Operation without the Remote 
Control Unit

Care and Cleaning

INDOOR UNIT

If you have lost the remote control unit or it has trouble, follow the steps 
below.

When the air conditioner is not running

Each time the OPERATION button is pressed, the type of operation 
conducted is indicated by the changing color of the OPERATION lamp. Press 
the button and select the lamp color that suits your preference for operation.

The temperature is set to the room temperature minus 2°C during the cooling 
operation and to the room temperature plus 2°C during the heating operation, 
and the fan speed and flap are set to Auto.

1. For safety, be sure to turn the air conditioner off and also to 

disconnect the power before cleaning.

2. Do not pour water on the indoor unit to clean it. This will damage the 

internal components and cause an electric shock hazard.

Casing and Grille (Indoor Unit)

Clean the casing and grille of the indoor unit with a vacuum cleaner brush, or 
wipe them with a clean, soft cloth.

If these parts are stained, use a clean cloth moistened with a mild liquid 
detergent. When cleaning the grille, be careful not to force the vanes out of 
place.

1. Never use solvents, or harsh chemicals when cleaning the indoor 

unit. Do not wipe the plastic casing using very hot water. 

2. Some metal edges and the fins are sharp and may cause injury if 

handled improperly; be especially careful when you clean these 
parts.

3. The internal coil and other components of the outdoor unit must be 

cleaned every year. Consult your dealer or service center.
