14.4.13    F90 (Power Factor Correction Protection) 

Malfunction Decision Conditions 

•

  During startup and operation of cooling and heating, when Power Factor Correction (PFC) protection circuitry at 

the outdoor unit main PCB senses abnormal high DC voltage level. 

 
Malfunction Caused 

•

  DC voltage peak due to power supply surge. 

•

  DC voltage peak due to compressor windings not uniform. 

•

  Faulty outdoor PCB.
