Outdoor Unit Recall: 7-time blink - Fin or P.C. board over-temperature

What does 7-time blink (recall mode) mean?

When the outdoor unit failure mode recall function is active, the indoor unit's upper lamp blinks seven times, then stays OFF for 2.5 seconds. This indicates an over-temperature condition on either the fin temperature thermistor or the P.C. board temperature thermistor of the inverter P.C. board.

• Restricted airflow around the outdoor unit
