Removing and installing intake grille

■ Removing intake grille This air conditioner operates on the heat-pump principle, absorbing
heat from air outdoors and transferring that heat to the indoor unit. As a

drops.
2. While pressing the left and right mounting shafts outward
gently, pull the intake grille. If you feel that the heating performance is insufficient, we recommend
you to use this air conditioner in conjunction with other kinds of heating
appliance.

■ Automatic defrosting operation

When outdoor temperature is very low with high humidity, frost may
form on the outdoor unit during the heating operation, and it could
reduce the operating performance of the product.
For frost protection, a microcomputer-controlled automatic defrost
function is equipped in this air conditioner.
If frost forms, the air conditioner will temporarily stop, and defrost circuit
will operate briefly (maximum of 15 minutes.)
[ ] indicator on the indoor unit blinks during this operation.

blinks to notify you that there has been a timer fault. In such a case,
reset the clock and timer settings.

■ Malfunctions caused by other electrical

devices
Use of other electrical appliances such as an electric shaver or nearby
use of a wireless radio transmitter may cause the malfunction of the air
conditioner.
If you encounter such a malfunction, turn off the circuit breaker once.
Then turn it on again, and resume operation by using the remote
controller.
