NOTICE
Use an appropriate wrench to avoid damaging the
connection thread by overtightening the flare nut. Be
careful NOT to overtighten the nut, or the smaller pipe may
be damaged (about 2/3-1× the normal torque).
4.2.2
To connect the refrigerant piping to the
outdoor unit
▪
Piping length.
Keep field piping as short as possible.
▪
Piping protection.
Protect the field piping against physical
damage.
WARNING
Connect the refrigerant piping securely before running the
compressor. If the refrigerant piping is NOT connected and
the stop valve is open when the compressor is run, air will
be sucked in. This will cause abnormal pressure in the
refrigeration cycle, which may result in equipment damage
and even injury.

Connect the liquid refrigerant connection from the indoor unit to
the liquid stop valve of the outdoor unit.

NOTICE
It is recommended that the refrigerant piping between
indoor and outdoor unit is installed in a ducting or the
refrigerant piping is wrapped with finishing tape.

Checking the refrigerant piping
4.3.1
