Indoor unit

Outdoor unit

Remote controller

Only use the remote controller provided with the unit.
Do not use other remote controllers. If 2 or more indoor units are installed in proximity to one another, an indoor unit that is not intended to be operated may respond to the remote controller.

PREPARATION BEFORE OPERATION

Installing the remote controller batteries

Note:

• Make sure the polarity of the batteries is correct.
• Do not use manganese batteries and leaking batteries. The remote controller could malfunction.
• Do not use rechargeable batteries.
• The battery replacement indicator lights up when the battery is running low.
  In about 7 days after the indicator starts lights up, the remote controller stops working.
• Replace all batteries with new ones of the same type.
• Batteries can be used for approximately 1 year. However, batteries with expired shelf lives last shorter.
• Press RESET gently using a thin instrument. If the RESET button is not pressed, the remote controller may not operate correctly.

Setting current time

Note:
How to set remote controller exclusively for a particular indoor unit

A maximum of 4 indoor units with wireless remote controllers can be used in a room.
To operate the indoor units individually with each remote controller, assign a number to each remote controller according to the number of the indoor unit.

This setting can be set only when all the following conditions are met:

• The remote controller is powered OFF.

1. Hold down button on the remote controller for 2 seconds to enter the pairing mode.
2. Press button again and assign a number to each remote controller.
   Each press of button advances the number in the following order: 1 → 2 → 3 → 4.
3. Press button to complete the pairing setting.
   After you turn the breaker ON, the remote controller that first sends a signal to an indoor unit will be regarded as the remote controller for the indoor unit.

Once they are set, the indoor unit will only receive the signal from the assigned remote controller afterwards.

SELECTING OPERATION MODES

Press to select operation mode. Each press changes mode in the following order:

AUTO mode (Auto change over)

The unit selects the operation mode according to the difference between the room temperature and the set temperature. During AUTO mode, the unit changes mode (COOL↔HEAT) when the room temperature is about 2°C away from the set temperature for more than 15 minutes.

Note: Auto Mode is not recommended if this indoor unit is connected to a MXZ type outdoor unit. When several indoor units are operated simultaneously, the unit may not be able to switch operation mode between COOL and HEAT. In this case, the indoor unit becomes standby mode (Refer to table of Operation indicator lamp).

COOL mode

Enjoy cool air at your desired temperature.
Note: Do not operate COOL mode at very low outside temperatures (less than -10°C). Water condensed in the unit may drip and wet or damage furniture, etc.

DRY mode

Dehumidify your room. The room may be cooled slightly.
Temperature cannot be set during DRY mode.

HEAT mode

Enjoy warm air at your desired temperature.

FAN mode

Circulate the air in your room.

Note: After COOL/DRY mode operation, it is recommended to operate in the FAN mode to dry inside the indoor unit.

Operation indicator lamp

The operation indicator lamp shows the operation state of the unit.

FAN SPEED AND AIRFLOW DIRECTION ADJUSTMENT

Fan speed

Press to select fan speed. Each press changes fan speed in the following order:

• Two short beeps are heard from the indoor unit when set to AUTO.
• Use higher fan speed to cool/heat the room quicker. It is recommended to lower the fan speed once the room is cool/warm.
• Use lower fan speed for quiet operation.

Multi system operation
When several indoor units are operated simultaneously by one outdoor unit for heating operation, the temperature of the airfl ow may be low. In this case, it is recommended to set the fan speed to AUTO.

Up-down Airflow direction

Press to select airflow direction. Each press changes airflow direction in the following order:

(AUTO) ………The vane is set to the most effi cient airfl ow direction. COOL/DRY/FAN:horizontal position. HEAT:position (4).
(Manual) …….For efficient air conditioning, select the upper position for COOL/DRY, and the lower position for HEAT. If the lower position is selected during COOL/DRY, the vane automatically moves to the upward position after 0.5 to 1 hour to prevent any condensation from dripping.
(Swing) ………The vane moves up a nd down intermittently.

• Two short beeps are heard from the indoor unit when set to AUTO.
• Always use the remote controller when changing the direction of airflow. Moving the horizontal vanes with your hands causes them to malfunction.
• When the breaker is turned on, the horizontal vanes’ position will be reset in about a minute, then the operation will start. The same is true in the emergency cooling operation.
• When the horizontal vanes seem to be in an abnormal position,

Left-right Airflow direction

To change the horizontal airflow direction.
Move the vertical vane manually before starting operation.

Note: If the vertical vanes are adjusted, be sure to return the horizontal vanes to the original closed position.

I-SAVE OPERATION

• A simplified set back function enables to recall the preferred (preset) setting with a single push of the button. Press the button again and you can go back to the previous setting in an instance.
•  i-save operation cannot be set on the weekly timer.
• Press during COOL, ECONO COOL, or HEAT mode to select i-save mode. Set the temperature, fan speed, and airflow direction.
• The same setting is selected from the next time by simply pressing
• Two settings can be saved. (One for COOL/ECONO COOL, one for HEAT)
• Select the appropriate temperature, fan speed, and airflow direction according to your room.
• Normally, the minimum temperature setting in HEAT mode is 16°C.

However, during i-save operation only, the minimum temperature setting is 10°C.

Note:
Example of use:

1. Low energy mode
   Set the temperature 2°C to 3°C warmer in COOL and cooler in HEAT mode. This setting is suitable for unoccupied room, and while you are sleeping.
2. Saving frequently used settings
   Save your preferred setting for COOL/ECONO COOL and HEAT. This enables you to select your preferred setting with a single push of the button.

ECONO COOL OPERATION

Swing airflow (change of air flow) makes you feel cooler than stationary airflow. The set temperature and the airflow direction are automatically changed by the microprocessor. It is possible to perform cooling operation with keeping comfort. As a result energy can be saved.
