In Fan mode, the unit will display the room temperature. In other modes, the unit will display your temperature setting.

Note: A guide on using the infrared remote is not included in this literature package.

2.2 Achieving optimal performance

Optimal performance for the COOL, HEAT, and DRY modes can be achieved in the following temperature ranges. When your air conditioner is used outside of these ranges, certain safety protection features will activate and cause the unit to perform less than optimally.

• Keep doors and windows closed.

• Limit energy usage by using TIMER ON and TIMER OFF functions.

• Do not block air inlets or outlets.

• Regularly inspect and clean air filters. For a detailed explanation of each function, refer to the Remote Control Manual.

• Auto-restart If the unit loses power, it will automatically restart with the prior settings once power has been restored.

• Anti-mildew (some units) When turning off the unit from COOL, AUTO (COOL), or DRY modes, the air conditioner will continue operate at very low power to dry up condensed water and prevent mildew growth.

• Wireless control (some units) Wireless control allows you to control your air conditioner using your mobile phone and a Wireless connection.

• Louver angle memory (some units) When turning on your unit, the louver will automatically resume its former angle.

• Refrigerant leakage detection (some units) The indoor unit will automatically display “EC” when it detects refrigerant leakage. For a detailed explanation of your unit’s advanced functionality (such as TURBO mode and its self- cleaning functions), refer to the Remote Control Manual. 2 Unit specifications and features10 / 136 EN Split-type room air conditioner / User Manual

Note: Illustrations in this manual are for explanatory purposes. The actual shape of your indoor unit may be slightly different. The actual shape shall prevail.

• Setting angle of air flow Setting vertical angle of air flow While the unit is on, use the SWING/DIRECT button to set the direction (vertical angle) of airflow.

1. Press the SWING/DIRECT button once to activate the louver. Each time you press the button, it

will adjust the louver by 6°. Press the button until the direction you prefer is reached.

2. To make the louver swing up and down continuously, press and hold the SWING/DIRECT button

for 3 seconds. Press it again to stop the automatic function. Setting horizontal angle of air flow The horizontal angle of the airflow must be set manually. Grip the deflector rod (See Fig.B) and manually adjust it to your preferred direction. For some units, the horizontal angle of the airflow can be set by remote control, please refer to the Remote Control Manual.

Note on louver angles: When using COOL or DRY mode, do not set louver at too vertical an angle for long periods of time. This can cause water to condense on the louver blade, which will drop on your floor or furnishings. (See Fig.A) When using COOL or HEAT mode, setting the louver at too vertical an angle can reduce the performance of the unit due to restricted air flow. Do not move louver by hand. This will cause the louver to become out of sync. If this occurs, turn off the unit and unplug it for a few seconds, then restart the unit. This will reset the louver. 2 Unit specifications and featuresSplt-type room ar condtoner / User Manual 11 / 136 EN Range Fig. A

Safety precautions If ANY of the following conditions occurs, turn off your unit immediately!

• The power cord is damaged or abnormally warm

• You smell a burning odor

• The unit emits loud or abnormal sounds

• A power fuse blows or the circuit breaker frequently trips

• Water or other objects fall into or out of the unit Do not attempt to fix these yourself! Contact authorized service provider immediately!

The following problems are not a malfunction and in most situations will not require repairs. Issue Possible causes Unit does not turn on when pressing ON/ OFF button The Unit has a 3-minute protection feature that prevents the unit from overloading. The unit cannot be restarted within three minutes of being turned off. The unit changes from COOL/HEAT mode to FAN mode The unit may change its setting to prevent frost from forming on the unit. Once the temperature increases, the unit will start operating in the previously selected mode again. The set temperature has been reached, at which point the unit turns off the compressor. The unit will continue operating when the temperature fluctuates again. The indoor unit emits white mist In humid regions, a large temperature difference between the room’s air and the conditioned air can cause white mist. Both the indoor and outdoor units emit white mist When the unit restarts in HEAT mode after defrosting, white mist may be emitted due to moisture generated from the defrosting process. The indoor unit makes noises A rushing air sound may occur when the louver resets its position. A squeaking sound may occur after running the unit in HEAT mode due to expansion and contraction of the unit’s plastic parts. 5 TroubleshootingSplt-type room ar condtoner / User Manual 21 / 136 EN Issue Possible causes Both the indoor unit and outdoor unit make noises Low hssng sound durng operaton: Ths s normal and s caused by refrgerant gas flowng through both ndoor and outdoor unts. Low hssng sound when the system starts, has just stopped runnng, or s defrostng: Ths nose s normal and s caused by the refrgerant gas stoppng or changng drecton. Squeakng sound: Normal expanson and contracton of plastc and metal parts caused by temperature changes durng operaton can cause squeakng noses. The outdoor unit makes noises The unt wll make dfferent sounds based on ts current operatng mode. Dust is emitted from either the indoor or outdoor unit The unt may accumulate dust durng extended perods of non-use, whch wll be emtted when the unt s turned on. Ths can be mtgated by coverng the unt durng long perods of nactvty. The unit emits a bad odor The unt may absorb odors from the envronment (such as furnture, cookng, cgarettes, etc.) whch wll be emtted durng operatons. The unt’s flters have become moldy and should be cleaned. The fan of the outdoor unit does not operate Durng operaton, the fan speed s controlled to optmze product operaton. Operation is erratic, unpredictable, or unit is unresponsive Interference from cell phone towers and remote boosters may cause the unt to malfuncton. In ths case, try the followng:

• Dsconnect the power, then reconnect.
