Press BS3 to stop vacuuming mode.
17.3.2. Refrigerant recovery operation method
This should be done by a refrigerant recovery equipment. Follow the
same procedure as for vacuuming method.
18. Caution for refrigerant leaks
18.1. Introduction
The installer and system specialist shall secure safety against
leakage according to local regulations or standards. The following
standards may be applicable if local regulations are not available.
The VRV System, like other air conditioning systems, uses R410A as

Pay special attention to places, such as basements etc., where
refrigerant could stay, since refrigerant is heavier than air.

NOTE
Where a single refrigerant facility is divided into 2 entirely independent
refrigerant systems then use the amount of refrigerant with which
each separate system is charged.

Follow local code requirements.
19. Disposal requirements
Dismantling of the unit, treatment of the refrigerant, of oil and of other
parts must be done in accordance with relevant local and national
legislation.
