CAUTION In quiet operation or stopping the running, slight flowing noise of refrigerant in the refrigerating cycle is heard occasionally, but this noise is not abnormal for the operation. When it thunders near by, it is recommend to stop the operation and to disconnect the power cord plug from the power outlet for safety.

Notes: (1) If the room temperature is (cooling preset temperature) - (1.33°C) or less after 30 seconds from starting the operation, the operation is done assuming as the preset temperature = (room temperature at the time) - (2°C). (2) The indoor fan is operated in the “Lo” mode. During thermo OFF indoor fan will be OFF for 5 minutes and ON for 1 minute. (3) When the operation is started by the themostat turning ON, the start of the indoor fan is delayed 32 seconds after the start of compressor operation.

• When the buzzer sounds, an approx. 3.9kHz square signal is output from buzzer output pin 83 of the micro computer. After the amplitude of this signal has been set to 12Vp-p by a transistor, it is applied to the buzzer. The piezoelectric element in the buzzer oscillates to generate the buzzer's sound.

6. Initial Setting Circuit (IC401) When power is supplied, the microcomputer reads the data in IC401 (E PROM) and sets the preheating activation value and the rating and maximum speed of the compressor, etc. to their initial values. Data of self-diagnosis mode is stored in IC401; data will not be erased even when power is turned off. Microcomputer C401 External ROM...

C032 R008 – Fig. 7-4 Power module circuit (U is OFF, V is ON) Since current flows at point B only when U transistor and V – transistor are ON, the current waveform at point B becomes intermittent waveform as shown in Fig. 3. Since current at point B is approximately proportional to the input current of the air conditioner, input current is controlled by using DC current (Id) detection resistor.
