Frequently Asked Questions - AF-S100RX SHARP

How do I install the Sharp AF-S100RX air conditioner?

Installation requires a standard double-hung window. The kit includes side panels, brackets, and a foam seal. Follow the manual for proper positioning and secure the unit with the included screws. Ensure the window sash locks the unit in place.

How often should I clean the air filter?

Clean the washable filter every two weeks during peak usage. A clogged filter reduces cooling efficiency. Remove the filter from the front grille, vacuum or rinse with water, let it dry completely, and reinstall.

The remote control is not working. What should I do?

First, replace the batteries (2 AAA). Ensure there is no obstruction between the remote and the unit. Point the remote directly at the receiver. If still not working, reset the unit by unplugging for 30 seconds.

How do I drain excess water from the unit?

In humid conditions, the unit collects condensate. Locate the drain plug at the bottom rear. Place a pan under it, remove the plug, and allow water to drain. Reinsert the plug securely. Some models have a continuous drain hose option.

What do the error codes mean?

Error codes appear as flashing lights on the panel. Refer to the manual for a full list. Common codes: E1 (thermistor failure), E2 (condenser sensor), E3 (drain pump). Contact customer support for diagnosis.

Can I use an extension cord with this air conditioner?

No. The unit requires a dedicated 15A circuit. Using an extension cord may cause voltage drop, overheating, or fire. Plug directly into a grounded outlet.

How do I set the timer?

Press the Timer button on the remote. Use +/- to set the hours (1-24). The unit will start or stop based on the timer mode. Confirm with the Timer button again. The indicator light shows it is set.

Why is the unit blowing warm air?

Check the thermostat setting: ensure it is below room temperature. Clean the air filter if dirty. Verify the windows and doors are closed. If the compressor is not running, it may need a reset (unplug 5 minutes).

How do I use the dehumidifier function?

Press Mode until the dehumidifier icon appears. The unit will run the fan and compressor intermittently to remove moisture. Drain the collected water as needed. This is not a primary dehumidifier for large spaces.

Is there a child lock feature?

Yes. Press and hold the Mode and Fan buttons simultaneously for 3 seconds to lock the touch panel. Repeat to unlock. The remote control still functions when locked.

PRECAUTIONS

CAUTION FOR USE

IMPORTANT: Points to keep in mind when using your air conditioner.

• Install the air conditioner by following the installation instructions given in the previous section of this manual.
- Make sure the unit is the correct capacity for the area you want to cool.
- Do not modify any part of this product.
- Do not insert objects into any part of the unit.
- Push the AC power plug securely into the receptacle and make sure it is not loose.

- Use power circuit with a proper voltage rating.

Use a three-pronged grounded electrical outlet rated 125V, 60Hz, 15 amp or more, AC only as shown on right.

Use of an improper voltage rating power circuit can result in damage to the unit and possibly fire.

3-pronged Grounding Receptacle 15 Amps. 125V.

• Always use a fuse with the proper amp rating.

Do not, under any circumstances, use wire, pins or other objects in place of the proper fuse.

- Use of extension cords of any kind is not recommended.

If you still elect to use an extension cord, it is absolutely necessary that it be a UL Listed 3-wire grounding type appliance extension cord rated 125 Volts, 15 amp or more.

- Ventilate the room periodically during use, especially if using gas appliances.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: Improper use of the grounding plug can result in the risk of electric shock.

This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current.

This appliance is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug.

The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.

WARNING: Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the round grounding prong from this plug.

If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a UL Listed 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug, and a 3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug on the appliance.

The marked rating of the extension cord should be AC 125 Volt, 15 Amp or more.

Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.

If a grounding adapter is used, make sure the receptacle box is fully grounded.

NOTES ON OPERATION

- Allow 3 minutes for the compressor to restart cooling.

If you turn the air conditioner off and immediately restart it, allow three minutes for the compressor to restart cooling. There is an electronic device in the unit that keeps the compressor off for three minutes.

- When power failure occurs

This air conditioner has a memory function to store settings when a power failure occurs. After power recovery, the unit will automatically re-start in the same settings which were active before the power failure.

