SPECIAL REMARKS
Once the room temperature reaches the level that was set, the unit repeats the cycle of turning
on and off automatically.
In order to prevent the humidity in the room from rising again, the indoor fan also turns off when
the unit stops operating.
The fan speed is set to ''LO.'' automatically, and cannot be adjusted.
''DRY'' operation is not possible if the outdoor temperature is 15 °C or less.
Because this appliance heats a room by utilizing the heat of the outside air (heat pump system),
the heating effi ciency will fall off when the outdoor temperature is very low. If suffi cient heat
cannot be obtained with this heat pump, use another heating appliance in conjunction with this
unit.
When the outdoor temperature is low, frost or ice may form on the outdoor heat exchanger coil,
reducing the heating performance. When this happens, a microcomputer-controlled defrosting
system operates. At the same time, the fan on the indoor unit stops (or runs at very low speed in
some cases) and the ''STANDBY'' indicator appears on the display until defrosting is completed.
Heating operation then restarts after several minutes. (This interval will vary slightly depending
upon the outdoor temperature and the way in which frost forms.)
For several minutes after the start of heating operation, the indoor fan will not start running (or
it will run at very low speed in some cases) until the indoor heat exchanger coil has warmed up
suffi ciently. This is because a cold draft prevention system is operating. During this period, the
''
'' (standby) indicator remains displayed.
''
'' (standby) remains displayed during defrosting or when the compressor has been turned
off (or when the unit is running at very low speed) by the thermostat when the system is in the
heating mode.
Upon completion of defrosting and when the compressor is turned on again, ''
turn off automatically as heating operation resumes.
CARE AND CLEANING
1.
For safety, be sure to turn the air conditioner off and also to disconnect the power
before cleaning.
2.
Do not pour water on the indoor unit to clean it. This will damage the internal
components and cause an electric shock hazard.
Clean the air intake and outlet side of the indoor unit with a vacuum cleaner brush, or wipe them
with a clean, soft cloth.
If these parts are stained, use a clean cloth moistened with water. When cleaning the air outlet
side, be careful not to force the vanes out of place.
1.
Never use solvents or harsh chemicals when cleaning the indoor unit. Do not wipe
plastic parts using very hot water.
2.
Some metal edges and the fi ns are sharp and may cause injury if handled improperly;
be especially careful when you clean these parts.
The internal coil and other components of the outdoor unit must be cleaned
3.
periodically. Consult your dealer or service center.
