Maintenance Service and Troubleshooting

1. No cooling

No cooling

Does compressor

run after turning power
off for five minutes and

turning back on?

Check and repair according to
"The compressor does not
work" chart.

YES

Does compressor

run naturally and is
condenser cooling
too slowly?

YES

Blocked by ice or debris. Change
filter and refrigerant.

Refrigerant is leaking. Check

NO

and repair.

The correct amount of refrigerant should

!

be added to unit when recharging.
