and manual.
The appliance shall be stored so as to prevent mechanical damage from
occurring.
Keep plastic bag (packaging material) away from small children, it may cling
to nose and mouth and prevent breathing.
The appliance must be installed by technician, who takes into account the
requirements given by ISO 5149 or eventual equivalent requirements.
As to installation, request the distributor or vendor to perform it.
Imperfection in installation caused by that having been carried out by the
customer himself may lead to water leakage, electric shock, fire, etc.
Carry out the installation work with reliability according to this manual for
installation work. Imperfection in installation leads to water leakage,
electric shock, fire, etc.
Carry out the installation work with reliability on the place that can bear
the weight of this unit sufficiently. Insufficient strength leads to injury
due to falling of the unit.
Carry out predetermined installation work in preparation for strong wind such
as typhoon, earthquake. Imperfection in installation work may lead to
accidents arising from overturn, etc.
If installing inside a small room, measures should be taken to prevent
refrigerant levels from building up to critical concentrations in the event of
a refrigerant leak occurring. Please discuss with the place of purchase for
advice on what measures may be necessary to prevent critical concentrations
being exceeded. If the refrigerant leaks and reaches critical concentration
levels, there is the danger that death from suffocation may result. Be careful
when picking up and moving the indoor and outdoor units. Get a partner to
help, and bend your knees when lifting to reduce strain on your back. Sharp
edges or thin aluminum fins on the air conditioner can cut your fingers.
During pump-down operation must stop the compressor before disconnecting the
piping installation. (Disconnecting the refrigerant piping, while the
compressor is operating with the 3-way valve opened, leads to air intake and
an abnormal high pressure in the refrigerant cycle which can cause an
explosion and / or injury.)
During installation, ensure that the refrigerant piping is installed before
operating the compressor. (Do not install the refrigerant piping while the
compressor is operating with the 3-way valve opened, as this leads to air
intake and an abnormal high pressure in the refrigerant cycle which may cause
an explosion and / or injury.)
If refrigerant gas escaped during installation, ventilate the affected area.
If the refrigerant gas comes into contact with sparks or naked flames, it will
cause toxic gases to be generated.
The unit must be installed in accordance with applicable national and local
regulations. Any electrical work should only be carried out by qualified
technician and use exclusive circuits without fail. Presence of insufficient
capacity in power circuit or imperfection in execution leads to electric
shock, fire, etc.
Wiring shall be connected securely using specified cables and fix them
securely so that external force of the cables may not transfer to the terminal
connection section. Imperfect connection and fixing leads to fire, etc.
Securely attach the protective covers for the outdoor unit connection cables
and power cord so that they do not lift up after installation. If the covers
are not properly attached and installed, the terminal connections may overheat
and fire or electric shock may result.
Switch off all supplies before accessing any electrical part.
Improper fixing of screw may cause leakage current and electrical shock.
Earth This equipment must be properly earthed. Earth line must not be
connected to gas pipe, water pipe, lightning rod and telephone. Otherwise, it
may cause electrical shock in case the equipment breakdown or has leakage
current.
Provide a power outlet exclusively for each unit, and full disconnection means
having a contact separation in all poles must be incorporated in the fixed
wiring in accordance with the wiring rules.
Installation of Earth Leakage Current Breaker This equipment must be installed
with earth leakage current breaker. Otherwise, it may cause electrical shock
and fire in case the equipment breakdown or has leakage current.
Cables connected to outdoor unit must be approved polychloroprene sheathed
type 60245 IEC 57 or H05RN-F/H07RN-F or heavier.
The units must be connected to the supply cables for fixed wiring by qualified
technician.
Circuit breaker must be incorporated in the fixed wiring in accordance with
the national wiring regulations.
The circuit breaker must be approved, suitable for the voltage and current
ratings of equipment and have a contact separation by 3mm in all poles. When
the supply cable is damaged, it must be replaced by qualified technician.
Be sure to install a current leakage breaker, main switch and fuse to the main
power supply, otherwise electric shock may result.
