FAN SPEED Button This determines the fan speed. Every time you press this button, the intensity of circulation will change from (AUTO) to (HIGH) to (MED) to (LOW) to (SILENT)(This button allows selecting the optimal or preferred fan speed for each operation mode). MODE SELECTOR Button Use this button to select the operating mode. Every time you press it, the mode will change from (AUTO) to (HEAT) to (DEHUMIDIFY) and to (COOL) cyclically. SLEEP Button Use this button to set the sleep timer. ( Page 10) SET Button Timer setting reservation. OFF TIMER Button Select the turn OFF timer. ON TIMER Button Select the turn ON timer. AUTO SWING Button Controls the angle of the horizontal air deß ector.

AUTOMATIC OPERATION The device will automatically determine the mode of operation, HEAT or COOL depending on the current room temperature. The selected mode of operation will change when the room temperature varies. I As the settings are stored in memory in the remote controller, you only have to press the (START/STOP) button next time. Press the MODE selector button so that the display indicates the (AUTO) mode of operation. O When AUTO has been selected, the device will automatically determine the mode of operation, HEAT or COOL depending on the current room temperature. However the mode of operation will not change when indoor unit is connected to multi type outdoor unit. O If the mode automatically selected by the unit is not satisfactory, manually change the mode setting (HEAT, DEHUMIDIFY or COOL). 1 START STOP VARIOUS FUNCTIONS I Auto Restart Control G If there is a power failure, operation will be automatically restarted when the power is resumed with previous operation mode. (As the operation is not stopped by remote controller.) G If you intend not to continue the operation when the power is resumed, switch off the power supply. When you switch on the circuit breaker, the operation will be automatically restarted with previous operation mode. Note: 1. If you do not require Auto Restart Control, please consult your sales agent. 2. Auto Restart Control is not available when Timer or Sleep Timer mode is set. Press the (FAN SPEED) button to select AUTO, HIGH, MED, LOW or SILENT. Press the (START/STOP) button. Operation starts. Press the button again to stop operation. 2 Set the desired FAN SPEED with the (FAN SPEED) button (the display indicates the setting).   (AUTO)  (HIGH) (MED) (SILENT) (LOW)

ENGLISH HEATING OPERATION G Use the device for heating when the outdoor temperature is under 21°C. When it is too warm (over 21°C), the heating function may not work in order to protect the device. G In order to maintain reliability of the device, please use this device when outdoor temperature is above –15°C Press the MODE SELECTOR button so that the display indicates (HEAT). Set the desired FAN SPEED with the (FAN SPEED) button (the display indicates the setting). Set the desired room temperature with the ROOM TEMPERATURE setting button (the display indicates the setting). The temperature setting and the actual room temperature may vary depending on conditions. Press the (START/STOP) button. Heating operation starts. Press the button again to stop operation. 1 2 3 START STOP  (AUTO)   (HIGH) (MED) (SILENT) (LOW) Q As the settings are stored in the memory of the remote controller, you only have to press the (START/STOP) button next time. Q During AUTO fan, the fan speed automatically changes as below: O When the difference between room temperature and setting temperature is large, fan starts to run at HI speed. O After room temperature reaches the preset temperature, fan speed will be changed to lower speed to obtain optimum room temperature condition for natural healthy heating. Defrosting will be performed about once an hour when frost forms on the heat exchange of the outdoor unit, for 5~10 minutes each time. During defrosting operation, the operation lamp blinks in a cycle of 3 seconds on and 0.5 second off. The maximum time for defrosting is 20 minutes. However, if the indoor unit is connected to multi type outdoor unit, the maximum time for defrosting is 15 minutes. (If the piping length used is longer than usual, frost is likely to form.) Defrosting

DEHUMIDIFYING OPERATION Use the device for dehumidifying when the room temperature is over 16°C. When it is under 15°C, the dehumidifying function will not work. Set the desired room temperature with the ROOM TEMPERATURE setting button (the display indicates the setting). The range of 20-26ûC is recommended as the room temperature for dehumidifying. Press the (START/STOP) button. Dehumidifying operation starts. Press the button again to stop operation. I As the settings are stored in the memory in the remote controller, you only have to press the (START/STOP) button next time. START STOP Press the MODE SELECTOR button so that the display indicates (DEHUMIDIFY). Press (FAN SPEED) button to select SILENT or LOW fan speed. Q Dehumidifying Function O When the room temperature is higher than the temperature setting: The device will dehumidify the room, reducing the room temperature to the preset level. When the room temperature is lower than the temperature setting: Dehumidifying will be performed at the temperature setting slightly lower than the current room temperature, regardless of the temperature setting. O The preset room temperature may not be reached depending on the number of people present in the room or other room conditions.

ENGLISH COOLING OPERATION Use the device for cooling when the outdoor temperature is –10 ~ 43°C. If indoor humidity is very high (80%), some dew may form on the air outlet grille of the indoor unit. Press the MODE SELECTOR button so that the display indicates (COOL). Set the desired FAN SPEED with the (FAN SPEED) button (the display indicates the setting). Set the desired room temperature with the ROOM TEMPERATURE setting button (the display indicates the setting). The temperature setting and the actual room temperature may vary depending on conditions. Press the (START/STOP) button. Cooling operation starts. Press the button again to stop operation. The cooling function does not start if the temperature setting is higher than the current room temperature (even though the (OPERATION) lamp lights). The cooling function will start as soon as you set the temperature below the current room temperature. START STOP  (AUTO)   (HIGH) (MED) (SILENT) (LOW) Q As the settings are stored in the memory of the remote controller, you only have to press the (START/STOP) button next time. Q During AUTO fan, the fan speed automatically changes as below: O When the difference between room temperature and setting temperature is large, fan starts to run at HI speed. O After room temperature reaches the preset temperature, fan speed will be changed to lower speed to obtain optimum room temperature condition for natural healthy cooling.
