G SAFETY
Operating status
The safety components can detect faults and deactivate the unit in the following cases:
HEATING
The outside temperature is above 24^ C
The outside temperature is under -7^
The room temperature is above 27^
COOLING
The outside temperature is above 43^ C
The room temperature is under 21^
DRY
The room temperature is under 18^
If the air conditioner is operating in the COOLING or DRY mode while relative humidity is over 80% , moisture may drip out of the air outlet of the indoor unit (due to a window or door being open, for instance).
Noise
- Install the air conditioner on a solid base in order to prevent excessive noise.
- Install the outdoor unit in such a way that the expelled air does not cause a nuisance for neighbours.
- Do not place obstacles in the path of the air expelled from the outdoor unit, this increases noise.
Safety features
1 The safety feature deactivates the unit in the following cases:
- When the function is stopped or changed while the unit is operating. Wait 3 minutes before switching the air conditioner on again.
-
After the plug has been inserted in the socket and the unit has been immediately switched on. The unit will activate after approximately 20 seconds.
-
Press the ON/OFF button to restart after the unit has deactivated due to the operation of the safety feature. The Timer must then be reset.
Checks
The following must be checked after the air conditioner has been in use for an extended period of time:
Overheating of the power cable and the plug. Can you smell burning?
Is there more noise or vibration than normal?
- Does the indoor unit leak water?
Is the metal housing live?
Switch the air conditioner off in all the above cases! We recommend periodic inspection by a registered installer (at least once every five years).
Feature of the HEATING mode
For heating
When the HEATING function is activated, the airstream will only start to flow from the indoor unit after 2 - 5 minutes.
After Heating
When the Heating function is deactivated, the ventilator of the indoor unit will continue operating for another 2 - 5 minutes.
Defrosting
During HEATING, the machine will defrost automatically in order to ensure optimum operating efficiency. This procedure usually takes 2-10 minutes. The ventilator function stops during defrosting. The HEATING function restarts automatically after defrosting.
The following problems do not always indicate a fault. Please check them before contacting the service department:
| Problem | Cause / Solution |
| The unit does not operate. | The plug is not inserted firmly in the socket. |
| The batteries in the remote control are empty. | |
| The safety feature has been activated or the fuse has burnt out. | |
| No cooled or heated air. | Are the air inlets or outlets blocked? |
| Is the temperature set correctly? | |
| Is the air filter dirty? | |
| No effective operation. | Faults (due to static electricity discharges or disruptions in the power supply) will prevent the machine from operating correctly. If this is the case, pull the plug out of the socket, and then re-insert it after 2-3 seconds. |
| Does not start immediately. | Changing the mode during operation: 3 minute delay. |
| Unusual odour. | Odour may be caused by another source – furniture, cigarettes, etc. The unit expels air that it has sucked in. |
| The sound of running water. | Caused by the refrigerant in the air conditioner: this does not indicate a fault. |
| The sound of defrosting in the heating mode. | |
| A creaking sound. | The sound may be caused by the expansion/shrinkage of the front panel as a consequence of temperature fluctuations. |
| Mist/moisture is expelled from the air outlet. | Condensation/mist is created when the air temperature in the room drops significantly due to the fact that cold air is expelled in the COOLING or DRY mode. |
| The red compressor indicator flashes constantly and the ventilator in the indoor unit ceases to operate. | The unit will switch from the heating mode to the defrosting mode. The indicator light will go out within 10 minutes and the unit will return to the heating mode. |
