(b) Self-diagnosis by check code on the remote controller
In the wireless type models, the self-diagnosis for the protective circuit operation is performed by handling
the remote controller. First change the operation mode of the remote controller, and then perform the self-
diagnosis by the displayed contents of the remote controller and the existence of operation lamp flashing
(5Hz) and buzzer sound (Pi, Pi, Pi). During self-diagnosis operation, the timer lamp usually flashes (5Hz).

2) Selection of normal mode
Push the reset button at lower side of the wireless remote controller with a tip of pencil, etc. In this
time, check that [“AM”] display on the time display part flashes.
Cautions in service
