4. Troubleshooting

Wired remote controllers
In any of the following cases, turn off the main power switch and contact your local dealer for service:
•“CHECK” followed by “P1”, “P2”, “P3”, “P4”, “P5”, “P7” or “CENTRALLY CONTROLLED” is displayed on the control panel.
• The switches do not work properly.
• The circuit breaker trips frequently (or the fuse blows frequently).
• Water has accidentally been splashed into the unit.
• Water leaks from the unit.
• Something is accidentally dropped into the air-conditioner.
• An unusual noise is heard during operation.
Warning:
If the air conditioner operates but does not cool or heat (depending on model) the room, consult your dealer since there may be a refrigerant leak.
Be sure to ask the service representative whether there is refrigerant leakage or not when repairs are carried out.
The refrigerant charged in the air conditioner is safe. Refrigerant normally does not leak, however, if refrigerant gas leaks indoors, and comes into contact with the
fire of a fan heater, space heater, stove, etc., harmful substances will be generated.
