- Cooling Operation: Outdoor fan speed is adjusted according to outdoor ambient temperature, with controls for RPM free, RPM controlled, and stopped states based on temperature thresholds. Annual Cooling control enables operation when outdoor ambient temperature is low, adjusting fan motor speed based on outdoor pipe temperature. Cooling Powerful Operation 1 concentrates outdoor unit capability for a targeted indoor unit by temporarily stopping capability to other indoor units.
- Heating Operation: Outdoor fan speed is adjusted based on outdoor ambient temperature for heating overload control. Heating Room Temp Sampling Control allows indoor room temperature sampling to improve judgment accuracy. Powerful Operation 2 provides faster cooling/heating operation compared to normal operation. Outdoor Quiet Cooling Operation Control provides quiet cooling when only 1 indoor unit is in operation.
