Preparation Before Operation

CAUTION
Incorrect handling of batteries can result in injury from battery leakage, rupturing or heating, or lead to equipment failure.
Please observe the following precautions and use safely.
• If the alkaline solution from the batteries should get in the eyes, do not rub the eyes. Instead, immediately flush the eyes with tap water and
seek the attention of a medical professional.
• Keep batteries out of reach of children. In the event that batteries are swallowed, seek the immediate attention of a medical professional.
• Do not expose batteries to heat or fire. Do not disassemble or modify batteries. The insulation or gas release vent inside the battery may be
damaged, resulting in battery leakage, rupturing, or heating.
• Do not damage or peel off labels on the batteries.

• The switch operation is only possible when the temperature is being displayed.
NOTE
Notes on batteries
• To avoid possible injury or damage from battery leakage or rupturing, remove the batteries when not using the product for long periods of time.
• The standard replacement time is about 1 year. Both batteries should be replaced at the same time. Be sure to replace them with new dry
batteries AAA.LR03 (alkaline).
• If the remote controller display begins to fade and signal reception begins to decline, replace the batteries with new batteries. Owing to usage
conditions, battery consumption may be accelerated.
• The batteries supplied with the remote controller are for initial operation. The batteries may run out in less than 1 year.

Note on remote controller

• Do not drop the remote controller. Do not get it wet.

Fahrenheit/Celsius display change function of remote controller
• The set temperature may increase when the display is changed to Celsius from Fahrenheit, because a fraction of 0.5°C is rounded up.
• Example: A set temperature of 65°F (equivalent to 18.5°C) will be converted into 19°C.
When the display is changed to Fahrenheit again, the set temperature will be converted into 66°F (equivalent to 19°C) instead of the
original set temperature (65°F) but a set temperature of 66°F (equivalent to 19°C) will be converted into 19°C with no temperature
change.

− For heating: 68-75°F (20-24°C)

Cover windows with a blind or a curtain.

• Blocking sunlight and air from outdoors increases the cooling (heating) effect.

Keep the air filters clean.

• Clogged air filters cause inefficient operation and waste energy. Clean them once in about every 2 weeks.  Page 29

If you are not going to use the air conditioner for a long period, for example in spring or autumn, turn off the circuit
breaker.

movement. If no one is in the room for more than 20 minutes, the operation auto-
matically changes to energy saving operation.

CAUTION
• Do not place large objects near the INTELLIGENT EYE sensor. Also keep heating units and humidifiers
outside the sensor’s detection area. This sensor can detect undesirable objects.
• Do not hit or violently push the INTELLIGENT EYE sensor. This can lead to damage and malfunction.
