Defrosting in DRY mode
The operational frequency of the compressor is controlled based on the temperature of the indoor coil thermistor (RT12).
The indoor fan maintains the actual speed of the moment. However, it changes to Lo speed when the compressor stops.
Temperature of indoor coil thermistor:RT12
approx. 8°C or above
approx. 6°C to 8°C
approx. 3°C to 6°C
approx. 3°C or below

Compressor is turned OFF for 5 minutes when left temperature
continues for 5 minutes or more.
1. Indoor fan speed control
(1) Indoor fan operates at the set speed by FAN SPEED CONTROL button.
In Auto the fan speed is as follows.
Set temperature minus room temperature: 2 degrees or more················································· Hi
Set temperature minus room temperature: Between 1 and 2 degrees ····································· Me
Set temperature minus room temperature: less than 1 degree················································· Lo
1 deg. 1.7 deg.
2 deg. 4 deg.

(2) Cold air prevention control
1
When the compressor is not operating,
(
1
) if the temperature of indoor coil thermistor RT12 is 18°C or less, the fan stops.
(
2
) if the temperature of indoor coil thermistor RT12 is more than 18°C, the fan operates at VLo.
2
When the compressor is operating,
(
1
) if the temperature of RT12 is 22°C or more, the fan operates at set speed.
(
2
) if the temperature of RT12 is less than 22°C and
(
1
) if the temperature of room temperature thermistor RT11 is 15°C or less, the fan stops.
(
2
) if the temperature of room temperature thermistor RT11 is more than 15°C, the fan operates at VLo.
NOTE : At initial and after defrosting, when the RT12 is from 18
:
to 22
:
, Cold Air Prevention control works.
(3) Warm air control.
When the following any condition of
1
(a. ~ d.) and the condition of
2
are satisfied at the same time, warm air control
works.
1
a.) when the operation mode has been changed to HEAT mode
b.) when cold air prevention has been released
c.) when defrosting has been finished
d.) when the compressor starts in HEAT mode
2
When the temperature of indoor coil thermistor RT12 is less than 37°C.
When warm air control works, the fan speed changes as follows to blow out warm air gradually.
Gradation of fan speed in initial
The upper limit of the fan speed in MANUAL is the set speed.
The upper limit of the fan speed in AUTO is the speed decided by indoor fan speed control.(Refer to 8-4.1.(1).)
When the temperature of RT12 has been 37°C or more, or when the set speed has been changed, this control is
released and the fan speed is the set speed.
(4) Flow soft control
When the thermostat (compressor) is off, the indoor fan operates as follows.

NOTE : When the thermostat(compressor) turns on, the fan will operate
at set speed. But until cold air prevention and warm air control
is released, the fan speed follow them.
