6. HIGH POWER Mode
HIGH POWER mode can be used to increase the output of the
indoor unit for all operation modes except automatic operation.
Press the HIGH POWER button while the unit is operating.
The
mark appears in the display.
To cancel, press HIGH POWER button again.
• When the HIGH POWER button is pressed, the unit operates at
maximum output for 30 minutes, regardless of the desired
temperature. The fan speed is 1 step above “High”.
• HIGH POWER Mode cannot be used when the operation mode
is in Automatic Operation.
• QUIET Mode and HIGH POWER Mode cannot be used at the
same time.
• Pressing the MODE selector button cancels HIGH POWER
mode.
• When set to High fan speed during heating operation, the fan
runs at High fan speed even though the
mark is displayed.
• Depending on the operating conditions, the fan speed may be
increased by a small amount only.
SPECIAL REMARKS
How it works?
• Once the room temperature reaches the level that was set, the
unit’s operation frequency is changed automatically.
• During DRY operation, the fan speed automatically runs at lower
speed for providing a comfortable breeze.
• ‘‘DRY’’ operation is not possible if the indoor temperature is 15 °C
or less.
Heating performance
• Because this air conditioner heats a room by drawing in the heat
of the outside air (heat pump system), the heating efficiency will
fall off when the outdoor temperature is very low. If sufficient heat
cannot be obtained with this air conditioner, use another heating
appliance together with it.
Defrosting
• When the outdoor temperature is low, frost or ice may form on
the heat exchanger coil, reducing heating performance. When
this happens, a microcomputer defrosting system operates. At
the same time, the fan on the indoor unit stops and the
OPERATION lamp lights red and orange alternately until
defrosting is completed. Heating operation restarts after several
minutes. (This interval will vary slightly depending upon the
outdoor temperature and the way in which frost forms.)
Cold draft prevention
• For several minutes after the start of heating operation, the
indoor fan runs at a lower speed until the indoor heat exchanger
coil has warmed up sufficiently. However, the fan may remain
stopped when the room temperature is low. This is because the
COLD DRAFT PREVENTION SYSTEM is in operation.
• In the event of power failure, the unit will stop. When the power is
resumed, the unit will restart automatically within 15 minutes by
the remote controller.
Clicking sound is heard from the air conditioner
• In heating or cooling operation, any plastic parts may expand or
shrink due to a sudden temperature change. In this event, a
clicking sound may occur. This is normal, and the sound will
soon disappear.
• The remote controller sends the setting condition to the air
conditioner regularly at five minute intervals.
