▪ ALWAYS use 2 wrenches together when loosening a flare nut.
▪ ALWAYS use a spanner and torque wrench together to tighten the
flare nut when connecting the piping. This to prevent nut cracking
and leaks.

To connect the refrigerant piping to the
indoor unit
WARNING: MILDLY FLAMMABLE MATERIAL
The refrigerant inside this unit is mildly flammable.
▪
Pipe length
. Keep refrigerant piping as short as possible.
▪ Connect refrigerant piping to the unit using
flare connections
.
▪ Pipework
shall be protected from physical damage.
▪
Insulate
the refrigerant piping, interconnection cable and drain
hose on the indoor unit as follows:

NOTICE
Make sure to insulate all refrigerant piping. Any exposed
piping might cause condensation.

Checking the refrigerant piping
6.3.1
To check for leaks
NOTICE
Do NOT exceed the unit's maximum working pressure (see
"PS High" on the unit name plate).
NOTICE
ALWAYS use a recommended bubble test solution from
your wholesaler.
NEVER use soap water:
▪ Soap water may cause cracking of components, such
as flare nuts or stop valve caps.
▪ Soap water may contain salt, which absorbs moisture
that will freeze when the piping gets cold.
▪ Soap water contains ammonia which may lead to
corrosion of flared joints (between the brass flare nut
and the copper flare).
1
Charge the system with nitrogen gas up to a gauge pressure of
at least 200 kPa (2 bar). It is recommended to pressurize to
3000 kPa (30 bar) in order to detect small leaks.
2
Check for leaks by applying the bubble test solution to all
connections.
3
Discharge all nitrogen gas.
6.3.2
To perform vacuum drying
1
Vacuum the system until the pressure on the manifold indicates
−0.1 MPa (−1 bar).
2
Leave as is for 4-5 minutes and check the pressure:
If the pressure…
Then…
Does not change
There is no moisture in the
system. This procedure is
finished.
Increases
There is moisture in the
system. Go to the next step.
3
Vacuum the system for at least 2 hours to a manifold pressure
of −0.1 MPa (−1 bar).
4
After turning the pump OFF, check the pressure for at least
1 hour.
5
If you do NOT reach the target vacuum or CANNOT maintain
the vacuum for 1 hour, do the following:
▪ Check for leaks again.
▪ Perform vacuum drying again.

Electrical installation
DANGER: RISK OF ELECTROCUTION
WARNING
ALWAYS use multicore cable for power supply cables.
WARNING
If the supply cord is damaged, it MUST be replaced by the
manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified
persons in order to avoid a hazard.
WARNING
Do NOT connect the power supply to the indoor unit. This
could result in electrical shock or fire.
WARNING
▪ Do NOT use locally purchased electrical parts inside
the product.
▪ Do NOT branch the power supply for the drain pump,
etc. from the terminal block. This could result in
electrical shock or fire.
