STANDBY shows on the remote controller when the indoor fan speed is LL (very low) or OFF.
  • Page 29: Automatic Fan Speed (Indoor Unit)

    2. Processes and functions 1. Specifications 2-3 Automatic Fan Speed (Indoor Unit) By pressing the FAN SPEED button on the remote controller, the fan speed can be set at one of four steps: AUTO., HI., MED., or LO. When set at AUTO. the indoor unit fan speed will be automatically adjusted to the room temperature as the two charts shown below.
  • Page 30: Outdoor Fan Speed Control

    2. Processes and functions 2-4 Outdoor Fan Speed Control To optimize the performance of air conditioner, the outdoor fan speed is selected automatically according to the outdoor temperature. Note that in both Cooling and Heating modes, the fan comes on at first at high speed (H mode) for 5 seconds.
  • Page 31: Freeze Prevention (Cooling)

    2. Processes and functions 1. Specifications 2-5 Freeze Prevention (Cooling) Freeze Prevention keeps the indoor heat exchange coil from freezing. Freezing reduces the efficiency of the unit, and frost buildup on the coil blocks cool air circulation from the indoor unit's fan.

  • Page 36 2. Processes and functions Chart summary and Explanations This chart shows how the Operation Mode (COOLING or HEATING) is determined by the microprocessor taking the room temperature into consideration. It also shows the temperature points at which the cooling or heating mode is switched, when the AUTO mode is selected.
  • Page 37: Defrosting Control, Outdoor Heat Exchanger Coil (Heating)

    2. Processes and functions 1. Specifications 2-10 Defrosting Control, Outdoor Heat Exchanger Coil (Heating) When the outdoor temperature is low, frost may form on the outdoor heat exchanger coil. When this occurred, the defrosting system operates. The microprocessor in the outdoor unit monitors the relationship between the temperature of the outdoor heat exchanger coil and the outdoor temperature so it can defrost when necessary.
  • Page 38: 4-Way Valve, Solenoid Control

    2. Processes and functions 2-11 4-Way Valve, Solenoid Control The basic function of the 4-way valve is to direct the refrigerant in the correct direction according to the Operation Mode (COOLING or HEATING) selected.

  • Page 40: Electronic Expansion Valve

    2. Processes and functions 2-13 Electronic Expansion Valve This valve allows very precise and smooth control of the amount of refrigerant flow in the system. Since the valve is operated by a step motor, the control circuits can open or close it in very exact amounts, so the degree of heating or cooling can be changed by just a little, or changed very quickly or slowly.
  • Page 41: Compressor Current Detection Circuit

    2. Processes and functions 1. Specifications 2-15 Compressor Current Detection Circuit The Compressor Current Detection Circuit detects the compressor current and, depending on the current range, can stop the compressor motor so it will not be damaged by overcurrent. Overcurrent can be caused by several factors, particularly mechanical seizing of the compressor or liquid backflow.
  • Page 42: Electronic Expansion Valve Control

    2. Processes and functions 2-16 Electronic Expansion Valve Control The circulation volume of the refrigerant is controlled by a pulse type electronic control valve. When the power is switched ON, the opening degree of the electronic control valve is controlled between 90 and 480 steps after setting the initial step at the time when the thermostat is ON.
