Hi Pengwang, ARTS hasn't been tested extensively with HITRAN 2016 and thus we don't officially support it yet. However, in general it works. You can work around the error you're seeing by renaming your catalog file and prepend HITRAN2012_ to the filename. In your case for example rename it to HITRAN2012_5a4fe828.par and ARTS will read it.
When using HITRAN 2016 make sure you're using the latest version from the Subversion repository.
