Cassette Fault Codes

Unpleasant smells can accumulate on the air filters and then be dispersed into the room during air conditioner operation. Switch the unit OFF and contact an authorised service centre to have the filters cleaned. Restart unit in the ventilation (fan only) mode and open windows to change room air.

The unit makes strange noises:

Occasionally the unit makes strange noises at start-up, during operation or when it has stopped. These are generally due to the effect of temperature changes on the plastic parts.
