Unit frequently turns on and off (short cycling) without reaching set temperature.

Safety first: Turn off power before removing covers.

• Step 1 – Clean filters and coil: Ensure unrestricted airflow through the indoor unit.
• Step 2 – Check sensor location: Confirm the room temperature sensor is in the air intake and not touching the coil or exposed to direct sunlight.
• Step 3 – Avoid obstructions: Do not block the front of the indoor unit with furniture or curtains.
• Step 4 – Adjust setpoint and fan: Use a moderate set temperature and continuous fan mode to reduce cycling.
• Step 5 – Capacity issue: If the unit is significantly oversized, short cycling may be unavoidable; consider consulting an HVAC professional.
