3.4.3. Sealing the holes
Use putty or a caulking compound to seal the holes.
4. Refrigerant pipe
4.1. Connecting pipes (Fig. 4-1)
• When commercially available copper pipes are used, wrap liquid and gas pipes
with commercially available insulation materials (heat-resistant to 100°C or more,
thickness of 12 mm or more).
• The indoor parts of the drain pipe should be wrapped with polyethylene foam
insulation materials (specific gravity of 0.03, thickness of 9 mm or more).
• Apply thin layer of refrigerant oil to pipe and joint seating surface before tighten-
ing flare nut.
• Use two wrenches to tighten piping connections.
• Use refrigerant piping insulation provided to insulate indoor unit connections.
Insulate carefully.
Warning:
When installing the unit, securely connect the refrigerant pipes before start-
ing the compressor.

Apply refrigerating machine oil over the entire flare seat surface.
* Do not apply refrigerating machine oil to the screw portions. (This will make the flare nuts more apt to loosen.)
D
Be certain to use the flare nuts those are attached to the main unit. (Use of commercially-available products may result in cracking.)
