Engineer needed?Yes

The manual does not say whether the heat pump stops.

What you can check

  • Note the exact code shown on the controller (a photo helps) and report it to your installer or the manufacturer's service line.
  • Check the heat pump's supply breaker/isolator at the consumer unit is on (do not open any casing).
  • Check the outdoor unit is not blocked by debris/snow and has its required clearances.

What the engineer will check

  • Add some refrigerant.
  • Replace the capillary or EEV.
  • Reconnect the switch.
  • Replace the pressure switch.
  • Replace the PCB.
