Alarm code
07
Decrease in discharge gas superheat.
•
The RUN indicator flashes and the ALARM indication is displayed on the remote control switch.
•
The unit no., the alarm code and the unit code are alternatively displayed in the temperature setting section and the unit
no. and alarm code are displayed on the outdoor unit's PCB1 display.
* In the case that the discharge gas superheat is less than 10 degrees on the upper part of the compressor is maintained
for 30 minutes, a retry operation is carried out. However, when the alarm occurs twice in two hours, the alarm code is
indicated.
Is the thermistor on
top of compressor
normal? *1)
Is superheat value
under 10°C?
Yes
Check the high-pressure
and compressor discharge
gas temperature and
calculate superheat value
by outdoor unit PCB1.
Remove sudden
fluctuation of load
like short path by
discharge air from
the outdoor unit, or
the cause of frequent
thermo-ON/OFF.
Faulty Thermistor
No
No
