Installation Location
•
We recommend that this air conditioner be installed properly by
qualified installation technicians in accordance with the Installation
Instructions provided with the unit.
•
Before installation, check that the voltage of the electric supply in your
home or office is the same as the voltage shown on the nameplate.
•
Do not install this air conditioner where there are fumes or flammable
gases, or in an extremely humid space such as a greenhouse.
•
Do not install the air conditioner where excessively high heat-
generating objects are placed.
•
To protect the air conditioner from heavy corrosion, avoid installing the
outdoor unit where salty sea water can splash directly onto it or in
sulphurous air near a spa.
The unit may malfunction when the receiver in the indoor unit is
exposed to the inverter lamp light.
Avoid:
•
Electrical Requirements
1. All wiring must conform to the local electrical codes. Consult your
dealer or a qualified electrician for details.
2. Each unit must be properly grounded with a ground (or earth) wire or
through the supply wiring.
3. Wiring must be done by a qualified electrician.
Power mains
•
Power supply: 60 Hz, single-phase, 230/208 volts.
ON
To warm up the system, the power mains must be
turned on at least five (5) hours before operation.
Leave the power mains ON unless you will not be
using this appliance for an extended period.
CAUTION
For ceiling-mounted and recessed-type indoor units, the flaps move for one
minute when the power is supplied to the unit. This is not a malfunction.
Safety Instructions
•
Read this Instruction Manual carefully before using this air conditioner.
If you still have any difficulties or problems, consult your dealer for
help.
This air conditioner is designed to give you comfortable room
•
conditions. Use this only for its intended purpose as described in this
Instruction Manual.
•
Never touch the unit with wet hands.
•
Never use or store gasoline or other flammable vapor or liquid near the
air conditioner — it is very dangerous.
This air conditioner has no ventilator for intaking fresh air from
•
outdoors. You must open doors or windows frequently when you use
gas or oil heating appliances in the same room, which consume a lot of
oxygen from the air. Otherwise there is a risk of suffocation in extreme
cases.
CAUTION
•
Do not turn the air conditioner on and off from the power mains switch.
Use the ON/OFF operation button.
•
Do not stick anything into the air outlet of the outdoor unit. This is
dangerous because the fan is rotating at high speed.
•
Do not let children play with the air conditioner.
•
Do not cool the room too much if babies or invalids are present.

The return air in the room is drawn into this section and passes through
air filters which remove dust and foreign particles.
Conditioned air is returned to the room through the air outlet (ceiling
and wall-mounted type) or four air outlets (Recessed type).
The direction of airflow can be adjusted as desired using the remote
control unit.
Remote control unit
Refrigerant tubes
The wireless remote control unit controls power ON/OFF, operation
mode selection, temperature, fan speed, timer setting, and air sweeping.
The indoor and outdoor units are connected by copper tubes through
which refrigerant gas flows.

ADDRESS switch
Change the address switch to prevent mixing of signals from remote control
units when two Sanyo air conditioners are installed next to each other.
Normally, the remote control address switch is set to A. For the second
indoor unit, both addresses of the remote control unit and the indoor unit
must be changed. The second remote control unit address must be changed
to B by breaking off the tab ”A“. And the second indoor unit address must
be changed from 1 to 2 by switching the slide switch in the indoor unit. For
more information, please contact the dealer where you made the purchase.
Normally, the tabs on the remote control unit should not be bent.
•
SENSOR button When you press this button (use a small-tipped object such as a ballpoint
pen), the mark will appear at the display. And the room temperature is
detected by the sensor which is built into the indoor unit and the air
conditioner is controlled accordingly.
NOTE If the remote control is located near a heat source, such as a space heater or
in direct sunlight, press the SENSOR button to switch to the sensor on the
indoor unit.
NOTE The remote control unit sends the temperature signal to the air conditioner regularly at five minute intervals.
If the signal from the remote control unit stops for more than ten minutes due to the loss of the remote
control unit or other trouble, the air conditioner will switch to the temperature sensor which is built into
the indoor unit and control the room temperature. In these cases, the temperature around the remote
control unit may differ from the temperature detected at the air conditioner’s position.

Care and Cleaning
1. For safety, be sure to turn the air conditioner off and also to
disconnect the power before cleaning.
2. Do not pour water or spray detergent on the indoor unit to clean it.
This will damage the internal components and may cause an
electric shock or fire.
Air Intake and outlet side
(Indoor Unit)
Clean the air intake and outlet side of the indoor unit with a vacuum cleaner
brush, or wipe them with a clean soft cloth.
If these parts are stained, use a clean cloth moistened with a mild liquid
detergent. When cleaning the air outlet side, be careful not to force the
vanes out of place.
CAUTION
1. Never use solvents or harsh chemicals when cleaning the indoor
unit. Do not wipe plastic parts using very hot water.
2. Some metal edges and the fins are sharp and may cause injury if
handled improperly; be especially careful when you clean these
parts.
3. The internal coil and other components of the outdoor unit must
be cleaned every year. Consult your dealer or service center.
Air filter
The air filter collects dust and other particles from the air and should be
cleaned about once every six months (Recessed type) or two weeks
(ceiling-mounted type and wall-mounted type). If the filter gets blocked, the
efficiency of the air conditioner drops greatly.
The frequency with which the filter should be cleaned depends on the
environment in which the unit is used.
NOTE
How to remove the filter
Recessed type:
1. Remove the bolt screw on each side out of the latch using a
screwdriver. (After cleaning, be sure to reattach the two bolt screws.)
2. Press on the two latches of the air intake grille with your thumbs in the
direction of the arrow to open the grille.
3. Open the air intake grille downward.
CAUTION
When cleaning the air filter, never remove the safety string. If it is
necessary to remove it for servicing and maintenance inside, be sure
to reinstall the safety string securely (hook on the grille side) after the
work.
4. Remove the air filter attached to the air intake grille.

Tips for Energy Saving
•
Do not
Block the air intake and outlet of the unit. If either is obstructed, the
unit will not work well, and may be damaged.
•
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.
•
Do
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.

NOTE
If the power supply for this unit is temporarily interrupted the unit will
