TROUBLE SHOOTING
Normal Operation
Air conditioner has been restarted, but does not
operate for 3 minutes.
A sound like water flowing can be heard.
It seems that fog is coming out from the air
conditioner.
The room has a peculiar odour.
During Automatic Fan speed, indoor fan stops
occasionally.
The outdoor unit emits water or steam.
Operation stops for about 12 minutes during
heating operation (The power indicator blinks).
During heating operation, indoor fan may run at on
and off conditions.
Is it okay?
This is the answer
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.
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 smell 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 will 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.
Is it okay?
