Common Issues

The following problems are not a malfunction and in most situations will not require repairs.

Issue Possible Causes

Unit does not turn on

when pressing ON/OFF

button

The Unit has a 3-minute protection feature that prevents the unit from overloading.

The unit cannot be restarted within three minutes of being turned off.

The unit changes from

COOL/HEAT mode to

FAN mode

The unit may change its setting to prevent frost from forming on the unit.

Once the temperature increases, the unit will start operating in the previously

selected mode again.

The set temperature has been reached, at which point the unit turns off the

compressor. The unit will continue operating when the temperature uctuates

again.

The indoor unit emits

white mist

In humid regions, a large temperature difference between the room’s air and the

conditioned air can cause white mist.

Both the indoor and

outdoor units emit white

mist

When the unit restarts in HEAT mode after defrosting, white mist may be emitted

due to moisture generated from the defrosting process.

The indoor unit makes

noises

A rushing air sound may occur when the louver resets its position.

A squeaking sound may occur after running the unit in HEAT mode due to

expansion and contraction of the unit’s plastic parts.

Both the indoor unit

and outdoor unit make

noises

Low hissing sound during operation: This is normal and is caused by refrigerant

gas owing through both indoor and outdoor units.

Low hissing sound when the system starts, has just stopped running, or is

defrosting: This noise is normal and is caused by the refrigerant gas stopping or

changing direction.

Squeaking sound: Normal expansion and contraction of plastic and metal parts

caused by temperature changes during operation can cause squeaking noises.

User manual/

Installation manual

Issue Possible Causes

The outdoor unit makes

noises

The unit will make different sounds based on its current operating mode.

Dust is emitted from

either the indoor or

outdoor unit

The unit may accumulate dust during extended periods of non-use, which will

be emitted when the unit is turned on. This can be mitigated by covering the unit

during long periods of inactivity.

The unit emits a bad

odor

The unit may absorb odors from the environment (such as furniture, cooking,

cigarettes, etc.) which will be emitted during operations.

The unit’s lters have become moldy and should be cleaned.

The fan of the outdoor unit

does not operate

During operation, the fan speed is controlled to optimize product operation.

Operation is erratic,

unpredictable, or unit is

unresponsive

Interference from cell phone towers and remote boosters may cause the unit to

malfunction.

In this case, try the following:

● Disconnect the power, then reconnect.

● Press ON/OFF button on remote control to restart operation.

NOTE:

If problem persists, contact a local dealer or your nearest customer service center. Provide

them with a detailed description of the unit malfunction as well as your model number.