Once installation work is completed, check that there are no refrigerant gas
in the room that can come into contact with sparks or flames from a fan
heater, stove or kitchen range, which will cause toxic gases to be generated.
CAUTION
Do not install the unit at the place where the possibility of inflammable gas
leakage exists. If such gas leakages should arise and the gas builds up around
the unit, such situation may lead to ignition.
Do not touch the air inlet or the sharp aluminium fin, you may get injured.
Be sure that the shield part of the shielded cable does not touch the terminal
block or any live parts. Failure to do so may lead to electric shock or fire.
Drain piping should be made to ensure secure drainage according to the manual
for installation work and carry out the thermal insulation to prevent the
occurrence of condensation. Imperfection in piping work leads to water leakage
and may cause the house and property, etc. to become wet.
Position the indoor unit and outdoor unit, power cords and indoor / outdoor
unit connection cables in a way so that they are at least 1 meter away from
televisions and radios. This is to avoid problems such as interference with
picture and / or sound. (However, note that depending on the electromagnetic
wave conditions, interference may still occur even if the separation distance
is more than 1 meter.)
When fixing the product with an overturn prevention wire, care should be taken
to choose a place where no one trips over the fixing wire.
Before wiring confirm the rated voltage of the unit as shown on its nameplate,
then carry out the wiring closely following the wiring diagram.
PRECAUTION FOR USING R32 REFRIGERANT
· The basic installation work procedures are the same as conventional
refrigerant (R410A, R22) models. However, pay careful attention to the
following points:
WARNING
Since the working pressure is higher than that of refrigerant R22 models, some
of the piping and installation and service tools are special. Especially, when
replacing a refrigerant R22 model with a new refrigerant R32 model, always
replace the conventional piping and flare nuts with the R32 and R410A piping
and flare nuts on the outdoor unit side. For R32 and R410A, the same flare nut
on the outdoor unit side and pipe can be used.
Models that use refrigerant R32 and R410A have a different charging port
thread diameter to prevent erroneous charging with refrigerant R22 and for
safety. Therefore, check beforehand.
Be more careful than R22 so that foreign matter (oil, water, etc.) does not
enter the piping. Also, when storing the piping, securely seal the opening by
pinching, taping, etc. (Handling of R32 is similar to R410A.)
CAUTION
1. Installation (Space) · That the installation of pipe-work shall be kept to
a minimum. · Must ensure that pipe-work shall be protected from physical
damage. · That compliance with national gas regulations shall be observed. ·
Must ensure mechanical connections be accessible for maintenance purposes. ·

· The area shall be checked with an appropriate refrigerant detector prior to
and during work, to ensure the technician is aware of potentially toxic or
flammable atmospheres.
· Ensure that the leak detection equipment being used is suitable for use with
all applicable refrigerants, i.e. non-sparking, adequately sealed or
intrinsically safe.
2-5. Presence of fire extinguisher
· If any hot work is to be conducted on the refrigeration equipment or any
associated parts, appropriate fire extinguishing equipment shall be available
to hand.
· Have a dry powder or CO2 fire extinguisher adjacent to the charging area.
2-6. No ignition sources
· No person carrying out work in relation to a refrigeration system which
involves exposing any pipe work shall use any sources of ignition in such a
manner that it may lead to the risk of fire or explosion.
· All possible ignition sources, including cigarette smoking, should be kept
sufficiently far away from the site of installation, repairing, removing and
disposal, during which refrigerant can possibly be released to the surrounding
space.
· Prior to work taking place, the area around the equipment is to be surveyed
to make sure that there are no flammable hazards or ignition risks.
· “No Smoking” signs shall be displayed.
2-7.Ventilated area
· Ensure that the area is in the open or that it is adequately ventilated
before breaking into the system or conducting any hot work.
· A degree of ventilation shall continue during the period that the work is
carried out. · The ventilation should safely disperse any released refrigerant
and preferably expel it externally into
the atmosphere.
2-8. Checks to the refrigeration equipment
· Where electrical components are being changed, they shall be fit for the
purpose and to the correct specification.
· At all times the manufacturer’s maintenance and service guidelines shall be
followed. · If in doubt, consult the manufacturer’s technical department for
assistance.
