•Once the room temperature reaches the level that was set, the unit repeats the cycle of turning on and off automatically.
•In order to prevent the humidity in the room from rising again, the indoor fan also turns off when the unit stops operating.
•The fan speed is set to “LO.” automatically, and cannot be adjusted.
•“DRY” operation is not possible if the outdoor temperature is 59 °F or less.
•Because this appliance heats a room by utilizing the heat of the outside air (heat pump system), the heating efficiency will fall off when the outdoor temperature is very low. If sufficient heat cannot be obtained with this heat pump, use another heating appliance in conjunction with this unit.
•When the outdoor temperature is low, frost or ice may form on the outdoor heat exchanger coil, reducing the heating performance. When this happens, a
very low speed in some cases) and the (STANDBY) indicator appears on the display until defrosting is completed. Heating operation then restarts after several minutes. (This interval will vary slightly depending upon the outdoor temperature and the way in which frost forms.)
•For several minutes after the start of heating operation, the indoor fan will not start running (or it will run at very low speed in some cases) until the indoor heat exchanger coil has warmed up sufficiently. This is because a
cold draft prevention system is operating. During this period, the (STANDBY) indicator remains displayed.
•The indicator remains displayed during defrosting or when the compressor has been turned off (or when the unit is running at very low speed) by the thermostat when the system is in the heating mode.
•Upon completion of defrosting and when the compressor is turned on
again, (STANDBY) will turn off automatically as heating operation resumes.
NOTE
Should the power fail while the unit is running
If the power supply for this unit is temporarily interrupted, the unit will automatically resume operation (once the power is restored) with the same settings that were in effect before the power was interrupted.
