NOTE
Tips for saving energy
Be careful not to cool (heat) the room too much.
Keeping the temperature setting at a moderate
level helps save energy.
Recommended temperature setting
For cooling: 26˚C – 28˚C
For heating:20˚C – 24˚C
Cover windows with a blind or a curtain.
Blocking sunlight and air from outdoors
increases the cooling (heating) effect.
Clogged air filters cause inefficient
operation and waste energy. Clean them
once in about every two weeks.
Please note
The air conditioner always consumes 15 – 35 watts of
electricity even while it is not operating.
If you are not going to use the air conditioner for a long
period, for example in spring or autumn, turn the breaker OFF.
Use the air conditioner in the following conditions.
