[3] AIR CONDITIONER OPERATION IN THERMISTOR ERROR
* These models have following thermistors.
The errors for the thermistors that are not mentioned above are irrelevant.
These indoor units don’t have power relay.

judgment
Cooling mode is 
activated even if 
room temperature 
is low.
Cooling mode is acti-
vated in most cases.
Heating mode is 
activated even if 
room temperature 
is high.
Heating mode is 
always activated.
Cooling Frequency control Room becomes too 
cold.
Air conditioner oper-
ates in full power 
even when set tem-
perature is reached.
Room does not 
become cool.
Compressor does not 
operate.
Dehumidifying Room temperature

Frequency control
Normal operation. Room temperature is 
stored in memory as 
31.0℃, and com-
pressor does not 
stop.
Normal operation. Room temperature is 
stored in memory as 
18.5℃, and compres-
sor does not operate.
Heating Frequency control Room does not 
become warm.
Hot keep status 
results immediately 
af
ter operation starts.
Frequency does not 
increase above 30 
Hz (40 Hz).
Room becomes too 
warm.
Air conditioner oper-
ates in full power even 
when set temperature 
is reached.

ration may freeze.
Indoor unit evapora-
tion may freeze.
Compressor stops 
occasionally.
Compressor does not 
operate.
Heating Cold air prevention Cold air prevention 
deactivates too 
soon and cold air 
discharges.
Compressor oper-
ates at low speed or 
stop, and frequency 
does not increase.
Cold air prevention 
deactivates too 
slow.
Cold air prevention 
does not deactivate, 
and indoor unit fan 
does not rotate.
