(b)
Things to check prior to troubleshooting (behaviors listed below are normal)
(2) Troubleshooting procedure
NOTE
Rather than a
product trouble
(see the List of Check Codes below), the problem could have been caused by
a microprocessor malfunction attributable to a poor quality of the power source or an external noise. Check
for possible noise sources, and shield the remote controller wiring and signal wires as necessary.

A compressor would not start
• Could it just be the 3-minute
s
delay period (3 minutes after compressor
shutdown)?
• Could it just be the air conditioner having gone
thermostats
OFF?
• Could it just be the air conditioner operating in fan mode or put on the timer?
• Could it just be the system going through initial communication?
2
An indoor fan would not start
• Could it just be cold air discharge prevention control, which is part of
heating?
3
An outdoor fan would not start or would
change speed for no reason
• Could it just be cooling operation under low outside temperature
conditions?
• Could it just be defrosting operation?
4
An indoor fan would not stop
• Could it just be the elimination of residual heat being performed as part of
the air conditioner shutdown process after heating operation?
5
The air conditioner would not respond to a
start/stop command from a remote controller
• Could it just be the air conditioner operation under external or remote
control?
When a
problem
occurs, proceed with troubleshooting in accordance with the procedure shown below.
CAUTION
The cooling performance may decling considerably when total operating capacity of cooling indoor units
is less than 4 HP
while ambient temperature is below
0°C.
