When asking your dealer for an intervention, always state:
▪ The complete model name of the unit.
▪ The manufacturing number (stated on the nameplate of the unit).
▪ The installation date.
▪ The symptoms or malfunction, and details of the defect.
WARNING
▪ Do NOT modify, disassemble, remove, reinstall or
repair the unit yourself as incorrect dismantling or
installation may cause an electric shock or fire. Contact
your dealer.
▪ In case of accidental refrigerant leaks, make sure there
are no naked flames. The refrigerant itself is entirely
safe, non-toxic and non-combustible, but it will
generate toxic gas when it accidentally leaks into a
room where combustible air from fan heaters, gas
cookers, etc. is present. Always have qualified service
personnel confirm that the point of leakage has been
repaired or corrected before resuming operation.

Troubleshooting
If one of the following malfunctions occur, take the measures shown
below and contact your dealer.
WARNING
Stop operation and shut off the power if anything
unusual occurs (burning smells etc.).
Leaving the unit running under such circumstances may
cause breakage, electric shock or fire. Contact your dealer.
The system MUST be repaired by a qualified service person.
If the system does NOT operate properly except for the above
mentioned cases and none of the above mentioned malfunctions is
evident, investigate the system in accordance with 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
power is restored.
▪ Check if no fuse has blown or breaker is
activated. 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 outdoor or
indoor unit is not blocked by obstacles.
Remove any obstacles and make sure
the air can flow freely.
▪ Check if the user interface display shows
(time to clean the air filter). (Refer to
11] and
"Maintenance" in the indoor unit manual.)
Malfunction
Measure
The system operates
but cooling or heating
is insufficient.
▪ Check if air inlet or outlet of outdoor or
indoor unit is not blocked by obstacles.
Remove any obstacles and make sure
the air can flow freely.
▪ 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. Close
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).
8.1
Error codes: Overview
In case a malfunction code appears on the indoor unit user interface
display, contact your installer and inform the malfunction code, the
unit type, and serial number (you can find this information on the
nameplate of the unit).
For your reference, a list with malfunction codes is provided. You
can, depending on the level of the malfunction code, reset the code
by pushing the ON/OFF button. If not, ask your installer for advice.
8.2
Symptoms that are NOT system
malfunctions
The following symptoms are NOT system malfunctions:
8.2.1
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.
8.2.2
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.
