Indoor Unit - Mitsubishi Electric SUZ-M-VA Series Service Manual

11-2. FAILURE MODE RECALL FUNCTION
Outline of the function
This air conditioner can memorize the abnormal condition which has occurred once.
Even though OPERATION INDICATOR lamp indication listed on the troubleshooting check table (11-4.) disappears, the
memorized failure details can be recalled.
This mode is very useful when the unit needs to be repaired for the abnormality which does not recur.
