1.1 Safety Cautions
Cautions and Be sure to read the following safety cautions before conducting repair work.
Warnings The caution items are classified into Warning and Caution. The Warning
items are especially important since they can lead to death or serious injury if they are not
followed closely. The Caution items can also lead to serious accidents under some
conditions if they are not followed. Therefore, be sure to observe all the safety caution items
described below.
About the pictograms
This symbol indicates the item for which caution must be exercised.
The pictogram shows the item to which attention must be paid.
This symbol indicates the prohibited action.
The prohibited item or action is shown in the illustration or near the symbol.
This symbol indicates the action that must be taken, or the instruction.
The instruction is shown in the illustration or near the symbol.
After the repair work is complete, be sure to conduct a test operation to ensure that the
equipment operates normally, and explain the cautions for operating the product to the
customer.
If the refrigerant gas leaks during the repair work, ventilate the area. The
refrigerant gas may generate toxic gases when it contacts flames.

SiBE041010 Introduction
Warning
Be sure to wear a safety helmet, gloves, and a safety belt when working at a
high place (more than 2 m). Insufficient safety measures may cause a fall
accident.
In case of R-410A refrigerant models, be sure to use pipes, flare nuts and tools
for the exclusive use of the R-410A refrigerant.
The use of materials for R-22 refrigerant models may cause a serious accident
such as a damage of refrigerant cycle as well as an equipment failure.
Caution
Do not repair the electrical components with wet hands.
Working on the equipment with wet hands may cause an electrical shock.
Be sure to turn off the power switch and unplug the power cable when cleaning
the equipment.
The internal fan rotates at a high speed, and cause injury.
Be sure to check that the refrigerating cycle section has cooled down enough
before conducting repair work.
Working on the unit when the refrigerating cycle section is hot may cause
burns.
vi
Introduction SiBE041010
If the power cable and lead wires have scratches or deteriorated, be sure to
replace them.
Damaged cable and wires may cause an electrical shock, excessive heat
generation or fire.
Do not use a joined power cable or extension cable, or share the same power
outlet with other electrical appliances, since it may cause an electrical shock,
excessive heat generation or fire.
Be sure to use an exclusive power circuit for the equipment, and follow the local
technical standards related to the electrical equipment, the internal wiring
regulations, and the instruction manual for installation when conducting
electrical work.
Insufficient power circuit capacity and improper electrical work may cause an
electrical shock or fire.
Be sure to use the specified cable for wiring between the indoor and outdoor
units. Make the connections securely and route the cable properly so that there
is no force pulling the cable at the connection terminals.
Improper connections may cause excessive heat generation or fire.
When wiring between the indoor and outdoor units, make sure that the terminal
cover does not lift off or dismount because of the cable.
If the cover is not mounted properly, the terminal connection section may cause
an electrical shock, excessive heat generation or fire.
Do not mix air or gas other than the specified refrigerant (R-410A / R-22) in the
refrigerant system.
If air enters the refrigerating system, an excessively high pressure results,
causing equipment damage and injury.
If the refrigerant gas leaks, be sure to locate the leaking point and repair it
before charging the refrigerant. After charging refrigerant, make sure that there
is no refrigerant leak.
If the leaking point cannot be located and the repair work must be stopped, be
sure to perform pump-down and close the service valve, to prevent the
refrigerant gas from leaking into the room. The refrigerant gas itself is
harmless, but it may generate toxic gases when it contacts flames, such as fan
and other heaters, stoves and ranges.
When relocating the equipment, make sure that the new installation site has
sufficient strength to withstand the weight of the equipment.
If the installation site does not have sufficient strength and if the installation
work is not conducted securely, the equipment may fall and cause injury.

1. Main Functions
1.1 Frequency Principle
Main Control The compressor is frequency-controlled during normal operation. The target frequency is set by
Parameters the following 2 parameters coming from the operating indoor unit:
The load condition of the operating indoor unit
The difference between the room temperature and the target temperature
Additional The target frequency is adapted by additional parameters in the following cases:
Control Frequency restrictions
Parameters Initial settings
Forced cooling operation
Inverter Principle To regulate the capacity, a frequency control is needed. The inverter makes it possible to vary
the rotation speed of the compressor. The following table explains the conversion principle:
Phase Description
1 The supplied AC power source is converted into the DC power source for the present.
2 The DC power source is reconverted into the three phase AC power source with variable
frequency.
When the frequency increases, the rotation speed of the compressor increases resulting
in an increased refrigerant circulation. This leads to a higher amount of the heat
exchange per unit.
When the frequency decreases, the rotation speed of the compressor decreases
resulting in a decreased refrigerant circulation. This leads to a lower amount of the heat
exchange per unit.

On heating mode, the fan speed is regulated according to the indoor heat exchanger
temperature and the difference between the room temperature and the target temperature.
Detail The microcomputer automatically sets the temperature and airflow rate. The difference between
the room temperature at start-up and the target temperature is divided into two zones. Then, the
unit operates in the dry mode with an appropriate capacity for each zone to maintain the
temperature and humidity at a comfortable level.

