Main code
Cause
Solution
▪ The stop valve of an outdoor unit is left closed.
▪ The piping and wiring of the specified indoor unit are not
connected correctly to the outdoor unit.
▪ Open the stop valve on both the gas and liquid side.
▪ Confirm that the piping and wiring of the specified indoor
unit are connected correctly to the outdoor unit.
