Models
All outdoor units
Method of Error
Detection
Excessive charging of refrigerant is detected by using the outdoor air temperature, heat exchanger
deicer temperature and liquid pipe temperature during a check operation.
Error Decision
Conditions

temperature, the heat exchanger deicer temperature, and the liquid pipe temperature. If the
calculated amount exceeds the normal amount by 30%, too much refrigerant has been added.
(Adding only slightly more than the normal amount of refrigerant may also cause
F6 to be
displayed)
