CLEANING AND CARE
CAUTION
●
Before cleaning the unit, be sure to stop the unit and disconnect the
power supply.
●
Do not stand on an unstable platform when cleaning.
●
When removing and replacing the air
fi
lters, be sure not to touch the
heat exchanger, as personal injury may result.
●
Do not clean the inside of the unit by yourself. To clean the inside,
always consult authorized service personnel.
●
When cleaning the unit’s body, do not use water hotter than 40 °C,
harsh abrasive cleansers, or volatile agents like benzene or thinner.
●
If dirt is allowed to accumulate on the air
fi
lter, air
fl
ow will be reduced,
lowering operating ef
fi
ciency and increasing noise.
During periods of normal use, the air
fi
lter should be cleaned every 2
weeks.

Remove dust with a vacuum cleaner or by washing. After washing, be
sure to allow it to dry thoroughly in a shady place before reinstalling.
When not using for an extended period
Leave the breaker on for at least 12 hours before starting operation
when it is to be used again.
TROUBLESHOOTING
The following conditions are not breakdowns or op-
eration failures.
Doesn’t operate immediately:
●
If the unit is stopped and then immediately started again, the com-
pressor will not operate for about 3 minutes, in order to prevent fuse
blowouts.
●
Whenever the electrical breaker is turned off then on again, the protec-
tion circuit will operate for about 3 minutes, preventing unit operation
during that period.
Air
fl
ow is weak or stops:
●
When Heating operation is started, indoor unit’s fan may temporarily
stop, to allow internal parts to warm up.
●
During Heating operation, if the room temperature rises above the
thermostat setting, the outdoor unit will stop, and the indoor unit’s fan
will stop. If you wish to warm the room further, set the thermostat for a
higher setting.
●
During oil recovery operation, the air
fl
ow may stop for approximately
10 minutes. (See page 2)
●
During Heating operation, the unit will temporarily stop operation (be-
tween 4 and 15 minutes) as the Automatic Defrosting mode operates.
(See page 2)
●
The fan may operate at low speed during Dry operation or when the
unit is monitoring the room’s temperature.
●
In the monitor AUTO operation, the fan will operate at low speed.
Flashing lamps:
(Limited to only when receiver unit is connected)
●
The Operation indicator lamp (green)
fl
ashes:
An oil recovery operation is being performed. (See page 2)
●
The Operation indicator lamp (green)
fl
ashes:
An automatic defrosting operation is being performed. (See page 2)
●
The Operation indicator lamp (green) and Timer indicator lamp (or-
ange) are
fl
ashing alternately:
It has recovered from a power outage.
●
The Operation indicator lamp (green) and Timer indicator lamp (or-
ange) are
fl
ashing simultaneously:
It is operating in trial operation mode. Ask a manager as there may be
maintenance being conducted.
●
The Operation indicator lamp (green) lights up and the Timer indicator
lamp (orange)
fl
ashes:
This is the standby state. (See page 2)
Noise is heard:
●
In the following conditions there are sounds of water
fl
owing from the
indoor unit and the operation sound becomes loud. These are the
sounds of the
fl
owing of refrigerant.
When operation starts
When oil recovery operation
fi
nishes
When automatic defrosting operation
fi
nishes
●
During operation, a slight squeaking sound may be heard. This is the
result of minute expansion and contraction of the panel due to tem-
perature changes.
●
During Heating operation, a sizzling sound may be heard occasionally.
This sound is produced by the Automatic Defrosting operation. (See
page 2)
Smells:
●
Some smell may be emitted from the indoor unit. This smell is the
result of room smells (furniture, tobacco, etc.) which have been taken
into the air conditioner.
Fog comes out of the indoor unit:
●
During Cooling operation, a thin mist may be seen emitted from the
indoor unit. This results from the sudden Cooling of room air by the air
emitted from the air conditioner, resulting in condensation and misting.
Steam comes out of the indoor unit:
●
During Heating operation, the outdoor unit’s fan may stop, and steam
may be seen rising from the unit. This is due to the Automatic Defrost-
ing operation. (See page 2)
Water is produced from the outdoor unit:
●
During Heating operation, water may be produced from the outdoor
unit due to the Automatic Defrosting operation.
The following conditions may not be breakdowns so
check again.
Doesn’t operate at all:
●
Has there been a power failure?
●
Has a fuse blown out, or a circuit breaker been tripped?
●
Is the main power switch set to the OFF position?
●
Are you trying to engage in an operation different from the priority
state? (See page 2)
●
Is it in standby state? (See page 2)
The operation mode cannot be changed:
●
Are you trying to change to an operation different from the priority
conditions? (See page 2)
Poor Cooling (or Heating) performance:
●
Did you adjust the room temperature settings (thermostat) correctly?
●
Is the air
fi
lter dirty? (See page 3)
●
Are the air conditioner’s inlet port or outlet port blocked?
●
Is there a window or door open?
●
In the case of Cooling operation, is a window allowing bright sunlight to
enter? (Close the curtains.)
●
In the case of Cooling operation, are there heating apparatus and com-
puters inside the room, or are there too many people in the room?
●
Is the fan speed set to low?
Set the temperature lower than the room temperature and use it:
●
Temperature does not fall down well. Temperature may not fall down
depending on the room conditions. (While high humidity or the room
temperature is high.) (See page 2)
In the following situations stop operation immediately
and get in touch with authorized service personnel.
●
The problem cannot be solved even when the troubleshooting checks
have been performed.
●
The FILTER indicator lamp (red) is
fl
ashing very fast (when receiver
unit is connected).
●
The wired remote controller or simple remote controller indicate Er
(when connected).
●
It has burning smell.
●
For details on marking the Flashing lamps, please refer to the Manual
of “IR Receiver Unit” or “Wired Remote Controller”.
