switch activated
02 Outdoor unit Activation of the safety device
Failure of fan motor, drain discharge, PCB, relay, oat 
switch activated
03
Transmission
Abnormal transmission between outdoor
and indoor units
Incorrect wiring, failure of PCB, tripping of fuse, power 
supply OFF
04
Abnormal transmission between inverter
PCB (DIP-IPM) and outdoor unit PCB 
(PCB1)
Abnormal transmission between PCB
05 Power supply
Abnormal operation of picking up phase
signal
Main power supply phase is reversely connected or one
phase is not connected.
06 Voltage
Excessively low voltage or excessively high
voltage for the inverter
Incorrect wiring or insufcient capacity of power supply 
wiring
07
Cycle
