•
For the refrigerant recovery work (collection of refrigerant from the pipe to the compressor),
stop the compressor before disconnecting the refrigerant pipe.
If the refrigerant pipe is disconnected while the compressor is working with the valve open, the
compressor sucks air and the refrigeration cycle is over pressurized, which may cause a burst or injury.
CAUTION
New Refrigerant Air Conditioner Installation
•
THIS AIR CONDITIONER ADOPTS THE NEW HFC REFRIGERANT (R410A) WHICH DOES NOT
DESTROY OZONE LAYER.
• The characteristics of R410A refrigerant are; easy to absorb water, oxidizing membrane or oil, and its
pressure is approx. 1.6 times higher than that of refrigerant R22. Accompanied with the new refrigerant,
refrigerating oil has also been changed. Therefore, during installation work, be sure that water, dust,
former refrigerant, or refrigerating oil does not enter the refrigerating cycle.
• To prevent charging an incorrect refrigerant and refrigerating oil, the sizes of connecting sections of
charging port of the main unit and installation tools are changed from those for the conventional
refrigerant.
• Accordingly the exclusive tools are required for the new refrigerant (R410A).
• For connecting pipes, use new and clean piping designed for R410A, and please care so that water or
dust does not enter.
To Disconnect the Appliance from Main Power Supply.
• This appliance must be connected to the main power supply by means of a switch with a contact
separation of at least 3 mm.
•
The installation fuse must be used for the power supply line of this conditioner.
•
Tighten the flare nut with a torque wrench in the specified manner.
Excessive tightening of the flare nut may cause a crack in the flare nut after a long period, which may
result in refrigerant leakage.
•
Wear heavy gloves and a long sleeve shirt during the installation work to avoid injury.
