this example the LED will blink RED four times.
The second digit is the type of error.
This digit is determined by counting
how many times the LED over the

will be illuminated while the first error code is being communicated.
The GREEN LED light for
Cooling
will be illuminated while the second error code is being communicated.
The GREEN LED light for
Drying
will be illuminated while the third error code is being communicated.
