What it means

advisory
Try one safe restart only. If the code returns, leave the system off and schedule authorized service.
Likely causes

Homeowner fix

Most Panasonic diagnostic codes are repairable once the exact sensor, wiring, board, airflow, or refrigerant-circuit issue is confirmed. Compare repair with replacement only on older out-of-warranty systems that need major boards, compressor, or sealed-system work.
