OB280-1.qxp 02.12.19 11:15 AM 12 Page 19 TROUBLESHOOTING 12-1. Cautions on troubleshooting 1. Before troubleshooting, check the following: 1) Check the power supply voltage. 2) Check the indoor/outdoor connecting wire for mis-wiring. 2. Take care the following during servicing. 1) Before servicing the air conditioner, be sure to first turn off the remote controller to stop the unit, and then after confirming the horizontal vane is closed, turn off the breaker and / or disconnect the power plug.

Turn on power supply to the indoor and outdoor unit, three minutes later EMERGENCY OPERATION (HEAT operation) starts.
OB280-1.qxp 02.12.19 11:16 AM Page 24 • When cooling, heat exchanger of non-operating indoor unit frosts. • When heating, non-operating indoor unit get warm. D Check of LEV LED display: Start LED1 Lighting 6 time LED2 Lighting Goes out Turn on power supply to the outdoor unit after checking LEV coil is mounted to the LEV body securely.
OB280-1.qxp 02.12.19 11:16 AM Page 25 • When thermistor is abnormal. (When the LED display is a table below.) F Check of outdoor unit thermistor Start Disconnect the connector in the outdoor electronic control P. C. board (see below table), and measure the resistance of thermistor to check whether the thermistor is normal or not. Abnormal Replace the thermistor Normal Reconnect the connector (CN661, CN663 and CN664) and disconnect the lead wire leading to the compressor.

(difference modes) • When you try to run two indoor unit simultaneously, one for cooling and the other for heating, the unit which transmits signal to the outdoor units earlier decides the operation mode. The other unit indicates as shown in the figure below. • When the above situation occurs, set all the indoor units to the same mode, turn OFF the indoor units, and then turn them back ON.
