8-2. DRY ( ) OPERATION
(1) Press OPERATE/STOP (ON/OFF) button.
OPERATION INDICATOR lamp of the indoor unit turns ON with a beep tone.
(2) Select DRY mode with OPERATION SELECT button.
(3) The set temperature is determined from the initial room temperature.
1. Coil frost prevention
Coil frost prevention works the same way as that in COOL mode. (8-1.1.)
2. Low outside temperature operation
Low outside temperature operation works the same way as that in COOL mode. (8-1.2.)
8-3. HEAT ( ) OPERATION
(1) Press OPERATE/STOP (ON/OFF) button.
OPERATION INDICATOR lamp of the indoor unit turns ON with a beep tone.
(2) Select HEAT mode with OPERATION SELECT button.
(3) Press TEMPERATURE buttons (TOO WARM or TOO COOL button) to select the desired temperature.
The setting range is 61 ~ 88°F (16 ~ 31°C).
1. Cold air prevention control
When the compressor is not operating or is starting, and the temperature of indoor heat exchanger and/or the room tem-
perature is low or when defrosting is being done, the indoor fan will stop or rotate in Very Low speed.
2. High pressure protection
The compressor operational frequency is controlled by the temperature of the indoor heat exchanger to prevent the con-
densing pressure from increasing excessively.
When the temperature of indoor heat exchanger becomes too high, the high pressure protection works.
The indoor fan operates following the cold air prevention control. This mode continues until the temperature of indoor heat
exchanger falls.
3. Defrosting
Defrosting starts when the temperature of outdoor heat exchanger becomes too low.
The compressor stops once, the indoor/outdoor fans stop, the 4-way valve reverses and the compressor re-starts.
This mode continues until the temperature of outdoor heat exchanger rises or the fixed time passes.
(3) Positioning
To confirm the standard position, the vane moves until it touches the vane stopper. Then the vane is set to the selected
angle.
Confirming of standard position is performed in the following cases:
(a) When the operation starts or finishes (including timer operation).
(b) When the test run starts.
(4) VANE AUTO ( ) mode
In VANE AUTO mode, the microprocessor automatically determines the vane angle to make the optimum room tempera-
ture distribution.
8-4. AUTO VANE OPERATION
1. Horizontal vane
(1) Vane motor drive
These models are equipped with a stepping motor for the horizontal vane. The rotating direction, speed, and angle of
the motor are controlled by pulse signals (approximately 12 V) transmitted from indoor microprocessor.
(2) The horizontal vane angle and mode change as follows by pressing VANE CONTROL button.
