Indoor unit fan rota-
tion speed error
Operation stops if rotation pulse signal from
indoor unit fan indicates abnormally low speed
(about 300 rpm or slower).

2-way valve freeze
prevention
Compressor stops if temperature of outdoor unit
2-way valve remains below 0°C for 10 contin-
uous minutes during cooling or dehumidifying
operation.
When in cooling
or dehumidifying
operation
Automatic reset
when tempera-
ture of 2-way
valve rises above
10°C.
None None Yes
3
Outdoor unit heat
exchanger overheat
shutdown
Operation frequency lowers if outdoor unit heat
exchanger temperature exceeds about 55°C
during cooling operation.
Compressor stops if outdoor unit heat exchanger
temperature exceeds about 55°C for 120 sec-
onds at minimum frequency.
When in cooling
or dehumidifying
operation
Automatic reset
after safety period
(180 sec).
None None Ye s
4
Compressor dis-
charge overheat
shutdown
Operating frequency lowers if temperature of
compressor discharge thermistor (TH1) falls
below about 110°C.
Compressor stops if temperature of compressor
discharge thermistor (TH1) remains at about
110°C (for 120 seconds in cooling operation, or
60 seconds in heating operation) at minimum
frequency.
When compres-
sor is in operation
Automatic reset
after safety period
(180 sec).
None None Ye s
5
Dehumidifying opera-
tion temporary stop
Compressor stops if outside air temperature
thermistor is lower than about 16°C during dehu-
midifying operation.
When in dehu-
midifying opera-
tion
Automatic reset
when outside air
temperature rises
above 16°C.

7 AC over current error
Operating frequency lowers if outdoor AC current
exceeds peak control current value. Compressor
stops if compressor AC current exceeds peak
control current value at minimum frequency.
