The sound increases when the compressor activates (3
minutes after turning on the unit or during Easy dehumidifier
and Automatic modes).
¡
The volume of the sound differs depending on the angle of the louvre.
¡
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 compressor.
In modes that monitor the humidity level, 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.)
¡
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 filter dissolving in the
water. This is not a malfunction.
