Table 1 Fault Display on Indoor Wired Controller 
Origin of 
malfunction 
signal 
When outdoor unit detects the high pressure switch is cut off for 3s 
successively, high pressure protection will occur. All the loads (except 
the 4-way valve in heating mode) will be switched off. In this case, all 
the buttons and remote control signals except ON/OFF button will be 
disabled and cannot be recovered automatically. Switch off the unit or 
re-energize the unit after cutting off power to eliminate this protection. 
Indoor 
evaporator 
temperature 
sensor   
If detecting that the evaporator temperature is lower than protective 
temp. Value after the unit has been running for a period of time under 
cooling or dry mode, the unit will report this fault, in which case the 
compressor and outdoor fan motor will be stopped. The unit will not run 
until evaporator temperature is higher than the protective temp. value 
and the compressor is stopped for 3min. 
If it is detected within 30s successively that the low-pressure switch is 
cut off under ON or standby state, the unit will report low pressure 
protection. If the fault occurs successively 3 times within 30min, the unit 
cannot be recovered automatically. 
Refrigerant 
lacking 
protection   
If the unit reports system refrigerant lacking within 10min after turning 
on the unit, the unit will stop operation. If the fault occurs successively 3 
times, the unit cannot be recovered automatically. 
Refrigerant 
recycling mode   
If enter refrigerant recycling mode through special operation, E3 will be 
displayed. After exiting refrigerant recycling mode, the code will 
disappear. 
Compressor 
high discharge 
temperature 
protection   
Compressor 
discharge 
temperature is 
high   
If outdoor unit detects that the discharge temperature is higher than 
protective temp. Value, the unit will report high discharge temperature 
protection. If the protection occurs over 6 times, the unit cannot be 
recovered automatically. Switch off the unit or re-energize the unit after 
cutting off power to eliminate this protection. 
Communicatio
n malfunction   
Communicatio
n between 
indoor and 
outdoor 
mainboard   
If the outdoor unit does not receive data from indoor unit, 
communication malfunction will be reported. If there is communication 
abnormity between display board and indoor unit, communication 
malfunction will be reported too. 
Malfunction of 
indoor fan 
motor   
If the indoor unit does not receive signal from indoor fan motor for 30s 
successively when the fan motor is operating, indoor fan motor 
malfunction will be reported. In this case, the unit can automatically 
resume operation after stopping. If the malfunction occurs 6 times 
within one hour, the unit cannot be recovered automatically. Switch off 
the unit or re-energize the unit after cutting off power to eliminate this 
malfunction. 
 
If cut-off of water level switch is detected for 8s successively once 
energized, the system will enter full water protection. In this case, 
switch off the unit and then switch it on to eliminate this malfunction. 
Malfunction of 
indoor ambient 
temperature 
sensor at air 
return port 
Indoor ambient 
temperature 
sensor 
If the indoor ambient temperature sensor is detected of open circuit or 
short circuit for 5s successively, indoor ambient temperature sensor 
malfunction will be reported. The unit can automatically resume 
operation after the malfunction disappears. If indoor ambient 
temperature sensor malfunction occurs in fan mode, only the error code 
is displayed and the indoor unit can work normally. 
Malfunction of 
evaporator 
temperature 
sensor   
Evaporator 
temperature 
sensor   
If the indoor evaporator temperature sensor is detected of open circuit 
or short circuit for 5s successively, evaporator temperature sensor 
malfunction will be reported. The unit can automatically resume 
operation after the malfunction disappears. If evaporator temperature 
sensor malfunction occurs in fan mode, only the error code is displayed 
and the indoor unit can work normally.
