NOTE
Rather than a genuine fault (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.
Behavior
"E28" error
Possible cause
• Could it just be the 3-minute delay period (3 minutes after compressor
shutdown)?
• Could it just be the air conditioner having gone thermo 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?
• Could it just be cold air discharge prevention control, which is part of
heating?
• Could it just be cooling operation under low outside temperature
conditions?
• Could it just be defrosting operation?
• Could it just be the elimination of residual heat being performed as part of
the air conditioner shutdown process after heating operation?
• Could it just be the air conditioner operation under external or remote
control?
