5-2-13 Emergency Operation Mode
1. Problems with the outdoor unit
Emergency operation mode is a mode in which outdoor units that are operating normally take over the operation of the out-
door units that are experiencing problems. (EP400-EP600YSKM models go into an emergency operation mode when one
outdoor unit is in trouble, and EP650-EP900YSKM models go into an emergency operation mode when one or two outdoor
units are in trouble.)
This mode can be started by performing an error reset via the remote controller.
(1) Starting the emergency operation
1) When an error occurs, the error source and the error code will be displayed on the display on the remote controller.
2) The error is reset using the remote controller.
3) If an error code appears that permits an emergency operation in step 1) above, (See the table below.), the retry operation
starts.
4) If the same error is detected during the retry operation (step 3 above), an emergency operation can be started by resetting
the error via the remote controller.
