What happens, in order

  1. Room temperature is above the set temperature, so the compressor and outdoor fan run and the indoor fan is held on low speed
  2. Between set temperature minus 2C and set temperature, the compressor stays in its previous state
  3. Below set temperature minus 2C, the compressor stops, the outdoor fan stops after 30 s and the indoor fan stays on low
  4. Protections are the same as in cooling
