Indoor unit heat
exchanger overheat
shutdown
Operating frequency lowers if
indoor unit heat exchanger temper-
ature exceeds overheat tempera-
ture during heating operation.
Compressor stops if indoor unit
heat exchanger temperature
exceeds overheat temperature for
60 seconds at minimum frequency.
Overheat temperature setting value

Outdoor unit heat
exchanger overheat
shutdown
Operation frequency lowers if out-
door unit heat exchanger tempera-
ture exceeds about 55
C during
cooling operation.
Compressor stops if outdoor unit
heat exchanger temperature
exceeds about 55

Compressor dis-
charge overheat shut-
down
Operating frequency lowers if tem-
perature of compressor chamber
thermistor (TH1) falls below about
110
C.
Compressor stops if temperature of
compressor chamber thermistor
(TH1) remains at about 110
C (for
120 seconds in cooling operation,
or 60 seconds in heating operation)
at minimum frequency.
When compressor is in
operation
Automatic reset after
safety period (180 sec).
