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.
  • Check your home router/Wi-Fi is switched on and working and has not been replaced or moved (router changes break the adapter/app link).
  • Daikin documents this code as resetting automatically once the condition clears; if it keeps coming back, contact your installer.
  • 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.
