Does the left lamp of OPERATION INDICATOR lamp on
the indoor unit blink at the interval of 0.5 seconds?
Blinks: Either indoor or outdoor unit is abnormal. Beep is
emitted at the same timing as the blinking of the
left lamp on the indoor unit.

ON for 3 seconds? When it stays ON for 3 seconds (without
beep):The outdoor unit is abnormal.

table of indoor unit failure mode recall function. (Refer to indoor unit service
