							9.2.6. Cooling Operation Time Diagram
9.3. Powerful Operation
 • Purpose of this operation is to obtain the setting temperature quickly.
 • When the Powerful is set during Cooling Operation, the set temperature will be automatically decreased 3°C against the present
setting temperature (Lowest limit temperature: 16°C).
 • This operation automatically will be running under Super High Fan Speed.
 • Sound emitted by the unit will be increased during Powerful operation due to increased of air volume.
 • Powerful will operate for 15 minutes only, afterthat it will shift back to previous operation mode.
 • Powerful will stop if:-
 − Powerful button/Pad is pressed again.
 − Powerful operation has run for 15 minutes.
 − Stopped by ON/OFF switch.
 − Timer OFF activates.
9.4. Random Auto Restart Control
 • If there is a power failure, operation will be automatically restarted after 3 to 4 minutes when the power is resumed.
It will start with previous operation mode and airflow direction (TimeDelay Safety Control is valid)as the operation was not
stopped by Remote Control or Main Unit (Touch Control Panel).
 • Restart time is decided randomly with 5 parameters:-
 − Intake air temperature.
 − Setting temperature.
 − Fan speed.
 − Air Swing blade position.
 − Indoor heat exchanger temperature.
 • Auto Restart Control is not available when Timer is set.
 • If Powerful operation is set during power failure, Powerful operation will not start automatically along with previous operation
mode after power resume.
 • This control can be omitted by open the circuit JX1.

11 Installation Instructions
11.1. Choosing the Installation Location
 • When installing, use the nearest power outlet. Make sure the power outlet is easy to reach so you can quickly disconnect your
air conditioner in case of emergency.
 • Ensure that the air conditioner is well supported, securely fastened, easily reachable and not obstructed.
 • Avoid locations with: saltyor sulphurous air, draughts, dampness and flammable gas.
 • If you install the drainagesystem, be sure to channel thecondensed water to a suitable location.
 • Covers, obstructions and unsteady supportmay cause excessive operating noise and vibration.
 • The rear end of the air conditioner is splash proof. You need not shield or cover it.
11.2. Preparation Before Installation
11.2.1. Dimension
 • There should not be any obstacles surrounding the unit.
 • Prepare an installation holeslightly bigger than the cabinet size.
 • Left and right sides of the unit should be at least 15 cmaway fromthe wall.
11.3. Installation Procedures
18 
						

							 4. Slide the chassis into the cabinet.
 5. Reinstall the cabinet screws.
Secure the cabinet to chassis by using screws (from rear
cabinet). Lock the chassis to the cabinet reusing the
chassis locking bracket and screw.
Depending upon the location of the AC outlet, route the AC
cord to either the left or right side while installing the front
grille.
 6. Attach the front grille to the cabinet and fasten it with screw.

supported by the stopper.
 2. Tilt up and pull out the air filter by the holder.
11.6. Electric Work
 • Always use atthe rated voltage and with a specific air
conditioning circuit.
 • Some installation locations may require the installation of a
short-circuit breaker.
 • A 16 Ampere time delay fuseor circuit breaker is required.
 • Nominal cross sectional area of power supply wire must be
3 core x 1.5 mm
2or above.
 • The power supply must be from an independent circuit.
 • All electrical installations mustbe made in accordance with
local wiring and safety regulations wherever applicable.
 • There must be a double pole switch with a minimum of 3
mm contact gap in the fixed installation circuit.
 • Please engage an authorized dealer or specialist for the
installation work.
11.7. Condensed Water Drainage
This air conditioner employs a “Slinger-Up System” which is
designed to splash the condensed water on the condenser coil
for maximum cooling efficiency,thus producing a splashing
sound. If the splashing sound annoysyou, you canprovide an
outside drainage by using thefollowing procedurewhich may,
however, cause a small loss of performance.
Note:
If the unit is installed at coastal area, drainage of condensed
water is recommended to prevent the condenser being
corroded easily.
 1. Remove the rubber plug and slide the chassis out from the
cabinet.
 2. Install the drain pan.
Install the drain pan at the right corner of the cabinet using
2 screws.
 3. Connect a drain hose. Fit the drain hose to the drain pan.
NOTE
Drain hose or tubing can be purchased locally to satisfy
your particular needs.
