12.1.5 Automatic
Operation
This mode can be set using remote control and the operation is decided by remote control setting temperature,
remote control operation mode, indoor intake air temperature and outdoor air temperature.
During operation mode judgment, indoor fan motor (with speed of Lo-) and outdoor fan motor are running for
30 seconds to detect the indoor intake and outdoor air temperature. The operation mode is decided based on
below chart.
below chart.
Every 30 minutes, the indoor and outdoor temperature is judged. Based on remote control setting temperature, the
value of T1 will increase up to 10°C, T2 will decrease by 3°C and T3 will decrease up to 8°C.
The Auto Operation Mode shifting will take place whenever operation mode changed from Cooling/Soft Dry to
Heating or vice versa.

[Heating]
According to indoor pipe temperature, automatic heating fan speed is determined as follows.
B. Feedback control
Immediately after the fan motor started, feedback control is performed once every second.
During fan motor on, if fan motor feedback ≥ 2550 rpm or < 50 rpm continue for 10 seconds, then fan motor error
counter increase, fan motor is then stop and restart. If the fan motor counter becomes 7 times, then H19 - fan
motor error is detected. Operation stops and cannot on back.

12.1.7 Outdoor Fan Motor Operation
Outdoor fan motor is operated with one fan speed only. It starts when compressor starts operation and it stops 30
seconds after compressor stops operation.
seconds after compressor stops operation.
12.2 Airflow Direction
1 There are two types of airflow, vertical airflow (directed by horizontal vane) and horizontal airflow (directed by
vertical vanes).
2 Control of airflow direction can be automatic (angles of direction is determined by operation mode, heat
exchanger temperature and intake air temperature) and manual (angles of direction can be adjusted using
remote control).

1 Automatic vertical airflow direction can be set using remote control; the vane swings up and down within the
angles as stated above. For heating mode operation, the angle of the vane depends on the indoor heat
exchanger temperature as Figure 1 below. It does not swing during fan motor stop. When the air conditioner
is stopped using remote control, the vane will shift to close position.

12.3 Quiet Operation (Cooling Mode/Cooling Area of Soft Dry Mode)
A. Purpose
To provide quiet cooling operation compare to normal operation.
B. Control condition
a. Quiet operation start condition
o When “POWERFUL/QUIET” button at remote control is pressed twice.
POWERFUL/QUIET LED illuminates (low intensity).
b. Quiet operation stop condition
1 When one of the following conditions is satisfied, quiet operation stops:
a. POWERFUL/QUIET button is pressed again.
b. Stop by OFF/ON switch.
c. Timer “off” activates.
d. AUTO COMFORT button is pressed.
e. ECONAVI button is pressed.
f. Mild Dry Cooling button is pressed.
b. Stop by OFF/ON switch.
c. Timer “off” activates.
d. AUTO COMFORT button is pressed.
e. ECONAVI button is pressed.
f. Mild Dry Cooling button is pressed.
2 When quiet operation is stopped, operation is shifted to normal operation with previous setting.
3 When fan speed is changed, quiet operation is shifted to quiet operation of the new fan speed.
4 When operation mode is changed, quiet operation is shifted to quiet operation of the new mode.
5 During quiet operation, if timer “on” activates, quiet operation maintains.
6 After off, when on back, quiet operation is not memorised.
3 When fan speed is changed, quiet operation is shifted to quiet operation of the new fan speed.
4 When operation mode is changed, quiet operation is shifted to quiet operation of the new mode.
5 During quiet operation, if timer “on” activates, quiet operation maintains.
6 After off, when on back, quiet operation is not memorised.
C. Control contents