– The charge size is in accordance with the room size within which the
refrigerant containing parts are installed;
– The ventilation machinery and outlets are operating adequately and are not
obstructed; – Marking to the equipment continues to be visible and legible.
Markings and signs that are illegible
shall be corrected; – Refrigeration pipe or components are installed in a
position where they are unlikely to be exposed
to any substance which may corrode refrigerant containing components, unless
the components are constructed of materials which are inherently resistant to
being corroded or are suitably protected against being so corroded.
2-9. Checks to electrical devices
· Repair and maintenance to electrical components shall include initial safety
checks and component inspection procedures.
· If a fault exists that could compromise safety, then no electrical supply
shall be connected to the circuit until it is satisfactorily dealt with.
· If the fault cannot be corrected immediately but it is necessary to continue
operation, an adequate temporary solution shall be used.
· This shall be reported to the owner of the equipment so all parties are
advised. · Initial safety checks shall include:
– That no live electrical components and wiring are exposed while charging,
recovering or purging the system;
– That there is continuity of earth bonding.
3. Repairs to sealed components · During repairs to sealed components, all
electrical supplies shall be disconnected from the
equipment being worked upon prior to any removal of sealed covers, etc. ·
Particular attention shall be paid to the following to ensure that by working
on electrical components,
the casing is not altered in such a way that the level of protection is
affected. This shall include damage to cables, excessive number of
connections, terminals not made to original specification, damage to seals,
incorrect fitting of glands, etc. · Ensure that apparatus is mounted securely.
· Ensure that seals or sealing materials have not degraded to the point that
they no longer serve the purpose of preventing the ingress of flammable
atmospheres. · Replacement parts shall be in accordance with the
manufacturer’s specifications.
NOTE: The use of silicon sealant can inhibit the effectiveness of some types
of leak detection equipment. Intrinsically safe components do not have to be
isolated prior to working on them.
4. Repair to intrinsically safe components · Do not apply any permanent
inductive or capacitance loads to the circuit without ensuring that this
will not exceed the permissible voltage and current permitted for the
equipment in use. · Intrinsically safe components are the only types that can
be worked on while live in the presence of
a flammable atmosphere. The test apparatus shall be at the correct rating. ·
Replace components only with parts specified by the manufacturer. · Other
parts may result in the ignition of refrigerant in the atmosphere from a leak.
5. Cabling · Check that cabling will not be subject to wear, corrosion,
excessive pressure, vibration, sharp
edges or any other adverse environmental effects. · The check shall also take
into account the effects of aging or continual vibration from sources
such as compressors or fans.
6. Detection of flammable refrigerants · Under no circumstances shall
potential sources of ignition be used in the searching for or detection
of refrigerant leaks. · A halide torch (or any other detector using a naked
flame) shall not be used.
7. Leak detection methods · Electronic leak detectors may be used to detect
refrigerant leaks but, in the case of flammable
refrigerants, the sensitivity may not be adequate, or may need re-calibration.
(Detection equipment shall be calibrated in a refrigerant-free area.)
Page 1
· Ensure that the detector is not a potential source of ignition and is
suitable for the refrigerant used. · Leak detection equipment shall be set at
a percentage of the LFL of the refrigerant and shall be calibrated
to the refrigerant employed, and the appropriate percentage of gas (25 %
maximum) is confirmed. · Leak detection fluids are suitable for use with most
refrigerants but the use of detergents containing
chlorine shall be avoided as the chlorine may react with the refrigerant and
corrode the copper pipe-work. · If a leak is suspected, all naked flames shall
be removed/extinguished. · If a leakage of refrigerant is found which requires
brazing, all of the refrigerant shall be recovered from the
system, or isolated (by means of shut off valves) in a part of the system
remote from the leak. For appliances containing flammable refrigerants, oxygen
free nitrogen (OFN) shall then be purged through the system both before and
during the brazing process.
