10-2. FAILURE MODE RECALL FUNCTION

Outline of the function

This air conditioner can memorize the abnormal condition which has occurred once.

Even though LED indication listed on the troubleshooting check table (10-4.) disappears, the memorized failure details

can be recalled.

This mode is very useful when the unit needs to be repaired for the abnormality which does not recur.
