Gree air conditioner manufacturers often include error codes in their manuals for user reference. Gree inverter air conditioners, portable air conditioners, and mini split air conditioners typically present error codes to indicate a problem with the indoor and outdoor units. Understanding the meaning of the error code displayed on the LED screen of the air conditioner will help in the troubleshooting process.
Refer to your owner’s manual for a full error code list for your air conditioner model, or check our full Gree air conditioner error code list below.
