D: Entering Conditions
When the compressor running frequency is lower than 58Hz (E) continuously for 8 hrs, the system
will enter the oil return cycle.. In the course of mode changeover, manual unit stop or protective
unit stop, the time will be accumulative. After the compressor restarts up, the time will be counted
continuously. In a continuous 8 hrs, if the compressor running frequency is not less than 72Hz for
over 10 minutes continuously, the accumulative time will be cleared. Also after the heating
defrosting, the time will be cleared.
F: Error Code Occurrence During Oil Return Cycle
If the system stops during an oil return cycle due to an error code, the cycle timing will resume
when the system restarts after the error is cleared.
If there is a switch from heating to cooling, or from cooling to heating during the oil return cycle
timing, and the system stops due to an error code, the oil return cycle will occur immediately
when the error code is cleared.

Oil Return Cycle
When the compressor is operating at low load
conditions, or the operating frequency has
been below 70Hz continuously for 4 hours,
the system will enter the oil return cycle. This
ensures that oil which may be trapped within
the system at low loads will return to the
compressor crankcase.
If a 4-hour low speed run time has occurred,
the oil return procedure initiates by
automatically ramping up the compressor
speed to at least 85Hz for a pre-set time, up
to a 9-minute maximum. The higher speed
will wick hiding oil into the now faster-moving
refrigerant and deposit it in the compressor
crankcase. To avoid occupant discomfort
when the oil return cycle is active, the indoor
fan shuts o.
Should an error code result in a system
shutdown, the oil return cycle timing will
resume when the error code has been cleared.
