  • Prevent the wirings from touching the refrigerant pipes, plate edges, and electrical parts inside the unit. If not done so, the wires will be damaged and in the worst-case scenario, a fire will occur.

  • Install an ELB (Electric Leakage Break) at the power source. If an ELB is not used, it can cause electric shock or fire at the worst-case scenario.

  • This unit uses an inverter, which means that it must use an earth leak detector capable of handling harmonics in order to prevent malfunctioning of the earth leak detector itself.

  • Do not use intermediate connection wires, stranded wires(see Attentions when Connecting the Power Supply Wiring ), extension cables or control line connection, as the use of these wires may cause unwanted heat, electric shock, or fire.

  • The tightening torque of each screw shall be as follows.
    M4: 0.7 to 1.0 lbf·ft. (1.0 to 1.3 N·m)
    M5: 1.5 to 1.8 lbf·ft. (2.0 to 2.5 N·m)
    M6: 3.0 to 3.7 lbf·ft. (4.0 to 5.0 N·m)
    M8: 6.6 to 8.1 lbf·ft. (9.0 to 11.0 N·m)
    M10: 13.3 to 217 lbf·ft. (18.0 to 23.0 N·m)
    Keep the above tightening torque values in mind when performing wiring work.

CAUTION

  • Wrap tape material along the wire and seal wiring holes, to prevent entrance of condensed water and insects.
  • Tightly secure the power source wiring using the cord clamp inside the unit.
    Note: Fix the rubber bushes with adhesive when conduit tubes to the outdoor unit are not used.
    General Check

If the matching indoor (air handling) unit does not have an S1 terminal, then ignore the S1 to S1 connection.

Test Run

Test run should be performed only after refrigerant piping, drain, wiring, etc. have been completed.

CAUTION
The air conditioner is provided together with a crankcase heater. Check to ensure that the switch on the main power source has been ON for more than 6 hours ahead of power on preheating, otherwise it might damage the compressor!

Do not operate the system until all of the following check points have been cleared.
(A) Check to ensure that the stop valves of the outdoor unit are fully opened.
(B) Check to ensure that the electric wires have been fully connected.
(C) Check to ensure that the electrical resistance is more than 2M, by measuring the resistance between ground and the terminal of the electrical parts. If not, do not operate the system until the electrical leakage is found and repaired.

Test Run Function Identification
Operate the thermostat to turn ON the appliance, and then proceed with the test run.
Pay attention while the system is running.
Do not touch any of the parts by hand at the discharge gas side, since the compressor chamber and the pipes at the discharge side are will be at temperatures higher than 194°F( 90°C).

Turn off the power after test run is finished.
Installation of the appliance is generally finished after the above operations are done. If you still have any trouble, please contact the local technical service center of our company for further information.
