Temperature and Humidity Ranges

If you check the following tables, you can use your air conditioner more efficiently.

If the air conditioner is used at... Then...

Heating capacity

The air conditioner may stop operating for the reason of protection.

 

 

Low temperatures

Water may leak and some malfunction may occur if the heat exchanger freezes.

 

 

Protection mechanism

Water may condense and drip from the surface of the indoor unit if you don’t use

the air conditioner for an extended period of time.

If the outdoor temperature is as low as 0°C, the heating capacity drops up to 70~80% depending on the operating condition.

If you use the air conditioner in temperatures over 32°C (indoor temperature), the cooling capacity may drop.

Operating Recommendations

When you use your air conditioner, it is recommended that you read the following:

 

Topic

Recommendation

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Common

Airconditioner should be used only in the single closed

room.

 

 

 

Effective airconditioner operation can be guarantee if all

windows and doors in the room are

 

 

 

closed.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Heating capacity

The heat pump inside the air conditioner absorbs heat from outside air and brings itindoors.

 

 

 

If the temperature of the outside air drops, the air conditioner heats less. If the room is not warm

 

 

 

enough, use an additional heating appliance.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Warm air circulation

The air conditioner circulates warm air to heat your room. It will take some time to warm

 

 

 

the air in your room entirely after the air conditioner turns on.

 

 

 

Therefore, turn the air conditioner on in advance.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Frost

When you select the Heat mode, frost may form in the outdoor unit due to low temperature

 

 

 

and high humidity.

 

 

 

If this happens:

 

 

 

The heating operation is stopped.

 

 

 

The air conditioner defrosts automatically for about 7 minutes. After about 7 minutes,

 

 

 

the air conditioner starts operating again normally.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

High indoor and

If both the indoor and outdoor temperatures are high when you select the Heat mode,

 

 

outdoor temperatures

the fan and the compressor of the outdoor unit may stop periodically.

 

 

 

This is normal; wait until the air conditioner turns on again.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Power failure

If a power failure occurs when the air conditioner is operating, the air conditioner will turn off.

 

 

 

When the power returns, the air conditioner will start up again automatically.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Protection mechanism

When the air conditioner is started immediately after being plugged in or stopped,

 

 

 

the normal operation starts up after 3 minutes for the reason of protection.
