NAMES AND FUNCTIONS OF REMOTE CONTROL UNIT

REMOTE CONTROLLER
This controls the operation of the indoor unit. Signal range to reach indoor unit is about 7 meters. If 
inverter lamp is used, the range of control may be shorter.
This unit can be fi xed on a wall using the fi xture provided. Before fi xing it, make sure the indoor unit 
can be controlled from the remote controller.

  Transmission sign

 

The transmission sign blinks when a signal is sent.

  Display

 

This indicates the room temperature selected, timer status, function 
and intensity of circulation selected.

  CIRCULATION button

 

Use this button to set air circulation in the room or start operation.

  DEHUMIDIFYING button

 

Use this button to reduce humidity in the room or start operation.

  COOLING button

 

Use this button to set cooling mode in the room or start operation.

  RESET button

  STOP button

 

Press this button to stop operation only.

  SLEEP button

 

Use this button to set the sleep timer.

  FAN SPEED selector

  This determines the fan speed. Each time you press this button, 

  

the intensity of circulation will change from    (AUTO) to    (HI) 

           

to    (MED) to    (LOW) 

  AUTO SWING button

 

Controls the angle of the horizontal air defl ector.

  TEMPERATURE button

  Use this button to raise or lower the temperature setting. (Keep 

pressed, and the value will change more quickly.)

  OFF-TIMER button   Select the turn OFF time.

  ON-TIMER button   Select the turn ON time.

Precautions for Use

  Do not put the remote controller in the following places.

 

  In direct sunlight.

 

  In the vicinity of a heater.

  Handle the remote controller carefully. Do not drop it on the 

fl oor, and protect it from water.

  Once the outdoor unit stops, it will not restart for about 3 

minutes (unless you turn the power switch off and on or unplug 
the power cord and plug it in again).

 

This is to protect the device and does not indicate a failure.
