Warning  
If refrigerant gas blows off during the work, do not touch the refrigerant gas as it may cause frostbite.  
Prohibit  
If refrigerant gas leaks during the work, ventilate the room.  
If refrigerant gas catches fire, harmful gas may be generated.  
Do not mix any gas other than the specified refrigerant gas in the refrigerating cycle.  
If air or other contaminants mix with the gas, pressure will become extremely high in the refrigerating cycle,  
which may cause a unit breakdown."  
Prohibit  
When the welded section of the compressor intake or discharge pipe is to be disconnected, perform it in  
a well-ventilated place after sufficiently recovering the refrigerant gas.  
Any residue gas may jet out refrigerant or refrigerating machine oil, which may cause an injury.  
When the work is to be performed in a high place (About 2 meters or more), make sure to wear a safety helmet,  
gloves and safety belt. Insufficient safety gear may cause a serious injury in case of a fall.  
When the unit is to be relocated, confirm that the new installation location has sufficient strength for the weight of the unit.  
Insufficient strength of the installation location and incomplete installation work may cause an injury due to  
the unit falling.  
When the remote controller batteries are replaced, dispose of the old batteries out of the reach of children.  
If a child swallows a battery, make sure that the child gets immediate medical attention.  
Caution  
Do not wash the air conditioner with water, as this may cause an electric shock or fire.  
Prohibit  
For the repair work in places with high humidity or moisture, make sure to ground the unit.  
Failure to do so may cause an electric shock.  
Confirm that the component attachment position, wiring condition, soldering condition and connector connection  
are normal.  
If not, it may cause overheating or fire.  
Confirm that the temperature around the compressor is not too high, and then perform the repair work.  
Failure to do so may cause a burn.  
Perform welding work in a place with good ventilation.  
If the work is performed in a poorly ventilated area, it might cause a lack of oxygen.  
If the installation plate or attachment frame has deteriorated due to corrosion, etc., replace it.  
Failure to do so may cause an injury due to the unit falling.  
When the cleaning is to be performed, make sure to turn off the power and pull out the plug.  
Touching the fan that is rotating at high speed may result in an injury.  
When the indoor unit is to be removed, do not place it on an incline.  
Doing so may cause wet furniture because water left inside may trickle down.  
Prohibit  
Prohibit  
Do not hold the sharp end of the unit or the aluminum fins, as it may cause an injury to your hand or finger.  
After repairs, make sure to measure the insulation resistance and confirm that the value is 1 Mohm or more.  
Any insulation error may cause an electric shock.  
After repairs, make sure to check the drainage of the indoor unit.  
Inappropriate drainage may cause wet furniture and floors due to water leakage.

7. FUNCTIONS  
7-1. Operation Functions  
Emergency operation  
SENSOR DRY  
Emergency operation is available when the remote  
controller malfunctions, has been lost, or otherwise  
cannot be used.  
During DRY operation, the system adjusts the room  
temperature and fan speed according to the conditions in the  
room, in order to maintain a comfortable room environment.  
SENSOR DRY operation  
To operate the system, press the OPERATION button,  
which is also used as the receiver, below the unit display.  
Each time this button is pressed, the OPERATION lamp  
changes color to indicate the type of operation. Select the  
desired type of operation.  
DRY operation is as shown in the figure below.  
Load  
COOL zone  
A zone  
COOL  
(GREEN)  
STOP  
(Lamp Off)  
B zone  
The set temperature is 4°F(2°C) below the detected room  
temperature in the case of cooling operation.  
Conditions are monitored at all  
times when the room temperature  
is below 59°F(15°C).  
DRY A  
The compressor operation frequency varies.  
The indoor fan operates with 1/f fluctuation.  
DRY B  
The compressor operates at a low operating frequency.  
The indoor fan operates with 1/f fluctuation.  
Monitor  
Monitoring operation takes place when the room temperature  
is below 59°F(15°C), or more than 5°F(3°C) below the set  
temperature.  
When the monitoring range is entered, the compressor stops,  
and the indoor fan operates with 1/f fluctuation.  
NOTE  
(CLxx models only)  
The Sensor Dry operation during the Low Ambient Cooling  
Mode (outside air temperature:59°F(15°C) or lower) is as  
follows.  
DRY A  
and  
DRY B  
The compressor operates a cycle of 3 minutes ON and 6  
minutes OFF repeatedly.  
PAM- control  
In order to further improve inverter performance, control is  
switched between PWM control at low operation speeds, and  
PAM control at high operation speeds, making the most  
effective use of power.

HIGH POWER  
NIGHT SETBACK  
This function acts to raise the power but keeps the AC system in  
the same operating mode.  
This function is set with the HIGH POWER button on the remote  
controller.  
(It can be set regardless of the temperature and fan speed  
settings.)  
When NIGHT SETBACK operation is set, the temperature and  
fan speed settings will be adjusted automatically to allow  
comfortable sleep.  
When NIGHT SETBACK operation is set, " mark" appears on  
the remote controller. The main unit display lamp also becomes  
dimmer.  
HIGH POWER operation from remote controller  
COOL and DRY modes  
The unit operates at maximum output for 30 minutes,  
regardless of the desired temperature.

