When set at AUTO. the indoor unit fan speed will be automatically adjusted to the room temperature as the two charts shown below.

  • Page 29: 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 30: Freeze Prevention (Cooling)

    2. Processes and functions 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: Electronic Refrigerant Control Valve

    2. Processes and functions 2-13 Electronic Refrigerant Control 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 39: Compressor Current Detection Circuit

    2. Processes and functions 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 40: Dehumidifying Operation

    2. Processes and functions 2-16 Dehumidifying Operation Dehumidifying operation uses the cooling cycle to remove moisture from the air, but by running an indoor fan at a low speed, to dehumidify without greatly lowering room temperature. In this mode, the microprocessor automatically controls the ON-OFF operation between +2 deg.

    4. Service procedures Service Functions of Remote Controller From the remote controller you can control both the operation and settings of the unit as well as perform several useful service checks. This section explains how to use the remote controller on the following items from (A) to (J). (A) Set service check switches.
  • Page 78 4. Service procedures (B) Use the test run procedure The purpose of the test run function is to let you control the operation of the unit directly without turning the unit on or off by thermostat. As indicated in the following procedure, be sure to stop test run operation when you finish the procedure, or the air conditioner may be damaged.
  • Page 79 4. Service procedures (C) Check the sensor temperature readings The air conditioner has thermo sensors which are used to control the unit. Each sensor has an address which is made up of the indoor unit address, and the sensor address. The indoor unit address is used only when several units are hooked up to one remote controller (group control).