8. Removal and evacuation · When breaking into the refrigerant circuit to
make repairs-or for any other purpose-conventional
procedures shall be used. However, it is important that best practice is
followed since flammability is a consideration.The following procedure shall
be adhered to: · remove refrigerant; · purge the circuit with inert gas; ·
evacuate; · purge again with inert gas; · open the circuit by cutting or
brazing. · The refrigerant charge shall be recovered into the correct recovery
cylinders. · The system shall be “flushed” with OFN to render the unit safe.
This process may need to be repeated several times. · Compressed air or oxygen
shall not be used for purging refrigerant systems. · Flushing shall be
achieved by breaking the vacuum in the system with OFN and continuing to fill
until the working pressure is achieved, then venting to atmosphere, and
finally pulling down to a vacuum. · This process shall be repeated until no
refrigerant is within the system. · When the final OFN charge is used, the
system shall be vented down to atmospheric pressure to enable work to take
place. · This operation is absolutely vital if brazing operations on the pipe-
work are to take place. · Ensure that the outlet for the vacuum pump is not
close to any ignition sources and that ventilation is available.
9. Charging procedures · In addition to conventional charging procedures, the
following requirements shall be followed.
– Ensure that contamination of different refrigerants does not occur when
using charging equipment.
– Hoses or lines shall be as short as possible to minimize the amount of
refrigerant contained in them.
– Cylinders shall be kept upright.
– Ensure that the refrigeration system is earthed prior to charging the system
with refrigerant.
– Label the system when charging is complete (if not already).
– Extreme care shall be taken not to over fill the refrigeration system. ·
Prior to recharging the system it shall be pressure tested with OFN (refer to
7). · The system shall be leak tested on completion of charging but prior to
commissioning. · A follow up leak test shall be carried out prior to leaving
the site. · Electrostatic charge may accumulate and create a hazardous
condition when charging and
discharging the refrigerant. To avoid fire or explosion, dissipate static
electricity during transfer by grounding and bonding containers and equipment
before charging/discharging.
10. Decommissioning · Before carrying out this procedure, it is essential
that the technician is completely familiar with the
equipment and all its detail. · It is recommended good practice that all
refrigerants are recovered safely. · Prior to the task being carried out, an
oil and refrigerant sample shall be taken in case analysis is
required prior to re-use of reclaimed refrigerant. · It is essential that
electrical power is available before the task is commenced.
a) Become familiar with the equipment and its operation.
b) Isolate system electrically.
c) Before attempting the procedure ensure that:
· mechanical handling equipment is available, if required, for handling
refrigerant cylinders;
· all personal protective equipment is available and being used correctly;
· the recovery process is supervised at all times by a competent person;
· recovery equipment and cylinders conform to the appropriate standards.
d) Pump down refrigerant system, if possible.
e) If a vacuum is not possible, make a manifold so that refrigerant can be
removed from various parts of the system.
f) Make sure that cylinder is situated on the scales before recovery takes
place.
g) Start the recovery machine and operate in accordance with manufacturer’s
instructions.
h) Do not overfill cylinders. (No more than 80 % volume liquid charge).
i) Do not exceed the maximum working pressure of the cylinder, even
temporarily.
j) When the cylinders have been filled correctly and the process completed,
make sure that the cylinders and the equipment are removed from site promptly
and all isolation valves on the equipment are closed off.
k) Recovered refrigerant shall not be charged into another refrigeration
system unless it has been cleaned and checked.
· Electrostatic charge may accumulate and create a hazardous condition when
charging or discharging the refrigerant. To avoid fire or explosion, dissipate
static electricity during transfer by grounding and bonding containers and
equipment before charging/discharging.
11. Labelling · Equipment shall be labelled stating that it has been de-
commissioned and emptied of refrigerant. · The label shall be dated and
signed. · Ensure that there are labels on the equipment stating the equipment
contains flammable refrigerant.