8. TROUBLESHOOTING (BEFORE CALLING FOR SERVICE)  
8-1. Precautions before Performing Inspection or Repair  
After checking the self-diagnostics monitor, turn the power OFF before starting inspection or repair.  
High-capacity electrolytic capacitors are used inside the outdoor unit controller (inverter). They retain an electrical charge  
(charging voltage DC 310V) even after the power is turned OFF, and some time is required for the charge to dissipate. Be  
careful not to touch any electrified parts before the controller LED (red) turns OFF.  
If the outdoor controller is normal, approximately 30 seconds will be required for the charge to dissipate. However, allow  
at least 5 minutes for the charge to dissipate if there is thought to be any trouble with the outdoor controller.  
8-2. Method of Self-Diagnostics  
Follow the procedure below to perform detailed trouble diagnostics.  
< Clock display >  
Test run mode  
NOTE  
Self-diagnostics mode  
1:If the operation lamp blinks every 0.5 seconds immediately when the  
power is turned ON, there is an external ROM (OTP data) failure on the  
indoor circuit board, or a ROM socket insertion problem, or the ROM  
has not been installed.  
2:The failure mode is stored in memory even when the power is not ON.  
Follow the procedure below to perform diagnostics.

8-3. Checking the Indoor and Outdoor Units  
(1) Checking the indoor unit  
No.  
Control  
Check items (unit operation)  
• The rated voltage must be present between inter-unit wirings 1 and 2.  
1
Use the remote controller to operate the  
unit in "TEST run" mode. To determine  
whether the mode is currently in  
"TEST run" mode, check the 4 indicator  
lamps on the unit. If all 4 are blinking,  
the current mode is "TEST run."  
Connect a 5 k ohm resistor between inter-unit wirings 2 and 3. When the  
voltage at both ends is measured, approximately 12 to 15V DC must  
be output and the multimeter pointer must bounce once every 8  
seconds.  
Or instead of measuring the voltage, you can insert an LED jig and  
check that the LED flickers once every 8 seconds.  
If there are no problems with the above, then check the outdoor unit.  
For the "Test run" procedure, refer to "4. How to Test Run the Air Conditioner" on Appendix B.  
(2) Checking the outdoor unit  
No.  
Control  
Check items (unit operation)

8-4. Trouble Diagnosis of Fan Motor  
8-4-1. Indoor Fan Motor  
This indoor DC fan motor contains an internal control PCB. Therefore, it is not possible to measure the coil  
resistance, and the following procedure should be used to check the motor.  
To perform diagnosis, operate the unit in cooling mode with indoor fan speed "High". Next, make sure that the  
indoor unit receive the signals from the remote controller when the ON/OFF operation button is pressed.  
(A) Turn OFF the power before connecting or disconnecting the motor connectors.  
(B) When performing voltage measurement at the indoor controller connector for (3) in the table  
below, the DC motor will trip and voltage output will stop approximately 1 minute after operation  
is started. For this reason, to measure the voltage again, turn OFF the unit once using the  
remote controller, and then start the air conditioner again.  
Important:  
[Trouble symptom 1] The fan does not stop when the unit stops. Indoor unit controller trouble.  
[Trouble symptom 2] The fan motor does not rotate when the unit is operating.  
(Diagnostic procedure)  
* Disconnect the motor connectors and measure the voltage at the DC motor connectors on the indoor  
unit controller (3 locations).  
Measurement location  
Normal value  
DC 230 V or more  
DC 14 V or more  
(1) Vm-Gnd: Between pin 1 and pin 3  
(2) Vcc-Gnd: Between pin 4 and pin 3  
(3) Vs-Gnd: Between pin 5 and pin 3  
Fluctuation between DC 1.7 to 6.1 V  
(Diagnostic results)  
All of the above measured values are normal. Fan motor trouble (Replace the motor.)  
Any one of the above measured values is not normal. Indoor unit controller trouble (Replace the controller .)  
(Reference)  
DC motor connector pin arrangement  
Pin 1: Vm (red)  
Pin 2: Not used  
Pin 3: Gnd (black)  
Pin 4: Vcc (white)  
Pin 5: Vs (yellow)  
Pin 6: PG (blue)  
[Trouble symptom 3] Motor rotates for some time (several seconds), but then quickly stops, when the indoor unit  
operates.  
(There is trouble in the system that provides feedback of motor rotation speed from the  
motor to the indoor unit controller.)  
[Trouble symptom 4] Fan motor rotation speed does not change during indoor unit operation.  
[Trouble symptom 5] Fan motor rotation speed varies excessively during indoor unit operation.  
(Remedy for symptom 3 to 5)  
It is not possible to identify whether the trouble is indoor unit controller trouble or motor trouble.  
Therefore, first replace the indoor unit controller, then (if necessary) replace the DC motor.

