7. FUNCTION 7-1. Room Temperature Control Cooling Room temperature control is obtained by cycling the compressor ON and OFF under control of the room temperature sensor in the remote control unit. The room temperature (and other information) is transmitted every 3 minutes by the remote control unit to the controller in the indoor unit.

Heating Room temperature control is obtained by cycling the compressor ON and OFF under control of the room temperature sensor in the remote control unit. The room temperature (and other information) is transmitted every 3 minutes by the remote control unit to the controller in the indoor unit.
7-2. Dry Operation (Dehumidification) Dry operation uses the ability of the cooling cycle to remove moisture from the air, but by running at low level to dehumidify without greatly reducing the room temperature. The air conditioner repeats the cycle of turning ON and OFF automatically as shown in the chart below according to the room temperature.
7-4. Freeze Prevention (Cooling) This function prevents freezing of the indoor heat exchange coil. When the compressor has been running for 10 minutes or more and the temperature of the indoor heat exchange coil falls below –1°C, the control circuit stops the compressor for at least 6 minutes. The compressor does not start again until the temperature rises above 8°C or 6 minutes has elapsed.
7-5. Overload Prevention (Heating) This function prevents overheating of the indoor heat exchange coil. When the temperature of the indoor heat exchange coil rises above 59°C, and if the indoor fan is L (low speed), then the fan speed changes from L (low speed) to M (medium speed). When the temperature of the indoor heat exchange coil rises above 61°C, the outdoor fan stops.
7-6. Cold Draft Prevention (Heating) This function controls indoor fan speed so a strong draft of cold air will not blow out before the indoor heat exchange coil have sufficiently warmed up. STANDBY lamp on front of the indoor unit lights up when this function is working. when 10 minutes has elapsed,the fan speed is automatically switched to set speed regardless of indoor heat exchange coil temperature.

10. DISASSEMBLY PROCEDURE FOR INDOOR UNIT IMPORTANT! Please Read Before Starting Safety precautions for servicing the CEILING-MOUNTED indoor unit Before attempting to replace heavy and bulky parts such as the evaporator and fan motor, disconnect the indoor unit from the system and place it on the floor. Refer to the steps given below. When checking or servicing the air intake grille, side panels, or electrical component box, first check that power is completely disconnected.
10-2. Removing Side Panels Hook (1) Remove the 3 screws attaching the left side panel. (Fig. 3) Slot (2) Note the position of the hook on the inside of the left side panel. To disengage the hook from the slot, Hook slide down the panel for removal.
