Clean the air filter and install it in the indoor unit.
(Refer to page 28 for cleaning it.)
2.
Check that the air inlet and outlet of the indoor/outdoor unit are not blocked.
3.
Check that the ground wire is connected correctly. It may be connect to the indoor unit side.
Do not overcool the room.
This is not good for your health
and wastes electricity.
Keep blinds or curtains
closed.
Do not let direct sunshine enter
the room when the air
conditioner is in operation.
Keep the room temperature
uniform.
Adjust the vertical and
horizontal airflow direction to
ensure a uniform temperature
in the room.
Make sure that the doors
and windows are shut tight.
Avoid opening doors and
windows as much as possible
to keep the cool air in the room.
Clean the air filter regularly.
Blockages in the air filter
reduce the airflow and lower
cooling and dehumidifying
effects. Clean at least once
every two weeks.
Ventilate the room
occasionally.
Since windows are kept closed,
it is a good idea to open them
and ventilate the room now and
then.
