Hessaire Mini Split Remote Control Manual (2024)

FAQs

Why is my mini split not responding to the remote? ›

If the remote still doesn't respond after you've checked for obstructions and ensured you're within range, the next step is to inspect the batteries. Dead or weak batteries are one of the most common reasons for remote control failure.

The remote will show whether the unit is in Cool, Heat, Fan, or Dry/Dehumidify mode by displaying a symbol (icon) at the top of the remote display. Cool Mode: Snowflake symbol. Heat Mode: Sun symbol. Fan Mode: Fan symbol (circle with fan blades inside it) Dry/Dehumidification: Rain Drop symbol.

Mini split auto mode will allow your system to change fan speed based on the weather and your temperature setting. So, be sure to use auto mode, it's the best setting for mini split efficiency!

Replace the batteries according to the polarity markings on the battery compartment. The air conditioner may not respond to remote commands even if the batteries have been inserted correctly. This could be due to dirt or clogging that is preventing the remote from working properly.

Unlike traditional heating where you make adjustments when you leave the house or go to sleep, your mini-split is far better at using its AUTO fan setting to get better energy efficiency.

To unlock your AC remote control, you will need to locate the lock button on the remote and hold it down for a few seconds until the lock icon disappears. If you are still having trouble, refer to the user manual for your specific air conditioning unit or contact a professional for assistance.

The Raindrop: used for dry mode. This should be used when the conditions are humid, and temperatures are mild. The Arrows: usually means automatic mode. This is when your system automatically sets the temperature and speed of the fan.

The Energy Star program suggests that you set your ductless AC thermostat to 78 degrees during the summer months. That sounds hot, but these units are extremely efficient. This is enough to maintain a cool environment, all while keeping your energy bill as low as possible.

A mini split can be left running 24/7 because the systems are designed specifically for non-stop use. In fact, keeping your mini split system running actually makes it more energy efficient and increases its ability to regulate temperatures with its internal temperature settings.

Should I run my mini-split fan on auto? ›

Go on autopilot

When you select the auto setting, the system will automatically take measures to maintain the temperature you selected within one degree. In addition, the system will choose the most efficient fan speed for optimal comfort and energy savings based on the conditions of the space.

The sun symbol represents HEAT mode. This is the opposite of the cool mode and is used to heat the room, usually during the cooler winter months. A teardrop or water symbol is used to show the DRY mode. This mode is used to reduce the humidity in the room when the air is warm and very humid.

A new mini split not cooling can be resolved by restoring refrigerant levels. After all, as previously mentioned, low levels of refrigerant in your mini split can impede its effectiveness at cooling your house. Low refrigerant levels are possibly caused by leakage in the unit's lines or damage.

If your mini-split system keeps shutting off, a common cause is a faulty thermostat or a problem with the power supply. A blocked condensate line or an overloaded circuit could also be the culprit. Regular maintenance and professional inspections can help identify and resolve these issues promptly.

Check Your Batteries Are The Right Way Round

If it still doesn't work even after inserting the batteries the correct way, there could be dirt or a blockage between the batteries and the metal contacts.

If the batteries are inserted correctly but the Carrier AC still doesn't accept commands from the remote control, there might be dirt or blockage preventing the remote control from working correctly. Remove the batteries from inside the chamber and inspect the metal contacts of the battery chamber.
