MOVEMENT OF THE HORIZONTAL BLADE
For the following conditions, micro computer con-
trols the airflow direction so it may be different from
the display.
NOTE (In case of FUQ)
•
When group control is performed on the simulta-
neous operation system (twin and triple), airflow
direction cannot be individually set on the slave
units.
We recommend using the airflow in the position
listed above when fixing the airflow direction.

Air blows in the

When operating
continuously at
downward air-

The airflow direc-

Observe the following precautions to ensure the air
conditioner operates.
•
Prevent direct sunlight from the window by using
curtains or blinds during the COOLING OPERA-
TION.
•
Keep doors and windows closed. If the doors and
windows remain open, room air will flow out and
decrease the effect of cooling and heating.
•
Never place objects near the air inlet and the air
outlet of the air conditioner. It may decrease the
effect or stop the operation.
•
Adjust the room temperature properly for a com-
fortable environment. Avoid excessive heating or
cooling.
Not doing so wastes electricity.
•
When the display shows “
” or “Time to clean
filter”, ask a qualified service person to clean the
filters.
(Refer to
“8. MAINTENANCE”
on page 9.)
Operating the indoor unit with stained air filter may
decrease capacity or cause malfunction.
•
Install TVs, radios, and stereos 1 m or more away
from the indoor unit and remote controller.
Images may become fuzzy and noise may be
generated.
•
Turn off the power circuit breaker when it is not in
use for a long period. When the power circuit
breaker is turned on, small amount of power is
consumed even if the air conditioner is not in
operation. (*1)
Turn off the power circuit breaker for saving
energy. When reoperating, turn on the power cir-
cuit breaker 6 hours before operation for smooth
running.
(Refer to
“8. MAINTENANCE”
on page 9.) (*2)
*1 The consumed power while the outdoor unit is
not in operation depends on the model.
*2 The setting before the power circuit breaker is
cut off is stored. (The timer setting is cleared.)
•
Fully use the function of airflow direction adjust.
Cold air gathers on the floor, and warm air gathers
under the ceiling.
Set the air direction to horizontal during the
COOLING or PROGRAM DRY OPERATION, and
set it downwards during the HEATING OPERA-
TION.
Do not let the air blow directly to a person.
•
Use the TIMER OPERATION effectively.
It takes some time until the indoor temperature
reaches the set temperature. It is advisable to
start operation in advance using the TIMER
OPERATION.
