18.1 Symptoms that are NOT system
malfunctions
The following symptoms are NOT system malfunctions:
18.1.1

Symptom: The system does not operate

▪ The air conditioner does not start immediately after the ON/OFF
button on the user interface is pressed. If the operation lamp
lights, the system is in normal condition. To prevent overloading of
the compressor motor, the air conditioner starts 5 minutes after it
is turned ON again in case it was turned OFF just before. The
same starting delay occurs after the operation mode selector
button was used.
▪ If "Under Centralized Control" is displayed on the user interface,
pressing the operation button causes the display to blink for a few
seconds. The blinking display indicates that the user interface
cannot be used.
▪ The system does not start immediately after the power supply is
turned on. Wait one minute until the micro computer is prepared
for operation.
18.1.2 Symptom: The fan speed does not
correspond to the setting
The fan speed does not change even if the fan speed adjustment
button in pressed. During heating operation, when the room
temperature reaches the set temperature, the outdoor unit goes off
and the indoor unit changes to whisper fan speed. This is to prevent
cold air blowing directly on occupants of the room. The fan speed
will not change if the button is pressed.
18 Troubleshooting
Measure
▪ Check if there is no power failure. Wait
until power is restored. If power failure
occurs during operation, the system
automatically restarts immediately after
power is restored.
▪ Check if no fuse has blown or breaker is
activated. Change the fuse or reset the
breaker if necessary.
▪ Check if air inlet or outlet of outdoor or
indoor unit is not blocked by obstacles.
Remove any obstacles and make sure
the air can flow freely.
▪ Check if the air filter is not clogged (see
filter" [ 4 26]).
"17.2.1 To clean the air
▪ Check the temperature setting.
▪ Check the fan speed setting on your user
interface.
▪ Check for open doors or windows. Close
doors and windows to prevent wind from
coming in.
▪ Check if there are too many occupants in
the room during cooling operation. Check
if the heat source of the room is
excessive.
▪ Check if direct sunlight enters the room.
Use curtains or blinds.
▪ Check if the air flow angle is proper.
