What it means

The manual says: Low evaporating temperature.

Part involved: refrigerant circuit / pressure protection.

Is it safe?

Does the heat pump stop?Not stated
Engineer needed?Yes

The manual does not say whether the heat pump stops.

Resetting itself: unknown.

What you can check

  • Read the full error code and sub-code shown on the user interface (Malfunctioning screen; press the help button for Daikin's long description) and note it, with the date/time, for your installer.
  • Look at the outdoor unit from outside: check the air inlet/outlet and fan grille are not blocked by leaves, debris, snow or heavy ice build-up (do not remove panels or touch the fan).
  • Do NOT bleed radiators while an error/malfunction symbol is displayed: Daikin operation manuals warn refrigerant may have leaked into the water circuit - ventilate and call your installer.

What the engineer will check

  • See Daikin service manual for this generation (not public).

Who to ask for: F-gas certified heat pump engineer (Daikin-trained installer / Stand By Me partner).

Certification: UK F-gas certification (Category I) for refrigerant circuit work; R-290 (Altherma 4) also needs flammable-refrigerant/hydrocarbon competence.
