UNIT DOES NOT SEND OUT WARM AIR

The unit is preheating or de-icing.

ODORS

Carpet and furniture odors that entered into the unit may be sent out from the unit.

CRACKING NOISE

The unit may produce a cracking noise. This sound is generated by the friction of the front panel and other components expanding or connecting due to a temperature change.

A LOW BUZZING NOISE EMITTED

This is a sound emitted when the unit is generating Plasmacluster ions.

SWISHING NOISE

The soft, swishing noise is the sound of the refrigerant flowing inside the unit.

WATER VAPOUR

In the COOL and DRY operation, water vapour can sometimes be seen at the air outlet due to the difference between the room air temperature and the air discharged by the unit.

In the HEAT operation, water vapour may flow out of the outdoor unit during de-icing.

THE OUTDOOR UNIT DOES NOT STOP

After stopping the operation, the outdoor unit will rotate its' fan for about a minute to cool down the unit.

ODOR EMITTED FROM THE PLASMACLUSTER AIR OUTLET

This is the smell of ozone generated from the Plasmacluster Ion generator. The ozone concentration is very small, posing no adverse effect on your health. The ozone discharged into the air rapidly decomposes, and its density in the room will not increase.

When using your air conditioner with multi- system

INDOOR UNIT BECOMES WARM EVEN WHEN IDLE

This is because the refrigerant also floes through the idle indoor unit's pipes when the other unit is operated in HEAT mode.

INDOOR UNIT BECOMES WARM EVEN WHEN NOT DURING HEATING OPERATION

At this time, you may feel warm air coming out from the unit air outlet if HEATING is performed with units in other rooms. Indoor fan will decrease its rotating speed and will turn ON and OFF depending on the room temperature.

Check the outdoor unit to make sure nothing is blocking the air inlet or outlet.

Check the thermostat is proper setting.

Make sure windows and doors are closed tightly.

A large number of people in the room can prevent the unit from achieving the desired temperature.

Check whether any heat-generating appliances are operating in the room.

IF THE UNIT FAILS TO RECEIVE THE REMOTE CONTROL SIGNAL

Check whether the remote control batteries have become old and weak.

Try to send the signal again with the remote control pointed properly towards the unit’s signal receiver window.

Check whether the remote control batteries are installed with the polarities properly aligned.

Please call for service when TEMPERATURE INDICATOR on the indicator panel blink.
