• Once abnormality has occurred during operation, the unit

will stop its operation, and Timer LED blinks.

• Although Timer LED goes off when power supply is turned

off, if the unit is operated under a breakdown condition, the
LED will light up again.

• In operation after breakdown repair, the Timer LED will no

more blink. The last error code (abnormality) will be stored in
IC memory.

• To make a diagnosis

1. Timer LED start to blink and the unit automatically

stops the operation.

2. Press the CHECK button on the remote controller

continuously for 5 seconds.

3. “- -” will be displayed on the remote controller display.

Note: Display only for “- -”. (No transmitting signal, no
receiving sound and no Power LED blinking.)

4. Press the “TIMER” 

 or 

 button on the remote

controller. The code “H00” (no abnormality) will be
displayed and signal will be transmitted to the main
unit.

5. Every press of the button (up or down) will increase

abnormality numbers and transmit abnormality code
signal to the main unit.

6. When the latest abnormality code on the main unit

and code transmitted from the remote controller are
matched, power LED will light up for 30 seconds and
a beep sound (continuously for 4 seconds) will be
heard. If no codes are matched, power LED will light
up for 0.5 seconds and no sound will be heard.

7. The breakdown diagnosis mode will be canceled

unless pressing the CHECK button continuously for 5
seconds or operation the unit for 30 seconds.

8. The LED will be off if the unit is turned off or the

RESET button on the main unit is pressed.

• To display memorized error (Protective operation)

1. Turn power on.
2. Press the CHECK button on the remote controller

continuously for 5 seconds.

3. “- -” will be displayed on the remote controller display.

Note: Display only for “- -”. (No transmitting signal, no
receiving sound and no Power LED blinking.)

4. Press the “TIMER” 

 or 

 button on the remote

controller. The code “H00” (no abnormality) will be
displayed and signal will be transmitted to the main
unit. The power LED lights up. If no abnormality is
stored in the memory, three beeps sound will be
heard.

5. Every press of the button (up or down) will increase

abnormality numbers and transmit abnormality code
signal to the main unit.

6. When the latest abnormality code on the main unit

and code transmitted from the remote controller are
matched, power LED will light up for 30 seconds and
a beep sound (continuously for 4 seconds) will be
heard. If no codes are matched, power LED will light
up for 0.5 seconds and no sound will be heard.

7. The breakdown diagnosis mode will be canceled

unless pressing the CHECK button continuously for 5
seconds or operating the unit for 30 seconds.

8. The same diagnosis can be repeated by turning

power on again.

• To clear memorized error (Protective operation) status

1. Turn power on (in standby condition).
2. Press the AUTO button for 5 seconds (A beep

receiving sound) on the main unit to operate the unit
at Forced Cooling Operation mode.

3. Press the CHECK button on the remote controller for

about 1 second with a pointed object to transmit
signal to main unit. A beep sound is heard from main
unit and the data is cleared.

• Temporary Operation (Depending on breakdown status)

1. Press the AUTO button (A beep receiving sound) on

the main unit to operate the unit. (Remote control will
become possible.)

2. The unit can temporarily be used until repaired.

Note:
“O” - Frequency measured and fan speed fixed.

The memory data of error code is erased when the power supply is cut off, or press the Auto Switch until “beep” sound heard
following by pressing the “CHECK” button at Remote Control.
Although operation forced to stop when abnormality detected, emergency operation is possible for certain errors (refer to Error
Codes Table) by using Remote Control or Auto Switch at indoor unit. However, the Remote Control signal receiving sound is
changed from one “beep” to four “beep” sounds.
