Turn the fan by hand and check if the blades turn smoothly. If
there is a problem, replace the fan or send the unit in for repair.

● Air does not become hot CHECK: Is the heating element broken?
when WARM/COOL switch is Measure the resistance value of the heating element as described
on page 5.
set to WARM after power ON.
CHECK: Is the sensor broken?
Measure the resistance value of the sensor as described on page
5.
CHECK: Is the printed wiring board broken?
Check the printed wiring board visually for burned parts. If there
are parts with burn damage, replace the wiring board or send
the unit in for repair.

 RESISTANCE MEASUREMENT FOR INVESTIGAT-
ING BROKEN HEATING ELEMENT AND SENSOR

Heating element connector

Sensor connector

CAUTION:
Measure the heating element and sensor at room temperature.

● Heating element resistance Remove the heating element connector and measure
measurement the resistance. Heating element resistance value:
25-30 Ω (100-120 V)
100-110 Ω (220-240 V)
If the resistance value is incorrect, replace the heating
element. (See the instructions included with the
replacement heating element regarding how to
replace the heating element.)

● Sensor resistance Remove the sensor connector and measure the

measurement resistance.
Sensor resistance value: 200-250 kΩ
If the resistance value is incorrect, replace the sensor.
(See the instructions included with the replacement
sensor regarding how to replace the sensor.)

MAINTENANCE
Wipe any flux deposits from the outlet and guard
plate.
