Safe checks before service
- Check that the external drain hose is not kinked, crushed, or inserted improperly.
- If your exact owner manual allows it, clean the accessible pump filter after cooling and securing power and water.
- Request service for persistent failure, water leaking near electrical parts, or suspected internal pump work.
Do only user-facing checks allowed by your owner manual. Do not bypass locks, open electrical compartments, work on gas lines, or cut into the refrigerant system.
When to stop checking
If the code remains after safe external checks, contact the manufacturer or a qualified technician. If a hazard is present, stop use first. Keep the displayed code and context available for support.
