Danby error codes
Danby portable air conditioners (DPA models) show P1 or Ft for a full water tray and E codes such as E1, E2 and E4 for sensor and display faults. Danby window units (DAC models) show AS or ES for a sensor error and LO or HI when the room temperature is out of range. Most codes clear by draining the unit or unplugging it for a few minutes.
