Operating Instructions
Adjust the airow direction to avoid discomfort or uneven room temperatures.
To Set the Up/Down Airflow Direction (Vertical Airflow):
Use the remote controller to set the vertical airow while the unit is operating.
Press the swing button to adjust the horizontal louver in increments of 6°, or
hold the button for more than two seconds to set the louver to swing up and
down automatically. Please refer to the “Remote Controller Instructions”
for details.
To Set the Left/Right Airflow Direction (Horizontal Airflow):
Move the vertical louver manually. (Refer to the illustration to the right.)
IMPORTANT: Disconnect the power supply before adjusting the vertical louver.
• Do not operate the air conditioner for long periods in cooling or dehumidifying mode with the airow
direction set downward, or condensation may form on the surface of the horizontal louver and drop onto the oor or furniture.
• Do not move the horizontal louver manually unless it is necessary. Always use the remote controller.
• When the air conditioner is started immediately after being stopped, the horizontal louver might not move for approximately
10 seconds.
• Setting the horizontal louver so the open angle is too small may overly restrict the airow and reduce performance.
• Do not operate the unit with the horizontal louver closed.
• When the unit is initially connected to a power source, the horizontal louver may generate a sound for 10 seconds.
This is normal operation.
CAUTION
Auto Operation
• When the air conditioner is in auto mode, it will automatically select between cooling, heating and fan-only
operation to meet the set operating temperature.
• Select desired settings manually if the auto mode is uncomfortable.
Economy Operation
Press the economy button to begin economy mode. During cooling, heating or auto operation, the air condi-
tioner will automatically increase (cooling) or decrease (heating) the set temperature by 2°F/1°C per hour for the
rst two hours, maintain the new temperature for ve hours, and then turn off.
Dehumidifying Operation
The unit regulates temperature while it is dehumidifying by turning cooling or fan-only operation on and off as
necessary. The fan speed is low.
Optimal Operation
To achieve optimal performance:
• Adjust the temperature to achieve the highest comfort level. Do not adjust the unit to excessive
temperature levels.
• Close doors and windows while operating on cool or heat mode.
• Use the timer-on button on the remote controller to select the time for the air conditioner to start.
• Do not put any object near air inlet or outlet because doing so may reduce the air conditioner’s efciency and
the air conditioner may stop operating.
• Clean the air lter every two weeks. (see page 6)
• Do not operate the unit with the horizontal louver in the closed position.
Turbo Function
The turbo function enables the unit to reach the preset temperature more quickly than under normal opera-
tion. On cooling or heating mode, the unit will blow air using a very high fan speed. Press the turbo button on
the remote controller to activate or deactivate the accelerated cooling or heating operation.

Cleaning the Air Filter
A clogged air lter reduces the efciency of this unit. Clean the lter every two weeks.
1. Lift the indoor unit panel until it remains xed at an angle with a clicking sound.
2. Pull up on the air lter’s handle to pull the lter from its holder, then pull the lter down out of the unit.
3. Clean the lter with a vacuum cleaner or water, then dry it in a cool place.
4. Remove the carbon and silver ion lters from their supporting frames. Clean these lters at least once a
month with a vacuum cleaner, and replace them every four to ve months.
5. Reinstall the carbon and silver ion lters in their positions. Insert the upper portion of the air lter back
into the unit, taking care that the left and right edges line up correctly, and place the lter into position.
• Verify the power source and circuit breaker are turned off before cleaning the unit.
• If the indoor unit is very dirty, wipe it down with a cool, damp cloth. Dry the unit with another cloth.
• Do not use a chemically treated cloth or duster to clean the unit.
• Do not use benzene, thinner, polishing powder or similar solvents for cleaning. These may cause the plastic surface to crack or deform.
• Never use water hotter than 104°F/40°C to clean the front panel because it could deform or discolor the panel
• Do not touch the metal parts of the unit when removing the lter. Injuries can occur when handling sharp metal edges.
• Do not use water to clean the inside of the air conditioner. Exposure to water can destroy the insulation, possibly leading to
electric shock.
Cleaning the Grille, Case and Remote Controller
Turn the system off before cleaning. To clean, wipe with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use bleach or abrasives.
Maintenance
Before idling the unit for a long time, perform the following:
• Operate the fan for half a day to dry the inside of the unit.
• Turn off the air conditioner and disconnect the power.
• The outdoor unit requires periodic maintenance and cleaning, which should be performed by a licensed
professional.
Checks Before Operation
• Verify the wiring is not loose or disconnected.
• Verify the air lter is installed.
• If the air conditioner has not been used for a long time, check that the air outlet and inlet are not obstructed.

Operation Tips
The following events may occur during normal operation.
1. The compressor will not restart immediately after being stopped.
• To protect the compressor, it cannot restart for 3-4 minutes after it stops.
2. The indoor unit produces a white mist.
• The unit may generate white mist during cool mode if the room has a high relative humidity and there is
a large temperature difference between the air inlet and air outlet.
• The unit may produce white mist during heat mode after defrosting because of the moisture generated.
3. The air conditioner produces a low noise.
• The air conditioner may produce a low hissing sound when the compressor is running or has just stopped
running. The sound is caused by the refrigerant owing or coming to a stop.
• The air conditioner may produce a low squeaking noise when the compressor is running or has just
stopped running. The sound is caused by heat expansion and cold contraction of the plastic parts in the
unit when the temperature changes.
• The louver may produce a noise as it returns to its original position when the air conditioner is turned on.
4. The indoor unit blows out dust.
• It is normal for the air conditioner to blow out dust when it has not been used for a long time or during
rst use of the unit.
5. The indoor unit produces an unusual smell.
• The indoor unit may give off smells absorbed from building material, furniture or smoke.
6. The air conditioner switches to fan-only mode from cool or heat mode.
• When the indoor temperature reaches the temperature setting on the air conditioner, the compressor will
stop automatically, and the air conditioner will switch to fan-only mode. The compressor will start again
when the indoor temperature rises or falls.
7. Condensation forms on the indoor unit.
• Condensation may form on the indoor unit during cool mode if relative humidity is higher than 80%.
To reduce condensation, adjust the horizontal louver to the maximum air outlet position and select high
fan speed.
8. A power failure during operation stops the unit completely.
• When the power is restored, the auto-restart function restarts the unit with all the previous settings
preserved by the memory function.
9. The unit malfunctions without apparent cause.
• Lightning or a signal from a wireless phone may cause the unit to malfunction. Disconnect the unit from
the power source, then reconnect it. Push the on/off button on the remote controller to restart operation.
