CAUTION
Items to Be Checked
(1) Verify the type of refrigerant used by the unit to be serviced. Refrigerant Type: R32
(2) Check the symptom exhibited by the unit to be serviced. Look in this service handbook for symptoms relating to the
refrigerant cycle.
(3) Be sure to carefully read the safety precautions at the beginning of this document.
(4) If there is a gas leak or if the remaining refrigerant is exposed to an open flame, a noxious gas hydrofluoric acid may
form. Keep workplace well ventilated.
Install new pipes immediately after removing old ones to keep moisture out of the refrigerant circuit.
Chloride in some types of refrigerants such as R22 will cause the refrigerating machine oil to deteriorate.
Necessary Tools and Materials
Prepare the following tools and materials necessary for installing and servicing the unit.
Necessary tools for use with R32 (Adaptability of tools that are for use with R407C).
1. To be used exclusively with R32 ( Not to be used if used with R22 or R407C )
2. Tools and materials that may be used with R32 with some restrictions
3. Tools and materials that are used with R410A that can also be used with R32
4. Tool and materials that must not used with R32
Tools for R32 must be handled with special care, and keep moisture and dust from entering the cycle.
