<What the blinking mode icon means>
The mode icon will blink when other indoor units in the same refrigerant system (connected to the same outdoor unit) are
already operated in a different mode. In this case, the rest of the unit in the same group can only be operated in the same
mode.
<AUTO (dual set point) mode>
When the operation mode is set to the Auto (dual set point) mode, two preset temperatures (one each for cooling and
heating) can be set. Depending on the room temperature, indoor unit will automatically operate in either the Cool or
Heat mode and keep the room temperature within the preset range.

<Automatic operation>
• According to a set temperature, cooling operation starts if the room tempera-
ture is too hot and heating operation starts if the room temperature is too
cold.
• During automatic operation, if the room temperature changes and remains
2˚C or more above the set temperature for 15 minutes, the air conditioner
switches to cooling mode. In the same way, if the room temperature remains
2˚C or more below the set temperature for 15 minutes, the air conditioner
switches to heating mode.
