2. The S code (--1 or --3) is displayed on the digital temperature indicator by pressing the status key
(STATUS) when the status monitor lamp (STATUS) is lit.

Note:
• The S code displayed on the digital temperature indicator is changed every few seconds if two status
shown in the above table are detected at the same time. （--1 ⇒ --3 ⇒ --1 repeated）
• The monitoring function does not trigger a buzzer or conduct a safety operation.
• In the case of multiple indication of S code, follow the remedy for each status.
• The status monitor lamp (STATUS) may be lit under normal running condition when the optional small
inner door (MDF-7ID) is installed because of less cooling performance. In this case, adjust the air
conditioning so that the ambient temperature is around 23
than the current setting.
