Symptom
Cause
POWER indicator blinks before the unit is
switched on.
• This is a preliminary step in preparation for the
operation when the ON timer has been set.
• When ON Timer is set, the unit may start earlier (up
to 30 minutes) before the actual set time in order to
achieve the desired temperature on time.
POWER indicator blinks during HEAT mode
with no warm air supply (and flap is closed).
• The unit is in defrost mode (and AIR SWING is set to
AUTO).
TIMER indicator is always on.
• The timer setting repeats daily once set.
Operation is delayed a few minutes after
restarting.
• The delay is a protection to the unit’s compressor.
Indoor fan stops occasionally during heating
operation.
• To avoid unintended cooling effect.
Indoor fan stops occasionally during automatic
fan speed setting.
• This helps to remove the surrounding odour.
Airflow continues even after operation
has stopped.
• Extraction of remaining heat from the indoor unit
(maximum 30 seconds).
The room has a peculiar odour.
• This may be due to damp smell emitted by the wall,
carpet, furniture or clothing.
Cracking sound during operation.
• Changes of temperature caused the expansion/
contraction of the unit.
Water flowing sound during operation.
• Refrigerant flow inside the unit.
Mist emerges from indoor unit.
• Condensation effect due to cooling process.
Outdoor unit emits water/steam.
• Condensation or evaporation occurs on pipes.
Louder noise at outdoor unit during early
operation of i AUTO-X.
• The compressor and fan rotate at higher speed to boost
cooling performance during initial operation.
Discoloration of some plastic parts.
• Discoloration is subject to material types used in plastic
parts, accelerated when exposed to heat, sun light, UV
light or environmental factor.
Check the following before calling for servicing.
