: OFF, ON or Brinking
(1) Open the liquid pipe and gas pipe shutoff valves. (The valve A~C
must be closed. See figure 31.)
(2)
•
Close the EL. COMPO. BOX (1) lid and all front panel except on the
EL. COMPO. BOX (1) side. (*1) And turn the power to the outdoor
unit and all connected indoor units. (*2)
•
After H2P stop blinking (about 12 minutes after turning on the
power), check H2P is OFF.
If H2P is ON, check the malfunction code in the remote controller of
indoor unit and correct the malfunction in accordance with [Remote
controller display malfunction code] in chapter 11-2-2.
(3) Check the LED. And push the MODE button (BS1) once if the LED
displays is not as below.
(4) Push the TEST button (BS4) once. (The LED displays will change as
below.)
(5) Hold the TEST button (BS4) down for 5 seconds or more.
(The LED displays will change as below and fan of outside unit will
start rotation.)
(6) When the compressor start working and the LED displays change
any state in below (*3), go to “In case of cooling mode” or “In case of
heating mode” in accordance with the LED displays.
In case of cooling mode
(7) Push the TEST button (BS4) once within 5 minutes after procedure
(5) (*4) and close the all front panels (*5).
After that, open the valve A immediately (See figure 31) (*6) and
watch the remote controller display of indoor unit.
(8) If the remote controller display shows “PE” code (*7), ready to close the
valve A.
And go to procedure (9).
If the remote controller display shows other code, close the valve A imme-
diately and refer to [Remote controller cooling mode malfunction code]
Beware the fan running when open the front panel.
The fan may continue rotation after the system stop the operation.
(9) When the compressor stop working (the fan may continue rotation.),
close the valve A immediately (*8).
And check the LED displays are as below and the remote controller
display shows “P9” code.
After checking, push the MODE button (BS1) once and the charging
is complete.
In case of heating mode
(7) Push the TEST button (BS4) once within 5 minutes after procedure
(5) (*4) and close the all front panels.
After that, open the valve A immediately (See figure 31) (*6) and
check the charged amount by meauring device.
During operation, if the remote controller display shows “P2” or “P8”
code, close the valve A immediately and refer to [Remote controller
heating mode malfunction code].
Beware the fan running when open the front panel.
The fan may continue rotation after the system stop the operation.
(8) When the required amount of refrigerant is charged, close the valve
A (See figure 30) (*8) and push the RETURN button (BS3) once. And
then go to procedure (9).
(9) Push the MODE button (BS1) once, and the charging is complete.
Notes (*1)~(*9)
(*1) Lead the refrigerant charge hose etc from the pipe intake.
All front panels must be closed at the procedure (7).
(*2)
•
If you perform the refrigerant charging operation within the refrig-
erant system that have the power off unit, the operation cannot fin-
ish properly.
Check the number of outside and indoor units that is powered.
For checking, see [How to check how many units are connected]
in chapter 11-1.
•
To energize the crankcase heater, make sure to turn on for
6 hours before starting operation.
(*3) It takes about 2~10 minutes for getting stability of refrigerant state.
If the additional refrigerant is little and operation is started before
getting stability, the system can not judge the charging amount pre-
cisely and it cause over charge.
(*4) If the TEST button (BS4) is not pushed within 5 minutes, “P2” code
will displayed in the remote controller. In this case, refer [Remote
controller cooling (or heating) mode malfunction code].
(*5) If the front panel is opened during the operation, the system cannot
operate properly.
(*6) If you leave the system without connecting the refrigerant tank or
opening the valve A for 30 minutes or more, the system stop oper-
ation and “P2” code are displayed in remote controller.
In this case, refer [Remote controller cooling (or heating) mode mal-
function code].
(*7) Depending on the situation of operation such as the charging
amount is little, the “PE” code may not be displayed and the “P9”
code may be displayed.
(*8) Always close the valve A and take the tank off.
The refrigerant charge port of this unit have electric expansion valve
and the valve are closed when charging is finished. However, the
valve will opened when ather operation (Check operation, nomal
operation, etc.). If you leave the tank connected, the refrigerant will
charged and it cause over charge.

The refrigerant tank is empty. Close the valve A and replace
empty tank to the new tank. After changing the tank, open the
valve A again.
Beware the fan running. The outside unit does not
stop operation.
P8
Close the valve A immediately, and restart the operation from
procedure (3).

Operation is interrupted. Close the
valve A immedeately and check the
below items.
•
Check if gas pipe or liquid pipe
shutoff valve is opened.
•
Check the refrigerant tank is con-
nected and the valve A was opend.
