•
Ensure that the drain trap is properly water-sealed.
In case of failure
Warning:
- If the drain trap is modified, or is not water-sealed, the trap will not function
and a water leak may occur. Inject water into the hose during the periodic
check (six-monthly) to check water-sealing.
•
Never remodel the unit. Consult your dealer for any repair service. Improper
repair work can result in water leakage, electric shock, fire, etc.
Warning:
•
If the remote controller displays an error indication, the unit does not
run, or there is any abnormality, stop operation and contact your dealer.
Leaving the unit as it is under such conditions can result in fire or failure.
If the power breaker is frequently activated, get in touch with your dealer.
Leaving it as it is can result in fire or failure.
If the refrigeration gas blows out or leaks, stop the operation of the unit,
thoroughly ventilate the room, and contact your dealer. Leaving the unit
as it is can result in accidents due to oxygen deficiency.
•
Do not splash water over the unit and do not touch the unit with wet
hands. An electric shock may result.
•
•
Do not spray combustible gas close to the unit. Fire may result.
Do not place a gas heater or any other open-flame appliance where it will
be exposed to the air discharged from the unit. Incomplete combustion
may result.
•
•
Warning:
•
•
•
Do not remove the front panel or the fan guard from the outdoor unit
when it is running.You could be injured if you touch rotating, hot or high-
voltage parts.
When the unit is not to be used for a long time
•
•
•
If the unit is not to be used for a long time due to a seasonal change, etc.,
run it for 4 - 5 hours with the air blowing until the inside is completely dry.
Failing to do so can result in the growth of unhygienic, unhealthy mold in
scattered areas throughout the room.
When it is not to be used for an extended time, keep the [power supply]
turned OFF.
If the power supply is kept on, several watts or several tens of watts will
be wasted. Also, the accumulation of dust, etc., can result in fire.
Keep the power switched ON for more than 12 hours before starting op-
eration. Do not turn the power supply OFF during seasons of heavy use.
Doing so can result in failure.
Never insert fingers, sticks etc. into the intakes or outlets, otherwise in-
jury may result, since the fan inside the unit rotates at high speed. Exer-
cise particular care when children are present.
If you detect odd smells, stop using the unit, turn off the power switch
and consult your dealer. Otherwise, a breakdown, electric shock or fire
may result.
When you notice exceptionally abnormal noise or vibration, stop opera-
tion, turn off the power switch, and contact your dealer.

6. The smart way to use
Even minimal steps to care for your unit can help make its use far more
effective in terms of air-conditioning effect, electricity charges, etc.
Prevent intrusion of heat during air-cooling
•
To prevent the intrusion of heat during cooling operation, provide a curtain or a
blind on the window to block out direct sunlight. Also, do not open the entrance
or exit except in cases of dire necessity.
Clean the filter thoroughly
•
If the screen of the air filter becomes clogged, the airflow and air-conditioning
effect can be significantly reduced.
Carry out ventilation sometimes
Further, if the condition is left unattended, failure can result. It is particularly
important to clean the filter at the beginning of the cooling and heating sea-
sons. (When profuse dust and dirt have accumulated, clean the filter thor-
oughly.)
•
Since the air periodically gets dirty in a room that is kept closed for a long time,
ventilation is sometimes necessary. When gas appliances are used together
with the unit, special precautions must be taken. If the “LOSSNAY” ventilation
unit developed by our company is used, you can perform ventilation with less
waste. For details on this unit, consult with your dealer.
7. Caring for the unit
Always have filter maintenance performed by a service person.
Before care-taking, turn the power supply OFF.
How to clean
•
Clear dust away lightly or clean it up with a vacuum cleaner. In the case of
severe staining, wash the filter in lukewarm water mixed with dissolved neutral
detergent or water, and then rinse off the detergent completely. After washing,
dry it and fix it back into place.
Caution:
•
•
Before you start cleaning, stop operation and turn OFF the power supply.
Remember that the fan is rotating inside at high speed, posing a serious
risk of injury.
Caution:
Indoor units are equipped with filters to remove the dust of sucked-in air.
Clean the filters using the methods shown in the following sketches. (The
standard filter should normally be cleaned once a week, and the long-life
filter at the beginning of each season.)
•
•
Do not dry the filter by exposing it to direct sunlight or warming it using
fire, etc. Doing so can result in the deformation of the filter.

