TROUBLE SHOOTING CONTINUED
PROBLEM: Unit is in dehumidifier mode and will not manually change to any
other mode.
CAUSE:
(This condition can occur when the ambient temperature is below 10°C or is
above 35°C).
When the ambient temperature is below 10°C a protection device in your
dehumidifier will operate. This engages the electronic defrost program.
The unit will now only operate in dehumidifier mode with the fan speed at
high level. The compressor will operate intermittently by switching on for 40
minutes and switching off for 10 minutes. The mode cannot be changed until
the ambient temperature rises above 10°C. This program will also come into
operation when the temperature rises above 35°C, in order to prevent the
compressor from overheating.
