Quattro inverter fan running constantly

Quattro 10000 fan constantly on, temperature in room around 8 centigrade. Shouldn't it be only coming on if it gets hot?

No it doesn't shut off. And now the inverter has completely stopped working even though the ambient temperature is 6 centigrade. What is the problem?

İt's impossible for the inverter to be hot. The ambient temperature is now 5 c and the inverter has been off for a few hours. When I switch it on it refuses to invert and the temperature light flashes.

If it won't ruin your warranty, something may have come loose inside the unit during transport.

May be worth popping the cover and checking.

Else just better to return to the supplier for a replacement.

Sounds like a fault in the unit. Please contact your dealer.

I left it off all night and switched it back on in the morning and it's working now. But the fan comes on again for no good reason.

Another idea. Are there any airflow obstructions or is the unit dirty inside?

I have seen instances where there is a lot of dust or dirt on the heatsinks inside and the fan has much less effect than it should. This would also cause the fan to come on sooner than expected.

I don't think so as the air is blowing freely out of the top and the air is freezing cold. I'm wondering if it's a faulty temperature reading inside the unit.
