10. Defrost control
1) In heating operation, defrost operation is performed when TE sensor satisfies any condition in A zone to
D zone.
2) During defrosting operation, it finishes if TE sensor continued 12°C or higher for 3 seconds or continued
7°C ≤ TE < 12°C for 1 minute.
The defrost operation also finishes when it continued for 10 minutes even if TE sensor temperature was
7°C or lower.
3) After defrost operation was reset, the compressor stopped for approx. 40 seconds and then the heating
operation starts.
∗ The minimum TE value and To value between 10 and 15 minutes after heating operation has started
are stored in memory as TE0 and To0, respectively.
4) The time of above d can be changed by
exchanging jumper [J805] and [J806] of the
outdoor control P.C. board.
