appropriate method to open the stop valves.
(1) Gas side (Fig. 4-7)
1
Remove the cap, pull the handle toward you and rotate 1/4 turn in a counterclock-
wise direction to open.
2
Make sure that the stop valve is open completely, push in the handle and rotate
the cap back to its original position.
(2) Liquid side (Fig. 4-8)
1
Remove the cap and turn the valve rod counterclockwise as far as it will go with
the use of a 4 mm [3/16"] hexagonal wrench. Stop turning when it hits the stopper.
2
Make sure that the stop valve is open completely and rotate the cap back to its
original position.
Precautions when using the charge valve (Fig. 4-9)
Do not tighten the service port too much when installing it, otherwise, the valve core
could be deformed and become loose, causing a gas leak.
After positioning section

1
Follow ordinance of your governmental organization for technical standard
related to electrical equipment, wiring regulations and guidance of each electric
power company.

power source wire in the same conduit.)
3
Be sure to provide designated grounding work to outdoor unit.
4
Give some allowance to wiring for electrical part box of indoor and outdoor
units, because the box is sometimes removed at the time of service work.

(Transmission line to be connected with indoor unit : Terminal block TB3 for
transmission line, Other : Terminal block TB7 for centralized control)
Erroneous connection does not allow the system to operate.
8
In case to connect with the upper class controller or to conduct group operation
in different refrigerant systems, the control line for transmission is required
between the outdoor units each other.
Connect this control line between the terminal blocks for centralized control.
(2-wire line with no polarity)
When conducting group operation in different refrigerant systems without con-
necting to the upper class controller, replace the insertion of the short circuit

Additional refrigerant charge
Refrigerant for the extended piping is not included in the outdoor unit when the unit is
shipped from the factory. Therefore, charge each refrigerant piping system with addi-
tional refrigerant at the installation site. In addition, in order to carry out service, enter
the size and length of each liquid pipe and additional refrigerant charge amounts in
the spaces provided on the “Refrigerant amount” plate on the outdoor unit.
*
When the unit is stopped, charge the unit with the additional refrigerant through
the liquid stop valve after the pipe extensions and indoor units have been vacu-
umized.
When the unit is operating, add refrigerant to the gas check valve using a safety
charger. Do not add liquid refrigerant directly to the check valve.
