blocked?

| Eliminate obstacles.
Under heating mode, indoor temperature is reached to set temp-

erature?

| After reaching to set temperature, indoor unit will stop blowing

out air.

Heating mode is turned on just now?

| In order to prevent blowing out cold air, indoor unit will be started after delaying for several minutes, which is a normal phenomenon.

Air conditioner can’t operate

| Power failure?| Wait until power recovery.
Is plug loose?| Reinsert the plug.
Air switch trips off or fuse is burnt out?| Ask professional to replace air switch or fuse.

  • Any presence of air or other foreign substance in the refrigerant circuit will cause system pre-ssure rise or compressor rupture, resulting in injury.
  • When in stalling or moving this unit, do not charge the refrigerant which is not comply with that on the nameplate or unqualified refrigerant.
  • Otherwise, it may cause abnormal operation, wrong action, mechanical malfunction or even serious safety accident.
  • When refrigerant needs to be recovered during relocating or repairing the unit, be

WARNING

sure that the unit is running in cooling mode. Then, fully close the valve at high pressure side (liquid valve). About 30-40 seconds later, fully close the valve at low pressure side (gas valve), immediately stop the unit and disconnect power. Please note that the time for refrigerant recovery should not exceed 1 minute.
If refrigerant recovery takes too much time, air may be sucked in and cause pressure rise or compressor rupture, resulting in injury.

  • During refrigerant recovery, make sure that liquid valve and gas valve are fully closed and power is disconnected before detachi-ng the connection pipe.
  • If compressor starts running when stop valve is open and connection pipe is not yet conn-ected, air will be sucked in and cause pressure rise or compressor rupture, resulting in injury.
  • When installing the unit, make sure that co-nnection pipe is securely connected before the compressor starts running.
  • If compressor starts running when stop valve is open and connection pipe is not yet conne-cted, air will be sucked in and cause pressure rise or compressor rupture, resulting in injury.
  • Prohibit installing the unit at the place where there may be leaked corrosive gas or flamm-able gas.
  • If there is leaked gas around the unit, it may cause explosion a nd other accidents.
  • Do not use extension cords for electrical co-nnections. If the electric wire is not long eno-ugh, please contact a local service center au-thorized and ask for a proper electric wire. Poor connections may lead to electric shock or fire.
  • Use the specified types of wires for electrical connections between the indoor and outdoor units. Firmly clamp the wires so that their te-rminals receive no external stresses. Electric wires with insufficient capacity, wrong wire connections and insecure wire terminals may cause electric shock or fire.

    NOTE

    • The wall panel is for illustrative purposes only, please refer to the actual installation.
    • Please refer to the actual circumstances for the number of screws and the position of screws.
  2. When installation is finished, pull the mounting plate with hand to confirm whether it is fixed tightly. The force distribution for all screws should be uniform.

  3. Open a piping hole with the diameter of Φ55 or Φ70 on the selected outlet pipe position. In order to drain smoothly, slant the piping hole on the wall slightly downward to the outdoor side with the gradient of 5-10°.

NOTE
Pay attention to dust prevention and take rele vant safety mea-sures when opening the hole.

Step 4:

Outlet pipe

  5. Close the panel.

Step 8:

Bind up pipe

  1. Bind up the connection pipe, power cord and drain hose with the band.
  2. Reserve a certain length of drain hose and power cord for installation when binding th-em. When binding to a certain degree, sep- arate the indoor power and then separate the drain hose.
  3. Bind them evenly.
  4. The liquid pipe and gas pipe should be bo-und separately at the end.

NOTICE

  • The power cord and control wire can’t be crossed or winding.
  • The drain hose should be bound at the bottom.

Step 9:

Hang the indoor unit

  1. Put the bound pipes in the wall pipe and then make them pass through the wall hole.
  2. Hang the indoor unit on the wall-mounting frame.
  3. Stuff the gap between pipes and wall hole with sealing gum.
  4. Fix the wall pipe.
  5. Check if the indoor unit is installed firmly and closed to the wall.BLUERIDGE-BMKH09M-LM-Split-Air-Conditioner-fig- \(56\)

NOTICE

Test and operation

Check after installation

●  Check according to the following requirement after finishing installation.

Items to be checked| Possible malfunction
Has the unit been installed firmly?| The unit may drop, shake or emit noise.
Have you done the refri- gerant leakage test?| It may cause insufficient cooling(heating) capacity.
Is heat insulation of pipe- line sufficient?| It may cause condensation and water dripping.
Is water drained well?| It may cause condensation and water dripping.
Is the voltage of power supply according to the voltage marked on the nameplate?| It may cause malfunction or damage the parts.
Is electric wiring and pip- eline installed correctly?| It may cause malfunction or damage the parts.
Is the unit grounded securely?| It may cause electric leakage.
Does the power cord fol- low the specification?| It may cause malfunction or damage the parts.
Is there any obstruction in the air inlet and outlet?| It may cause insufficient cooling(heating) capacity.
The dust and sundries caused during installation are removed?| It may cause malfunction or damage the parts.
The gas valve and liquid valve of connection pipe are open completely?| It may cause insufficient cooling (heating) capacity.
Is the inlet and outlet of piping hole been covered?| It may cause insufficient cooling (heating) capacity or waste electricity.

Test operation

  1. Preparation of test operation
    • The client approves the air conditioner.
    • Specify the important notes for air conditioner to the client.
  2. Method of test operation
    • Put through the power, press ON/OFF button on the remote controller to start operation.
    • Press MODE button to select AUTO, COOL, DRY, FAN and HEAT to check whether the operation is normal or not.
    • If the ambient temperature is lower than 16°C(61°F), the air conditioner can’t start cooling.

Configuration of connection pipe

  1. Standard length of connection pipe: 5m, 7.5m, 8m.

  2. Min. length of connection pipe is 3m.

  3. Max. length of connection pipe is shown as below.
    Max. length of connection pipe

  4. The additional refrigerant oil and refrigerant charg- ing required after prolonging connection pipe.

    • After the length of connection pipe is prolonged for 10m at the basis of standard length, you should add 5ml of refrigerant oil for each additional 5m of connection pipe.
    • The calculation method of additional refrigerant charging amount(on the basis of liquid pipe): Additional refrigerant charging amount = prolonged length of liquid pipe × additional refrigerant charging amount per meter
    • Basing on the length of standard pipe, add re- frigerant according to the requirement as shown in the table. The additional refrigerant charging amount per meter is different according to the diameter of liquid pipe. See the following sheet.

Additional refrigerant charging amount for R22, R407C, R410A and R134a
