2. Align the center of the pipings and sufficiently

tighten the flare nut by hand

3. Finally, tighten the flare nut with torque

wrench until the wrench clicks.

When tightening the flare nut with torque
wrench, ensure the direction for tightening
follows the arrow on the wrench.

CAUTION: Use two wrenches and

tighten with regular torque.

• In case of 100 kBtu/h Outdoor Unit: Use Short

Tube for connecting 48 kBtu/h indoor unit to
the outdoor unit, not the Branch Distributor.

• In case of 150 kBtu/h Outdoor Unit: Use Y

Connector for connecting 48 kBtu/h indoor
unit to the Branch Distributor.
