6 Communication malfunction E6 Off 3s and blink 6 times Off During cooling and drying operation, compressor and outdoor fan stop while indoor fan operates. During heating, all loads stop. Please refer to malfunction analysis below.
7 High temperature resistant protection E8 Off 3s and blink 8 times Off 3s and blink 6 times During cooling and drying operation, compressor and outdoor fan stop while indoor fan operates. During heating, all loads stop. Please refer to malfunction analysis below.
8 EEPROM malfunction EE Off 3s and blink 15 times Off 3s and blink 11 times During cooling and drying operation, compressor and outdoor fan stop while indoor fan operates. During heating, all loads stop. Replace outdoor control panel AP1
9 Limit/decrease frequency due to high temperature of module EU Off 3s and blink 6 times Off 3s and blink 6 times All loads operate normally, while operation frequency for compressor is decreased. Discharging after the complete unit is de-energized for 20mins, check whether the thermal grease on IPM module of outdoor control panel AP1 is sufficient and whether the radiator is inserted tightly. If it is no use, please replace control panel AP1.
10 Malfunction protection of jumper cap C5 Off 3s and blink 15 times Indoor unit does not respond to the wireless remote commands.
  • No jumper cap inserted to main board;
  • Jumper cap is inserted incorrectly;
  • Jumper cap is damaged;
  • Abnormal detecting circuit of main board;
11 Gathering refrigerant F0 Off 3s and blink once Off 3s and blink once When the outdoor unit receives the F0 signal, the system will be forced to run under cooling mode for gathering refrigerant. Nominal cooling mode
