CHARACTERISTICS AND REQUESTS ABOUT YOUR GAS HEAT PUMP AIR CONDITIONER The gas heat pump air conditioner (GHP) uses gas as the fuel to drive the compressor.

As it uses gas engine, there are various characteristics. • As the unit does not easily frost, defrosting operations are infrequent even on very cold days, allowing the unit to provide stable and continuous heating. • As the electric power consumption is about 1 kW, this leads to be less received power equipment. However, as with a car engine, periodical inspections by a specialist are for efficient use needed for a comfortable operation. Make sure you have these periodical inspections.

ENSURE YOU SIGN UP FOR A REGULAR CHECK UP CONTRACT In order to have a comfortable operation of GHP for a long period, periodical inspections are necessary.

Conduct yearly inspections supported by a specialist. What will happen if you do not have periodical inspections. 1. The engine oil will deteriorate, causing a malfunction. 2. The air cleaner element will be clog up, causing carbon monoxide and occasional reduction of performance.

REQUESTS Once signed up for a periodical inspection, a specialist will call on depending on the length of time the unit has been in use. After a fixed period of in use hours, the remote controller will display “Oil Inspection”.

At this time we would appreciate you contacting your dealer or service center for a check up. For details refer to page 4.
