Precautions 45°±2° For devices that use R32/R410A refrigerant • Use alkylbenzene oil (small amount) as the refrigeration oil applied to the flared sections. • Use C1220 copper phosphorus for copper and copper alloy seamless pipes, to connect the refrigerant pipes. Use refrigerant pipes with the thicknesses specified in the table below. Make sure the insides of the pipes are clean and do not contain any harmful contaminants such as sulfuric compounds, oxidants, debris, or dust. Warning: Fig. 4-1 W hen installing or relocating, or servicing the air conditioner, use only the specified refrigerant written on outdoor unit to charge the refrigerant lines.
