Service Diagnosis
During cooling operation, the freeze-up protection control (operation halt) is activated according
to the temperature detected by the indoor heat exchanger thermistor.
During heating operation, the temperature detected by the indoor heat exchanger thermistor is
used for the heating peak-cut control (operation halt, outdoor fan stop, etc.)
During cooling operation, the indoor heat exchanger temperature is below 0°C (32°F).
During heating operation, the indoor heat exchanger temperature is above about 60°C (140°F)
(depending on the model).
Be sure to turn off the power switch before connecting or disconnecting
