Normal operating sounds

When your air conditioner operates nor- mally, you will hear sounds such as:

l PINGING or CLICKING as water droplets hit the condenser. Water droplets help cool the condenser.

l AIR MOVEMENT from the fan, especially on QUICK COMFORT setting.

l CLICKS from the cooling cycle.

Sounds may also be caused by house construction - such as vibration of the unit due to wall construction or an unsteady window mounting area.
