low.
No AC power input for 3
minutes or longer: pre-trip - 5
1. Check R/S/T power.
2. Check inverter control PCB.
3. Check outdoor unit control
PCB.
Insufficient gas level
detected.
The following conditions
continue for 1 minute.
• Discharge temp. is 203 ˚F or
higher.
• Electronic control valve is at
step 480.
• Current value from MDC is
2.0 A or less.
Check refrigerant cycle
(gas leak).
4-way valve locked

1. Check 4-way valve.
2. Check 4-way valve wiring.
3. Check outdoor unit control
PCB.

1. Position detection trouble
2. Overcurrent protection

• Check outdoor unit control
PCB.
• Refer to outdoor unit fan
judgment methods.

in inverter control
Inverter stops after alarm is
detected. Alarm is output
when inverter stops (pre-trip)
consecutively 4 times.
1. Stops immediately when
restarted.
• Layer short in the
compressor
2. Check inverter control
PCB.
• Wiring trouble
1. Check the high pressure
switch connector is
securely connected.
2. Check the ourdoor unit heat
exchanger is not clogged
(cooling operation).
3. Check the indoor unit air
filter has not become
clogged (heating operation)
If MAX (C1,C2) is 142
°F or
higher, the compressor stops
one. The compressor restarts
three time, and if the
temperature does not
decrease to less than 142
°F,
the alert “P20” is displayed.
