AJ-03Too long DHW heat-up time required
Name in the manufacturer's documentation (service manual): Too long DHW heat-up time required
[1]
In plain words (editorial)
Heating the hot water tank takes too long – the manual says one of the tank temperature sensors is broken, so hot water does not reach the desired temperature. The error resets automatically once the tank heats up normally.
When to call a service technician: Contact your installer or Daikin dealer.
