Four-way valve 1 (4WV1) operates for "Cooling/heating selection" type only.
1. 4-way valve delayed switching
When the outdoor operation mode is Stop, 4-way valve 1 maintains its state and turns off 2 minutes 35 seconds later.
However, when the outdoor unit operation mode is switched from " Heating " to " Cooling ", this function
does not operate and the 4-way valve turns off at that point.
When the compressor satisfies the OFF ON condition when the operation mode is "Heating" (including immediately
after the power is turned on), 4-way valve 1 turns off for 5 seconds. Thereafter, 4-way valve 1 turns on and 3 seconds
later, the compressor starts.
However, except in the following cases:
Defrosting, defrosting end
Oil recovery in progress, oil recovery end
