IMPORTANT! When Transporting Please Read Before Starting Be careful when picking up and moving the indoor and outdoor units. Get a partner to help, and bend your knees This air conditioning system meets strict safety and when lifting to reduce strain on your back. Sharp edges or operating standards.
• Do not leak refrigerant while piping work for an installation or re-installation, and while repairing CAUTION refrigeration parts. Handle liquid refrigerant carefully as it may cause • Do not touch the air inlet or the sharp frostbite. aluminum fins of the outdoor unit. You When Servicing may get injured.
Precautions for Installation Using New Refrigerant 1. Care regarding tubing 1-1. Process tubing Material: Use clean, dry, free of oil, refrigeration grade, seamless, phosphorous deoxidized copper tube rated for R410A only. Wall thickness shall comply with the applicable legislation. The minimal wall thickness must be in accordance with the table below.
