effect may not
be suffi cient.
• It may take a certain time to reach the setting temperature or may
not reach that depending on the size of the room, the ambient
temperature, and the like.
• Are the fi lters clean? Page 13
• Is the fan or heat exchanger of the indoor unit clean?
• The unit may suck in an odor adhering to the wall, carpet, furni-
ture, cloth, etc. and blow it out with the air.
• This sound is generated by the expansion/contraction of the front
panel, etc. due to change in temperature.
• This sound is heard when the outside air is absorbed from the
drain hose by turning on the range hood or the ventilation fan,
making water fl owing in the drain hose to spout out.
This sound is also heard when the outside air blows into the drain
hose in case the outside wind is strong.
• This is the switching sound in turning on/off the fan or the com-
pressor.
• This is the sound of refrigerant or condensed water fl owing in the
unit.
