 SELECTING OPERATION MODES
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 furni-
ture, 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 SPEED AND AIRFLOW Airflow direction

DIRECTION ADJUSTMENT (AUTO) .........The vane is set to the most efficient airflow 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 and down intermittently.

■ 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.

(AUTO) (Silent) (Low) (Med.) (High) (Super High)

• 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.

Note:

• Two short beeps are heard from the indoor unit when set to AUTO.
• Always use the remote controller when changing the direction of air-
flow. Moving the horizontal vanes with your hands causes them to mal-
function.
• 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, see
