OPERATION DETAILS
Instructions relating to heating(*) are applicable only to “HEAT & COOL MODEL” (Reverse Cycle).
Please read and understand the following details regarding this air conditioner.
Operation and Performance
*Heating Performance
●This air conditioner uses a heat pump which absorbs heat from outside air and brings it indoors. As a result, its heat- ing performance is reduced as the temperature of out- side air drops. If you find that insufficient room heat is produced, we recommend that you use the air conditioner together with other heating appliances.
●
*When Indoor and Outdoor Temperatures are High
When both indoor and outdoor temperatures are high dur- ing use of the heating mode, the outdoor unit’s fan may stop at times.
* Microcomputer-controlled Automatic Defrosting
When the outside temperature is low and the humidity high, frost will collect on the outside unit, reducing heater effi- ciency. When this happens, the computer will automatically start the defrost cycle. During the defrost cycle, the indoor fan will shutdown and DEFROST will be displayed on the remote controller. It will take anywhere from 4 to 15 min- utes before the air conditioner starts up again.
Low Ambient Cooling
When the outdoor temperature drops, the outdoor unit’s fans may switch to Low Speed, or one of the fans may stop inter- mittently.
AUTO Restart
In Event of Power Interruption
●Should the power supply to the air conditioner be inter- rupted by a power failure, the air conditioner will restart automatically in the previously selected mode once the power is restored.
●Use of other electrical appliances (electric shaver, etc.) or nearby use of a wireless radio transmitter may cause the air conditioner to malfunction. In this event, temporarily turn off the circuit breaker turn it on again and then use the remote controller to resume operation.
