12. Protection Control
12.1 Restart Control (Time Delay Safety Control)
• The compressor will not turn on within 3 minutes from the moment operation stops, although the unit is turned on
again by pressing OFF/ON button at remote control within this period.
• This control is not applicable if the power supply is cut off and on again.
• This phenomenon is to balance the pressure inside the refrigerant cycle.
12.2 30 Seconds Forced Operation
• Once the air conditioner is turned on, the compressor will not stop within 30 seconds in a normal operation
although the intake air temperature has reached the thermo-off temperature. However, force stop by pressing the
OFF/ON button at the remote control is permitted or the Auto OFF/ON button at indoor unit.
• The reason for the compressor to force operation for minimum 30 seconds is to allow the refrigerant oil run in a
full cycle and return back to the outdoor unit.
12.3 Total Running Current Control
• When the outdoor unit total running current (AC) exceeds X value, the frequency instructed for compressor
operation will be decreased.
• If the running current does not exceed X value for 5 seconds, the frequency instructed will be increased.
• However, if total outdoor unit running current exceeds Y value, compressor will be stopped immediately for 3
minutes.

12.4 IPM (Power Transistor) Prevention Control
• DC Peak Current Control
o When electric current to IPM exceeds set value of 13.2A (S9NK), 13.1A (S12NK), 17.1A (S18NK), 27.7A
(S24NK) within 30 seconds, the compressor will stop operation. Then, operation will restart after 1 minute.
o For second occurrence onwards, if the set value exceeds again within 30 seconds, the compressor will stop
operation. Then, operation will restart after 2 minutes.
o If this condition repeats continuously for 7 times, all indoor and outdoor relays will be cut off, timer LED will
be blinking “(“F99” is indicated).
• Overheating prevention
o When the IPM temperature raises to 120°C the compressor will stop immediately.
o Compressor operation restarts after 3 minutes the temperature decreases to 115°C.
o If this condition repeats continuously 4 times within 20 minutes, timer LED will be blinking (“F96” is indicated).
