NOTE:
When the total capacity of the following indoor unit connected is 50% or more of the outdoor
unit capacity, then add
1.2 times of the above total additional refrigerant charge (WT).

NOTE:
Ensure that the total additional charge WT does not exceed the maximum additional refrigerant charge quantity
as shown in the table on the following page.
Although this unit has been charged with refrigerant, an additional refrigerant charge is required according to
piping length.
Determine what additional quantity of refrigerant according to the following procedures, and charge it into the
system. Record the additional refrigerant quantity to facilitate maintenance and servicing activities thereafter.
