This does not seem to be related to Daikin but more to the general implementation of component.climate.

And so? I’ve updated to the latest 0.82 but the problem still persist.

I have the same error with evohome climate component, I see that the climate have state manual, and alexa doesn't support this thermostat mode, if I set the climate device to auto, it works with alexa. https://developer.amazon.com/docs/device-apis/alexa-property-schemas.html#thermostat-mode See this discussion: https://community.home-assistant.io/t/refactored-honeywell-evohome-custom-component-eu-only/59733/233
