DJUSTMENT
The outdoor temperature must be 60°F or higher. Set the room
thermostat to COOL, fan switch to AUTO, and set the temperature
control well below room temperature.
After system has stabilized per startup instructions, check sub-
cooling and superheat as detailed in the following section.

CAUTION
NOTE: Units matched with indoor coils equipped with non-adjust-
able TXV should be charged by subcooling only.
Run the unit on low stage cooling for 10 minutes until refrigerant
pressures stabilize. Use the following guidelines and methods to
check unit operation and ensure that the refrigerant charge is within
limits. Charge the unit on low stage.
1. Purge gauge lines. Connect service gauge manifold to base-
valve service ports. Run system at least 10 minutes to allow
pressure to stabilize.
2. Temporarily install a thermometer on the liquid line at the
liquid line service valve and 4-6" from the compressor on
the suction line. Ensure the thermometer makes adequate
contact and is insulated for best possible readings. Use
liquid line temperature to determine subcooling and vapor
temperature to determine superheat.
