UNIT DOES NOT SEND OUT WARM AIR
The unit is preheating or de-icing.
ODORS
Carpet and furniture odors that entered into the unit
may be sent out from the unit.
CRACKING NOISE
The unit may produce a cracking noise. This sound
is generated by the friction of the front panel and
other components expanding or connecting due to a
temperature change.
A LOW BUZZING NOISE EMITTED
This is a sound emitted when the unit is generating
Plasmacluster ions.
SWISHING NOISE
The soft, swishing noise is the sound of the refrigerant
owing inside the unit.
WATER VAPOUR
• In the COOL and DRY operation, water vapour
can sometimes be seen at the air outlet due to the
difference between the room air temperature and
the air discharged by the unit.
• In the HEAT operation, water vapour may ow out
of the outdoor unit during de-icing.
THE OUTDOOR UNIT DOES NOT STOP
After stopping the operation, the outdoor unit will rotate
its' fan for about a minute to cool down the unit.
ODOR EMITTED FROM THE PLASMACLUSTER
AIR OUTLET
This is the smell of ozone generated from the
Plasmacluster Ion generator. The ozone concentration
is very small, posing no adverse effect on your health.
The ozone discharged into the air rapidly decomposes,
and its density in the room will not increase.
When using your air conditioner with multi-
