1. Preparation of pipe
• Use a pipe cutter to cut the copper pipe and remove burr.
Trimming tool
Copper pipe
CAUTION
• Remove burr and jagged edge will cause leakage.
• Point the side to be trimmed downwards during trimming to prevent copper chips from entering the pipe.
• Before flaring, please put on the flare nut.
• Please use exclusive tool for refrigerant R410.

CAUTION
• In case of removing flare nut of a indoor unit, first remove a nut of small diameter side, or a seal cap of big diameter side
will fly out. Free from water into the piping when working.
• Be sure to tighten the flare nut to the specfied torque with a torque wrench. If the flare nut is overtightened, the nut may
be split after a long period has passed, and may cause a refrigerant leak.
• Please be careful when bending the copper pipe.
• Screw in manually while adjusting the center.
After that, use a torque wrench to tighten the connection.

WARNING
• The naked part of the wire core should be 10mm fix it to the terminal tightly. Then try to pull the individual wire to check
if the contact is tight. Improper insertion may burn the terminal.
• Be sure to use only wire specified for the use of air-conditioner.
• Please refer to the manual for wire connection and the wiring technique should meet the standard of the electrical
installation.
• Leave some space in the connecting cord for maintenance purpose and be sure to secure it with the cord
band.
• Secure the connecting cord along the coated part of the wire using the cord band. Do not exert pressure
on the wire as this may cause overheating or fire.

3. Remove of air from the pipe and gas leakage inspection
Procedures of using vacuum pump for air removal
Remove the cap of valve core. Then, connect the charge
1
hose. Remove the cap of valve head. Connect the vacuum
pump adapter to the vacuum pump and connect the charge
hose to the adapter.
Fully tighter the "Hi" shuttle of the manifold valve and
completely unscrew the "Lo" shuttle. Run the vacuum pump
for about 10-15 minutes, then completely tighten the "Lo"
2
shuttle and switch off the vacuum pump.
• Loosen the spindle of the service valve with small
diameter by 1/4 turn and tighten the spindle immediately
after 5 to 6 seconds.
• Remove the charging hose from the service valve.
Completely unscrew the spindle of the service valve (at 2
3
places) in anticlockwise direction to allow the flow of
refrigerant (using Hexagonal Wrench key).

Tighten the cap of valve head. Check the cap's periphery
if there is any gas leakage. The task is then completed.
Gas leakage inspection
Please use gas leakage detector to check if leakage occurs at connection of Flare nut as shown
on the right.
If gas leakage occurs, further tighten the connection to stop leakage.

Wiring of the outdoor unit
Please remove the side cover for wire connection.
WARNING
• If you cannot attach the side plate due to the connection cord, please press the connecting cord in the direction to the front panel
to fix it.
• Be sure that the hooks of the side cover fixed in certainly. Otherwise water leakage may occur and this causes short circuit or
faults.
• The connecting cord should not touch to service valve and pipes. (It becomes high temperature in heating operation.)
Checking for the electric source and the voltage range
• Before installation, the power source must be checked and necessary wiring work must be completed. To make the wiring capacity
proper, use the wire gauge list below for the wiring from house distribution fuse box to the outdoor unit in consideration of the blocked
rotor current.

Investigate the power supply capacity and other electrical conditions at the installing location.
Depending on the model of room air conditioner to be installed, request the customer to make arrangements for the necessary
electrical work etc.
The electrical work includes the wiring work up the outdoor unit. In localities where electrical conditions are poor, use of a voltage
regulation is recommended.
Install outdoor for the room air conditioner within the reaching range of the line cord.

1. Operation test
• Please ensure that the air conditioner is in normal operating condition during the operation test.
• Explain to your customer the proper operation procedures as described in the user's manual.
• If the indoor unit does not operate, check to see that the connections are correct.
When the meter reaches -101KPa (-76cmHg) during pumping
• Turn on the lamp in the room where the indoor unit is installed and check the remote controller for normal operation.

• The remote controller can be placed in its holder which is fixed on wall or beam.
• To operate the remote controller at its holder, please ensure that the unit can receive signal transmitted from the controller
at the place where the holder is to be fixed. The unit will beep when signal is received from the remote controller. The signal
transmission is weaken by the fluorescent light. Therefore, during the installation of the remote control holder, please switch
