• The air conditioner will control room temperature automatically round the

temperature point set by you.

• If the AUTO mode is uncomfortable, you can select desired conditions manu-

SLEEP/ECONOMIC OPERATION

• When you push SLEEP button  during COOLING, HEATING or AUTO opera-

tion, the air conditioner will automatically increase (cooling) or decrease

(heating) 1ºC per hour. The set temperature will be steady 2 hours later and

remains steady for 5 hours. After 5 hours the unit will stop. The fan speed

will be automatically controlled.

DEHUMIDIFYING OPERATION

• The dehumidifying mode will automatically select the dehumidifying operation based on the differen-

ce between the set temperature and the actual room temperature.

• The temperature is regulated while dehumidifying by repeatingly turning on and off of the cooling

operation or fan only. The fan speed is controlled automatically.

• In normal cooling operation the air conditioner will also dehumidify the air.

G NOTE When the air conditioner is dehumidifying it is likely that the room temperature will decrease. It

is therefore normal that a hygrostat will measure a higher relative humidity. The absolute humidity

in the room will however be lowered, depending on the amount of moisture produced in the

room (cooking, people etc).

A clogged air filter reduces the cooling efficiency of this unit. Clean the filter once

1. Lift the indoor unit panel up to an angle until it stops with a clicking sound.

2. Take hold of the handle of the screen filter and lift it up slightly to take it

out from the filter holder, then pull it downwards.

3. Remove the screen filter from the indoor unit.

• Clean the screen filter once every two weeks.

• Clean screen filter with a vacuum cleaner or water.

4. The black active carbon filter cannot be cleaned. This filter will simply not fil-

ter unpleasant odours anymore once dirty. At that moment this filter needs

to be replaced by a new filter. (available at your dealer). It is advised to

exchange this filter twice every season.

5. The green coloured 3M HAF filter will show clear signs of dirt on and in the

filter once dirty. When dirty this filter cannot be cleaned and needs to be

replaced by a new filter (available at your dealer). It is advised to exchange

this filter twice every season.

New filter Recommended change of filter

6. After replacing the active carbon filter and the 3M HAF filter in the filter hol-

der on the screen filter, the screen filter can be replaced into the air conditi-

7. Ensure before replacing that the filter is completely dry and has no defects.

8. Install the air freshening filter back into position.

9. Insert the upper portion of air filter back into the unit taking care that the

left and right edges line up correctly and place filter into position.

• Use a dry cloth to wipe the indoor unit and remote controller.

• A cloth dampened with cold water may be used on the indoor unit if

• The front panel of the indoor unit can be removed and cleaned with

water. Then wipe it with a dry cloth.

• Do not use a chemically treated cloth or duster to clean the unit.

• Do not use benzine, thinner, polishing powder, or similar solvents for

cleaning. These may cause the plastic surface to crack or deform.

G WARNING It is necessary to stop the air conditioner and disconnect the power

supply before cleaning.

f you plan to idle the unit for a long time, perform the following:

1. Operate the fan for about 6 hours to dry the inside of the unit.

2. Stop the air conditioner and disconnect power. If model S(C)3248 is used, interrupt the power supply.

Remove the batteries from the remote controller.

3. The outdoor unit requires periodic maintenance and cleaning. This should only be done by an authori-

zed airconditioning engineer.

Checks before operation

• Check that the wiring is not broken or disconnected.

• Check that the air filter is installed.

• Check if the air outlet or inlet is not blocked after the air conditioner has not been used for a long time.

J OPERATION TIPS The following events may occur during normal operation.

1. Protection of the air conditioner.

Compressor protection

• The compressor cannot restart for 3 minutes after it stops.

• The unit is designed not to blow cold air on HEAT mode, when the indoor heat exchanger is in one

of the following three situations and the set temperature has not been reached.

A. When heating has just started.

C. Low temperature heating.

• The indoor or outdoor fan stops running when defrosting.

• Frost may be generated on the outdoor unit during heat cycle when outdoor temperature is low and

humidity is high resulting in lower heating efficiency of the air conditioner.

During this condition air conditioner will stop heating operation periodically and start defrosting automatically.

• The time to defrost may vary from 4 to 10 minutes according to the outdoor temperature and the

amount of frost buildup on the outdoor unit.

• Do not touch the metal parts of the unit when removing the filter. Injuries can occur when

handling sharp metal edges.

• Do not use water to clean inside the air conditioner. Exposure to water can destroy the

insulation, leading to possible electric shock.

• When cleaning the unit, first make sure that the power and circuit breaker are turned off.

man_S(C)32xx.qxd:man_S18xx 05-03-13 16:27 Page 1272. A white mist coming out from the indoor unit.

A white mist may generate due to a large temperature difference between air inlet and air outlet on

COOL mode in an indoor environment that has a high relative humidity.

• A white mist may generate due to moisture generated from defrosting process when the air conditi-

oner restarts in HEAT mode operation after defrosting.

. Low noise of the air conditioner.

• You may hear a low hissing sound when the compressor is running or has just stopped running. This

sound is the sound of the refrigerant flowing or coming to a stop.

• You can also hear a low "squeak" sound when the compressor is running or has just stopped run-

ning. This is caused by heat expansion and cold contraction of the plastic parts in the unit when the

temperature is changing.

• A sound may be heard due to louver restoring to its original position when power is first turned on.

4. Dust is blown out from the indoor unit.

• This is a normal condition when the air conditioner has not been used for a long time or during first

5. A peculiar smell comes out from the indoor unit.

This is caused by the indoor unit giving off smells permeated from building material, from furniture, or smoke.

6. The air conditioner turns to FAN only mode from COOL or HEAT mode.

• When indoor temperature reaches the temperature setting on air conditioner, the compressor will

stop automatically, and the air conditioner turns to FAN only mode. The compressor will start again

when the indoor temperature rises on COOL mode or falls on HEAT mode to the set point.

7. Dripping water may generate on the surface of the indoor unit when cooling in a high relatively

humidity (relative humidity higher than 80%). Adjust the horizontal louver to the maximum air out-

let position and select HIGH fan speed.

• The air conditioner draws in heat from the outdoor unit and releases it via the indoor unit during

heating operation. When the outdoor temperature falls, heat drawn in by the air conditioner decre-

ases accordingly. At the same time, heat loading of the air conditioner increases due to larger diffe-

rence between indoor and outdoor temperature. If a comfortable temperature cannot be achieved

by the air conditioner, it is advised to use a supplementary heating device.

9. Auto-restart function.

• Power failure during operation will stop the unit completely.

The air conditioner is equipped with Auto-restart feature, when the power restores, the unit restarts

automatically with all the previous settings preserved by the memory function.

10. Refrigerant leak detection

• The air conditioner is provided with a Refrigerant leak detection system.

When the outdoor unit detects a shortage of refrigerant, the air conditioner will stop and the indoor

unit shows the alarm EC on the display.

When this alarm occurs, do not restart the air conditioner and contact your supplier.

K TROUBLE SHOOTING TIPS Malfunctions and Solutions

G T ROUBLE Stop the air conditioner immediately if one of the following faults occur. Disconnect the powerand contact your supplier.• Fuse blows frequently or circuit breaker trips frequently.• Other objects or water penetrate the air conditioner.• The remote controller won't work or works abnormally.• Other abnormal situations.• Operation indicator flashes 5 times every second, even after mains electricity has beendisconnected and reconnected.