12. Recovery · When removing refrigerant from a system, either for servicing
or decommissioning, it is
recommended good practice that all refrigerants are removed safely. · When
transferring refrigerant into cylinders, ensure that only appropriate
refrigerant recovery
cylinders are employed. · Ensure that the correct number of cylinders for
holding the total system charge are available. · All cylinders to be used are
designated for the recovered refrigerant and labelled for that refrigerant
(i.e. special cylinders for the recovery of refrigerant). · Cylinders shall be
complete with pressure-relief valve and associated shut-off valves in good
working order. · Empty recovery cylinders are evacuated and, if possible,
cooled before recovery occurs. · The recovery equipment shall be in good
working order with a set of instructions concerning the
equipment that is at hand and shall be suitable for the recovery of all
appropriate refrigerants including, when applicable, flammable refrigerants. ·
In addition, a set of calibrated weighing scales shall be available and in
good working order. · Hoses shall be complete with leak-free disconnect
couplings and in good condition. · Before using the recovery machine, check
that it is in satisfactory working order, has been properly maintained and
that any associated electrical components are sealed to prevent ignition in
the event of a refrigerant release. Consult manufacturer if in doubt. · The
recovered refrigerant shall be returned to the refrigerant supplier in the
correct recovery cylinder, and the relevant waste transfer note arranged. · Do
not mix refrigerants in recovery units and especially not in cylinders. · If
compressors or compressor oils are to be removed, ensure that they have been
evacuated to an acceptable level to make certain that flammable refrigerant
does not remain within the lubricant. · The evacuation process shall be
carried out prior to returning the compressor to the suppliers. · Only
electric heating to the compressor body shall be employed to accelerate this
process. · When oil is drained from a system, it shall be carried out safely.

If a strong wind of more than 5 m/sec blows to the area directly in front of the discharge, the outdoor unit’s air flow is reduced and the outflow may re- enter (short circuit) causing the following outcome:
“Reduced capacity”, “Increased frost formation during heating” or “Operation stopped due to increased pressure”.
Should an exceptionally strong wind blow to the area directly in front of the discharge of the outdoor unit; there is the risk of damage due to the fan’s high-speed reverse rotation.
If the direction of the prevailing wind is known when operating the unit, place the unit at an appropriate angle to the wind’s direction so that the discharge faces towards a building
or a wall.

3. If installing at locations prone to snowfall, install the unit as high as
possible with suitable roofing which shelters the unit from snow. 4. Avoid
installing the unit in locations where there are petroleum products (such as
machine oil), saline content (such as coastal areas), sulphurous gas and where
high frequency noise is generated. 5. Place the indoor and outdoor unit, power
cords and indoor/outdoor unit connection cables at a minimum distance of 1
meter or more away from televisions
and radios. This is to avoid interference to picture and/or sound. (However,
depending on the electromagnetic waves, noise interference may still occur
even with the 1 meter separation.) 6. For restaurants and kitchens, avoid
installing at locations which draws oil and steam. Plastic parts can
deteriorate from droplets of oil and steam or it can cause falling parts or
water leakage. 7. Avoid installing at the location where cutting oil mist or
iron powder is present. 8. If there is an immense voltage fluctuation due to
the location’s problem, ensure to split the power supply. 9. When installing
the product in a place where it will be affected by typhoon or strong wind
such as wind blowing between buildings, including the rooftop of a building
and a place where there is no building in surroundings, fix the product with
an overturn prevention wire, etc. 10. Ensure to assign several people or use a
mechanical lift, etc. to transport the unit.

For indoor unit refrigerant piping installation, refer to the installation
instruction manual that comes with that indoor unit. Do not reuse existing
piping, install new piping.
1. Precautions during refrigerant installation. Use clean pipes with no dust
inside. The pipe may corrode with the presence of fluorine dust which will
adversely affect the refrigerant piping system due to deterioration of the
refrigerant oil, etc. This unit is specifically for R32. Ensure to adhere to
the following items and install accordingly: · Use pipe cutters and flaring
tools which are specially designed for use with R32. · When connecting with
flaring tools, coat the flare section with ether-based oil. · Ensure to use
flare nuts supplied with the unit when connecting this unit. · Only for
storing or for open pipes. · Set the lower limit of the allowable pipe length
to 5m. If the pipe is shorter than 5m, the refrigerant may become overfilled
and a problem such as abnormal high pressure could occur. · Carefully handle
the liquid refrigerant, as it may cause a frostbite. · Do not release
refrigerants during the piping works for installing, re-installing and
repairing refrigeration parts.
