5.  HIGH POWER Mode
HIGH POWER mode can be used to increase the output of the 
indoor unit for all operation modes.
Press the HIGH POWER button while unit is operating.
The   mark appears in the display. 
To cancel, press HIGH POWER button again.
• When the HIGH POWER button is pressed, the unit operates at 
maximum output for 30 minutes, regardless of the desired 
temperature. The fan speed is 1 step above “High”.
Depending on the operating conditions, the fan speed may be 
increased by a small amount only.
SPECIAL REMARKS
How it works?
• Once the room temperature reaches the level that was set, the 
unit’s operation frequency is changed automatically.
• During DRY operation, the fan speed automatically runs at lower 
speed for providing a comfortable breeze.
• ‘‘DRY’’ operation is not possible if the indoor temperature is 59 °F 
or less.
• Sometimes the indoor unit may not get to the set fan speed such as 
LOW under cool operation at very low outdoor temperatures due to 
the indoor unit being protected from ice or frost when combined with 
the outdoor unit for Low Ambient Cooling models.
• In the event of power failure, the unit will stop. When the power is 
resumed, the unit will restart automatically in approximately 
5 minutes by the remote controller.
Clicking sound is heard from the air conditioner
• In cooling operation, any plastic parts may shrink due to a sudden 
temperature change. In this event, a clicking sound may occur. This 
is normal, and the sound will soon disappear.
• The remote controller sends the setting condition to the air 
conditioner regularly at five minute intervals.
SETTING THE TIMER
In the descriptions below, the following settings are used for the 
temperature and time indicator selector button on the bottom front 
section of the remote controller.

When the night setback mode is selected, the air conditioner 
automatically raises the temperature setting 2 °F when 30 minutes 
have passed after the selection was made, and then another 2 °F 
after another 30 minutes have passed, regardless of the indoor 
temperature when night setback was selected. This enables you 
to save energy without sacrificing comfort. This function is 
convenient when gentle cooling is needed.

TIPS FOR ENERGY SAVING
Avoid
• Do not block neither the air intake nor the air outlet. It may 
cause less performance, and may leads to malfunctions.
• Do not let direct sunlight into the room. Use sunshades, blinds or 
curtains. If the walls and ceiling of the room are warmed by the 
sun, it will take longer to cool the room.
Do
• Always try to keep the air filter clean. (Refer to “CARE AND 
CLEANING”.) A clogged filter will impair the performance of the 
unit.
• To prevent conditioned air from escaping, keep windows, doors and 
any other openings closed.
ADJUSTING THE AIRFLOW 
DIRECTION
The vertical airflow can be adjusted by moving the flap with the 
remote controller. Do not move the flap with your hands. Confirm that 
the remote controller has been turned on. Use the FLAP button to 
set either the sweep function or one of the six airflow direction 
settings.
The flap automatically closes when the unit is off.
• Use the FLAP button on the remote controller to adjust the 
position of the flap. If you move the flap by hand, the flap 
position according to the remote controller and the actual 
flap position may no longer match. If this should happen, 
shut off the unit, wait for the flap to close, and then turn on 
the unit again; the flap position will now be normal again.
• Do not have the flap pointed down during cooling operation. 
Condensation may begin to form around the air vent and drip 
down.
NOTE
SWEEP
A. Sweep function 
The flap starts moving 
up and down to deliver 
air over the sweep 
range.
B. Setting the airflow manually
Referring to the above 
illustration, use the 
FLAP button to set the 
airflow direction within 
the range used during 
the cooling or 
dehumidifying operation.
C. Auto flap function 
The flap is set to 
the 
recommended 
position.

marks on the grill) to release the filter, and then, lift and pull the 
filter up and out using the tabs to remove it.
4.Use a vacuum cleaner to remove light dust. If there is sticky dust 
on the filter, wash the filter in lukewarm, soapy water, rinse it in 
clean water, and dry it.
5.Insert the filter correctly again inside the grille, close the grille 
letting the latches slide towards the outside and fix again the 
latch.
How to remove the air intake grille
1.
Open the air intake grille.
2.Detach the safety cord from the frame (remember to attach it 
again after cleaning or maintenance).
3.Hold on the air intake grille and pull it towards you to detach the 
two air intake grille hinges.
