Operation Tips - AUX QC Serie Manual De Instalación Y Usuario

Maintenance
If you plan to idle the unit for a long time, perform the following:
1 . Cl ean th e i nd oor unit and ai r filt er.
2. Select FAN only mode, let the indoor fan run for a while to dry the inside of the unit.
3. Disconnect the power supply and remove battery from the remote control.
4. Check components of the outdoor unit periodically. Contact a local dealer or a customer service centre
if the unit requires servicing.
Note: Before you clean the air conditioner, be sure to switch the unit off and disconnect the power
supply plug.
When the air conditioner is to be used again:
Use a dry cloth to wipe off the dust accumulated on rear air intake grille, in order to avoid the dust
blowing out from the indoor unit.
Check that the wiring is not broken off or disconnected.
Check that the air filter is installed.
Check if the air outlet or inlet is blocked after the air conditioner has not been used for a long time.

Operation tips

The following events may occur during normal operation.
1. Protection of the air conditioner.
Compressor protection
The compressor can't restart for 3 minutes after it stops.
Anti-cold air (Cooling and heating models only)
The unit is designed not to blow cold air on HEAT mode, when the indoor heat exchanger is in
one of the following three situations and the set temperature has not been reached.
A) When heating has just starting.
B) Defrosting.
C) Low temperature heating.
The indoor or outdoor fan stop running when defrosting (Cooling and heating models only).
Defrosting (Cooling and heating models only)
Frost may be generated on the outdoor unit during heat cycle when outdoor temperature is low
and humidity is high resulting in lower heating efficiency of the air conditioner.
During this condition air conditioner will stop heating operation and start defrosting automatically.
The time to defrost may vary from 4 to 10 minutes according to the outdoor temperature and
the amount of frost buildup on the outdoor unit.
2. A white mist coming out from the indoor unit
A white mist may generate due to a large temperature difference between air inlet and air outlet on
COOL mode in an indoor environment that has a high relative humidity.
A white mist may generate due to moisture generated from defrosting process when the air conditioner
restarts in HEAT mode operation after defrosting.
3. Low noise of the air conditioner
You may hear a low hissing sound when the compressor is running or has just stopped running.
This sound is the sound of the refrigerant flowing or coming to a stop.
You can also hear a low "squeak" sound when the compressor is running or has just stopped running.
This is caused by heat expansion and cold contraction of the plastic parts in the unit when the temper-
ature is changing.
A noise may be heard due to louver restoring to its original position when power is first turned on.
4. Dust is blown out from the indoor unit.
This is a normal condition when the air conditioner has not been used for a long time or during first
use of the unit.
5. Auto-restart function
Power failure during operation will stop the unit completely.
For the unit without Auto-restart feature, when the power restores, the OPERATION indicator on the indoor
unit starts flashing. To restart the operation, push the ON/OFF button on the remote controller. For the unit
with Auto-restart feature, when the power restores, the unit restarts automatically with all the previous settings
preserved by the memory function.
