FOIRE AUX QUESTIONS - FAH12ES2T FRIGIDAIRE

Comment nettoyer le filtre à air de mon climatiseur Frigidaire FAH12ES2T ?

Débranchez l'appareil, retirez le filtre en le tirant vers le haut. Lavez-le à l'eau tiède avec un détergent doux, rincez et séchez complètement avant de le remettre. Vous pouvez aussi le passer à l'aspirateur.

Que faire si le climatiseur ne s'allume pas ?

Vérifiez que la fiche est bien enfoncée, que le fusible n'a pas sauté ou que le disjoncteur n'est pas déclenché. Assurez-vous que la commande est sur ON et attendez 3 minutes après un arrêt rapide pour permettre au compresseur de redémarrer.

Comment utiliser la fonction Économie d'énergie (Energy Saver) ?

Appuyez sur la touche Energy Saver. Le ventilateur continue 3 minutes après l'arrêt du compresseur, puis cycle 2 minutes toutes les 10 minutes jusqu'à ce que la température soit à nouveau trop élevée.

Comment régler la minuterie (Delay Start/Stop) ?

Assurez-vous que l'appareil est en position ON pour un arrêt différé, ou OFF pour un démarrage différé. Appuyez sur TIMER, puis réglez le délai avec les flèches (par paliers de 0,5 h jusqu'à 10 h, puis 1 h jusqu'à 24 h). La fonction s'annule en allumant ou éteignant l'appareil.

Que signifie le voyant "Check Filter" ?

Ce témoin s'allume après 250 heures de fonctionnement pour vous rappeler de nettoyer le filtre à air. Après nettoyage, appuyez sur le bouton "Clean Filter" pour l'éteindre.

Puis-je utiliser une rallonge électrique avec ce climatiseur ?

Non, n'utilisez jamais de rallonge ou d'adaptateur. Branchez directement sur une prise murale mise à la terre. Le cordon d'alimentation est équipé d'un dispositif de sécurité.

Comment tester le dispositif de sécurité du cordon d'alimentation ?

Branchez l'appareil, appuyez sur le bouton TEST : le bouton RESET doit sortir. Ensuite, appuyez sur RESET pour réenclencher. Si le RESET ne reste pas enfoncé, remplacez le cordon.

Que faire si l'appareil affiche "AS", "HS" ou "ES" ?

Ces codes indiquent une défaillance du capteur. Contactez un service agréé Frigidaire pour réparation.

Comment convertir l'affichage de Fahrenheit en Celsius ?

Maintenez les touches de réglage de température (haut et bas) enfoncées simultanément pendant 3 secondes.

Que faire si de l'eau s'écoule à l'intérieur pendant le refroidissement ?

Cela est généralement dû à une mauvaise inclinaison. Vérifiez que le climatiseur est légèrement incliné vers l'extérieur pour permettre l'évacuation de l'eau. Consultez les instructions d'installation.

Air Conditioner Features (continued)

TO TURN UNITON:

YOU WILL SEE:

TO CHANGE TEMPERATURE SETTING:

YOU WILL SEE:

Note: Tap or hold either up (A) or down (v) button until the desired temperature is seen on display. This temperature will be automatically maintained anywhere between 60F (16°C) and 90F (32°C) for cooling mode. The Temperature will be automatically maintained anywhere between 55F (13°C) and 80F (27°C) for heating mode. If you want the display to read the actual room temperature, "FAN SEE ONLY MODE".

Note: The fan speed will begin in HI, then adjust to MED and LO as the room temperature conditions indictates. For example in cooling, if the room doesn't get too warm it will stay at LO. If the room temperature rises quickly, such as a door being opened, it will automatically go to HI speed. The fan speeds will adjust back to LO as the room returns to the original set temperature.

Air Conditioner Features (continued)

Note: Use this function only when cooling is not desired, such as for room air circulation. You can choose any fan speed you prefer, EXCEPT AUTO FAN. During this function, the display will show the actual current temperature, not the set temperature as in the cooling mode. Fan Only cannot be selected when the unit is in the 'Remote Sensing' Mode. (On those units with that feature).

TO USE THE ENERGY SAVER FEATURE:

Note: In this mode, the fan will continue to run for 3 minutes after the compressor shuts off. The fan then cycles on for 2 minutes at 10 minute intervals until the room temperature is above the set temperature, at which time the unit cooling system starts again.

Note 1: For Delay Stop, the unit must be in the ON position.
Note 2: For Delay Start, the unit must be in the OFF position.

To adjust timer setting, tap or hold the UP arrow (A) or DOWN arrow (v) to change the delay time by .5 hour increments up to 10 hours, then by 1 hour increments up to 24 hours. The control will count down the timer remaining until start (8, 7.5, 7, etc.). The Delay Start mode automatically selects High Cool mode (if Cool, Energy Saver, or Fan Only was the last mode selected) or High Heat (if Heat was the last mode selected). The temperature maintained will be the same as previously set. To change the set temperature, press "COOL" then Up or Down arrows until the desired temperature is indicated on the display. After 5 seconds, the control will automatically change the display back to the hours remaining until the unit will start/stop. Turning the unit ON or OFF at any timer will cancel the Delay Start/Stop function. The delay Start/Stop feature will work until the unit either starts or stops. Once this has happened then the above steps have to be repeated again.

