Before Operation

  • Supply electrical power to the system for approximately 6 hours before start-up after a long time shutdown.
  • Do not start the system immediately after the power supply, it may cause a compressor failure because the compressor is not heated well.
  • Make sure that the outdoor unit is not covered with snow or ice. If covered, remove it by using hot water [approximately 122°F(50°C)]. If the water temperature is more than 122°F (50°C), it will damage the plastic parts.
  • When the system is started after a long time shutdown of more than 3 months, it is recommended that the system be checked by your service dealer.
  • Turn OFF the main switch when the system is stopped for a long period of time. If the main switch is not turned OFF, electricity is consumed because the oil heater is always energized during compressor stops.

Special remarks

  • 3 minutes protection after compressor stop
    To protect the compressor, it will continue to be off for at least 3 minutes once it has stopped.

  • 5 minutes protection
    The compressor must run at least for 5 minutes once it starts running. In these 5 minutes, the compressor will not stop even if the room temperature reaches the set temperature point unless you use a remote controller to turn off the unit (all indoor units can be turned off by the user).

  • Cooling operation
    The fan of the indoor unit will never stop running during the cooling operation. It remains running even if the compressor stops working.

  • Heating operation
    Heating capacity depends on external factors like outdoor unit temperature. Heating capacity might decrease if The outdoor ambient temperature is too low.

  • Anti-freezing function during cooling
    When the temperature of the air from the indoor outlet is too low, the unit will run for some time under the fan mode, to avoid frost or ice forming in the indoor heat exchanger.

  • Cold air prevention
    In several minutes after the heating mode is started, the fan of the indoor unit will not run until the heat exchanger of the indoor unit reaches a certain temperature to prevent a cold draft.

  • Defrosting
    When the outdoor temperature is too low, frost or ice may form on the outdoor heat exchanger, reducing heating performance. When this happens, a defrosting system of the air conditioner will operate. At the same time, the fan in the indoor unit stops (or runs at a very low speed in some cases), to prevent a cold draft. After defrosting is over the heating operation and fan speed restart.

  • Blowing out the residual heating air
    When the air conditioner is stopped during normal operation, the fan motor would run at low speed for a while to blow out residual heating air.

  • Auto-restart from Power Break
    When the power supply is recovered after the power break, all presets are still effective and the air-conditioner will run according to the previous setting.

  • Dew on Air Panel
    When the cooling operation continues for a long period of time under high humidity conditions, dew can form on the air panel.

  • Refrigerant Flow Sound
    While the system is being started or stopped, sound from the refrigerant flow may be heard.

Mode lnterfere(for multi-split)
For the reason that all indoor units use one outdoor unit, the outdoor unit can only run with the same model (cooling or heating), so, when the mode you set is different from the mode that outdoor is running with, mode interference occurs. Following shows, the mode interference scene.

| cooling| dry| heating| fan
---|---|---|---|---
cooling| √| √| √| √
dry| √| √| √| √
heating| X| X| √| X
fan| √| √| X| √

√ — normal
x — mode interfere

The outdoor unit always run with the mode of the first indoor unit that is turned on. when the setting mode of following the indoor unit interferes with it, 3 beeps would be heard, and the indoor unit interfered with the normal running units would turn off automatically

Electrical Installation

  • Use an ELB (Electric Leakage Breaker). If not used, it may cause an electric shock or a fire.
  • Do not operate the system until all the checkpoints have been cleared.
    (A) Check to ensure that the insulation resistance is more than 2MQ, by measuring the resistance between the ground and the terminal of the electrical parts. If not, do not operate the system until the electrical leakage is found and repaired.
    (B) Check to ensure that the stop valves of the outdoor unit are fully opened and then start the system.Model Capacity(Btu/h)| Transmitting Cable Size
    ---|---
    9K~36K| 4X16AWG

Note:

  1. Follow local codes and regulations when selecting field wires and all the above are the minimum wire size.
  2. Use copper supply wires.
  3. When transmitting cable length is more than 49 ft. (15m), a larger wire size should be selected.
  4. Install the main switch and ELB for each system separately. Select the high response type ELB that is acted within 0.1second.
