is connected to your router via wifi.

CONNECTION METHODS AVAILABLE FOR SETUP

The air conditioner has two different setup modes, Quick Connection and AP (Access Point). The quick connection is a quick and simple way to set the unit up. The AP connection uses a direct local wifi connection between your phone and the air conditioner to upload the network details.

Please ensure your device is in the correct wifi connection mode for the connection type you are attempting, the flashing of the wifi light on your air conditioner will indicate this.

CONNECTION TROUBLESHOOTING
1. Check whether the device is powered on and is in the correct wifi connection mode, if not please refer to the CHANGING BETWEEN CONNECTION MODES section on page 12.
2. Ensure the wifi password has been entered into the app correctly (Case sensitive) 3. Check that the phone is connected to the wifi you are connecting the device to. 4. Ensure the network you are connecting it to is 2.4Ghz (5Ghz wifi networks are not supported),
and that there is a strong wifi signal to the item. 5. If your router is dual band, ensure that the 2.4ghz network has a different network name (SSID).
Further advice on changing router settings will be available from your Internet service provider / Router manufacturer. 6. Check the settings on the router. Encryption should be WPA2-PSK and authorisation type should be set to AES 7. Try using the alternative connection method. i.e. If connection is failing when attempting to connect through CF mode, try AP mode.
