How to operate with fixed operational frequency of the compressor.

1. Press the EMERGENCY OPERATION switch on the front of the indoor unit, and select either EMERGENCY COOL mode or EMERGENCY HEAT mode before starting to operate the air conditioner.

2. The compressor starts with operational frequency.

3. The fan speed of the indoor unit is High.

4. This operation continues for 30 minutes.

5. In order to release this operation, press the EMERGENCY OPERATION switch twice or once, or press any button on the remote controller.

PRE-HEAT CONTROL

When moisture gets into the refrigerant cycle, it may interfere the start-up of the compressor at low outside temperature. The pre-heat control prevents this interference. The pre-heat control turns ON when outside temperature is 68°F (20

°C) or below. When pre-heat control is turned ON, compressor is energized. (About 50 W)

<JK> To activate the pre-heat control, cut the JK wire of the inverter P.C. board (Refer to 10-6.1.).

NOTE: When the inverter P.C. board is replaced, check the Jumper wires, and cut/solder them if necessary.

10 TROUBLESHOOTING

MUZ-FE09NA MUZ-FE12NA MUZ-FE18NA

10-1. CAUTIONS ON TROUBLESHOOTING

1. Before troubleshooting, check the following

1) Check the power supply voltage.

2) Check the indoor/outdoor connecting wire for miswiring.

2. Take care of the following during servicing

1) Before servicing the air conditioner, be sure to turn OFF the main unit first with the remote controller, then after confirming the horizontal vane is closed, turn off the breaker and/or disconnect the power plug.

2) Be sure to turn OFF the power supply before removing the front panel, the cabinet, the top panel, and the electronic control P.C. board.

3) When removing the electrical parts, be careful of the residual voltage of smoothing capacitor.

4) When removing the electronic control P.C. board, hold the edge of the board with care NOT to apply stress on the components.

5) When connecting or disconnecting the connectors, hold the housing of the connector. DO NOT pull the lead wires.

<Incorrect>

<Correct>

Lead wiring Housing point

3. Troubleshooting procedure

1) First, check if the OPERATION INDICATOR lamp on the indoor unit is flashing on and off to indicate an abnormality.

To make sure, check how many times the abnormality indication is flashing on and off before starting service work.

2) Before servicing, check that the connector and terminal are connected properly.

3) When the electronic control P.C. board seems to be defective, check the copper foil pattern for disconnection and the components for bursting and discoloration.

4) Refer to 10-2 and 10-3.

The outdoor unit is abnormal.

No

No

(OFF)

Yes

The indoor unit is abnormal.

Check the blinking pattern, and confi rm the abnormal point with the indoor unit failure mode table. (Refer to indoor unit service manual.)

Make sure to check at least two consecutive blinking cycles. 2

Releasing the failure mode recall function

Release the failure mode recall function by the following procedures.

Turn OFF the power supply and turn it ON again.

Press RESET button of the remote controller.

Indoor unit is normal.

But the outdoor unit might be abnormal because there are some abnormalities that can not be recalled with this way.

Confi rm if outdoor unit is abnormal according to the detailed outdoor unit failure mode recall function. (Refer to 10-2.2)

1. Regardless of normal or abnormal condition, a short beep is emitted once the signal is received.

The outdoor unit is abnormal.

Check the blinking pattern, and confi rm the abnormal point with the outdoor unit failure mode table. (Refer to 10-2.3)

Make sure to check at least two consecutive blinking cycles. 3

Repair the defective parts.

Deleting the memorized abnormal condition

After repairing the unit, recall the failure mode again according to "Setting up the failure mode recall function" mentioned above.

Press OPERATE/STOP (ON/OFF) button of the remote controller (the set temperature is displayed) with the remote controller headed towards the indoor unit.

Press EMERGENCY OPERATION switch so that the memorized abnormal condition is deleted.

Release the failure mode recall function according to "Releasing the failure mode recall function" mentioned above.

NOTE: 1. Make sure to release the failure mode recall function once it is set up, otherwise the unit cannot operate properly.

2. If the abnormal condition is not deleted from the memory, the last abnormal condition is kept memorized.
