technicians in accordance with the Installation Instructions provided with the unit.
 Before installation, check that the voltage of the electric supply in your home or office is the same 
as the voltage shown on the nameplate.
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Read these Operating Instructions carefully before using this air conditioner. If you still 
have any difficulties or problems, consult your dealer for help.
• This air conditioner is designed to give you comfortable room conditions. Use this only for 
its intended purpose as described in these Operating Instructions. • Do not install this air conditioner where there are fumes or flammable gases, or in an 
extremely humid space such as a greenhouse.
• Do not install the air conditioner where excessively high heat-generating objects 
are placed.
Avoid:To protect the air conditioner from heavy corrosion, avoid installing the outdoor unit where 
salty sea water can splash directly onto it or in sulphurous air near a spa.
 All wiring must conform to the local electrical codes. Consult your dealer or a qualified 
electrician for details.
 It is strongly recommended to be installed with Earth Leakage Circuit Breaker (ELCB) or 
Residual Current Device (RCD) to prevent electric shock or fire.
 Each unit must be properly grounded with a ground (or earth) wire or through the supply 
wiring.
 Wiring must be done by a qualified electrician.
To warm up the system, the power mains must be turned on at least five (5) hours 
before operation. Leave the power mains ON unless you will not be using this 
appliance for an extended period.
Pull off the power plug from a receptacle, or switch off the breaker, or switch off the power 
disconnecting mean to isolate the air conditioner from the main power supply when not in use 
for a long time.

and injury etc.
• Never touch the unit with wet hands.
• Never use or store gasoline or other flammable vapor or liquid near the air 
conditioner — it is very dangerous.
• Do not use this appliance in a potentially explosive atmosphere.
• This air conditioner has no ventilator for intaking fresh air from outdoors. You must 
open doors or windows frequently when you use gas or oil heating appliances in 
the same room, which consume a lot of oxygen from the air. Otherwise there is a 
risk of suffocation in an extreme case.
• To prevent possible hazards from insulation failure, the unit must be 
grounded.
• Do not clean inside the indoor and outdoor units by users. Engage 
authorized dealer or specialist for cleaning.
• In case of malfunction of this appliance, do not repair by yourself. Contact to the 
sales dealer or service dealer for a repair.
• Check for a leaking refrigerant! Refrigerant gas may produce a toxic gas if it comes 
in contact with fire.

SPECIAL REMARKS
‘‘DRY’’ Operation 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 (15°C) or less.
Heating Performance Since this air conditioner utilizes outside air for heating, its heating performance 
deteriorates as outside temperature decreases. (Due to heat pump system)
 It will take some time until the room becomes warmer after heating operation started. (Due 
to hot air circulation system in order to heat a whole room)
Defrosting This appliance may start defrosting operation to melt frost form in the outdoor unit during 
long hour heating operation mode.
The indoor unit fan will stop for about 5 to 10 minutes at this time.
Heating StandbyThe remote controller shows “ ” (Heating standby) on the display in the following mode and 
the indoor unit fan may be controlled.
 When operation started (Indoor unit fan stops for maximum 6 minutes.)
 When Thermostat activated
 When defrosting (Indoor unit fan stops.)
Remote Control SensorThe temperature sensor in the indoor unit normally senses the room temperature and can also 
sense the ambient temperature of the remote controller.
For the details, consult the shop you purchased.
Should the power failure
occurs while the
unit is runningWhen the unit automatically resumes operation after temporary power failure, it uses the same 
settings before the power was cut off.

CARE AND CLEANING
Do not attempt to clean inside the unit by yourself.
Refer to the section “Care and Cleaning” in the Installation Instructions.
1. For safety, be sure to turn the air conditioner off and also to disconnect the power 
before cleaning.
2. Do not pour water on the indoor unit to clean it. This will damage the internal 
components and cause an electric shock hazard.
Air intake and outlet side
(Indoor unit)Clean the air intake and outlet side of the indoor unit with a vacuum cleaner brush, or wipe 
them with a clean soft cloth.
If these parts are stained, use a clean cloth moistened with a mild liquid detergent. When 
cleaning the air outlet side, be careful not to force the vanes out of place.
1. Never use solvents or harsh chemicals when cleaning the indoor unit. Do not wipe 
plastic parts using very hot water.
2. Some metal edges and the fins are sharp and may cause injury if handled 
improperly; be especially careful when you clean these parts.
3. The internal coil and other components of the outdoor unit must be cleaned every 
year. Consult your dealer or service center.
Air filterThe air filter collects dust and other particles from the air and should be cleaned at regular 
intervals when the filter indication ( ) on the display of the remote controller (wired type) 
shows that the filter needs cleaning. If the filter gets blocked, the efficiency of the air conditioner 
drops greatly.
The frequency with which the filter should be cleaned depends on the environment in which the 
unit is used.
Wipe with a soft cloth. 
(If it is very dirty, use 
a cloth moistened with 
water.)

TROUBLESHOOTING
If your air conditioner does not work properly, first check the following points before requesting service. If it still does not work properly, 
contact your dealer or a service center.
INDOOR UNIT
Symptom Cause
Noise Sound like streaming water during 
operation or after operation Sound of refrigerant liquid flowing inside unit
 Sound of drainage water through drain pipe
Cracking noise during operation or 
when operation stops.Cracking sound due to temperature changes of parts
Odor Discharged air is smelled during 
operation.Indoor odor components, cigarette odor and cosmetic odor accumurated in 
the air conditioner and its air is discharged.
Unit inside is dusty. Consult your dealer.
Dewdrop Dewdrop gets accumurated near air 
discharge during operationIndoor moisture is cooled by cool wind and accumulated by dewdrop.
Fog Fog occurs during operation in cooling 
mode.
(Places where large amounts of oil 
mist exist at restaurants.) Cleaning is necessary because unit inside (heat exchanger) is dirty. 
Consult your dealer as technical engineering is required.
 During defrost operation
Fan is rotating for a while even though operation 
stops. Fan rotating makes operation smoothly.
 Fan may sometimes rotate because of drying heat exchanger due to 
settings.
Wind-direction changes while operating.
Wind-direction setting cannot be made.
Wind-direction cannot be changed. When air discharge temperature is low or during defrost operation, 
horizontal wind flow is made automatically.
 Flap position is occasionally set up individually.
When wind-direction is changed, flap operates 
several times and stops at designated position.When wind-direction is changed, flap operates after searching for standard 
position.
Dust Dust accumulation inside indoor unit is discharged.
At the initial high-speed operation, the fan may 
sometimes rotate faster (for 3 to 30 minutes) than 
the setting speed.This is for operation check in order to confirm whether the fan motor rotation is 
within use range.
