Vacuum Mode (Option)
• Outdoor unit operation stops during Vacuum Mode, so the com-
pressor cannot operate.
• Limit vacuum mode to less than 48 hours of continuous operation.
If vacuum mode is not stopped, the system will continue to operate
with all EEVs and valves open on the non-vacuum mode termi-
nated slave outdoor units. The refrigerant will flood back to the
compressors on those non-vacuum mode terminated slave outdoor
units, which will result in poor operation, equipment malfunction
and / or compressor damage.

Vacuum Mode (Option) (Se3)
The vacuum mode can be used as an option for creating vacuum in
the system when the outdoor unit is first installed, if power is avail-
able, and if the system has already been auto addressed. Vacuum
mode enables the system to fully open all valves, and can help
speed up the evacuation process.
Vacuum mode can also be used when compressor and / or outdoor
unit parts are replaced, or when an indoor unit is added or replaced.
