C
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 that are attached to the main unit.
(Use of commercially-available products may result in cracking.)

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
tightening 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
starting the compressor.
