Alarm code
14
Abnormal operation of the thermistor for the indoor unit heat exchanger gas pipe
temperature (gas piping thermistor)
This alarm code is displayed when the thermistor is short-circuited (less than 0.24 kΩ) or cut (greater than 840 kΩ) during
the cooling process or the heating process. The system is automatically restarted when the fault is removed.
