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.

• Carry out the measurement of pressure, electric current, and temperature fifteen minutes after an operation is 
started. 
 

When the air-conditioner is stopped due to malfunction detected by itself, the operation can be restarted using AUTO 
Switch on the indoor unit. In forced operation, the frequency for compressor and fan speed can not be changed and 
the signal receiving sound is different. 
Normal Operation ON: “pep” 
Forced Operation ON: “pep”, “pep”, “pep”, “pep” 
Stop: “pep” 
Note: Refer to the Diagnosis Code Table for the malfunction when forced operation is not available.

 

1. Keeping the CHECK button on the remote controller depressed for 5 seconds, error code ranging fromH11 to H99 

can be displayed on the remote controller. 

2. The error code is changed and diagnosis signal is transmitted to the indoor unit by pressing the Temp Up button on 

the remote control. 

3. When the malfunction of the air-conditioner matches the error code on the remote control, four beeps can be heard 

from the indoor unit and the operation indicator will light up. 

4. Keep the CHECK button depressed continuously for 5 seconds to cancel the diagnosis function.
