Symptoms that are not air
conditioner troubles

Following symptoms are not air conditioner troubles:

19.2.1

Symptom: The system does not operate

▪ The  air  conditioner  does  not  start  immediately  after  the  ON/OFF

button  on  the  user  interface  is  pressed.  If  the  operation  lamp
lights, the system is in normal condition. To prevent overloading of
the compressor motor, the air conditioner starts 5 minutes after it
is  turned  ON  again  in  case  it  was  turned  OFF  just  before.  The
same  starting  delay  occurs  after  the  operation  mode  selector
button was used.

▪ If  "Under  Centralized  Control"  is  displayed  on  the  user  interface,

pressing the operation button causes the display to blink for a few
seconds.  The  blinking  display  indicates  that  the  user  interface
cannot be used.

▪ The  system  does  not  start  immediately  after  the  power  supply  is

turned  on.  Wait  one  minute  until  the  micro  computer  is  prepared
for operation.

19.2.2

Symptom: Cool/Heat cannot be changed
over

▪ When  the  display  shows 

  (change-over  under  centralized

control), it shows that this is a slave user interface.

▪ When the cool/heat changeover remote control switch is installed

and  the  display  shows 

  (change-over  under  centralized

control), this is because cool/heat changeover is controlled by the
cool/  heat  changeover  remote  control  switch.  Ask  your  dealer
where the remote control switch is installed.

19.2.3

Symptom: Fan operation is possible, but
cooling and heating do not work

Immediately  after  the  power  is  turned  on.  The  micro  computer  is
getting  ready  to  operate  and  is  performing  a  communication  check
with all indoor units. Please wait 12 minutes (max.) till this process is
finished.

19.2.4

Symptom: The fan strength does not
correspond to the setting

The  fan  speed  does  not  change  even  if  the  fan  speed  adjustment
button  in  pressed.  During  heating  operation,  when  the  room
temperature  reaches  the  set  temperature,  the  outdoor  unit  goes  off
and the indoor unit changes to whisper fan speed. This is to prevent
cold  air  blowing  directly  on  occupants  of  the  room.  The  fan  speed
will  not  change  even  when  another  indoor  unit  is  in  heating
operation, if the button is pressed.

19.2.5

Symptom: The fan direction does not
correspond to the setting

The  fan  direction  does  not  correspond  with  the  user  interface
display. The fan direction does not swing. This is because the unit is
being controlled by the micro computer.

19.2.6

Symptom: White mist comes out of a unit
(Indoor unit)

▪ When humidity is high during cooling operation. If the interior of an

indoor unit is extremely contaminated, the temperature distribution
inside  a  room  becomes  uneven.  It  is  necessary  to  clean  the
interior  of  the  indoor  unit.  Ask  your  dealer  for  details  on  cleaning
the unit. This operation requires a qualified service person.

▪ Immediately  after  the  cooling  operation  stops  and  if  the  room

temperature  and  humidity  are  low.  This  is  because  warm
refrigerant  gas  flows  back  into  the  indoor  unit  and  generates
steam.
