2. FAN OPERATION
The airflow can be switched in 5 steps such as AUTO, QUIET, LOW, MED, HIGH,
while the indoor fan only runs.
When Fan mode is set at (Auto), it operates on (MED) Fan Speed.
3. COOLING OPERATION
Switch the airflow [AUTO], and the indoor fan motor will run according to a room temperature,
as shown in Figure3.
On the other hand, if switched in [HIGH] [QUIET], the indoor motor will run at a constant airflow of [COOL]
operation modes QUIET, LOW, MED, HIGH,as shown in Table4.

5. HEATING OPERATION
Switch the airflow [AUTO], and the indoor fan motor will run according to a room temperature,
as shown in Figure4.
On the other hand, if switched in [HIGH] [QUIET], the indoor motor will run at a constant airflow
of [HEAT] operation modes QUIET, LOW, MED, HIGH, as shown in Table4.

* The outdoor fan speed mentioned above depends on the compressor frequency.
(When the compressor frequency increases, the outdoor fan speed also changes to the higher
speed. When the compressor frequency decreases, the outdoor fan speed also changes to the
lower speed.)
* After the defrost control is operated on the heating mode, the fan speed keeps at the higher speed
as table8 without relating to the compressor frequency.

7. LOUVER CONTROL
1. VERTICAL LOUVER CONTROL
(Function Range)
Each time the button is pressed, the air direction range will change as follow:
1
2
3
4
5
6
Use the air direction adjustments within the ranges shown above.
The vertical airflow direction is set automatically as shown, in accordance with the type of operation selected.
Cooling / Dry mode
Heating mode
Horizontal flow
Downward flow
During AUTO mode operation, for the first a few minutes after beginning operation,
air-flow will be horizontal 1; the air direction cannot be adjusted during this period.
The air flow direction setting will temporarily become 1 when the temperature of the air f-low is
low at the start of the Heating mode.
2. SWING OPERATION
When the swing signal is received from the remote controller, the vertical louver starts to swing.

3. SLEEP TIMER
If the sleep is set, the room temperature is monitored and the operation is stopped automatically.
If the operation mode or the set temperature is change after the sleep timer is set, the operation is
continued according to the changed setting of the sleep timer from that time ON.
In the cooling operation mode
When the sleep timer is set, the setting temperature is increased 2F(1C).
It increases the setting temperature another 2F(1C) after 1 hour.
After that, the setting temperature is not changed and the operation is stopped at the time
of timer setting.

partial contents. (Rewriting shall be done
upon erasing the all contents.)
