Using the PEOPLE SENSOR
•
This sensor detects human movement using changes in the infrared
rays given off by people. When people are detected in the vicinity of
the PEOPLE SENSOR during operation, the air conditioner is
controlled so that the surrounding room temperature reaches the
temperature setting. Also, this eliminates wasteful operation when
people are not near the remote control unit for added energy
savings.
•
Room temperature control and airflow control are performed during
automatic operation. When you select a manual operation mode
(HEAT, DRY, COOL), room temperature control only is performed.
•
The People Sensor should be mounted vertically on a wall or other
surface in the secondary space area facing the direction where
people can be detected. Also, use the remote control unit to turn the
horizontal airflow control flaps on the indoor unit toward the main
space area.
NOTE
The above control is not performed when A/C Sensor appears on the
display of the remote control unit.
Room temperature control
and airflow control
•
Room temperature and airflow control are performed in the
following way when the room temperature reaches the setting
temperature and people are detected by the People sensor.
•
If there is a wide difference between the temperature detected by
the remote control unit and PEOPLE SENSOR, this room
temperature and airflow control may be unable to be performed.
Room temperature control
If there is a difference in temperature between the main space area and
secondary space area, the setting temperature is adjusted by up to
±
1 °C
so that the entire room is at a comfortable temperature. The setting
temperature display for the indoor unit does not change.
Airflow control
•
Automatic operation
The temperature difference between the main space area and
secondary space area is checked about once every 10 minutes.
Based on this, the swing time for the horizontal airflow control flaps
are adjusted so that the room reaches a uniform temperature.
(During automatic airflow control when heating, the flaps are raised
one step if necessary.)
•
Airflow control cannot be performed during manual operation.
•
To cancel airflow control, press
on the remote control unit. To
start airflow control again, press
on the remote control unit
so that operation stops, and then press this button again to restart
operation.
When the People sensor
does not detect people
Operation is concentrated
at the main space area
(main living space).
