CAPABILITIES

Heating Capability

  • This room air conditioner utilizes a heat pump system that absorbs exterior heat and brings it into a room to be heated. As the ambient temperature gets lower, heating capability will also lower. In such a situation, the inverter work to increase compressor rpm to keep the unit's heating capability from decreasing. If the unit's heating performance is still unsatisfactory, other heating appliances should be used to augment this unit's performance.
  • The air conditioner is designed to heat an entire room so that it may take some time before you feel warm. Timer operation is recommended for effective preheating ahead of the desired time.
    Do not use a stove or any other high temperature devices in proximity to the indoor unit.

Cooling and Dehumidifying Capabilities

- If the heat present in a room exceeds the unit's cooling capacity (for example, if there are many people in the room or other heating appliances are used), the preset room temperature may not be reached.

Notes

- In quiet operation or stopping the running, the following phenomena may occasionally occur, but they are not abnormal for the operation.

(1) Slight flowing noise of refrigerant in the refrigerating cycle.

(2) Slight rubbing noise from the fan casing which is cooled and then gradually warmed as operation stops.

- The odor will possibly be emitted from the room air conditioner because the various odor, emitted by smoke, foodstuffs, cosmetics and so on, sticks to it. So please clean the air filter and the evaporator regularly to reduce the odor.

- Please contact your sales agent immediately if the air conditioner still fails to operate normally after the above inspections. Inform your agent of the model of your unit, production number, date of installation. Please also inform him regarding the fault.

Please note:

On switching on the equipment, particularly when the room light is dimmed, a slight brightness fluctuation may occur. This is of no consequence.

The conditions of the local Power Supply Companies are to be observed.
