9. SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS WHEN SERVICING THE UNIT Model : AER522QC IMPORTANT! For your personal safety, be sure to read and understand the following precautions before servicing. WARNING Injuries can occur from burns or inhalation of toxic gas if servicing is performed while refrigerant remains in the refrigeration circuit.
9-2. Refrigerant recovery 9-2-1. Open the service valve to recover refrigerant into refrigerant recovery unit. CAUTION Refrigerant released into the air contributes to destruction of our planet's ozone layer. You should always use the refrigerant recovery unit to help protect the environment. 9-3.
Unit C Open 9-5-3. Purge air from the hose. Do this by opening the Hex wrench charging cylinder valve, then slightly loosening the connection to the narrow tube service valve. Wait AER522QC a few moments, then retighten the connection. Fig.9-3...
9-5-4. With a hex wrench, open the service valve little by little to let liquid refrigerant enter the circuit. (Figs.9-3) NOTE Write down the gradation levels on the charging cylinder before and after the charging. This allows you to calculate the charging volume. Gradation Gradation Charging...

(5) Recharging Valve • Be sure to charge the specified amount of refrigerant in liquid state using the service port of wide tube service valve. The proper amount is listed on the unit's nameplate. When the entire amount cannot be charged all at once, charge gradually while operating the unit in Cooling Operation.
10-6. In case refrigerant is leaking Never attempt to charge additional refrigerant when refrigerant has been leaking CAUTION from the unit. Follow the procedure described below to locate points of leaks and carry out repairs, then recharge the refrigerant. (1) Detecting Leaks •...

(6) Recharging Valve • Be sure to charge the specified amount of refrigerant in liquid state using the service port of wide tube service valve. The proper amount is listed on the unit's nameplate. When the entire amount cannot be charged all at once, charge gradually while operating the unit in Cooling Operation.
10-7. Charging additional refrigerant 10-7-1.When tubes are extended • Observe the proper amount of refrigerant as stated in this service manual or the installation manual that came with the indoor unit. Charge additional refrigerant in liquid state. Never charge additional refrigerant if refrigerant is leaking from the unit. Follow CAUTION instructions given in "10-6.
