8.10.SYSTEM STARTUP
1.Turn thermostat to "OFF", turn on power supply at disconnect switch.
3.Turn fan switch to "ON". Indoor blower should run. Be sure it is running in the right direction.
4.Turn fan switch to "AUTO". Turn system switch to "COOL" and turn temperature setting below
room temperature. Unit should run in cooling mode.
6.Check the refrigerant charge (see Instructions under "Charging the System").
7.Replace service port caps. Service port cores are for system access only and will leak if
not tightly capped.
9.Instruct the owner on operation and maintenance.
Leave this "Installation and Operating Manual" and the "Use and Care Manual" with owner.

8. The system is now off.
The cooling system is now in operation.
The liquid, under reduced pressure, then enters the indoor coil surface it expands and absorbs
heat from the indoor air passing over the finned surface. Heat from the indoor air, causes the low
pressure liquid to evaporate and cool the indoor air. The refrigerant has now been converted to cool vapor.

The operation cycle as follows:
The accumulator separates any liquid refrigerant and holds it. Only vapor refrigerant and
The thermostat calls for cooling when the space temperature is above the set point.
This sends a 24 voltage signal through the “Y” terminal to the outdoor unit PCB, after 3 minutes
