OPERATION TIPS

The following events may occur during normal operation.
1.

The compressor can't restart for 3 minutes after it stops.

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).

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 build up on the outdoor unit.

2.

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.

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 temperature is changing.
A noise may be heard due to louver restoring to its original position when power is first turned on.

4.

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.

This is caused by the indoor unit giving off smells permeated from building material, from furniture,
or smoke.

6.

When indoor temperature reaches the temperature setting on air conditioner, the compressor will
stop automatically, and the air conditioner turns to FAN only mode. The compressor will start again
when the indoor temperature rises on COOL mode or falls on HEAT mode (For cooling and heating
models only) to the set point.

Protection of the air conditioner.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Maintenance

Checks before operation

If you plan to idle the unit for a long time, perform
the following:

(1) Operate the fan for about half a day to dry the

inside of the unit.

(2) Stop the air conditioner and disconnect power.

(3) The outdoor unit requires periodic maintenance

and cleaning. Do not attempt to do this yourself.
Contact your dealer or servicer.

Remove the batteries from the remote controller.

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.

Do not touch the metal parts of the unit when
removing the filter. Injuries can occur when
handling sharp metal edges.
Do not use water to clean inside the air conditioner.
Exposure to water can destroy the insulation,
leading to possible electric shock.
When cleaning the unit, first make sure that the
power and circuit breaker are turned off.

4. Remove the Air Freshening Filter from its support

frame (on some models).

(The optional filter include :Plasma Dust Collector/

Silver Ion filter /Bio filter /Vitamin C filter/3M air
purifier filter, etc. The removing and installation
methods are slightly different, see the pictures
marked

and

on the left.

Clean the air freshening filter at least once a

month, and replace it every 4-5 months.

Clean it with vacuum cleaner, then dry it in cool

place.

5. Install the air freshening filter back into position.
6. Insert the upper portion of air filter back into the

unit, taking care that the left and right edges line
up correctly and place filter into position. For the
filters with gaps on the edges, please make sure
the filter is completely fixed and locked in the
filter holder.
