Frequently Asked Questions - GIFL224XAE GREE

How often should I clean the air filters?
Clean the air filters every 2 weeks under normal use. More often if the unit is used in a dusty environment. Turn off the unit and remove the filters by sliding them out. Wash with water, dry thoroughly, and reinsert.
What does the error code E1 mean on the display?
Error code E1 indicates a PCB malfunction or communication failure between indoor and outdoor units. Turn off the unit, wait 5 minutes, and restart. If it persists, contact a qualified technician.
Why is my air conditioner not cooling properly?
Check if the air filters are dirty, if the thermostat is set correctly, and if the outdoor unit is blocked by debris. Also ensure the room doors/windows are closed. If the issue continues, the refrigerant may be low.
How do I set the timer to turn off automatically?
Press the TIMER button on the remote. Use the +/- buttons to set the desired off time (0.5 to 24 hours). Press SET or TIMER again to confirm. The icon appears on the display.
Can I use an extension cord for the power supply?
No. The air conditioner must be plugged directly into a dedicated wall outlet with the correct voltage. Using an extension cord can cause overheating or fire hazard.
What is the ideal temperature setting for energy savings?
Set the thermostat to 24-26°C in cooling mode and 20-22°C in heating mode. Every degree lower in cooling increases energy consumption by about 8%.
How do I activate the Sleep Mode?
Press the SLEEP button on the remote. The unit will gradually adjust the temperature by 1-2°C over a few hours to ensure comfort while saving energy. The display dims automatically.
The remote control is not working. What should I do?
First, replace the batteries with new ones (AAA). Make sure there are no obstacles between the remote and the indoor unit. If it still doesn't work, try using the manual control button on the unit to test if the unit itself is functional.
Why does the outdoor unit produce water and ice during winter?
In heating mode, the outdoor unit absorbs heat and can accumulate frost or ice. The unit automatically runs defrost cycles periodically to melt the ice. Water dripping from the outdoor unit is normal during defrost.
Is it necessary to have a professional installation?
Yes. Installation should be performed by a qualified technician to ensure proper refrigerant circuit handling, electrical safety, and drainage. Improper installation can void the warranty and cause malfunctions.

To ensure safety, please be mindful of the following precautions.

⚠ Warning

  • When installing or relocating the unit, be sure to keep the refrigerant circuit free from air or substances other than the specified refrigerant.
    Any presence of air or other foreign substance in the refrigerant circuit will cause system pressure rise or compressor rupture, resulting in injury.

- When installing or moving this unit, do not charge the refrigerant which is not comply with that on the nameplate or unqualified refrigerant.

Otherwise, it may cause abnormal operation, wrong action, mechanical malfunction or even series safety accident.

- When refrigerant needs to be recovered during relocating or repairing the unit, be sure that the unit is running in cooling mode. Then, fully close the valve at high pressure side (liquid valve). About 30-40 seconds later, fully close the valve at low pressure side (gas valve), immediately stop the unit and disconnect power. Please note that the time for refrigerant recovery should not exceed 1 minute.

If refrigerant recovery takes too much time, air may be sucked in and cause pressure rise or compressor rupture, resulting in injury.

- During refrigerant recovery, make sure that liquid valve and gas valve are fully closed and power is disconnected before detaching the connection pipe. If compressor starts running when stop valve is open and connection pipe is not yet connected, air will be sucked in and cause pressure rise or compressor rupture, resulting in injury.

- When installing the unit, make sure that connection pipe is securely connected before the compressor starts running.

If compressor starts running when stop valve is open and connection pipe is not yet connected, air will be sucked in and cause pressure rise or compressor rupture, resulting in injury.

- Prohibit installing the unit at the place where there may be leaked corrosive gas or flammable gas.

If there leaked gas around the unit, it may cause explosion and other accidents.

- Do not use extension cords for electrical connections. If the electric wire is not long enough, please contact a local service center authorized and ask for a proper electric wire.

Poor connections may lead to electric shock or fire.

- Use the specified types of wires for electrical connections between the indoor and outdoor units. Firmly clamp the wires so that their terminals receive no external stresses.

Electric wires with insufficient capacity, wrong wire connections and insecure wire terminals may cause electric shock or fire.

Vacuum pumping

Use vacuum pump

  1. Remove the valve caps on the liquid valve and gas valve and the nut of refrigerant charging vent.
  2. Connect the charging hose of piezometer to the refrigerant charging vent of gas valve and then connect the other charging hose to the vacuum pump.

  3. Open the piezometer completely and operate for 10-15min to check if the pressure of piezometer remains in -0.1MPa.

  4. Close the vacuum pump and maintain this status for 1-2min to check if the pressure of piezometer remains in -0.1MPa. If the pressure decreases, there may be leakage.

  5. Remove the piezometer, open the valve core of liquid valve and gas valve completely with inner hexagon spanner.

  6. Tighten the screw caps of valves and refrigerant charging vent.

  7. Reinstall the handle.

Leakage detection

  1. With leakage detector
    Check if there is leakage with leakage detector.

  2. With soap water If leakage detector is not available, please use soap water for leakage detection. Apply soap water at the suspected position and keep the soap water for more than 3min. If there are air bubbles coming out of this position, there's a leakage.

Check after installation

- Check according to the following requirement after finishing installation.

Items to be checked Possible malfunction
Has the unit been installed firmly?The unit may drop, shake or emit noise.
Have you done the refrigerant leakage test?It may cause insufficient cooling (heating) capacity.
Is heat insulation of pipeline sufficient?It may cause condensation and water dripping.
Is water drained well?It may cause condensation and water dripping.
Is the voltage of power supply according to the voltage marked on the nameplate?It may cause malfunction or damaging the parts.
Is electric wiring and pipeline installed correctly?It may cause malfunction or damaging the parts.
Is the unit grounded securely? It may cause electric leakage.
Does the power cord follow the specification?It may cause malfunction or damaging the parts.
Is there any obstruction in the air inlet and outlet?It may cause insufficient cooling (heating) capacity.
The dust and sundries caused during installation are removed?It may cause malfunction or damaging the parts.
The gas valve and liquid valve of connection pipe are open completely?It may cause insufficient cooling (heating) capacity.
Is the inlet and outlet of piping hole been covered?It may cause insufficient cooling (heating) capacity or waster electricity.

Test operation

  1. The additional refrigerant oil and refrigerant charging required after prolonging connection pipe

- After the length of connection pipe is prolonged for 10m at the basis of standard length, you should add 5ml of refrigerant oil for each additional 5m of connection pipe.

- The calculation method of additional refrigerant charging amount (on the basis of liquid pipe):

Additional refrigerant charging amount = prolonged length of liquid pipe × additional refrigerant charging amount per meter

- Basing on the length of standard pipe, add refrigerant according to the requirement as shown in the table. The additional refrigerant charging amount per meter is different according to the diameter of liquid pipe. See the following sheet.

Pipe expanding method

Note:

Improper pipe expanding is the main cause of refrigerant leakage. Please expand the pipe according to the following steps:

A: Cut the pipe

  • Confirm the pipe length according to the distance of indoor unit and outdoor unit.
  • Cut the required pipe with pipe cutter.

C: Put on suitable insulating pipe

D: Put on the union nut

- Remove the union nut on the indoor connection pipe and outdoor valve; install the union nut on the pipe.
