code
When two indoor units are installed in the same room, in
order to prevent operating errors caused by using two
remote controls, cut a jumper wire at the remote control
printed circuit board (J - A) and cut a jumper wire at the
indoor printed circuit board (JX4). It is possible to select
from 4 types of transmission codes including one at time of
delivery condition (0).

•
•
•
• Carry out the measurements of pressure, electric current, and temperature fifteen minutes after an operation is started.
13.1.2. Diagnosis methods of a malfunction of a compressor
Nature of fault
Symptom
•
•
•
• Electric current during operation becomes approximately 20% lower than the normal value.
Insufficient compressing of a compressor
•
•
•
• The discharge tube of the compressor becomes abnormally hot (normally 70 to 90°C).
•
•
•
• The difference between high pressure and low pressure becomes almost zero.
•
•
•
• Electric current reaches a high level abnormally, and the value exceeds the limit of an
ammeter. In some cases, a breaker turns off.
Locked compressor
•
•
•
• The compressor has a humming sound.
