ALERTS (The control system has five (5) customer alerts)

CHECK FILTER

 

 

 

 

 

appears on screen. The word “

 

” appears next to the

 

button.

The

alert is issued when the fan

run time is greater than 500 hours.

This alert may be reset by the user (Refer to Special Functions, Filter Reset).

Maintenance Required – When maintenance is required, a service icon

appears on screen. This icon will not be dismissed until maintenance has been performed. If the service icon

the icon is on standby the system has sensed an abnormal condition.

is established the service icon goes away.

Wait – The WAIT icon illuminates when the compressor lockout is active. Whenever the compressor shuts off, system pressures must be allowed to equalize. At this time, an internal timer begins a count-down from up to 240 seconds. If a demand for heat or cool occurs during this count-down

the WAIT icon displays letting you know that the compressor will not operate until the count-down has completed. This timer prevents damage to the unit if it tries to start too quickly after it stops running. Normally the

WAIT icon is off. Once the timer has cleared, the air conditioner will heat or cool based on the temperature setting. Electric heat is not affected by this timer.

Protection Alert (Freeze) – If the room freeze protection is active, the display indicates this by showing Room Freeze Protection "FRZ". Once

temperature is less than 40° F (4° C), and the air conditioner is equipped with electric heat, the room freeze protection will activate. The air conditioner will run high fan and electric heat until the room temperature reaches

46° F (8° C). Pressing the button delays the freeze protection function

Low Battery – When the battery is low a warning display will be inserted before other messages such as “COOL”. If the Low Battery alert is on, the battery in the control unit must be changed. Refer to the changing the battery procedure. Once the battery is changed, the alert message will go off. Refer to Troubleshooting Tips. Under normal conditions the battery life should be greater than 7 years.

presses to loop back to the hours setting. To exit the

selection process, the user presses the key which will go to the time screen.

Tuesday has been selected. The user presses to loop back to the hours setting. To exit the selection process and accept the changes, the user presses the BACK key which will go to the time screen.

Time Setting – When in the User Menu, on the Control Panel, use the

(UP) and

(DOWN) to select TIME. Push

, the hours segment

 

(UP) and

(DOWN) to set the hour, then push

 

 

 

(UP) and

(DOWN)

to set the minutes, then push .

NOTE: If the AM or PM indicator is incorrect, push until the hours

(UP) or (DOWN) to advance

the hour segment 12 hours, then push . The day of the week

displays. Use the (UP) or (DOWN) to select the current

day. Press the key to save and go back to the TIME screen.

Press (UP) to go to the next menu 1224.

R-410A specifications

Friedrich R-410A is an advanced refrigerant widely used in HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) systems, known for its high efficiency and environmental friendliness. As a hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) blend, R-410A has become the preferred alternative to R-22, which is being phased out due to its ozone-depleting potential. One of the main features of R-410A is its high latent heat of vaporization, which allows for efficient heat transfer and improved cooling performance in air conditioning units.

Technologically, R-410A operates at higher pressures than older refrigerants, meaning systems designed for R-410A need to be built with more robust components to safely handle these pressures. This results in a more compact system design that offers enhanced performance and reliability. The dual-component nature of R-410A—composed of difluoromethane (R-32) and pentafluoroethane (R-125)—provides an optimal balance of thermodynamic properties, leading to superior energy efficiency, especially in variable speed applications.

In terms of characteristics, R-410A has a higher cooling capacity, which enables HVAC systems to effectively cool larger spaces or run more efficiently when cooling smaller areas. The refrigerant is non-toxic and non-flammable, which enhances safety during its use. In addition, R-410A has a lower global warming potential relative to other refrigerants, making it a more environmentally responsible choice for modern cooling systems.

Moreover, R-410A systems typically require less refrigerant charge due to their efficiency, contributing to reduced greenhouse gas emissions. The adoption of R-410A aligns with regulatory trends aimed at minimizing the environmental impact of refrigerants in cooling applications.

Overall, the Friedrich R-410A refrigerant embodies a combination of technology and environmental stewardship, making it a cornerstone of contemporary HVAC design. Its ability to provide effective and energy-efficient cooling solutions while being compliant with modern environmental regulations positions R-410A as the refrigerant of choice for engineers and installers focused on sustainability and performance in air conditioning systems.
