health hazards.

Prior to operation 8 Multi Type Air Conditioner Prior to operation

Contact an installation specialist for installation.

Connect the power cable between indoor unit and outdoor unit properly.

Use a dedicated circuit.

If the cord/plug is damaged, replace it with only an authorized replacement part.

Being exposed to direct airflow for an extended period of time could be hazardous to your health.

Do not expose occupants, pets, or plants to direct airflow for extended periods of time.

Due to the possibility of oxygen deficiency, ventilate the room when used together with stoves or

other heating devices.

Do not use this air conditioner for non-specified special purposes (e.g. preserving precision devices,

food, pets, plants, and art objects). Such usage could damage the items.

Do not touch the metal parts of the unit when removing the filter. Injuries can occur when handling

sharp metal edges.

Do not use water to clean inside the air conditioner. Exposure to water can destroy the insulation,

leading to possible electric shock.

When cleaning the unit, first make sure that the power and breaker are turned off. There is a

possibility of injury if the unit’s power is accidentally triggered on while cleaning inner parts of the unit. For repair and maintenance, contact your authorized service dealer.

Air Filters

The air filters behind the front grille should be checked and cleaned once every 2 weeks or more often if neccessary. ❏Never use any of the followings:

Water hotter than 40°C

Could cause deformation and/or discoloration.

Volatile substances

Could damage the surfaces of the air conditioner. Lift the front access panel and pull the filter tab slightly forward to remove the filter. Clean the filter with a vacuum or warm, soapy water.

If dirt is conspicuous, wash with a solution

of detergent in lukewarm water.

If hot water (40°C or more) is used, it may

be deformed. After washing with water, dry well in the shade. Re-install the air filter.

1 1 2 2 3 When the air conditioner is not going to be used for a long time. Operation Tips Operate the air conditioner on Air circulation mode (Refer to page 19) for 2 to 3 hours.

This will dry out the internal mechanisms.

When air conditioner is not going to be used for a long time. When the air conditioner is to be used again. Turn off the circuit breaker, and disconnect the power cable. Remove the batteries from the Remote Controller. CAUTION: Turn off the circuit breaker when the air conditioner is not going to be used for a long time. Dirt may collect and may cause a fire. Clean the air filter and install it in the indoor unit. (Refer to page 21 for cleaning filters.) Check that the air inlet and outlet of the indoor/outdoor unit are not blocked. Do not overcool the room. This is not good for the health and wastes electricity. Make sure that the doors and windows are shut tight. Avoid opening doors and windows if possible to keep the cool air in the room. Keep blinds or curtains closed. Do not let direct sunshine enter the room when the air conditioner is in operation. Clean the air filter regularly. Blockages in the air filter reduce the airflow and lower cooling and dehumidifying effects. Clean at least once every two weeks. Keep the room temperature uniform. Adjust the vertical and horizontal airflow direction to ensure a uniform temperature in the room. Ventilate the room occasionally. Since windows are kept closed, it is a good idea to open them and ventilate the room now and then.

Care and Maintenance 24 Multi Type Air Conditioner Troubleshooting Check the following points before requesting repairs or service.... If the fault persists, please contact your dealer or service center. Case Explanation See page The air conditioner does not operate. The room has a peculiar odor. It seems that condensation is leaking from the air conditioner. Air conditioner does not operate for about 3 minutes after turning on. Does not cool or heat effectively. The air conditioner operation is noisy. Remote Controller display is faint, or no display at all. Crack sound is heard.

Check room temperature setting?

Check if circuit breaker is on?

Check that this is not a damp smell exuded by

the walls, carpet, furniture, or cloth items in the room.

Check the drain hose is connected tight or if

indoor unit is installed even.

This is the protector of the mechanism.

Wait about 3 minutes and operation will begin.

About 3 minutes delay is applied to protect

compressor from frequenty on/off.

Is the air filter dirty? See air filter cleaning

instructions.

Has the temperature been set correctly?

Are the indoor unit's air inlet or outlet vents

obstructed?

For a noise that sounds like water flowing.

-This is the sound of refrigerant flowing inside the air conditioner unit.

For a noise that sounds like the compressed

air releasing into atmosphere. -This is the sound of the dehumidifying water being processed inside the air conditioning unit.

Are the batteries depleted?

Are the batteries inserted in the opposite (+)

and (-) directions?

This sound is generated by the

expansion/constriction of the front panel, etc. due to changes of temperature. 18
