malfunctions, disabling equipment operation. 
2.   When a signal transmission error occurs between the indoor and outdoor units. 
 
Diagnosis Step 
 
1.  Hold down TIMER CANCEL button for 5 seconds, a “    ” indication flashes on the temperature 
display section. 
2.  Press TIMER CANCEL repeatedly until indoor buzzer produces a long beep. This indicates the error 
code, refers to Error Codes table and is displayed on the temperature display section. 
3.  A short beep or two consecutive beeps indicate non-corresponding error codes.
