8-3. AUTO RESTART FUNCTION When the indoor unit is controlled with the remote controller, the operation mode, the set temperature, and the fan speed are memorized by the indoor electronic control P.C. board. “AUTO RESTART FUNCTION” automatically starts operation in the same mode just before the shutoff of the main power. Operation If the main power has been cut, the operation settings remain.

9-6. AUTO VANE OPERATION 1. Horizontal vane (Horizontal vane/Multi-flow vane) (1) Vane motor drive These models are equipped with a stepping motors for the horizontal vanes. The rotating direction, speed, and angle of the motor are controlled by pulse signals (approximately 12 V) transmitted from indoor microprocessor. (2) The horizontal vane angle and mode change as follows by pressing VANE CONTROL ( ) button.

(6) STOP (operation OFF) and ON TIMER standby In the following cases, the horizontal vane returns to the closed position. (a) When OPERATE/STOP (ON/OFF) button is pressed (POWER OFF). (b) When the operation is stopped by the emergency operation. (c) When ON TIMER is ON standby. (7) Dew prevention During COOL or DRY operation with the vane angle at Angle 3 or 4 when the compressor cumulative operation time exceeds 1 hour, the vane angle automatically changes to Angle 1 for dew prevention.
