Self-Diagnosis Procedure

How to Read the Self-Diagnosis Code
After the display panel flashes three times at 0.5-second intervals, the corresponding fault code flashes on the set temperature display at 0.5-second intervals and a two-digit number is shown. The codes are indicated in numeric format.
Trouble Code Display
Continuous operation: one DTC

Continuous operation: more than two DTCs.

STEP Operation
A. Normal or one fault code matches continuous operation.
B. More than two DTCs.

If trouble codes are displayed during inspection, check the possible causes of the malfunction by referring to the trouble codes.
