2. Error detection method
• Judge insufficient refrigerant
amount by detecting the
temperature differnce between
indoor heat exchanger (Thi-R)
and indoor return air (Thi-A).
• It detects at initial startup in
cooling or dehumidifying
mode after power ON.

Condition of error displayed
Anomalous stop at initial
detection
4. Presumable cause
• Defective indoor heat
exchanger temperature sensor
• Defective indoor return air
temperature sensor
• Defective indoor unit control
PCB
• Insufficient refrigerant
amount
Note: Insufcient refrigerant amount preventive control makes compressor stopped, if it judges insufcient refrigerant amount by detecting the
temperature difference between indoor heat exchanger (Thi-R) and return air temperature (Thi-A) for 5 minutes after compressor ON in
cooling or dehumidifying mode and for 9 minutes after compressor ON in heating mode. [ in cooling mode: (Thi-A)-(Thi-R)<4degC, in
heating mode: (Thi-R)-(Thi-A)<4degC]