Air Conditioner Features (continued)

SLEEP FEATURE:

The Sleep Mode can be selected with a Heating or Cooling Mode. Note: In this "MODE" the selected cooling temperature will increase by 2 degrees F, 30 minutes after the mode is selected. The temperature will then increase by another 2 degrees F, after an additional 30 minutes. This new temperature will be maintained for 7 hours before it returns to the originally selected temperature. If this Mode is selected with Heat, the set temperature will Decrease at the same time pattern. This ends the "Sleep" MODE and the unit will continue to operate as originally programmed. The "Sleep" MODE program can be cancelled at any time during operation by pressing "Sleep" MODE button.

CHECK FILTER FEATURE:

Note: This feature is a reminder to clean the Air Filter (See Care and Cleaning) for more efficient operation and cooling. The LED (light) will illuminate after 250 hours of operation. To reset after cleaning the filter, press the "Clean Filter" button and the light will go off.

(continued)

HEATING FEATURE (on some models):

YOU WILL SEE:

Note: This feature can be used with any combination of FAN Speeds (Low speed only on 115V modes), Timer, or Sleep Modes. When in the "Heat" Mode, the fan will run continuously while heat is needed. The temperature will automatically be maintained anywhere between 55^(13^) and 80^(27^) . When the room set temperature is satisfied, the fan will cycle off and on to circulate and sample the room air.

TO TURN UNIT OFF:

YOU WILL SEE:

FAULT CODES
If the display reads "AS", a sensor has failed. Contact your Authorized Frigidaire Service Center

If the display reads "HS", a sensor has failed. Contact your Authorized Frigidaire Service Center

If the display reads "ES", a sensor has failed. Contact your Authorized Frigidaire Service Center

ADDITIONAL THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW

Now that you have mastered the operating procedure, here are more features in your control that you should know.

The Remote Control will operate all the control panel features, follow the same instructions.
The "Cool" circuit has an automatic 3 minute time delayed start if the unit is turned off and on quickly. This prevents overheating of the compressor and possible circuit breaker tripping. The fan will continue to run during this time.
The control will maintain any set temperature between 60F and 90F degrees (cooling), 55F and 80F (heating).
The control is capable of displaying temperature in degrees Fahrenheit or degrees Celsius. To convert from one to the other, press and hold the Up and Down Temperature Selection Pads at the same time for 3 seconds.

Air Conditioner Features (continued)

(4-WAY)

4-Way Air Directional Louvers

The 4-Way air directional louvers allow you to direct air flow up or down, left or right throughout the room as needed. To adjust the air directional louvers side-to-side, use the center handle as you move it side-to-side.

Care and Cleaning

Clean your air conditioner occasionally to keep it looking new. Be sure to unplug the unit before cleaning to prevent shock or fire hazards.

Air Filter Cleaning

The air filter should be checked at least once a month to see if cleaning is necessary. Trapped particles in the filter can build up and cause an accumulation of frost on the cooling coils.

Grasp the filter by the center and pull up and out.
- Wash the filter using liquid dishwashing detergent and warm water. Rinse filter thoroughly. Gently shake excess water from the filter. Be sure filter is thoroughly dry before replacing.
Or, instead of washing you may vacuum the filter clean.

Cabinet Cleaning

• Be sure to unplug the air conditioner to prevent shock or fire hazard. The cabinet and front may be dusted with an oil-free cloth or washed with a cloth dampened in a solution of warm water and mild liquid dishwashing detergent. Rinse thoroughly and wipe dry.
  Never use harsh cleaners, wax or polish on the cabinetfront.
• Be sure to wring excess water from the cloth before wiping around the controls. Excess water in or around the controls may cause damage to the air conditioner.
  Plug in air conditioner.

Winter Storage

If you plan to store the air conditioner for the winter, cover it with plastic or return it to the original carton.

NOTE: To prevent rust or electrical connections from being damaged, store air conditioner in an upright position and a dry place.

Energy Saving Ideas

Do not block air flow inside with blinds, curtains or furniture; or outside with shrubs, enclosures, or other buildings.
The capacity of the room air conditioner must fit the room size for efficient and satisfactory operation.
Install the room air conditioner on the shady side of your home. A window that faces north is best because it is shaded most of the day.
- Close the fireplace damper, floor and wall registers so cool air does not escape up the chimney and into the duct work.
- Keep blinds and drapes in other windows closed during the sunniest part of the day.
Clean the air filter as recommended in the section "Care and Cleaning."
Proper insulation and weather stripping in your home will help keep warm air out and cool air in.
External house shading with trees, plants or awnings will help reduce the air conditioner's work load.
Operate heat producing appliances such as ranges, washers, dryers and dishwashers during the coolest part of the day.
