How to use your Dimplex Air Conditioner

Working mechanism and special functions for cooling mode

Principle:

Anti-freezing function:

Working mechanism and special functions for heating mode

Principle:

Defrosting:

Air conditioners absorb the heat in a room, then transmit that heat outdoors, where it is then

discharged. This decreases the ambient indoor temperature. The cooling capacity of the air

conditioner may increase or decrease depending on the outdoor ambient temperature.

If the unit is running in COOL mode and the outdoor ambient temperature is low, frost may

form on the heat exchanger. If the indoor heat exchanger temperature drops below 0 degrees

Celsius, the unit's indoor microcomputer will stop the compressor in order to protect the unit.

This unit also functions as a heater. It absorbs heat from outdoors and transmits it indoors,

thereby raising the indoor ambient temperature. The eectiveness of this function may

decrease if the outdoor ambient temperature decreases.

If the ambient outdoor temperature becomes too cold, please use other heating methods.

The unit will continue to function down to -10 C, however defrost settings will activate it self

more often during these lower temeratures.

If the ambient temperature outside is low but the humidity is high, frost may form on the

outdoor unit and aect the heating capabilities. If this occurs, the auto-defrost function will

activate and the fan motors on both the indoor and outdoor units will halt, disrupting the

heat output for 8-10 minutes.

During the auto-defrost sequence, vapour may be emitted from the outdoor unit. This is

normal and not a malfunction.

When the auto-defrost sequence is complete, heating will resume automatically.

The climate type of this unit is according to the nameplate.

The external static pressures at which the appliance was tested should be zero Pa.

How to use your Dimplex Air Conditioner

Anti-cool air function:

The unit is designed not to blow cold air on HEAT mode when the indoor heat exchanger

is in one of the following three situations:

1. When heating mode begins

2. After the auto-defrost function has just finiished.

3. Heating in very low temperatures.

Gentle Breeze

The unit may automatically rotate to a certain position and blow a gentle

breeze in the following situations:

1. When the unit is turned on, in HEAT mode, and the compressor hasn't reached the

starting position.

2. When the unit is in HEAT mode, the temperature has arrived at the prescribed value,

and the compressor has stopped running for approximately 1 minute.

The operating temperature range (outdoor temperature) for cooling only models: 21 ~ 43 C

for cooling and heating units: -10 ~ .
