Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting tips
The following events may occur during normal operation, and may not indicate malfunction
| Symptom Cause | |
| Operation is delayed after restart | To prevent blowout of the fuse, the compressor will not operate while the protection circuit is working for about 3 minutes after sudden OFF/ON operation of the power supply, this is normal operation and designed to protect the compressor. |
| Fan speed changes from off, to very slow and then normal | Automatically happens in heating mode: prevents cold air blowing onto occupants when the heating operation is start, perform automatic defrosting operation, perform low temperature heating operation |
| Heating operation stops suddenly and defrost-light blinks | In HEAT mode, the indoor unit temporarily stops for maximum of 10 minutes to perform the automatic defrosting operation. |
| Mist coming out of the indoor unit | In COOL mode, a mist generated by condensation formed with sudden cooling process may be emitted.Mist may generate due to moisture generated from defrosting process when the air conditioner restarts in HEAT mode operation after defrosting |
| Low volume sounds are emitted by the air conditioner | Hissing sound-- during operation or immediately after stopping the air conditioner, refrigerant flowing sound may be heard.Squeaking sound-- normal expansion and contraction of plastic and metal parts caused by temperature change during the operation.Rushing air-- when louver resets its position. |
| Dust discharges from the unit | May occur when air conditioner is used for the first time or has not been used for a long time. |
| Emits a peculiar odour | Various smells generated from interior textile, furniture, or cigarette smoke absorbed into the air conditioner may be emitted. If not the case call an authorised service contractor. |
| Changes to fan only while cooling or heating mode | Room temperature reaches the temperature setting of the remote control. If not the case call your suitable contractor. |