• Dehumidifying function

The air conditioner removes moisture from the air in your room.

• Cooling operation under low temperatures: Is your unit freezing up?

The unit operates on inside and outside temperatures. Freezing can occur when the temperature is set close to 64^ F and when there are low outside temperatures, especially during the night hours. At these conditions, a further temperature drop may cause the unit to freeze. Setting the unit to a higher temperature will prevent it from freezing.

ENERGY EFFICIENCY TIPS

- Setting the proper temperature.

For optimum energy efficiency, keep the difference between the inside and outside temperature within 10°F(5°C). Do not keep the temperature setting any lower than is necessary for you to feel comfortable. Generally, 78°F to 80°F(26°C to 27°C) is a comfortable summer indoor temperature.

When you turn the unit on, do not set the temperature higher than the room temperature at start up as this will not allow the compressor to cycle and maintain a comfortable room temperature.

- Avoid direct sunlight.

Close blinds, drapes or shades to keep out direct sunlight during cooling operation.

- Keep the filter clean.

Keeping the filter clean greatly aids efficient operation. A dirty filter blocks the flow of air, making your air conditioner work harder and less efficiently. See page 17 on how to clean the filter.

- Turn off unnecessary light.

Your air conditioner must remove the heat produced by your lights or other heat-producing appliances. Turn off lights or appliances that are not in use.

• Install your air conditioner in a shady location.

Direct sunlight on a window air conditioner increases its workload and will increase its operating cost.

- Don't let cool air escape.

Close windows and outside doors. Do not keep doors open and let hot air rush in. Improperly installed air conditioners and improperly weatherstripped doors and windows will let hot air in and the cool air out.

- Turn off air conditioner when no one is home.

Use only when necessary. The fewer hours a room air conditioner is used, the lower the operating cost.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

CLEANING THE FILTER

If the filter is clogged with dust, the amount of air flow will be reduced, resulting in poor cooling performance. The filter should be cleaned every 10 days. At the beginning of every cooling season or after a long period of inactivity, clean the filter before starting the unit.

1 REMOVE THE FILTER

Open the front panel and get the filter out.

2 CLEAN THE FILTER

To remove dust from the filter, use a vacuum cleaner or wash it in clean water.

If the filter is very dirty, wash it with detergent and rinse carefully with clean water. Dry the filter with a soft cloth.

Do not expose the filter to heat or dry it in direct sunlight.

3 RE-INSTALL THE FILTER

Put the filter into its original position and close the front panel.

Never operate the unit without installing the filter. It may result in serious damage to the unit.

Cooling will not take place in the fan only mode. Change the MODE setting
• Is the filter clogged with dust?
A dirty filter can cause the cooling coils to freeze. If this happens, clean the filter and replace. Run the air conditioner on the MED FAN setting until all ice dissipates.
• Is the temperature set properly?
If your room is too warm, adjust the temperature setting lower.
• Is the window exposed to direct sunlight?
Close curtains or blinds to minimize solar energy heating the room.
- Are the windows or doors open?
Close all windows and doors for maximum cooling.

BEFORE CALLING FOR SERVICE

NOTE: WATER IN BOTTOM OF TRAY

- Water will collect in the bottom tray of the unit. This is normal. Water condenses on the evaporator coil at the front of the unit and is channeled to the rear where it is picked up by the condenser fan. The water is blown onto the condenser coil fins and this creates a "splashing" noise which is normal. If excess water builds up in this tray it will drain outside through a grooved channel in the tray.

SOUNDS

• The operating sound may seem rather loud for 2 to 3 minutes when the unit is first turned on. This is the sound of the compressor's start-up and is normal.
• A soft, swishing noise can be heard immediately after the unit is turned on or off, and also during operation. This is the sound of the refrigerant flowing inside the unit.

IF THE UNIT FAILS TO RECEIVE THE REMOTE CONTROL SIGNAL

• Check the remote control batteries. Replace if necessary.
• Try to send the signal again with the remote control pointed directly at the unit's receiver window.
• Check whether the remote control batteries are installed with the polarities properly aligned.
