Possible Causes

Room temperature below or above design limits, faulty ambient temperature sensor, sensor not positioned correctly in airflow

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Steps:

  • Check room conditions: Verify the room temperature is within the operating range specified in the manual (commonly 5–35°C). Move the unit if necessary.
  • Inspect ambient sensor: Unplug the unit, remove the front grille, and locate the ambient sensor near the air inlet. Ensure it is not touching hot components or trapped behind insulation.
  • Reseat and test: Reseat the sensor connector on the PCB. If F2 persists in a normal-temperature room, test and replace the ambient temperature sensor (NTC) as needed.
