Frequently Asked Questions - ACI 124 WH TEKA

How do I install the air conditioner?

Installation should be performed by a qualified professional. Ensure the unit is placed on a stable surface with proper drainage and ventilation. Refer to the installation manual for detailed steps.

How often should I clean the filters?

Clean the air filters every 2 weeks under normal use. Wash with lukewarm water and mild detergent, then dry thoroughly before reinserting.

What do the error codes on the display mean?

Error codes indicate specific malfunctions. For example, 'E1' may signal a sensor issue. Consult the user manual for a complete list and troubleshooting steps.

How do I use the remote control?

Insert two AAA batteries (included). Point the remote towards the indoor unit and press ON/OFF. Use MODE to select Auto, Cool, Dry, Heat, or Fan. Adjust temperature with TEMP ▲/▼ and fan speed with FAN.

What is the difference between Cool and Dry mode?

In Cool mode, the unit lowers room temperature. In Dry mode, it reduces humidity without significant cooling. The fan speed is automatically set in Dry mode.

How do I set the timer?

Press TIMER on the remote. Use TEMP ▲/▼ to set the desired on/off time (in 30-minute increments up to 10 hours, then 1-hour increments up to 24 hours). Confirm by pointing to the unit.

Why is the unit not cooling?

Check if the filter is dirty, the set temperature is appropriate, and the mode is set to Cool. Ensure windows and doors are closed. If the problem persists, contact a service technician.

Can I use the air conditioner in winter?

Yes, if your model includes a Heat mode (not available on cooling-only units). Select HEAT mode via the remote and set the desired temperature.

How do I activate the self-clean function?

Press the CLEAN button on the remote while the unit is in Cool or Dry mode. The unit will run a cleaning cycle and turn off automatically.

What do I do if the remote stops working?

Replace the batteries with new ones. Ensure there are no obstructions between the remote and the unit. If still not working, check for direct sunlight interference or contact customer service.

NOT SURE WHAT A FUNCTION DOES?

Refer to the How to Use Basic Functions and How to Use Advanced Functions sections of this manual for a detailed description of how to use your air conditioner.

SPECIAL NOTE

• Button designs on your unit may differ slightly from the example shown.
• If the indoor unit does not have a particular function, pressing that function's button on the remote control will have no effect.
• When there are wide differences between "Remote controller Manual" and "USER'S MANUAL" on function description, the description of "USER'S MANUAL" shall prevail.

Handling the Remote Controller

Inserting and Replacing Batteries

Your air conditioning unit may come with two batteries(some units). Put the batteries in the remote control before use.

1. Slide the back cover from the remote control downward, exposing the battery compartment.
2. Insert the batteries, paying attention to match up the (+) and (-) ends of the batteries with the symbols inside the battery compartment.
3. Slide the battery cover back into place.

Remote Control

• Direct sunlight can interfere with the infrared signal receiver.
• There must be a clear line of sight between the remote and the appliance.
• If the signals from the remote control happen to control another appliance, move the appliance to another location or contact customer service.

Battery Disposal

• Do not dispose of batteries as unsorted municipal waste. Refer to local laws for proper disposal of batteries.
• Batteries may have a chemical symbol at the bottom of the disposal icon. This chemical symbol means that the battery contains a heavy metal that exceeds a certain concentration. An example is Pb: Lead (>0.004%).
• Appliances and used batteries must be treated in a specialized facility for reuse, recycling and recovery. By ensuring correct disposal, you will help avoid possible negative consequences for the environment and human health.

Pb

Battery Performance

For optimal product performance:

• Do not mix old and new batteries, or batteries of different brands.
• Do not leave batteries in the remote control if you don't plan on using the device for more than 2 months.

Notes For Using Remote Control

The device could comply with the local national regulations.

• In Canada, it should comply with CAN ICES-3(B)/NMB-3(B).
• In USA, this device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
  (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and
  (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Pressing the ECO/GEAR button, or modifying the mode or adjusting the set temperature to less than 24^irc C/ 75^irc F will stop ECO operation.

Under ECO operation, the set temperature should be 24^irc C/75°F or above, it may result in insufficient cooling. If you feel uncomfortable, just press the ECO button again to stop it.

GEAR operation:

Press the ECO/GEAR button to enter the GEAR operation as following:

75%(up to 75% electrical energy consumption) → 50%(up to 50% electrical energy consumption) → Previous setting mode.

Under GEAR operation, the setting temperature will revert back in the display screen after 3 seconds you select the desired electrical energy consumption operation.

SHORTCUT function

Press SHORTCUT button(some units)

For the detail, see "sleep operation" in "USER'S MANUAL."

NOTE: The SLEEP function is not available in FAN or DRY mode.

Follow me function( 👁 ):

The FOLLOW ME function enables the remote control to measure the temperature at its current location and send this signal to the air conditioner every 3 minutes interval. When using AUTO, COOL or HEAT modes, measuring ambient temperature from the remote control (instead of from the indoor unit itself) will enable the air conditioner to optimize the temperature around you and ensure maximum comfort.

NOTE: Press and hold Turbo button for seven seconds to start/stop memory feature of Follow Me function.

• If the memory feature is activated, "On" displays for 3 seconds on the screen.