2. Function of Thermistor
A
B Compressor (R11582)
A Outdoor Heat 1. The outdoor heat exchanger thermistor is used for controlling target discharge pipe
Exchanger temperature. The system sets the target discharge pipe temperature according to the
Thermistor outdoor and indoor heat exchanger temperature, and controls the electronic expansion valve
opening so that the target discharge pipe temperature can be obtained.
2. In cooling operation, the outdoor heat exchanger thermistor is used for detecting
disconnection of the discharge pipe thermistor. When the discharge pipe temperature
becomes lower than the outdoor heat exchanger temperature, the discharge pipe thermistor
is judged as disconnected.
3. In cooling operation, the outdoor heat exchanger thermistor is used for high pressure
protection.
B Discharge 1. The discharge pipe thermistor is used for controlling discharge pipe temperature. If the
Pipe Thermistor discharge pipe temperature (used in place of the inner temperature of the compressor) rises
abnormally, the operating frequency becomes lower or the operation halts.
2. The discharge pipe thermistor is used for detecting disconnection of the discharge pipe
thermistor.
C Indoor Heat 1. The indoor heat exchanger thermistor is used for controlling target discharge pipe
Exchanger temperature. The system sets the target discharge pipe temperature according to the
Thermistor outdoor and indoor heat exchanger temperature, and controls the electronic expansion valve
opening so that the target discharge pipe temperature can be obtained.
2. In cooling operation, the indoor heat exchanger thermistor is used for freeze-up protection
control. If the indoor heat exchanger temperature drops abnormally, the operating frequency
becomes lower or the operation halts.
3. In heating operation, the indoor heat exchanger thermistor is used for detecting
disconnection of the discharge pipe thermistor. When the discharge pipe temperature
becomes lower than the indoor heat exchanger temperature, the discharge pipe thermistor
is judged as disconnected.

SiBE041010 System Configuration
1. System Configuration
After the installation and test operation of the room air conditioner have been completed, it
should be operated and handled as described below. Every user would like to know the correct
method of operation of the room air conditioner, to check if it is capable of cooling (or heating)
well, and to know a clever method of using it.
In order to meet this expectation of the users, giving sufficient explanations taking enough time
can be said to reduce about 80% of the requests for servicing. However good the installation
work is and however good the functions are, the customer may blame either the room air
conditioner or its installation work because of improper handling. The installation work and
handing over of the unit can only be considered to have been completed when its handling has
been explained to the user without using technical terms but giving full knowledge of the
equipment.

NOTE
Note on HEAT operation
Since this air conditioner heats the room by taking heat from outdoor air to indoors, the heating
capacity becomes smaller in lower outdoor temperatures. If the heating effect is insufficient, it is rec-
ommended to use another heating appliance in combination with the air conditioner.
The heat pump system heats the room by circulating hot air around all parts of the room. After the
start of heating operation, it takes some time before the room gets warmer.
In heating operation, frost may occur on the outdoor unit and lower the heating capacity. In that case,
the system switches into defrosting operation to take away the frost.
During defrosting operation, hot air does not flow out of indoor unit.
Note on COOL operation
This air conditioner cools the room by blowing the hot air in the room outside, so if the
outside temperature is high, the performance of the air conditioner drops.
Note on DRY operation
The computer chip works to rid the room of humidity while maintaining the temperature as
much as possible. It automatically controls temperature and airflow rate, so manual adjust-
ment of these functions is unavailable.
Note on AUTO operation
In AUTO operation, the system selects an appropriate operation mode (COOL or HEAT) based on
the room temperature at the start of the operation.
The system automatically reselects setting at a regular interval to bring the room temperature to user-
setting level.
If you do not like AUTO operation, manually change the set temperature.
Note on airflow rate setting
At smaller airflow rates, the cooling (heating) effect is also smaller.

1.1 Trial Operation
Outline 1. Measure the supply voltage and make sure that it falls in the specified range.
2. Trial operation should be carried out in either cooling or heating mode.
3. Carry out the trial operation in accordance with the operation manual to ensure that all
functions and parts, such as louver movement, are working properly.
The air conditioner requires a small amount of power in its standby mode. If the system is
not to be used for some time after installation, shut off the circuit breaker to eliminate
unnecessary power consumption.
If the circuit breaker trips to shut off the power to the air conditioner, the system backs up the
operation mode. The system then restarts operation with the previous mode when the circuit
breaker is restored.
In cooling mode, select the lowest programmable temperature; in heating mode, select the
highest programmable temperature.
Trial operation may be disabled in either mode depending on the room temperature.
After trial operation is complete, set the temperature to a normal level.
(26C to 28C in cooling mode, 20C to 24C in heating mode)
For protection, the system does not start for 3 minutes after it is turned off.
