Installation of indoor unit refers to the indoor unit installation manual.

Outdoor Unit Installation

1. Install Condensate Drain for Outdoor Unit
   The condensate drains from the outdoor unit when the unit operates in heating mode. In order not to disturb your neighbor and protect the environment, install a drain port and a drain hose to direct the condensate water. Just install the drain port and rubber washer to the chassis of the outdoor unit, then connect a drain hose to the port as the right figure demonstrates.

2. Install Ground Pad or Wall Hangers
   1.Determine proper location for outdoor unit.
   2.Follow all instructions provided by manufacturer for installing wall hangers rubber pad.
   3.Verify the wall hangers or rubber pad can safely support the weight of the outdoor unit.
   4.Verify the wall hangers or rubber pad is level and meets all outdoor dimensional clearance.
   5.Fix with bolts and nuts tightly on a flat and strong floor. If installed on the wall or roof, make sure to fix the supporter well to prevent it from shaking due to serious vibration or strong wind.

WARNING
Florida wind load requirements state that outdoor unit must be anchored to concrete pad using four 3/8-in diameter power wedge bolt plus(or equivalent) with 1-in diameter fender washers. Anchor bolts must be embedded Into 3000 PSI minimum concrete at a distance of 4 1/2- in from any concrete edge. The concrete thickness must exceed 1.5 times the anchor depth.
3. Piping Connections to Outdoor Unit

• Remove service valve cover( if provided) to access the service valves and refrigerant ports.
• Carefully bend and adjust length of refrigerant pipes to meet outdoor unit service valves connection with proper tools to avoid kinks.
• Apply a small amount of refrigerant oil to the flare connection on the refrigerant pipe.
• Properly align piping and tighten flare nut using a standard wrench and a torque wrench as shown in the indoor piping section.
• Carefully tighten flare nuts to correct torque level referring to the following Torque Table:

Torque Table

Note: Over tightening may damage flare connections and cause leaks.

Power and Wiring
Connecting of the Cable

• Outdoor Unit

1. Remove the cable cross board from the unit by loosening the screw. Connect the wires to the terminals on the control board individually as follows.
2. Secure the power cord onto the control board with cable clamp.
3. Reinstall the cable cross board to the original position with the screw.
4. Use a recognized circuit breaker between the power source and the unit. A disconnecting device to adequately disconnect all supply lines must be fitted.

The figures in this manual are based on the external view of a standard model. Consequently, the shape may differ from that of the air conditioner you have selected.
Caution:

1. Never fail to have an individual power circuit specifically for the air conditioner. As for the method of wiring, refer to the circuit diagram posted on the inside of the access door .
2. Confirm that the cable thickness is as specified in the power source specification.
3. Check the wires and make sure that they are all tightly fastened after cable connection. 4. Be sure to install an earth leakage circuit breaker in wet or moist areas.

Cable Specifications

Attention:
The plug must be accessible even after the installation of the appliance in case there is a need to disconnect it. If not possible, connect appliance to a double-pole switching device with contact separation of at least 3 mm placed in an accessible position even after installation.

Installation Instructions

Wiring diagram
Make sure that the color of the wires in the outdoor unit and terminal No. are the same as those of the indoor unit.
Warning: Before obtaining access to terminals, all supply circuits must be disconnected.
(1) 208/230V

(2) 115V

The diagram is reference only, and the actual terminal shall prevail.

Vacuum Testing and Charging
The air which contains moisture remaining in the refrigeration cycle may cause a malfunction on the compressor. After connecting the indoor and outdoor units, release air and moisture from the refrigerant cycle using a vacuum pump, as shown below.
Note: To protect the environment, be sure not to discharge the refrigerant to the air directly.
See next page for air purging steps.

How to Vacuum Air Tubes:

1. Unscrew and remove caps from 2 and 3-way valves.
2. Unscrew and remove cap from service valve.
3. Connect vacuum pump flexible hose to the service valve.
4. Start vacuum pump for 10-15 minutes until reaching a vacuum of 10 mm Hg absolutes.
5. With vacuum pump still running close the low pressure knob on vacuum pump manifold. Then stop the vacuum pump.
6. Open 2-way valve ,1/4 turn, then close it after 10 seconds. Check tightness of all joints using liquid soap or an electronic leak detector.
7. Turn 2 and 3-way valves stem to fully open the valves. Disconnect the flexible vacuum pump hose.
8. Replace and tighten all valve caps.
