AIR CONDITIONER OPERATING MODES AND FUNCTIONS

Cooling Mode (COOL)

The cooling function allows the air conditioner to lower the room temperature and at the same time reduce the humidity level.

To activate the cooling function (COOL), press the MODE button until the corresponding icon appears on the remote control display.

Activate the cooling cycle using the TEMP▲ “Up” or TEMP▼ “Down” button, setting the temperature lower than the current room temperature.

Heating Mode (HEAT)

The heating function allows the air conditioner to produce warm air.

To activate the heating function (HEAT), press the MODE button until the corresponding icon appears on the remote control display.

Use the TEMP▲ “Up” or TEMP▼ “Down” button to set the temperature higher than the current room temperature.

Ventilation Mode (FAN)

With this function, the air conditioner operates only in ventilation mode without cooling the air.

To set the FAN mode, press the MODE button until the corresponding icon appears on the remote control display. Pressing the “FAN” button allows you to change the fan speed.

Dehumidification Mode (DRY)

This function reduces air humidity to make the room more comfortable.

To set the DRY mode, press the MODE button until the corresponding icon appears on the remote control display.

In dehumidification mode, depending on the difference between the room temperature and the set temperature, the air conditioner will start or stop cooling, and the fan speed will automatically decrease to reduce the humidity level in the room.

Intensive Mode (SUPER)

In this mode, the air conditioner cools the air more intensively than in normal mode. This allows you to quickly create comfortable conditions indoors during the hot season. In this mode, the air conditioner sets the cooling temperature to +16°C as the target value.

To enable Intensive Mode, press the SUPER button on the remote control. To cancel Intensive Mode, press the SUPER button again.

(!) NOTE
• At low outdoor temperatures, frost may form on the heat exchanger of the outdoor unit, in which case the defrost mode is activated. The indoor unit fan is switched off (in some models it operates at low speed). After several minutes, the air conditioner resumes heating mode (this interval may vary slightly depending on the outdoor temperature).
• When entering heating mode, the indoor unit fan turns on after a short delay, once the indoor heat exchanger is sufficiently warm, to prevent cold air from being supplied into the room.
• When the power supply is interrupted, the air conditioner switches off. When the power is restored, it automatically switches on after three minutes.
• In cooling or heating mode, the plastic parts of the air conditioner may expand and contract due to sudden temperature changes, which may produce clicking sounds. This is a normal phenomenon.
• The remote control regularly transmits the temperature value to the indoor unit at 3-minute intervals. If the signal is not transmitted for more than 10 minutes (for example, if the remote control is lost), the air conditioner switches to operation using the built-in sensor of the indoor unit and maintains the room temperature. In such cases, the temperature around the remote control may differ from the temperature around the indoor unit.

Sleep Mode (SLEEP)

Night-time operating mode. The sleep mode is used to maintain comfortable conditions and save energy during the night.

To select sleep mode, press the SLEEP button on the remote control. The icon will appear, indicating that the air conditioner is operating in sleep mode.

Each press of the SLEEP button changes the sleep mode in the following sequence:

Automatic Operation Mode (SMART Mode)

When the SMART button is pressed, the air conditioner will switch to automatic mode regardless of whether it is on or off. In this mode, the temperature and fan speed are set automatically based on the current room temperature. The device automatically adjusts the air flow direction when operating in SMART mode.

1. Manual device control

a. If the temperature is above 26°C, the device will operate in cooling mode until the temperature drops to 26°C.
b. If the temperature is above 23°C but below 26°C, the device will operate in dehumidification mode (the air conditioner switches to automatic mode after 3 minutes of operation at low fan speed).
c. If the temperature in the room is above 21°C but below 23°C, the device will operate only in ventilation mode at low airflow, with adjustable fan speed.
d. If the room temperature does not exceed 21°C, the device will operate in heating mode with a target temperature of 22°C.

2. Cooling-only device (heating function absent)

a. If the room temperature exceeds 26°C, the device will operate in cooling mode with a target temperature of 26°C.
b. If the room temperature exceeds 23°C but remains below 26°C, the device will operate in dehumidification mode.
c. If the room temperature does not exceed 23°C, the device will operate only in ventilation mode at low airflow, with adjustable fan speed.

Once the device enters SMART mode, the set temperature can be adjusted from 2°C to 7°C (depending on the remote control mode, with a minimum adjustment step of 1°C) either lower or higher, according to the automatic mode temperature settings or the control unit’s preset temperature.
