Add 0.22oz/ft (20g/m) of
Refrigerant for piping that exceeds
50ft (15m) up to 66ft (20m)
* Caution during addition of refrigerant
Max. amount of additional refrigerant is 0.22 lbs (100g).
Charge the system accurately. Overcharging may cause serious trouble
to the compressor.
* Minimum refrigerant pipe is 6.6ft (2m).
Using pipe shorter than that may cause a malfunction of the compressor
or other components.
• The power supply shall be connected to the outdoor unit by 3 wires.
• The connecting cable between the indoor unit and outdoor unit needs to
have 4 wires. This cable provides the power for the indoor unit and the
communication signal between the outdoor unit and indoor unit.
• Consult local building codes, NEC (National Electrical Code) or CEC
(Canadian Electrical Code) for special requirements.
• The following are the electrical requirements.
