(2)If the self-diagnostics function fails to operate

Check the indoor unit.

Is the fuse blown?

Normal

Replace the controller.

•No indicators illuminate and the indoor fan does not rotate.

•Check the power voltage.

Blown

Replace the circuit board or the fuse.

If there are no problems with the above, then check the outdoor unit.

For the "Test run" procedure, refer to the Appendix B "Installation Instructions".

T-RUN : Test run (compressor and fan motor turn ON).

TEST/MV : Compresses time to 1/60th (accelerates operation by 60 times faster than normal).
