Abnormal Operation

Check the following points before calling for repairs or service. If the malfunction persists,
please contact your nearest servicenter.
Symptoms
• The air conditioner does not operate.
• Air conditioner produces loud noise during
operation.
• The air conditioner does not cool or warm
effectively.
• Remote control / display doesn't work.
Solution
• This is to protect the air conditioner. Wait until the air
conditioner begins to operate.
• This is the sound of refrigerant flowing inside the air
conditioner. This is normal.
• Condensation occurs when the airflow from the air
conditioner cools the room.
• This may be a damp smell emitted by the wall,
carpet, furniture or clothing in the room.
• This is to remove odours emitted by the surroundings.
• In COOL/DRY operation, moisture in the air
condenses into water on the cool surface of outdoor
unit piping that causes dripping.
• This is to melt the frost which has accumulated on
the outdoor unit (defrosting operating.) This will take
no longer than about 12 minutes. Water drips from
the outdoor unit. Wait until this operation ends. (The
power indicator will light up.)
(Frost accumulates on the outdoor unit when the
outdoor temperature is low and humidity is high.)
• This is to prevent undesired cooling effect during
heating operation.
Please check
• Has the circuit breaker been tripped?
• Is the timer being used correctly?
• Is the installation work slanted?
• Is the front grille closed properly?
• Has the temperature been set incorrectly?
• Are the filters dirty?
• Are the intake or outlet vents of the outdoor unit
obstructed?
• Are all windows and doors closed?
• Batteries not inserted?
• Batteries correctly inserted (+) and (–)?
• Are the batteries dead?
