Turn off the knobs firstly and then the pump, and if the pressure of the pressure-vacuum gauge
does not rise within 2 hours, the system is under a vacuum. Otherwise, the system has leaked,

6.8 Refrigerant Charging
The refrigerant has been charged into the outdoor unit before shipped from the manufacturer,
while additional refrigerant still need be charged into the refrigerant pipe in the field installation.
6.8.1 Calculation of the Additional Refrigerant Charging
1)
Get the refrigerant charge of the outdoor unit from the nameplate.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note:
The refrigerant charge of the outdoor unit does not include the charged additionally in the
indoor unit, BU module and the refrigerant pipe.
For the length of the connecting pipe is decided on the field, the amount of additional
refrigerant shall be decided depending on the dimension and the length of the liquid pipe used
on the field.
It does not need to add refrigerant if the total length of liquid pipe is within 30m.
