—DRY mode of “I FEEL CONTROL”—
The system for dry operation uses the same refrigerant circuit as the cooling circuit.
The compressor and the indoor fan are controlled by the room temperature.
By such controls, indoor air flow amounts will be reduced in order to lower humidity without much room temperature
decrease.
1. Indoor fan speed control
Indoor fan operates at the set speed by FAN SPEED CONTROL button.
However, in AUTO fan operation, fan speed becomes Lo.
2. The operation of the compressor and indoor/ outdoor fan
Compressor operates by temperature control and time control.
Set temperature is controlled to fall 2°C from initial room temperature.
Indoor fan and outdoor fan operate in the same cycle as the compressor.
• When the room temperature is 23°C or over:
When the thermostat is ON, the compressor repeats 8 minutes ON and 3 minutes OFF.
When the thermostat is OFF, the compressor repeats 4 minutes OFF and 1 minute ON.
• When the room temperature is under 23°C.
When the thermostat is ON, the compressor repeats 2 minutes ON and 3 minutes OFF.
When the thermostat is OFF, the compressor repeats 4 minutes OFF and 1 minute ON.

Time control
When the three conditions as follows have been satisfied for 1 hour and 45 minutes, compressor stops for 3 minutes.
a. Compressor has been continuously operating.
b. Indoor fan speed is Lo or Me.
c. Room temperature is below 26°C.
When compressor stops, the accumulated time is cancelled and when compressor restarts, time counting starts from
the beginning.
Time counting also stops temporarily when the indoor fan speed becomes Hi or the room temperature exceeds 26°C.
However, when two of the above conditions (b. and c.) are satisfied again, Time accumulation is resumed.

3. Coil frost prevention
• The operation is as same as coil frost prevention during COOL mode of “I FEEL CONTROL”.
• Indoor fan operates at the set speed and the compressor stops for 5 minutes, because protection (Coil frost
prevention) has the priority.
However, when coil frost prevention works while the compressor is not operating, it’s speed becomes Lo.