2. The local pipes can protrude from any four directions. Make holes in the pipe panel for the pipes to penetrate it and lay the pipes accordingly. · It is recommended to apply additional substance to the cut area for anti-rust protection. Ensure to install pipe panels to prevent rain water from getting into the unit. Close the gap at the pipe connected area with putty or heat insulator (locally supplied). · If an insect or small animal enters the outdoor unit, there is the risk of shorting in the product electronic casing. [Remove the front panel] (1) Remove the 2 mounting screws. (2) Slide the front panel using your hands downwards to release the pawls. Then remove by pulling the panel towards you.

Precautions when operating the 3-way valve for piping installation
Do not open the 3-way valve until the piping installation is completed. · It
is closed during shipment. · During installation the side panel may warp if
only the flare nut is loosened and tightened with a torque wrench.
As a result, always be sure to secure to the hexagonal part of the 3-way valve
with a spanner, or other tool. Refer to the following table for the tightening
torque of the 3-way valve flare nuts. · If the nuts are over tightened, they
may cause the flares to break or leak. Do not add additional force to the
valve’s cover. · Using spanners on the cover or valve itself (other than the
hexagonal parts) may cause gas leakage.
Avoid using spanners on the cover or parts other than the hexagonal part of
the valve.

Ensure to do the re-flaring of pipes before connecting to units to avoid
leaking.
To prevent the ingress of moisture into the joint which could have the
potential to freeze and then cause leakage, the joint must be sealed with
suitable silicone and insulation material. The joint should be sealed on both
liquid and gas side.
[3-way valve operation method] · Use an Allen wrench (Size 4 mm or 6 mm).
Direction to open
Insulation material and silicone sealant. Please ensure there are no gaps
where moisture can enter the joint.
Silicone Sealant must be neutral cure and ammonia free. Use of silicon
containing ammonia can lead to stress corrosion on the joint and cause
leakage.
Opening : Open the cover and turn the Allen wrench counter-clockwise until it stops. Closing : Open the cover and turn the Allen wrench clockwise until it stops.
Precautions for handling the valve cap
Ensure not to scratch the inner surface of the valve or the end of the valve
shaft. · Once adjustments to the valve are completed, ensure to tighten the
valve cap according to the prescribed torque.
Precautions for handling the service ports
Use a push-rod with a charge hose. · Once adjustments to the valve are
completed, ensure to tighten the valve cap according to the prescribed torque.
Precautions for connecting the pipes
For proper connection, align the union and flare straight with each other.
Ensure that the pipes do not come into contact with the compressor’s bolts or
exterior panel. There is a risk of condensation from the 3-way valve coming
out between the insulation material and the indoor unit’s piping when you
install the outdoor unit above then the indoor unit. Ensure to caulk the
connection parts.
Precautions for insulation installation
Maximum temperature limit of gas or liquid piping exceeds 120 °C
In high humidity environment, reinforce the insulation material for the refrigerant piping. Failure to do so may result in condensation on the surface of the insulation material. Use materials with good heat-resistant properties as the heat insulator for the pipes. Ensure to insulate both the gas side and liquid side pipes. If the pipes are not adequately insulated, condensation and water leakages may occur. Ensure that the current insulation covers the pipes up to the unit’s connecting part. If the piping is exposed, it may cause condensation or burn (when touch the pipe).

6. LEAK TEST AND EVACUATION
Leak Tightness Test Method
Keep 3-way valve fully closed and pressurize through three-way valve service
port. Do not pressurize to the default value at once. Pressurize gradually. 1
Pressurize to 0.5MPa (5 f/cm²G) and then leave it for 5 minutes to ensure that
the pressure does not drop. 2 Pressurize to 1.5MPa (15 f/cm²G) and leave it
for 5 minutes to ensure that the pressure does not drop. 3 For the test,
pressurize to 4.15MPa and leave it for about 1 day to ensure that the pressure
does not drop.
