Panasonic’s infrared Remote Control with and
easy-to-read LCD Display, gives the user the
capability to adjust & set: temperature, sweep
(louver control), fan speeds, timer and more, for
complete automatic operation.
Wireless Remote Control
Convenient microprocessor control automatically
adjusts fan speed to High, Medium or Low.
According to room temperature to maintain a
comfortable airflow throughout the room.

Fan Operation
The air sweep function moves the louver up and
down in the air outlet, directing air in a “sweeping”
motion around the room and providing comfort in
every corner.

Louver can be manually set to the desired angle
by remote control.
Louver Control
After setting the temperature and functions
you desire, just relax. If the room temperature
is higher than the set temperature, cooling
operation begins. If the room temperature
is lower than the set temperature, heating
operation begins. During normal thermostat
cycle operation, cooling and heating operations
automatically change in accordance with set
temperature, time and room temperature
(Single Zone Heat Pump unit only).
Automatic Heating and
Cooling Changeover
The remote control unit allows you to set a
wide variety of timer-based operations. Such
functions include automatic ON/OFF with a timer
setting, same time ON/OFF every day, ON timer,
OFF timer and Combination timer.

Self-Diagnosing Function
The circulation volume of the refrigerant is
controlled by a pulse type electric control valve.
In order to attain optimum efficiency, when the
power is switched ON, the opening degree of the
electric control valve is controlled between 90
and 480 step.
Electric Refrigerant Control
Valve
By coupling compressor and fan operation,
intermittent operation can be precisely controlled
according to room temperature, so that air is
efficiently dehumidified.
Dry Mode
Right from the start, air is warm and comfortable.
The Hot Start Heating System prevents any cold
blasts at the beginning while the heat pump is
warming up (Heat pump unit only).

Condensers can take a beating from exposure to
salty air, rain and other corrosive factors.
Panasonic has extended the life of its
condensers with an original anti-rust coating.

Room Freeze Protection mode helps prevent
plumbing damage due to sub-Freezing
Temperature. This mode automatically turns on
the compressor for heat pump operation if the
room temperature falls to about 46°F.
*This function may not be performed if the unit is
not powered, or if the unit is unable to operate
such as in protection mode. Please consult with
the HVAC installers.

Inverter Technology
Heating is still possible even if the temperature drops as low as 0˚F for reliable heating in the
middle of the harshest winter.
Panasonic's inverter technology provides optimum power control and extremely efficient
operation by changing the power supply frequency. The result is speedy, flexible operation using
less electricity.
Innovative Inverter Technology
The inverter constantly adjusts the compressor rotation speed to provide optimum
performance at all times. After reaching the set temperature, an inverter air conditioner
continues to operate with minimum power to avoid unnecessary electricity consumption.
Conventional non-inverter air conditioners can only operate at a constant speed, switching the
compressor ON and OFF to maintain the set temperature, which wastes electricity.

Advantages of Inverter Control
Comparing inverter and non-inverter air conditioners to cars.
The accelerator can't be adjusted, so you spend a long
time to get comfortable, then soon become uncomfortable.
Keeps the temperature
comfortable all the time.
Adjusts the accelerator and
thus runs more economically.
Reaches the comfortable
zone quickly.

Runs at a fixed speed, so it takes
longer to reach the comfort zone.
