• Connect all wiring tightly. Loose wiring may cause overheating at connection points and a possible fi re hazard.

When Transporting
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 fi ns on the air conditioner can cut your fingers.
When Installing
In a Ceiling or Wall
Make sure the ceiling/wall is strong enough to hold the unit’s weight. It may be necessary to construct a strong wood or metal frame to provide added support.

In a Room
Properly insulate any tubing run inside a room to prevent “sweating” that can cause dripping and water damage to walls and fl oors.

In an Area with High Winds
Securely anchor the outdoor unit down with bolts and a metal frame. Provide a suitable air baffl e.

In a Snowy Area (for Heat Pump-type Systems)
Install the outdoor unit on a raised platform that is higher than drifting snow.

When Connecting Refrigerant Tubing

• Keep all tubing runs as short as possible.
• Use the fl are method for connecting tubing.
• Apply refrigerant lubricant to the matching surfaces of the flare and union tubes before connecting them, then tighten the nut with a torque wrench for a leak-free connection.
• Check carefully for leaks before opening the refrigerant valves.

When Servicing

• Turn the power OFF at the main circuit breaker panel before opening the unit to check or repair electrical parts and wiring.
• Keep your fingers and clothing away from any moving parts.

PRODUCT SPECIFICATION

Precautions for using R410A refrigerant

The basic installation work procedures are the same as conventional refrigerant (R22) models.

However, pay careful attention to the following points:

• Since the working pressure is 1.6 times higher than that of conventional refrigerant (R22) models, some of the piping and installation and service tools are special. (Refer to the following table.) Especially, when replacing a conventional refrigerant (R22) model with a new refrigerant R410A model, always replace the conventional piping and fl are nuts with the R410A piping and fl are nuts.
• Models that use refrigerant R410A have a different charging port thread diameter to prevent erroneous charging with conventional refrigerant (R22) and for safety. Therefore, check beforehand. [The charging port thread diameter for R410A is 1/2-20 UNF.]
• Be more careful that foreign matter (oil, water, etc.) does not enter the piping than with refrigerant (R22) models. Also, when storing the piping, securely seal the opening by pinching, taping, etc.
• When charging the refrigerant, take into account the slight change in the composition of the gas and liquid phases. And always charge from the liquid phase where the refrigerant composition is stable.

Installation tools

Gauge manifold

| Pressure is high and cannot be measured with a R22 gauge. To prevent erroneous mixing of other refrigerants, the diameter of each port has been changed.

It is recommended the gauge with seals -30 inHg to 768 psi (-0.1 to 5.3 MPa) for high pressure.

-30 inHg to 551 psi (-0.1 to 3.8 MPa) for low pressure.

Charge hose| To increase pressure resistance, the hose material and base size were changed.
Vacuum pump| A conventional vacuum pump can be used by installing a vacuum pump adapter.
Gas leakage detector| Special gas leakage detector for HFC refrigerant R410A.

Copper pipes
It is necessary to use seamless copper pipes and it is desirable that the amount of residual oil is less than 0.004 oz/100 ft. (40 mg/10 m). Do not use copper pipes having a collapsed, deformed or discolored portion (especially on the interior surface). Otherwise, the expansion value or capillary tube may become blocked with contaminants. As an air conditioner using R410A incurs pressure higher than when using R22, it is nec-essary to choose adequate materials.

WARNING

• Do not use the existing (for R22) piping and flare nuts. If the existing materials are used, the pressure inside the refrigerant cycle will rise and cause failure, injury, etc. (Use the special R410A materials.)
• Use (refi ll or replace with) specifi ed refrigerant (R410A) only. Use of unspecifi ed refrigerant can cause product malfunction, burst, or injury.
• Do not mix any gas or impurities except specifi ed refrigerant (R410A). Infl ow of air or application of unspecifi ed material makes the internal pressure of the refrigerant cycle too high, and may cause product malfunction, burst of piping, or injury.
• For installation purposes, be sure to use the parts supplied by the manufacturer or other prescribed parts. The use of non-prescribed parts can cause serious accidents such as the unit falling, water leakage, electric shock, or fire.
• Do not turn on the power until all work has been completed.

CAUTION
This manual describes how to install the indoor unit only. To install the outdoor unit or branch box, (if any), refer to the installation manual included in each product.

For authorized service personnel only

WARNING

CAUTION
Install heat insulation around both the gas and liquid pipes. Failure to do so may cause water leaks. Use heat insulation with heat resistance above 248 °F (120 °C). Reverse cycle model only. In addition, if the humidity level at the installation location of the refrigerant piping is expected to exceed 70%, install heat insulation around the refrigerant piping. If the expected humidity level is 70-80%, use heat insulation that is 3/4 in. (15 mm) or thicker and if the expected humidity exceeds 80%, use heat insulation that is 13/16 in. (20 mm) or thicker. If heat insulation is used that is not as thick as specifi ed, condensation may form on the surface of the insulation. In addition, use heat insulation with heat conductivity of 0.045 W/(m.K) or less (at [68 °F (20 °C)]).

Bending pipes

CAUTION

• To prevent breaking of the pipe, avoid sharp bends.
• If the pipe is bent repeatedly at the same place, it will break.
• The pipes are shaped by your hands. Be careful not to collapse them.
• Bend R2-3/4 in (R70 mm) or more with a pipe bender.
• Do not bend the pipes in an angle more than 90°.
• When pipes are repeatedly bend or stretched, the material will harden, making it diffi cult to bend or stretch them anymore.
• Do not bend or stretch the pipes more than 3 times.
• When bending the pipe, do not bend it as is. The pipe will be collapsed. In this case, cut the insulating pipe with a sharp cutter as shown on the right, and bend it after exposing the pipe. After bending the pipe as you want, be sure to put the heat insu-lating pipe back on the pipe, and secure it with tape.

Flare connection

CAUTION

• Be sure to install the pipe against the port on the indoor unit correctly. If the center-ing is improper, the fl are nut cannot be tightened smoothly. If the fl are nut is forced to turn, the threads will be damaged.
• Do not remove the fl are nut from the indoor unit pipe until immediately before connecting the connection pipe.
• Hold the torque wrench at its grip, keeping it in the right angle with the pipe, in order to tighten the fl are nut correctly.
• Tighten the fl are nuts with a torque wrench using the specifi ed tightening method. Otherwise, the fl are nuts could break after a prolonged period, causing the refrigerant to leak and generate hazardous gas if the refrigerant comes into contact with a flame.
• Connect the piping so that the control box cover can easily be removed for servicing when necessary.
• In order to prevent water from leaking into the control box, make sure that the piping is well insulated.

When the flare nut is tightened properly by your hand, hold the body side coupling with a wrench, then tighten with a torque wrench. (Refer to the following table for the flare nut tightening torques.)