EVACUATION
Use a vacuum pump (with back-flow prevention device) to vacuum through the
3-way valve service port to achieve the pressure below -101kPa (5 Torr). Air
and moisture remaining in the refrigerant system due to poor vacuum drying can
cause performance decrement and malfunction of the compressor.
7. REGARDING REFRIGERANT FILLING

thickness and length appropriately measured as described in the instructions?
Is it earthed (grounded)? Check that the insulation resistant value is more
than 100M. Use the 500 V mega-testers to measure the insulation. Do not use
the mega-tester for any other circuit except for voltage of 220-230-240V~ or
380-400-415V 3N~. Are the wire connections for the indoor/outdoor units
connected as described in the instructions? Are there any looped wires? Was
the “N-phase” surely connected when connecting the power supply wire on the
three-phase model? If N-phase is not connected, only the fan may repeat
turning ON/OFF without the compressor operating. In that case, check if there
is any problem with N-phase connection.
Is the piping installed as described in the instructions? Are the pipes sizes
appropriate? Does the pipe’s length adhere to the specifications? Is the
branch pipe slant being appropriately done as described in the instructions?
Was vacuum removal sufficiently carried out? Was the leak tightness test
carried out with nitrogen gas? Use the testing pressure of 4.15 MPa. Is the
piping insulation material appropriately installed? (Insulation material is
necessary for both gas and liquid piping.) Is the 3-way valve for the liquid
side and gas side open?
Always be sure to use a properly insulated tool to operate the short-circuit pin on the circuit board. (Do not use your finger.) Never switch the power supply ON until the installation has completed. Supply electrical current through all indoor units and check the voltage. Supply electrical current through all the outdoor units and check each inter-phase voltage. Before the test run, ensure to check that the 3-way valve is open. Operating while the valve is closed causes the compressor to fail.
Test Run Procedure
If there are duplicated system addresses, or if the settings for the Nos. of
the indoor units are not consistent, an alarm will occur and the system will
not start. Switch the power supply ON both indoor and outdoor unit. Short-
circuit CHK pin on the outdoor main PCB. Do not remove CHK pin until test run
is completed. Removing CHK pin stops test run. Short-circuit RUN pin on the
outdoor main PCB for one second or longer. Factory setting is cooling
operation mode and cooling operation test run starts. If heating operation
starts, short-circuit both right side and centre of the MODE pin (centre and
COOL) continuously. Ensure to conduct a test run. In addition, be sure to run
the cooling operation test run for at least 20 minutes before starting the
heating operation test run. To conduct heating operation test run, short-
circuit left side and centre of the MODE pin (centre and HEAT) continuously.
Removing CHK pin’s and MODE pin’s short-circuit stops test run. For the test
run using remote control unit, please see installation instructions included
with the remote control unit.

Caution for Pump Down
Pump down means refrigerant gas in the system is returned to the outdoor
MODE pin
unit. Pump down is used when the unit is to be moved, or before servicing the refrigerant circuit.

Pump-Down begins and the unit starts operating.
During Pump-Down, LED1 blinks and LED2 is lit on an outdoor unit control
PCB (CR). CHK blinks on the remote controller. 4 Fully close the liquid wiring valve 2-3 minutes later.
Note : In the case that inter-unit wiring is 30m or longer, you cannot pump- down. (lt may trigger the operation of the overload protection device.)

11. CHECKS AFTER INSTALLATION HAVE COMPLETED
Check the following items after completing installation. Is there a short
circuit with the intake air flow? Is the insulation secure? (Refrigerant
piping) Are there any errors with the wiring? Are the terminal screws loose?
Tightening torque (Unit: N·m { f·cm}) M4…1.57~1.96{16~20}, M5…1.96~2.45{20~25}
Is the drain water flowing smoothly? Is the insulation material properly
installed? Is the earth wire securely connected? Is the front panel and the
indoor unit air conditioner firmly fixed and was the installation completed
without any leakage from the refrigerant? Are the indoor and outdoor units
secured firmly installed with bolts at secured locations?
12. REGARDING DELIVERY TO THE CUSTOMER
