VRV IV compressor unit for indoor installation
4P408443-1B – 2016.04
Malfunction
Measure
If a safety device such as a fuse, a
breaker or an earth leakage breaker
frequently actuates or the ON/OFF
switch does not properly work.
Turn off the main power
switch.
If water leaks from the unit.
Stop the operation.
The operation switch does not work
well.
Turn off the power.
If the user interface display indicates the
unit number, the operation lamp flashes
and the malfunction code appears.
Notify your installer and
report the malfunction
code.
If the system does not properly operate except for the above
mentioned cases and none of the above mentioned malfunctions is
evident, investigate the system according to the following
procedures.
Malfunction
Measure
If the system does not
operate at all.
▪ Check if there is no power failure. Wait
until power is restored. If power failure
occurs during operation, the system
automatically restarts immediately after
the power supply is recovered.
▪ Check if no fuse has blown or breaker
has worked. Change the fuse or reset the
breaker if necessary.
If the system goes into
fan only operation, but
as soon as it goes into
heating or cooling
operation, the system
stops.
▪ Check if air inlet or outlet of heat
exchanger unit or indoor unit is not
blocked by obstacles. Remove any
obstacle and make it well-ventilated.
▪ Check if the user interface display shows
(time to clean the air filter). (Refer to
"13 Maintenance and service" on
page 37
and "Maintenance" in the indoor
unit manual.)
The system operates
but cooling or heating
is insufficient.
▪ Check if air inlet or outlet of heat
exchanger unit or indoor unit is not
blocked by obstacles. Remove any
obstacle and make it well-ventilated.
▪ Check if the air filter is not clogged (refer
to "Maintenance" in the indoor unit
manual).
▪ Check the temperature setting.
▪ Check the fan speed setting on your user
interface.
▪ Check for open doors or windows. Shut
doors and windows to prevent wind from
coming in.
▪ Check if there are too many occupants in
the room during cooling operation. Check
if the heat source of the room is
excessive.
▪ Check if direct sunlight enters the room.
Use curtains or blinds.
▪ Check if the air flow angle is proper.
If after checking all above items, it is impossible to fix the problem
yourself, contact your installer and state the symptoms, the complete
model name of the unit (with manufacturing number if possible) and
the installation date (possibly listed on the warranty card).
