Possible Causes

Room temperature below minimum operating spec, Faulty ambient temperature sensor reading too low, Unit placed near cold draft or window

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Steps:

  • Check room temperature: Use a separate thermometer. If the room is below about 41–50°F (5–10°C), move the unit to a warmer location.
  • Avoid cold drafts: Do not place the unit directly in front of open windows, exterior doors, or unheated basements where cold air can hit the sensor.
  • Sensor check: If the room is warm but LO still shows, inspect the ambient temperature sensor and wiring as described for E1. Replace if defective.
