USING THE REMOTE CONTROL UNIT
HOW TO INSTALL BATTERIES
1.
Slide the cover in the direction indicated by the arrow and remove
it.
2.
Install two AAA alkaline batteries. Make sure the batteries point in
the direction marked in the battery compartment.
3.
Use a thin object such as the tip of a pen to press the ACL button.
• The batteries last about six months, depending on how much
you use the remote control unit. Replace the batteries when
the remote control unit’s display fails to light, or when the
remote control cannot be used to change the air conditioner’s
settings.
• Use two fresh leak-proof type-AAA alkaline batteries.
• In replacing batteries, follow the instructions as mentioned in
the sub-section “HOW TO INSTALL BATTERIES”.
• If you do not use the remote control unit more than 1 month,
take out the batteries.
• Dispose of the used batteries at the designated location in
compliance with the applicable local ordinances.
HOW TO USE THE REMOTE CONTROL UNIT
When using the remote control unit, always point the unit’s
transmitter head directly at the air conditioner’s receiver.
REMOTE CONTROL UNIT INSTALLATION
POSITION
The remote control unit may be operated either from a non-fixed
position or from a wall-mounted position. To ensure that the air
conditioner operates correctly, DO NOT install the remote control
unit in the following places:
DO NOT
• In direct sunlight
• Behind a curtain or other places where it is covered
• More than 26 ft.(8 m) away from the air conditioner
• In the path of the air conditioner’s airstream
• Where it may become extremely hot or cold
• Where it may be subject to electrical or magnetic noise
• Where there is an obstacle between the remote control unit and air
conditioner (since a check signal is sent from the remote control
unit every 5 minutes)
MOUNTING THE REMOTE CONTROL UNIT
Before mounting the remote control unit, press the ON/OFF
operation button at the mounting location to make sure that the air
conditioner operates from that location. The indoor unit should make
a beeping sound to indicate that it has received the signal.
To take out the remote control unit, pull it forward.
WHEN HOLDING THE REMOTE CONTROL UNIT
• When using the remote control unit and during air conditioner
operation, the transmitter on the remote control unit should be
pointed towards the receiver on the indoor unit.
• Make sure that there are no objects between the remote control
unit and receiver which could block the signal.
