or below after 2 hours. If after three hours of
operation and the gauge reading is still above
-0.1MPa, check if there is a gas leak or water inside
the pipe. If there is no leakage, perform another
evacuation for 1 or 2 hours.

DO NOT
use refrigerant gas to evacuate the
system.
Evacuation Instructions
Before using manifold gauge and vacuum pump, read their
operation manuals to familiarize yourself with how to use
them properly.

1. Connect the charge hose of the manifold gauge to
service port on the outdoor unit’s low pressure valve.
2. Connect another charge hose from the manifold gauge
to the vacuum pump.
3. Open the Low Pressure side of the manifold gauge.
Keep the High Pressure side closed.
4. Turn on the vacuum pump to evacuate the system.
5. Run the vacuum for at least 15 minutes, or until the
NOTE:
If there is no change in system pressure, unscrew
the cap from the packed valve (high pressure valve). If
there is a change in system pressure, there may be a gas
leak.
8. Insert hexagonal wrench into the packed valve (high
pressure valve) and open the valve by turning the
wrench in a 1/4 counterclockwise turn. Listen for gas to
exit the system, then close the valve after 5 seconds.

9. Watch the Pressure Gauge for one minute to make sure
that there is no change in pressure. The Pressure Gauge
should read slightly higher than atmospheric pressure.
10. Remove the charge hose from the service port.
11. Using hexagonal wrench, fully open both the high
pressure and low pressure valves.
OPEN VALVE STEMS GENTLY
When opening valve stems, turn the hexagonal wrench
until it hits against the stopper.
DO NOT
try to force the
valve to open further.
12. Tighten valve caps by hand, then tighten it using the
proper tool.
