Possible Causes

Room temperature sensor located too close to cold air outlet, Dirty filters causing uneven airflow, Oversized Royal Clima unit for room size, Faulty room temperature sensor

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn OFF power before accessing sensors.

  • Step 1 – Clean filters: Ensure proper airflow to avoid cold air recirculating directly onto the sensor.
  • Step 2 – Check sensor position: Make sure the room sensor is in the air intake area, not hanging in the cold air stream.
  • Step 3 – Adjust setpoint: Set a moderate temperature (24–25°C) and avoid frequent manual changes.

When to call a technician: Persistent short cycling may require sensor replacement or control board calibration.
