NOTE: The indoor unit may have been connected to a non-low-standby-power model outdoor unit. To use a low-standby-power
model, clear the error history by referring to "Deleting the memorized abnormal condition" described in 10-2.1. When the
error history is being cleared, the connection information also will be initialized. The indoor unit will be compatible with a
low-standby-power model after initialization. If the operation indicator lamp continues to blink as shown in No.1 after the
procedure, refer to 10-6.
