CAUTIONS FOR LOCATION / INSTALLATION

• Make sure to connect the air conditioner to power supply of the rated voltage and frequency.
  Use of a power supply with improper voltage and frequency can result in equipment damage and possible fire.
• Do not install the unit in a place where inflammable gas may leak. It may cause fire. Install the unit in a place with minimal dust, fumes and moisture in the air.
• Arrange the drain hose to ensure smooth drainage. Insufficient drainage may cause wetting of the room, furniture etc.
• Make sure a leak breaker or a circuit breaker is installed, depending on the installation location, to avoid electrical shock.

ADDITIONAL NOTES ON OPERATION

D.B. = Dry-bulb W.B. = Wet-bulb

• The built-in protective device may prevent the unit from operating when used out of this range.

- Condensation may form on the air outlet if the unit operates continuously in the COOL or DRY mode when humidity is over 80 percent.

WHEN POWER FAILURE OCCURS

This air conditioner has a memory function to store settings when a power failure occurs.

After power recovery, the unit will automatically re-start in the same settings which were active before the power failure, except for timer settings.

If the timers were set before a power failure, they will need to be re-set after power recovery.

NOTES FOR MODELS AY-AP18DR/AY-AP24DR

PREHEATING FUNCTION

In the HEAT operation, the indoor fan may not start for two to five minutes after the unit is turned on to prevent cold air from blowing out of the unit.

DE-ICING FUNCTION

• When ice forms on the heat exchanger in the outdoor unit during the HEAT operation, an automatic de-icer provides heat for about 5 to 10 minutes to remove the ice. During de-icing, the inside and outside fans stop operating.
• After de-icing is completed, the unit automatically resumes operation in the HEAT mode.

HEATING EFFICIENCY

• The unit employs a heat pump that draws heat from the outside air and releases it into the room. The outside air temperature therefore greatly affects the heating efficiency.
• If the heating efficiency is reduced due to low outside temperatures, use an additional heater.
• It takes time to warm up and heat the entire room because of the forced air circulation system.

TIPS ON SAVING ENERGY

Below are some simple ways to save energy when you use your air conditioner.

SET THE CORRECT TEMPERATURE

• Setting the thermostat 1°C higher than the desired temperature in the COOL mode (and 2°C lower in the HEAT mode with models AY-AP18DR/AY-AP24DR) will save approximately 10 percent in power consumption.
• Setting the temperature lower than necessary during cooling operation will result in increased power consumption.

BLOCK DIRECT SUNLIGHT AND PREVENT DRAFTS

• Blocking direct sunlight during cooling operation will reduce power consumption.
• Close the windows and doors during cooling operation (and heating operation with models AY-AP18DR/AY-AP24DR).

SET PROPER AIR FLOW DIRECTION TO OBTAIN THE BEST AIR CIRCULATION

KEEP FILTER CLEAN TO ENSURE THE MOST EFFICIENT OPERATION MAKE MOST OF THE TIMER OFF FUNCTION

DISCONNECT THE POWER CORD WHEN THE UNIT IS NOT USED FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME

- The indoor unit still consumes a small amount of power when it is not operating.

CAUTION

• Do not allow the signal receiver window to receive strong direct sunlight, since it can adversely affect its operation. If the signal receiver window is exposed to direct sunlight, close a curtain to block the light.
• Using a fluorescent lamp with a quick starter in the same room may interfere with transmission of the signal.
• The unit can be affected by signals transmitted from the remote control of a television, VCR or other equipment used in the same room.
• Do not leave the remote control in direct sunlight or near a heater. Also, protect the unit and remote control from moisture and shock which can discolour or damage them.

TIPS ABOUT PLASMACLUSTER OPERATION

The ionizer inside the air conditioner will release cluster ions, which are collective mass of positive and negative ions, into the room. The cluster ions reduce airborne mold fungus.

AIR CLEAN OPERATION

Cluster ions released into the air will reduce airborne mold fungus.

It is said that plenty of negative ions exist in places such as waterfalls or waterside in natural environment. In this operation mode, negative ions will be released in an increased rate, in order to bring the room air close to this condition.

Please refer to page 11 for operation.
