Troubleshooting
The operating
sound is loud
Since the unit uses two fans and two motors in addition to the cool air function, the
operating sound becomes loud compared to models without a cool air function. This is
not a malfunction. If the operating sound bothers you, use the unit set to DEHUMIDIFYING LOW.
Check to see if the unit is on a slope or uneven surface.
Move to a sturdy even surface.
→
P6
Check to see if the silver ion fi lter is clogged.
Clean according to the maintenance procedures.
→
P22~23
Operating the unit in small rooms or in tight spaces sometimes causes
the sound to reverberate.
Place a mat underneath the unit.
→
P7
The sound increases when the compressor activates (approximately 3 minutes
after turning on the unit or during automatic operation ( DEHUMIDIFYING AUTO)).
Is operation being performed with the unit set to DEHUMIDIFYING LOW?
When the room temperature becomes 35°C or more, operation is performed
with the same amount of wind as HIGH in order to protect the compressor.
→
The volume of the sound differs depending on the angle of the louvre.
P16
This is the sound of the refrigerant. The sound can be heard while the refrigerant
stabilizes after the unit turns on, changes modes, or stops.
This is the sound of the air fl ow route changing. The unit sometimes makes
sounds when the operating mode changes or the air fl ow route changes during
operation.
This is the sound of the compressor. In modes that monitor the humidity
level or during drying inside, the compressor operates intermittently
causing the sound to be heard occasionally. The compressor does not
activate after turning the unit off, or for 3 minutes after plugging the unit
into a power socket. (This is to protect the compressor from damage.)

When fi rst used
The heat converter heats rapidly causing an odour. This is not a malfunction.
The moisture expelled from inside the unit may smell due to odorants that
were not caught by the silver ion fi lter dissolving in the water. This is not a
malfunction.
