NOTICE
During pump down operation, stop the compressor before removing the refrigerant
piping. If the compressor is still running and the stop valve is open during pump
down, air will be sucked into the system. Compressor breakdown or damage to the
system can result due to abnormal pressure in the refrigerant cycle.
Pump down operation will extract all refrigerant from the system into the outdoor
unit.
