What it means
Panasonic lists F 94 as compressor discharge pressure overshoot protection. This is a compressor pressure-protection fault.
Urgency
Likely causes

- 4-way valve, expansion valve, or refrigerant circuit is not moving correctly
- Pressure sensor or outdoor control board fault
Homeowner fix
Turn the system off. Make sure the outdoor unit is not blocked by loose debris, snow, or stored items, but do not open the cabinet or touch refrigerant parts.
