Operating Temperature Range For Outdoor Unit Start
When ambient temperature is out of range, the system will not start and generates error
E440 – Prevention of heat operation
E441 – Prevention of cool operation
System checks ambient temperature condition only on outdoor unit (compressor) start up
The DVM S outdoor units will operate when ambient temperatures are exceeded however capacity and
efficiency will decrease accordingly

Compressor Oil Recovery Operation
Oil recovery operation starts after a cumulative compressor run time of 7 hours
The oil recovery interval will shorten if the outdoor unit or compressor stops
If defrost mode is in operation for more than 3 minutes, it counts as oil recovery operation as well
In a modular system (manifolded ODU’s) on completion of oil recovery operation the master ODU will change
