In order to diagnose malfunctions, make sure that there are no
electrical problems before inspecting the refrigeration cycle.
Such problems include insufficient insulation, problem with the
power source, malfunction of a compressor and a fan.
The normal outlet air temperature and pressure of the
refrigeration cycle depends on various conditions, the standard
values for them are shown in the table on the right.

• Once abnormality has occurred during operation, the unit

will stop its operation, and Timer or both Timer and ION
LEDs blink. (The unit does not stop under ION abnormality.)

• 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 or both timer and ION LEDs 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 “TEMP” 

 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 operating the unit for 30 seconds.

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

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 “TEMP” 

 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.
2. Press the AUTO button for 5 seconds (A beep receiv-

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

3. Press the CHECK button on the remote controller.

• Temporary Operation (Depending on breakdown status)
