[Defrosting operation]
The defrosting operation provides the following control functions.
[Defrosting operation ending conditions]
When the following conditions are met, the defrosting operation ends.
However, when the compressor stops during a defrosting operation, if condition (Tb > 12.5°C) is not met at
the next compressor startup, the defrosting operation starts and a 10-minute counter is activated when the
software startup is completed.
