Using the Remote Control Unit (continued)
How to Use the Remote
Control Unit
When using the remote control unit, always point the unit’s transmitter head
directly at the air conditioner’s receiver.
Remote Control Unit
Installation Position
The remote control unit may be operated either from a non-fixed position or
from a wall-mounted position. To ensure that the air conditioner operates
correctly, DO NOT install the remote control unit in the following places:
DO NOT
• In direct sunlight
• Behind a curtain or other places where it is covered
• More than 8 m away from the air conditioner
• In the path of the air conditioner’s airstream
• Where it may become extremely hot or cold
• Where it may be subject to electrical or magnetic noise
• Where there is an obstacle between the remote control unit and air
conditioner (since a check signal is sent from the remote control unit every
5 minutes)
Mounting the Remote Control
Unit
Before mounting the remote control unit, press the ON/OFF operation button
at the mounting location to make sure that the air conditioner operates from
that location. The indoor unit should make a beeping sound to indicate that it
has received the signal.
To take out the remote control unit, pull it forward.
When Holding the Remote
Control Unit
• When using the remote control unit and during air conditioner operation,
the transmitter on the remote control unit should be pointed toward the
receiver on the indoor unit.
• Make sure that there are no objects between the remote control unit and
receiver which could block the signal.
