Possible Causes
The unit has a 3-minute protection feature that prevents the unit from overloading.
The unit cannot be restarted within three minutes of being turned o .
The unit changes its setting to prevent frost from forming on the unit. Once the
temperature increases, the unit will start operating again.
The set temperature has been reached, at which point the unit turns o the compressor.
The unit will resume operating when the temperature fluctuates again.
In humid regions, a large temperature di erence between the room's air and the
conditioned air can cause white mist.
When the unit restarts in HEAT mode after defrosting, white mist may be emitted due
to moisture generated from the defrosting process.
A squeaking sound is heard when the system is OFF or in COOL mode. The noise is also
heard when the drain pump (optional) is in operation.
A squeaking sound may occur after running the unit in HEAT mode due to expansion
and contraction of the unit's plastic parts.
A low hissing sound may occur during operation. This is normal and is caused by
refrigerant gas flowing through both the indoor and outdoor units.
A low hissing sound may be heard when the system starts, has just stopped running or
is defrosting. This noise is normal and is caused by the refrigerant
gas stopping or changing direction.
