'20 • DXK-T-321 Notes (1) When the outdoor heat exchanger temperature is in the range of B-C ºC, the speed is reduced by 8 rps at each 20 seconds. (2) When the temperature is C ºC or higher, the compressor is stopped. (3) When the outdoor heat exchanger temperature is in the range of A-B ºC, if the compressor speed is been maintained and the operation has continued for more than 20 seconds at the same speed, it returns to the normal cooling operation.

'20 • DXK-T-321 10. MAINTENANCE DATA (1) Cautions (a) If you are disassembling and checking an air-conditioner, be sure to turn off the power before beginning. When working on indoor units, let the unit sit for about 1 minute after turning off the power before you begin work. When working on an out- door unit, there may be an electrical charge applied to the main circuit (electrolytic condenser), so begin work only after discharging this electrical charge (to DC 10 V or lower).
'20 • DXK-T-321 (4) Troubleshooting procedure (If the air-conditioner runs) Confirm the contents of the customer complaint. The cause of the trouble can be specifically identified. Check the self-diagnosis display. Eliminate the cause of the trouble and perform an operation check. See page 55.
'20 • DXK-T-321 (5) Self-diagnosis table When this air-conditioner performs an emergency stop, the reason why the emergency stop occurred is displayed by the flash- ing of display lights. If the air-conditioner is operated using the wireless remote control 3 minutes or more after the emergen- cy stop, the trouble display stops and the air-conditioner resumes operation.
'20 • DXK-T-321 (6) Service mode (Trouble mode access function) This air-conditioner is capable of recording error displays and protective stops (service data) which have occurred in the past. If self-diagnosis displays cannot be confirmed, it is possible to get a grasp of the conditions at the time trouble oc- curred by checking these service data.
'20 • DXK-T-321 *3: To count the number of flashes in the service mode, count the number of flashes after the light lights up for 1.5 second initially (start signal). (The time that the light lights up for 1.5 second (start signal) is not counted in the number of flashes.) •...

'20 • DXK-T-321 (c) Power transistor inspection procedure [Use a tester with a needle indicator for the inspection. (Do not use a digital tester. Check in the AC 300 volt range.)] (1) If there is a self-diagnosis display, inspect the compressor system (burns, wiring mistakes, etc.) If no problems are found, check the output of the power transistor.

'20 • DXK-T-321 (a) Inspection of electronic expansion valve Electronic expansion valve operates for approx. 10 seconds after the power on, in order to determine its aperture. Check the operating sound and voltage during the period of time. (Voltage cannot be checked during operation in which only the aperture change occurs.) (i) If it is heard the sound of operating electronic expansion valve, it is almost normal.
