6.2 MANUAL OPERATION

Manual operation can be accessed by pressing manual button
Press the manual button repeatedly to change modes as follows:
Once = AUTO mode [heat, cool or fan, 24°C and auto fan speed.
Twice = COOLING mode [switch to AUTO mode after 30 minutes (mainly used for trial operation)]
Manual Button
Three times = OFF

6.3 TRAIL OPERATION

Set the air conditioning under the COOLING mode with the remote controller (or manual button) and check the running status of both
indoor unit and outdoor unit. In case of any malfunction, resolve it according to chapter “Trouble shooting” in the “Service Manual”.

Indoor unit
Whether the buttons (such as ON/OFF, MODE, TEMPERATURE, FAN SPEED etc.) on the remote controller work well.
Whether the louver moves normally.
Whether the room temperature is adjusted well.
Whether the indicator lights on the display panel are normal.
Whether the “manual” button works well.
Whether the drainage is normal.
Whether there is a vibration or abnormal noise during the operation.
Whether the indoor unit works well in COOLING or HEATING mode.

Outdoor unit
Whether there is a vibration or abnormal noise during the operation.
Whether the air flow, noise or condensate water generated by the air conditioner have disturb your neighborhood.
Whether there is any refrigerant leakage.

CAUTION
When restart the unit, there will be approximately 3 minutes delay for the compressor to run for protection.
