4.3. Refrigerant Line and Electrical Connections

The 15-foot refrigerant line set and interconnecting electrical cables are provided. It is crucial that a certified HVAC technician performs the following steps:

• Connecting the refrigerant lines between the indoor and outdoor units.
• Evacuating the line set using a vacuum pump to remove air and moisture.
• Checking for leaks in the refrigerant system.
• Making all necessary electrical connections, including the disconnect box and electric whip, to the 230V power supply.

Failure to properly evacuate the lines or make secure connections can lead to system malfunction, reduced efficiency, and voiding of the warranty.

5. Instruccions de funcionament

The Klimaire KSIE Series mini-split system is controlled via the included wireless remote control. All operational features can be accessed and adjusted from this remote.

5.1. Modes de funcionament bàsics

• Mode de refrigeració: For air conditioning. Set desired temperature and fan speed.
• Mode de calefacció: For heat pump operation. Effective even in low ambient temperatures down to 5°F.
• Mode sec (deshumidificació): Redueix la humitat de l'aire sense refredar-lo significativament.
• Mode de ventilador: Circulates air without heating or cooling. Choose from four fan speeds.
• Mode automàtic: The system automatically selects the appropriate mode (heating, cooling, or fan) based on the room temperature and your set point.

5.2. Funcions avançades

• Mode turbo: Provides rapid cooling or heating to quickly reach the desired temperature.
• Mode de repòs: Adjusts temperature and fan speed for comfortable sleep, often increasing temperature slightly during cooling or decreasing during heating over time.
• Funció Seguiu-me: The remote control acts as a thermostat, sensing the temperature at its location and adjusting the unit's operation to maintain comfort around the remote.
• Flux d'aire 3D: Adjustable louvers allow for multi-directional air distribution.
• Anti-Cold Air: Evita corrents d'aire freds durant l'arrencada de la calefacció.
• Auto Restart Function: En cas d'una potènciatage, la unitat es reiniciarà automàticament amb la configuració anterior un cop es restabli l'alimentació.
