Notes (Only for wireless remote controller):

■ When using the wireless remote controller, point it towards the receiver on the indoor unit.

■ If the remote controller is operated within approximately 3 minutes after power is supplied to the indoor unit, the indoor unit may beep twice as the unit is performing the initial automatic check.

■ The indoor unit beeps to confirm that the signal transmitted from the remote controller has been received. Signals can be received up to approximately 7 meters in a direct line from the indoor unit in an area 45° to the left and right of the unit. However, illumination such as fluorescent lights and strong light can affect the ability of the indoor unit to receive signals.

■ To avoid misplacing the remote controller, install the holder included with the remote controller on a wall and be sure to always place the remote controller in the holder after use.

Warning:

■ Do not dispose of the controller by yourself.

• Consult your dealer in case of disposal.

■ Never modify or repair the controller by yourself.

• Any deficiency caused by your modification or repair may result in an electric shock or fire.

Consult your dealer about repairs.

• Leaving the controller in these conditions can lead to fire or breakdown. Report such conditions to your dealer.

• Doing so can cause the strong alkaline liquid to leak and possibly enter your eyes or cause the batteries to explode or heat up, resulting in personal injuries, burning or mechanical breakdowns. If strong alkaline liquid comes in contact with your skin or clothes, wash it off with clean water. If it gets in to your eyes, wash them with clean water and consult a doctor immediately.

Caution:

■ Do not drop the controller.

• Doing so may cause the case to crack and may disable control.

■ Do not wash with water.

• Doing so may cause an electric shock or breakdown.

■ Do not touch any control button with wet hands.

• Doing so may cause an electric shock or breakdown.

■ Do not press any control button with a sharp object.

• Doing so may cause an electric shock or breakdown.

(1) Do not recharge the batteries.

(2) Insert the batteries in the correct direction.

(3) Do not mix a new battery with an old battery or batteries of different types.

(4) Remove the batteries immediately when they have run out.

Battery installation/replacement

1. Remove the top cover, insert two LR6 AA batteries, and then install the top cover.

2. Press the Reset button.

Two LR6 AA batteries Insert the negative (–) end of each battery first. Install the batteries in the correct directions (+, –) !

Press the Reset button with an object that has a narrow end.

• Operation modes that are not available to the connected outdoor unit models will not appear on the display.

What the blinking mode icon means The mode icon will blink when other indoor units in the same refrigerant system (connected to the same outdoor unit) are already operated in a different mode. In this case, the rest of the unit in the same group can only be operated in the same mode.

Automatic operation

■ According to a set temperature, cooling operation starts if the room tem-perature is too hot and heating operation starts if the room temperature is too cold.

■ During automatic operation, if the room temperature changes and re-mains 2.0 °C, 4 °F or more above the set temperature for 15 minutes, the air conditioner switches to cool mode. In the same way, if the room temperature remains 2.0 °C, 4 °F or more below the set temperature for 15 minutes, the air conditioner switches to heat mode.

• When you try to operate 2 or more indoor units with 1 outdoor unit simultaneously, one for the cooling and the other for heating, the operation mode of the indoor unit that operates earlier is selected.

The other indoor units that will start the operation later cannot operate, indicating an operation state in blinking.

In this case, please set all the indoor units to the same operation mode.

• There might be a case that the indoor unit, which is operating in “Auto” mode. Cannot change over to the operating mode “Cool”/“Heat” and becomes a state of standby.

• When indoor unit starts the operation while the defrosting of outdoor unit is being done, it takes a few minutes (max. about 15 minutes) to blow out the warm air.

• In the heating operation, though indoor unit that does not operate may get warm or the sound of refrigerant flowing may be heard, they are not malfunction. The reason is that the refrigerant continuously flows into it.

6. Care and Cleaning

When the is displayed on the Main display in the Full mode, the system is centrally controlled and the filter sign cannot be reset.

If two or more indoor units are connected, filter cleaning timing for each unit may be different, depending on the filter type.

The icon will appear when the filter on the main unit is due for cleaning.

When the filter sign is reset, the cumulative operation time of all units will be reset.

The icon is scheduled to appear after a certain duration of operation, based on the premise that the indoor units are installed in a space with ordinary air quality. Depending on the air quality, the filter may require more frequent cleaning.

The cumulative time at which filter needs cleaning depends on the model.

• This indication is not available for wireless remote controller.
