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

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).

1. Check 4-way valve.
2. Check 4-way valve wiring.

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.
