1. AUTO OPERATION MODE

The Auto operation will be activated immediately once the Auto OFF/ON button is pressed. This operation can be used to
operate air conditioner with limited function if remote control is misplaced or malfunction.

2. TEST RUN OPERATION (FOR PUMP DOWN/SERVICING PURPOSE)

The Test Run operation will be activated if the Auto OFF/ON button is pressed continuously for more than 5 seconds. A “beep”
sound will occur at the fifth seconds, in order to identify the starting of Test Run operation (Forced cooling operation). Within 5
minutes after Forced cooling operation start, the Auto OFF/ON button is pressed for more than 5 seconds. A 2 “beep” sounds
will occur at the fifth seconds, in order to identify the starting of Forced heating operation.

The Auto OFF/ON button may be used together with remote control to set / change the advance setting of air conditioner
operation.

3. REMOTE CONTROL NUMBER SWITCH MODE

The Remote Control Number Switch Mode will be activated if the Auto OFF/ON button is pressed continuously for more than
11 seconds (3 “beep” sounds will occur at 11th seconds to identify the Remote Control Number Switch Mode is in standby
condition) and press any button at remote control to transmit and store the desired transmission code to the EEPROM.

For transmission code selection explanation, please refer to “Select Remote Control Transmission Code”.

4. REMOTE CONTROL RECEIVING SOUND OFF/ON MODE

The Remote Control Receiving Sound OFF/ON Mode will be activated if the Auto OFF/ON button is pressed continuously for
more than 16 seconds (4 “beep” sounds will occur at 16th seconds to identify the Remote Control Receiving Sound Off/On

• There are 4 types of remote control transmission code could be selected and stored in EEPROM of indoor unit. The indoor unit

will only operate when received signal with same transmission code from remote control. This could prevent signal interference
when there are 2 or more indoor units installed nearby together.

• To change remote control transmission code, short or open jumpers at the remote control printed circuit board.

In order to diagnose malfunctions, make sure that there are no
electrical problems before inspecting the refrigeration cycle.
Such problems include insufficient insulation, problem with the
power source, malfunction of a compressor and a fan.
The normal outlet air temperature and pressure of the
refrigeration cycle depends on various conditions, the standard
values for them are shown in the table on the right.
