3. Troubleshooting
Issue
Possible Causes
Unit does not turn on when
pressing ON/OFF button
The unit has a 3-minute protection feature that prevents the unit from overloading.
The unit cannot be restarted within three minutes of being turned off.
The unit changes from
COOL/HEAT mode to FAN
mode
The unit may change its setting to prevent frost from forming on the unit. Once the
temperature increases, the unit will start operating in the previously selected mode
again.
The set temperature has been reached, at which point the unit turns off the
compressor. The unit will continue operating when the temperature fluctuates again.
The indoor unit emits white
mist
In humid regions, a large temperature difference between the room's air and the
conditioned air can cause white mist.
Both the indoor and
outdoor units emit white
mist
When the unit restarts in HEAT mode after defrosting, white mist may be emitted
due to moisture generated from the defrosting process.
La unidad interior hace
ruidos extraños
A rushing air sound may occur when the louver resets its position.
A squeaking sound may occur after running the unit in HEAT mode due to expansion
and contraction of the unit's plastic parts.
Both the indoor unit and
outdoor unit make noises
Durante el funcionamiento, se oye un siseo: este sonido corresponde al refrigerante
que circula por la unidad interior y la unidad exterior.
Low hissing sound when the system starts, has just stopped running, or is defrosting:
This noise is normal and is caused by the refrigerant gas stopping or changing
direction.
Squeaking sound: Normal expansion and contraction of plastic and metal parts
caused by temperature changes during operation can cause squeaking noises.
