perature is not in the cooling range 3 min
-
utes after compressor start and 6 minutes
after the liquid or condenser/evaporator
pipe is out of cooling range.
Note 1:
It takes at least 9 minutes to detect.
Note 2: Abnormality P8 is not detected in
drying mode.
Cooling range : -3°C

<Heating mode>
When 10 seconds have passed after the
compressor starts operation and the hot
adjustment mode has finished, the unit is
detected as abnormal when condenser/
evaporator pipe temperature is not in heat
