  • Page 4: Important Safety Instructions

    1. Introduction This manual concentrates on inverter-driven cooling or heat pump air conditioning units. Read this manual carefully before installation. This manual should be considered as a permanent part of the air conditioning equipment and should remain with the air conditioning equipment. 2.
  • Page 5 Take the following precautions to reduce the risk of property damage. ● Be careful that moisture, dust, or variant refrigerant compounds not enter the refrigerant cycle during installation work. Foreign matter could damage internal components or cause blockages. ● If air filters are required on this unit, do not operate the unit without the air filter set in place. If the air filter is not installed, dust may accumulate and breakdown may result.
  • Page 6 ● Do not position the condensate pipe for the indoor unit near any sanitary sewers where corrosive gases may be present. If you do, toxic gases can seep into breathable air spaces and can cause respiratory injuries. If the condensate pipe is installed incorrectly, water leakage and damage to the ceiling, floor, furniture, or other possessions may result.
  • Page 7 under pressure and never open pressurized system parts. ● Before installation is complete, make sure that the refrigerant leak test has been performed. If refrigerant gases escape into the air, turn OFF the main switch, extinguish any open flames and contact your service contractor.
  • Page 8 ● Communication cabling shall be a minimum of 18-Gauge, 2-Conductor, Stranded Copper. Shielded cable must be considered for applications and routing in areas of high EMI and other sources of potentially excessive electrical noise to reduce the potential for communication errors. When shielded cabling is applied, proper bonding and termination of the cable shield is required as per Johnson Controls guidelines.
