• Once the mode is fixed, the mode does not change by room temperature afterwards. • Under the ON-TIMER ( ) operation, mode is determined according to the room temperature at the set time the operation starts. • When the system is stopped on the remote controller, and restarted within 2 hours in “I FEEL CONTROL” ( ) mode, the system operates in previous mode automatically regardless of the room temperature.

The indoor fan operates at the set speed and the compressor stops for 5 minutes. After that, if RT12 still reads below 0°C(MS-A18WV)/ 3°C(MS-A24WV)/ RT12 or RT13 still reads below-1°C (MS- A30WV) this mode prolonged until the RT12 reads over 0°C(MS-A18WV)/ 3°C(MS-A24WV) / RT12 or RT13 still reads- over-1°C(MS-A30WV).

8-5. INDOOR FAN MOTOR CONTROL (1) Rotational frequency feedback control The indoor fan motor is equipped with a rotational frequency sensor, and outputs signal to the microprocessor to feedback the rotational frequency. Comparing the current rotational frequency with the target rotational frequency (High, Med., Low), the microprocessor controls SR141 and adjusts fan motor electric current to make the current rota- tional frequency close to the target rotational frequency.

(8) ECONO COOL ( ) operation (ECONOmical operation) When the ECONO COOL button is pressed in COOL mode, set temperature is automatically set 2°C higher than that in COOL mode. Also the horizontal vane swings in various cycle according to the temperature of indoor heat exchanger(Tp (w 1) SWING operation makes you feel cooler than set temperature.

2. Vertical vane (1) Vane motor drive These models are equipped with a stepping motor for the vertical vane. The rotating direction, speed, and angle of the motor are controlled by pulse signals (approx. 12V) transmitted from microprocessor. (2) The vertical vane angle and mode change as follows by pressing the WIDE VANE button. SWING (3) Positioning The vane is once pressed to the vane stopper to confirm the standard position and then set to the desired angle.

TROUBLESHOOTING MS-A18WV - MS-A24WV - MS-A30WV - 10-1. Cautions on troubleshooting 1. Before troubleshooting, check the following: (1) Check the power supply voltage. (2) Check the indoor/outdoor connecting wire for mis-wiring. 2. Take care the following during servicing. (1) Before servicing the air conditioner, be sure to first turn off the remote controller to stop the main unit, and then after confirming the horizontal vane is closed, turn off the breaker and / or disconnect the power plug.
