At the beginning of the defrost cycle, both the outdoor
condenser fan and compressor will turn off. After
approximately 30 seconds, the compressor will turn on
and begin to heat the outdoor coil causing the ice and
snow to melt.
NOTE: While the ice and snow is melting, some steam
may rise from the outdoor unit as the warm coil causes the
melting frost to evaporate. When defrost is completed, the
outdoor fan motor will start, and the compressor will turn
off again. In approximately 30 seconds the compressor
will start up again and continue normal operation.
HEAT PUMP MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
Shut off all electrical power to the unit before
performing any maintenance or service on the
system. Failure to comply may result in personal
injury or death.
Proper maintenance is most important to achieve the best
performance from the appliance and should be performed
by a qualifi ed service technician at least once a year.
Follow the maintenance schedule and the instructions
below for years of safe, trouble free operation.
Regular Cleaning
• Clean or replace the indoor air fi lter at the start of each
heating and cooling season, and when an accumulation
of dust and dirt is visible on the air fi lter.
• Remove any leaves and grass clippings from the coil
in the outdoor unit, being careful not to damage the
aluminum fi ns.
• Check for obstructions, such as twigs, sticks, etc.
TROUBLESHOOTING
If the unit fails to operate, check the following:
• The thermostat is properly set. See Cooling Operation
for air conditioning or Heating Operation for furnace or
air handler.
• The unit disconnect fuses are in good condition and
the electrical power to the unit is turned on.
WARRANTY INFORMATION
A warranty certifi cate with full details is included with the
heat pump. Carefully review these responsibilities with

Operating the Heat Pump for Automatic Cooling
and Heating
1. Set the thermostat system mode to AUTO and the
thermostat fan mode to AUTO. See Figure 1.
NOTE: Thermostat styles vary. Some models will
not include the AUTO mode and others will have the
AUTO in place of the HEAT and COOL. Others may
include all three. Refer to the instructions supplied
with your thermostat for specifi c instructions.
2. Set the thermostat's temperature selector to the
desired heating and cooling temperature level(s).
The outdoor unit and the indoor blower will then cycle
on and off in either the heating or cooling mode of
operation as required to automatically maintain the
indoor temperature within the desired limits.
Operating the Indoor Blower Continuously
The continuous indoor blower operation is typically used to
circulate the indoor air to equalize a temperature unbalance
due to a sun load, cooking, or fi replace operation.
Set the thermostat fan mode to ON (Figure 1). The indoor
blower starts immediately, and will run continually until
the fan mode is reset to AUTO.
The continuous indoor blower operation can be obtained
with the thermostat system mode set in any position,
including OFF.
Shutting the Heat Pump Off
Change the thermostat’s system mode to OFF and the fan
mode to AUTO. See Figure 1. NOTE: The system will not
operate, regardless of the temperature selector setting.