If operation stops due to a power failure, the [restart-preventing circuit at power failure] operates and disables unit operation even after power restoration. In this case,
press the [ON/OFF] button again and start operation.
If malfunctions persist after you have checked the above, turn the power supply OFF and contact your dealer with information about the product name, the nature of the
malfunction, etc. If the display of “[check]” and (4 digit) check code flashes, tell the dealer contents of the display (check code). Never attempt to repair by yourself.
The following symptoms are not unit failures:
•
The air blown out from the unit can sometimes give off odors.This is due to cigarette smoke contained in the air of the room, the smell of cosmetics, the walls, furniture,
etc., absorbed in the unit.
•
•
A hissing noise can be heard immediately after the unit is started or stopped. This is the sound of the refrigeration flowing inside the unit. This is normal.
The unit sometimes snaps or clicks at the beginning or end of cooling operation. This is the sound of friction on the front panel and other sections due to expansion and
contraction caused by temperature change. This is normal.
•
A white mist of steam may be emitted from the indoor unit when operation commences at high indoor temperature or humidity.
9. Installation, transferring works, and checking
Regarding place for installation
Consult with your dealer for details on installation and transferring the installation.
•
Never connect the grounding wire to a gas pipe, water pipe, arrester, or
telephone grounding wire. For details, consult with your dealer.
In some types of installation sites, the installation of an earth leakage
breaker is mandatory. For details, consult with your dealer.
•
Caution:
Never install the unit where there is a risk of leakage of flammable gas.
If gas leaks and accumulates around the unit, fire can result.
Regarding transfer of installation
•
When removing and reinstalling the unit when you enlarge your home, re-
model, or move, consult with your dealer in advance to ascertain the cost of
the professional engineering work required for transferring the installation.
Never install the unit at the following place:
•
•
•
•
•
•
where there is a lot of machine oil
near the ocean and beach areas where there is salt air.
where humidity is high
Caution:
When moving or reinstalling the unit, consult with your dealer. Defective in-
stallation can result in electric shock, fire, etc.
where there are hot springs nearby
where there is sulphurous gas
Regarding noise
where there is a high-frequency processing machinery (a high-frequency welder,
etc.)
•
•
•
In installing work, choose a place that can fully bear the weight of the unit, and
where noise and vibration can be reduced.
•
•
•
•
where acid solution is frequently used
Choose a place where cool or warm air and noise from the outdoor air outlet of
the unit does not inconvenience the neighbors.
where special sprays are frequently used
Install the indoor unit horizontally. Otherwise, water leakage can result.
If any alien object is placed near the outdoor air outlet of the unit, decreased
performance and increased noise can result. Avoid placing any obstacles ad-
jacent to the air outlet.
Take sufficient measures against noise when installing the units at hospitals or
communication-related businesses.
If the unit is used in any of the above-mentioned environments, frequent opera-
tional failure can be expected. It is advisable to avoid these types of installation
sites.
•
If the unit produces any abnormal sound, consult with your dealer.
Maintenance and inspection
For further details, consult with your dealer.
•
If the unit is used throughout several seasons, the insides can get dirty, reduc-
ing the performance.
Regarding electrical work
Depending upon the conditions of usage, foul odors can be generated and
drainage can deteriorate due to dust and dirt, etc.
Caution:
•
The electrical work must be undertaken by a person who is qualified as
an electrical engineer according to the [technical standard respecting
electrical installation], [internal wiring rules], and the installation instruc-
tion manual with the absolute use of exclusive circuits.The use of other
products with the power source can result in burnt-out beakers and fuses.

10. Checking Drainage
Check that water is able to drain smoothly. If water is unable to drain smoothly, check for blockage of the grooves in the drain pan and the piping trap by paper particles etc.
Carefully clean the grooves in the drain pan and the piping trap to prevent further blockage.
Ensure that the trap is always water-sealed.
11. Checking V Belts
1. Adjust parallel of the fan and motor pulleys in accordance with Fig.B-1.
2. Adjust the tension of each V belt so that the deflection load (W) at the optimum deflection (r= 5 mm) is as shown in Fig.B-2.
3. It is recommended that the belt be adjusted to the optimum tension as shown in Fig.B-2 after it has been run-in on the pulley (24 - 28 hours operation).When a new belt
is fitted, adjust the deflection load (W) to approximately 1.3 times the maximum value.
4. It is recommended that the V belt be replaced every 8000 hours. It has reached the end of its life when it has stretched by approximately 2% (including an initial stretch
of approximately 1%) of the initial circumference.

performance.
Please ask your dealer how to clean it.
13. Greasing the Fan Bearings
Replenish bearing grease annually to ensure that the bearings may be used with
confidence a long time. Such replenishment extends the life of both the grease and
the bearings. Use the following grease.
