7. 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 operation.
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 Automatic Operation.
• QUIET Mode and HIGH POWER Mode cannot be used at the
same time.
• 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.
8. LED CLEAN Mode
In LED CLEAN mode, a UV anti-bacterial unit (including a LED
CLEAN lamp and anti-bacterial filter) in the indoor unit is used
during AUTO, HEAT, DRY, COOL, or FAN operation to remove
bacteria from air blown from the air conditioner.
Press the LED CLEAN button.
The
mark appears in the display.
To cancel, press the LED CLEAN button again.
• When the LED CLEAN button is pressed, the UV anti-bacterial
unit operates for 30 minutes and cleans air blown from the air
conditioner.
• Pressing the MODE selector button cancels LED CLEAN mode.
• Do not open the front panel while the LED CLEAN lamp on the
display is on.
• Depending on the room brightness, light from the LED CLEAN
lamp may reflect inside the air conditioner and be visible. This is
not a malfunction.
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.
• Sometimes the indoor unit may not get to the set fan speed such
as LOW and QUIET under cool operation at very low outdoor
temperatures due to the indoor unit being protected from ice or
frost.
• In the event of power failure, the unit will stop. When the power is
resumed, the unit will restart automatically within approximately
5 minutes at S position or 15 minutes at M position of the S/M switch
on AUTO mode by the remote control unit.
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 control unit sends the setting condition to the air
conditioner regularly at five minute intervals.