SPECIAL REMARKS  
‘‘DRY’’ ( ) Operation  
How it works?  
Once the room temperature reaches the level that was set, the unit’s operation  
frequency is changed automatically.  
During DRY operation, the fan speed automatically runs at lower speed for  
providing a comfortable breeze.  
‘‘DRY’’ operation is not possible if the indoor temperature is 59 °F or less.  
Cooling ( ) Operation  
Sometimes the indoor unit may not get to the set fan speed such as LOW and  
QUIET under cool operation at very low outdoor temperatures due to the  
indoor unit being protected from ice or frost when combined with the outdoor  
unit for Low Ambient Cooling models.  
In the event of power failure, the unit will stop. When the power is resumed,  
the unit will restart automatically within 15 minutes by the remote controller.  
Power failure during  
operation  
Clicking Sound  
Clicking sound is heard from  
the air conditioner  
In cooling operation, any plastic parts may shrink due to a sudden  
temperature change. In this event, a clicking sound may occur. This is normal,  
and the sound will soon disappear.  
The remote controller sends the setting condition to the air conditioner  
regularly at five minute intervals.

TIPS FOR ENERGY SAVING  
Avoid  
Do  
Do not block neither the air intake nor the air outlet. It may cause less  
performance, and may leads to malfunctions.  
Do not let direct sunlight into the room. Use sunshades, blinds or curtains. If  
the walls and ceiling of the room are warmed by the sun, it will take longer to  
cool the room.  
Always try to keep the air filter clean. (Refer to “CARE AND CLEANING”.) A  
clogged filter will impair the performance of the unit.  
To prevent conditioned air from escaping, keep windows, doors and any other  
openings closed.

SPECIAL REMARKS  
‘‘DRY’’ ( ) Operation  
How it works?  
Once the room temperature reaches the level that was set, the unit’s operation  
frequency is changed automatically.  
During DRY operation, the fan speed automatically runs at lower speed for  
providing a comfortable breeze.  
‘‘DRY’’ operation is not possible if the indoor temperature is 59 °F or less.  
Cooling ( ) Operation  
Sometimes the indoor unit may not get to the set fan speed such as LOW and  
QUIET under cool operation at very low outdoor temperatures due to the  
indoor unit being protected from ice or frost when combined with the outdoor  
unit for Low Ambient Cooling models.  
In the event of power failure, the unit will stop. When the power is resumed,  
the unit will restart automatically within 15 minutes by the remote controller.  
Power failure during  
operation  
Clicking Sound  
Clicking sound is heard from  
the air conditioner  
In cooling operation, any plastic parts may shrink due to a sudden  
temperature change. In this event, a clicking sound may occur. This is normal,  
and the sound will soon disappear.  
The remote controller sends the setting condition to the air conditioner  
regularly at five minute intervals.

TIPS FOR ENERGY SAVING  
Avoid  
Do  
Do not block neither the air intake nor the air outlet. It may cause less  
performance, and may leads to malfunctions.  
Do not let direct sunlight into the room. Use sunshades, blinds or curtains. If  
the walls and ceiling of the room are warmed by the sun, it will take longer to  
cool the room.  
Always try to keep the air filter clean. (Refer to “CARE AND CLEANING”.) A  
clogged filter will impair the performance of the unit.  
To prevent conditioned air from escaping, keep windows, doors and any other  
openings closed.

* If total tubing length becomes 150 to 200 ft. (Max.) or 150 to 230 ft. (Max.), charge additional refrigerant (R410A) by 0.22 oz./ft.  
No additional charge of compressor oil is necessary. For more detailed charging information, refer to the Technical & Service Manual.  
2-2. Embedding the Tubing and Wiring  
Before beginning embedding installation work, consult  
fully with agencies or offices related to the building’s  
foundation, construction, electricity, and water.  
Wait to make connections to the embedded portion.  
Each connection step is described later in this  
manual.  
Securely cover the end of the embedded tubing to  
prevent intrusion of dirt or moisture.  
If an embedded tube is to be left for a long time, fill  
the tube with nitrogen and seal both ends securely.  
If a tube is left open for an extended time, moisture in  
the air inside the tubing may condense into water  
droplets, and lead to water contamination of the refrig-  
erant circuit.  
In order to prevent insulation breakdown and ground  
faults, do not allow wiring ends to come in contact with  
rainwater, or be subjected to condensation or dew.  
Apply sufficient thermal insulation to the refrigerant  
tubing and drain pipes.

Right tubing  
outlet  
(1) Before wiring, confirm the rated voltage of the unit as  
shown on its nameplate, then carry out the wiring  
closely following the wiring diagram.  
(2) Provide a power outlet to be used exclusively for  
each unit, with a power supply disconnect and cir-  
cuit breaker for overcurrent protection provided in  
the exclusive line.  
Fig. 21  
(3) To prevent possible hazard due to insulation failure,  
the unit must be grounded.  
(4) Each wiring connection must be done tightly and in  
accordance with the wiring system diagram. Wrong  
wiring may cause the unit to misoperate or become  
damaged.  
Fig. 22  
(5) Do not allow wiring to touch the refrigerant tubing,  
compressor, or any moving parts of the fan.  
(6) Unauthorized changes in the internal wiring can be  
very dangerous. The manufacturer will accept no  
responsibility for any damage or misoperation that  
occurs as a result of such unauthorized changes.
