The following conditions do not denote equipment
malfunctions
Unit does not operate
The unit will not operate if it is turned on immediately
after it is turned off. The unit will not operate immediately
after the mode is changed. This is to protect the internal
mechanisms. Wait 3 minutes before operating the unit.
Unit does not send out warm air
The unit is preheating or de-icing.
Odours
Carpet and furniture odors that entered into the unit and the
air conditioner’s inner component odors at the early stage of
installation may be sent out from the unit.
Cracking noise
The unit may produce a cracking noise. This sound
is generated by the friction of the front panel and other
components expanding or contracting due to
temperature change.
A low buzzing noise is emitted
This is a sound emitted when the unit is generating
Plasmacluster ions.
Swishing noise
The soft, swishing noise is the sound of the refrigerant
flowing inside the unit.
Water vapour
• In the COOL and DRY operation, water vapour
can sometimes be seen at the air outlet due to the
difference between the room air temperature and the air
discharged by the unit.
• In the HEAT operation, water vapour may flow out of the
outdoor unit during de-icing.
The outdoor unit does not stop
After stopping the operation, the outdoor unit will rotate
its’ fan for about a minute to cool down the unit.
Odour emitted from the plasmacluster air outlet
This is the smell of ozone generated from the Plasmacluster
Ion generator. The ozone concentration is very small, posing
no adverse effect to your health. The ozone discharged into
the air rapidly decomposes, and its density in the room will
not increase.
Before calling for service
If the unit appears to be malfunctioning, check the following
points before calling for service.
If the unit fails to operate
Check to see if the circuit breaker has tripped or the fuse
has blown.
If the unit fails to cool (or heat) the room effectively
Check the filters. If dirty, clean them.
Check the outdoor unit to make sure nothing is blocking the
air inlet or outlet.
Check that the temperature is on a suitable setting.
Make sure windows and doors are closed tightly.
A large number of people in the room can prevent the unit
from achieving the desired temperature.
Check whether any heat-generating appliances are
operating in the room.
If the unit fails to receive the remote control signal
Check whether the remote control batteries are flat or weak.
Try to send the signal again with the remote control pointed
properly towards the unit’s signal receiver window.
Check whether the remote control batteries are installed
with the polarities properly aligned.
Please call for service when OPERATION lamp, TIMER lamp
or PLASMACLUSTER lamp on the indicator panel blink.
