Under Ceiling Type
• Conform to the regulations of the local electric company when wiring the power supply.
Inappropriate grounding may cause electric shock.
• For the refrigerant recovery work (collection of refrigerant from the pipe to the compressor), stop the
compressor before disconnecting the refrigerant pipe.
If the refrigerant pipe is disconnected while the compressor is working with the valve open, the compressor sucks air
and the refrigeration cycle is overpressurized, which may cause a burst or injury.
• THIS AIR CONDITIONER ADOPTS THE NEW HFC REFRIGERANT (R410A) WHICH DOES NOT DESTROY
OZONE LAYER.
• The characteristics of R410A refrigerant are ; easy to absorb water, oxidizing membrane or oil, and its pressure is
approx. 1.6 times higher than that of refrigerant R22. Accompanied with the new refrigerant, refrigerating oil has also
been changed. Therefore, during installation work, be sure that water, dust, former refrigerant, or refrigerating oil does
not enter the refrigerating cycle.
• To prevent charging an incorrect refrigerant and refrigerating oil, the sizes of connecting sections of charging port of
the main unit and installation tools are changed from those for the conventional refrigerant.
• Accordingly the exclusive tools are required for the new refrigerant (R410A).
• For connecting pipes, use new and clean piping designed for R410A, and please care so that water or dust does not
enter.
• Tighten the flare nut with a torque wrench in the specified manner.
Excessive tightening of the flare nut may cause a crack in the flare nut after a long period, which may result in
refrigerant leakage.
• Wear heavy gloves during the installation work to avoid injury.
• The installation fuse must be used for the power supply line of this conditioner.
