• Open valve B
Adjust refrigerant charge speed as 2.2 lb/minute
• Charge remaining amount of refrigerant P (lbs. (kg))
R=Q+P
• Close valve B
• Push BS3 to stop manual charging operation

may cause the refrigerant composition to change, preventing normal
operation.
• Before charging, check whether the refrigerant cylinder is equipped
with a siphon tube or not.
If a siphon tube
is equipped,
change the liquid
refrigerant with the
cylinder in upright
position.
If a siphon tube
is not equipped,
change the liquid
refrigerant with the
cylinder in upside-
down position.

accidents, so always make sure that the appropriate refrigerant
(R410A) is charged.
• Refrigerant containers must be opened slowly.
CAUTION
• When charging a system, charging over the permissible quantity
may cause liquid hammer.
• Always use protective gloves and protect your eyes when charging
refrigerant.
• When the refrigerant charging procedure is done or when pausing,
close the valve of the refrigerant tank immediately. If the tank is left
with the valve open, the amount of refrigerant which was properly
charged may get off point. More refrigerant may be charged by any
remaining pressure after the unit has stopped.
