11 TroubleshootingInstaller reference guide22RZAG35~60A2V1BR32 split series4P540076-1A – 2018.11▪ Heat exchangerThe heat exchanger of the outdoor unit can get blocked up due todust, dirt, leaves, etc. It is recommended to clean the heatexchanger yearly. A blocked heat exchanger can lead to too lowpressure or too high pressure leading to worse performance.11 Troubleshooting11.1 Overview: TroubleshootingThis chapter describes what you have to do in case of problems.It contains information about solving problems based on symptoms.Before troubleshootingCarry out a thorough visual inspection of the unit and look forobvious defects such as loose connections or defective wiring.11.2 Precautions when troubleshootingWARNING▪ When carrying out an inspection on the switch box ofthe unit, ALWAYS make sure that the unit isdisconnected from the mains. Turn off the respectivecircuit breaker.▪ When a safety device was activated, stop the unit andfind out why the safety device was activated beforeresetting it. NEVER shunt safety devices or changetheir values to a value other than the factory defaultsetting. If you are unable to find the cause of theproblem, call your dealer.DANGER: RISK OF ELECTROCUTIONWARNINGPrevent hazards due to inadvertent resetting of the thermalcut-out: power to this appliance MUST NOT be suppliedthrough an external switching device, such as a timer, orconnected to a circuit that is regularly turned ON and OFFby the utility.DANGER: RISK OF BURNING11.3 Solving problems based onsymptoms11.3.1 Symptom: Indoor units fall, vibrate ormake noisePossible causes Corrective actionThe indoor units are not installedsecurelyInstall the indoor units securely.11.3.2 Symptom: The unit is NOT heating orcooling as expectedPossible causes Corrective actionWrong connection of theelectrical wiresConnect the electrical wirescorrectly.Gas leakage Check for gas leakage.11.3.3 Symptom: Water leakagePossible causes Corrective actionIncomplete thermal insulation(gas and liquid piping, indoorportions of the drain hoseextension)Make sure the thermal insulationof the piping and the drain hoseis complete.Improperly connected drainage Secure the drainage.11.3.4 Symptom: Electrical leakagePossible causes Corrective actionThe unit is NOT earthed correctly Check and correct theconnection of the earth wiring.11.3.5 Symptom: Unit does NOT function or burndamagePossible causes Corrective actionThe wiring was NOT performedin accordance with thespecificationsCorrect the wiring.11.3.6 Symptom: Indoor unit is running only withfixed fan speed, not possible to changefan speedPossible causes Corrective actionIndoor unit has fixed fan speed incooling mode when outdoorambient temperature dropsbelow -10°C.It is normal behaviour. All fanspeeds will become availablewhen outdoor ambienttemperature rises again.11.3.7 Symptom: Unit goes to defrost operationeven when the heat exchanger is notfrozenPossible causes Corrective actionIt is normal behaviour related toreliability of the system.In case the piping length is<30 m and the level differencebetween the indoor and theoutdoor unit is <20 m, you canturn off this function by cuttingthe jumper J6 on the outdoor unitPCB. The main power supplyMUST be turned off when cuttingthe jumper.11.4 Fault diagnosis using LED onoutdoor unit PCBLED is… Diagnosisflashing Normal.▪ Check the indoor unit.ON ▪ Turn the power OFF and back ON, andcheck the LED within approximately 3minutes.If the LED is ON again, the outdoor unitPCB is faulty.
